Loud victories and bitter defeats, the Olympic spirit and the will to win ... These moments will remain in the diaries of Rio 2016 and in people's memory forever.
But along with such important events, the most grandiose celebration of sport will go down in history and thanks to these epic cadres ... And you will see this now!
1. Meeting of two civilizations
In an instant, as the picture of Lucy Nicholson appeared in the media, the hearts of millions of people were hammered in unison. No, the reason for the touching reaction was not the rivalry between Dua Al-Gobashi (Egypt) and Kira Walkenhorst (Germany) in beach volleyball. On this amazing shot, the whole world saw a "meeting" of two civilizations and cultures.
By the way, the media wrote that the best photo from the Olympics will not be, but this frame was just the beginning ...
2. Another Sign of the World
Yes, this is another sign of peace. Two athletes, rivals in rhythmic gymnastics - Li Eun Zhu and Hong Jong-un made a joint salfi on a smartphone and cute chatted! Still believe that this news is too naive? All would be fine if these athletes were not from countries in a state of war - from North and South Korea.
3. A smile worthy of the Olympic award
That's right, this 20-year-old swimmer from China brought the spectators of the Olympics to tears ... from laughter!
Grimaces - this is her hobby! True?
Every time she learned about her results "a little late" - from the words of journalists, and her reaction was incredibly funny. Moreover, Fu Yuanhui, even on a pedestal, could not cope with emotions and repeatedly called back squalls of positive!
Yes, you just take a look!
4. To post to reporters during the pursuit of gold? Yes Easy!
This has already proved seven-time Olympic champion Usain Bolt. Jamaican sprinter is not just thwarted an ovation, but became a real Internet hero with a lot of memes!
5. Kind and Evil Michael Phelps
Swimmer Michael Phelps will go down in history not only as a 23-time winner and the most titled participant in the Olympics. His personal photo-story of these competitions is no less vivid. First, reporters caught in the frame of an angry athlete ...
... Well, users of the World Wide Web came off on this photo as soon as they could under the hashtag #PhelpsFace
When you finally learned the power of the dark side.
But that's not all ... The famous swimmer was remembered that he lost his 23rd gold medal to an opponent who all this time considered him his idol ...
... and with which Michael Phelps was photographed 8 years ago!
6. Five minutes, normal flight ...
Gymnast Simon Biles will take four gold and one bronze medals from the Olympic Games, but just look how hard she "flew" for the last major award!
7. Men cry too
Tears of the first racket of the world - Novak Djokovic from Serbia after losing to the Argentine in the first round his fans will remember forever: "This is one of the most difficult defeats in my life!"
8. Get up, get up! We must run to the finish!
It's just incredible, but it was these words that one of the other runners said when she fell and could not get up!
Journalists write about this touching story all day and commenters say. During the qualifying race for 5 km, among other athletes, Esbi d'Agostino from New Zealand and Nikki Hamblin from the USA fled.
On the 9th out of 13 circles, Nikki stumbled and fell ...
Abby was so close to the rival that the collision could not be avoided. And as a result - a dislocation of the knee.
But the Olympic spirit of the girls remained unbroken - stumbling, limping and supporting each other, runners last reached the finish line, but in the eyes of the spectators became real winners.
By the way, the organizers appreciated this friendly act of Abby and Nicky, and allowed them to perform in the finals.
Just say that after this on Saturday you do not see their race?
