Entertainment Paris Olympics Simone Biles

17 of the funniest responses to the Simone Biles ‘snap to attention’ meme

Poke Reporter. Updated August 9th, 2024

Gymnast Simone Biles has been one of the true megastars of the Paris Olympics, winning three golds and one silver, and contributing to one of the 2024 Games’ most iconic images.

She’s also a social media darling, and one clip of Biles in particular has really captured the meme-magination of Twitter/X users.

In the three-second clip, shared by Holly Anderson, Biles is seen stretching, chatting to someone, waiting for her heat to start. But as soon as the commentator says “first up, the balance beam”, Biles’ head snaps to attention and she looks right at the camera. Just watch it.

This has led to a whole raft of jokes over the last few days, comparing the Biles’ look to everything from That’s So Raven and The Office, to Jurassic Park and The Lord of the Rings. Oh, and toddlers and dogs when food appears.

Here are some of the best.
