Great Expressive Gymnast Photos

I'm the king of the world! Gymnastics is the greatest sport there is!

(Pictured: Danell Leyva at the 2012 Olympics.)

How is that even possible? I was just doing these yesterday. And every day since I was nine. Gymnastics is the worst sport in the world!

How about a spot, just one more time? Or maybe you could just stand there? Please?

(Pictured: Kyla Ross, 2012 Olympic gold medalist and multiple-time world medalist. No word on whether she's scared to try new skills for the first time, but we're guessing she's pretty good at it.)

We're in the clear. I'll just pick myself up like nothing happened.

(Pictured: World and Olympic champion Aliya Mustafina, having an off day on beam.)

No, I promise you weren't that close to the bar. You're totally fine. I'm just going to go grab some water while you do it again.

(Pictured: Aly Raisman, 2012 Olympic gold medalist, as she waited for her beam results. Raisman won a tie-break and ended up with the bronze medal.)

Or that the conditioning changed. And your coach may actually be trying to kill you.

Seriously, a washing machine could be OK here. Just give it a try.

That judge has never liked me!

(Pictured: Ri Se-Gwang of North Korea, at the 2014 worlds. He actually won vault there, so this likely wasn't a moment of frustration after all. Still, his expression was too good to pass up for this caption.)

Why is it always this song that releases the butterflies? It's like some sort of a sick joke.

(Pictured: Carly Patterson at the 2004 Olympic Trials. Patterson was the co-national champion that year and went on to win the Olympic all-around title, but at the Trials, the butterflies did indeed get her. She fell multiple times on beam, her best event, and finished third all-around.)

Or, missed out on Olympic gold. It's pretty much the same thing.

(Pictured: Viktoria Komova, after missing out on the all-around gold in 2012.)

But of course you have to wait for the judges. Don't they know you need to know your score right now? You can play it cool though.

(Pictured: Gabby Douglas, at the 2012 Olympics, before her gold-medal results were known.)

I'm going to own this one. Big time.

(Pictured: Nastia Liukin at the 2008 Olympic Trials. She did own it -- she earned a spot ont he Olympic team by placing second all-around. And then later, she won the Olympic all-around title.)

Gymnastics, once again, is the best sport in the world!
