Simone Biles Reveals What Really Happened to Her Calf During the Olympics: ‘My Body Is Like a Ticking Time Bomb’
Biles is seen telling her coach โmy calf or something just pulled all the way,โ discussing the early injury she sustained at the start of the Paris Games
It was the moment that instilled panic in every gymnastics fan: During warm-ups ahead of the team final at the 2024 Paris Olympics, in what was set to be Simone Biles’ big comeback, she limped off the floor, trailed by the Team USA doctor.
Of course, it all ended well โ Biles pushed through her mystery calf injury to win gold in the team, all-around and vault finals, plus a silver in floor. But fans will finally get to hear the full story of what happened in the second part of Netflixโs Simone Biles: Rising, based on the new trailer that dropped on Thursday, Oct. 3.
In the middle of the first look at part two of the docuseries, Biles is seen telling her coach, โmy calf or something just pulled all the way,โ as she came off the floor mat.
The trailer then immediately cuts to Biles being bandaged up just before she competes, as a voiceover can be heard saying, โIs this a case of deja vu?โ referring to her early exit at the Tokyo Games.
