After bringing home two gold medals for the Philippines at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Filipino social media users can’t get enough of the “Caloy fever” as they watch the gold medalist’s winning performance.
Gymnast Carlos Yulo, who just made history after winning the second and third Olympic gold medals for the country, is creating a bigger buzz on social media after netizens humorously imitated his gymnastics stunts.
Now, everyone’s doing gymnastics at home!
Channeling my inner Carlos Yulo
Social media personality Macoy Averilla, popularly known as Macoy Dubs, hopped in the trend and channeled his “inner Carlos Yulo.”
“Gotta ace that backflip. Charet!” Macoy Dubs wrote in a caption, with his video doing stunts on a staircase.
