They’re the best athletes in the world. But even Olympians can be distracted by rapidly moving objects. 

Please understand, this isn’t meant to poke fun at the Olympians. I have too much respect for people who can master a sport to that level of prestige (and any one of them can kick my butt, let’s be honest). But these pictures are just so freaking funny! Maybe because they humanize the athletes. Or further convince us of their superhumanness…


Dude, that’s a freaky face to make at a Ping Pong ball. But it’s cool, ‘cuz he’s a freaking Olympian![via Buzzfeed]

Which one of these pictures is your favorite? Do you like watching the Ping Pong rounds in the Olympics?
