Olympian’s parents freak out during her performance
Their reaction while sitting in the audience is just priceless!
I think I speak for a lot of us when I say that we've been supporting our South African competitors, or maybe just watching our favourite athletes compete in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
The likes of Wade Van Niekerk bagging a Gold in the Men's 400m, Chad Le Clos and Cameron Van Der Burgh in the Men's 100m and 200m Breaststroke and Freestyle respectively, Keeling and Brittain in the rowing, the Rugby sevens, and Luvo Manyonga in the Men's Long Jump. We have a lot to be proud of.

I don't know if you're like me, but I get super engrossed, and it's the same when there's a rugby match on TV or even tennis at Wimbledon. You know how you bob and weave like it's actually you that's running through the other team's defence, or your head moves from side to side watching the tennis ball?
Well, now imagine you're a parent of one of the Olympic competitors. Can you imagine how engrossed they get?
US gymnast Aly Raisman's parents almost perform their daughter’s routine in the stands while she competes on the floor. It is the funniest thing to watch and it's super heartwarming at the same time to see the support they give their daughter.
