    The 2024 Paris Olympics haven’t started yet, but people on the internet are already having fun ahead of the Games. But especially Canadian diver Molly Carlson.

    The 25-year-old from Montreal is not competing at this year’s Summer Olympics, despite winning gold in the 20-meter event at the 2023 World Aquatics High Diving World Cup and two silver medals in the same event at world championships in 2023 and 2024.

    She’s a star in the cliff diving world and finished first in the 2024 Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series in Athens in May. But according to her TikTok account — she has 3.8 million followers and documents her diving journey — she’ll still be in Paris this summer as a content creator.

    Carlson’s latest video as of Wednesday afternoon is amazing and hilarious, as she reimagines and recreates various Olympic sports — from boxing to soccer to track hurdles — as if they took place on a diving board or platform. Just watch:

    This would be dramatic 🤪🏆 #ParisOlympics

    While the gymnastics balance beam and noodle fencing were great, Carlson’s impression of archery was incredible.
