The upcoming Paris Olympics 2024 is set to welcome four new sports in its categories. Surfing, breaking, sport climbing, and skateboarding are debuting in the Olympics world. However, the internet seems to have discovered another sport that should become a part of the Olympics in the following years.

Yesterday, The Olympic Games’ official Instagram page shared a mind-boggling video of a man performing a sport called power tumbling. As the sport has not become a part of the prestigious championship yet, netizens urged the page to soon give tumbling a place in the arena.

How is power Tumbling performed?

Tumbler Aliev Tofig stunned the internet by performing a range of back and front flips. In fact, the 2022 world silver medallist did several flips in the air. In the Instagram video, he ran on a lengthy sprung track and performed incredible stunts. At first, he ran at full speed to provide his body momentum. Midway on the trunk, he began doing a series of backflips.

At one point it seemed like he would remain in the air using his tumbling prowess. However, as he reached the end of the track, he gracefully landed on the landing area, celebrating the finesse at which he was able to pull off a great tumbling show.
