What's Trending: Another symbolic icon in this year's Olympics

View descriptionShare

On What's Trending, the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics' mascots, the Phryges and Phryges, are a symbol of French history. The Phryges represent a pair of Phrygian caps, a type of hat symbolizing French liberation. Originating from 18th-century French revolutionaries, the caps have been worn since the Bastille prison storming in 1789.

 

Also, Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina captured a perfect 10 pose for an almost perfect 10 wave during the 2024 Paris Olympic games. The results produced another perfect moment, as Medina leapt from his surfboard, raised his finger aloft, and his board just managed to fly parallel to him. The photograph has spread across social media, with Brazilians celebrating Medina's progress into the final eight of the competition. Medina's Instagram post received over four million likes.
