Simone Biles took on the handstand challenge!
Normally, you would do a handstand and try to put on a shirt, but the Olympic gymnast showed off her skills and put a different twist on it.
Simone not only did the challenge, but she took her pants off, with her feet for it!
Tom Holland showed off his hot body as he did the handstand challenge, and he nominated Jake Gyllynhaal and Ryan Reynolds to do it as well.

Simone Biles is firing back at USA Gymnastics.
The Olympic gymnast voiced her concerns on Twitter on Saturday (March 14), her 23rd birthday.
USA Gymnastics first tweeted, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the most decorated gymnast of all time, @simonebiles! We know you will only continue to amaze us and make history!”
Simone then replied, “How about you amaze me and do the right thing… have an independent investigation.”
Simone‘s fellow Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman shared a screenshot of the exchange on Instagram, captioning it, “This. Is. AWESOME. @simonebiles I love you!!!! đź’Ş”
Aly Raisman has called out USA Gymnastics as well for how it has handled former team doctor Larry Nassar‘s years of abuse.
ICYMI, see how Simone Biles also recently stood up to toxic beauty competitions.

Simone Biles throws out the first pitch at Game 2 of the 2019 World Series held at Minute Maid Park on Wednesday (October 23) in Houston, Tex.
The Olympic gymnast did a 360 back flip before she threw the baseball to Houston Astros outfielder Jake Marisnick.
“WORLD SERIES BBY ⚾️,” Simone captioned a photo of her family on the field, all wearing jerseys for the home team.
If you didn’t know, Simone is from just outside of Houston. Unfortunately the Astros lost the second game in the World Series 12-3 to the Washington Nationals.
Earlier this month, Simone made history at the FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championships by becoming the most decorated female gymnast in history!
Simone Biles looks super happy after finishing her floor routine at the 2019 FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championships on Tuesday (October 8) in Stuttgart, Germany.
The 22-year-old gymnast made history and broke a record that night – she became the most decorated female gymnast in history.
Simone received her 21st world championship title after her team won a fifth straight world team title. Congratulations Team USA!!
This was just the first of six medal events that Simone has, so she could be taking home even more titles.
Simone also opened up about wanting to quit gymnastics.
“Sometimes I wish I would quit,” she told NBC Sports. “The other day, we walked out there, and I was like, I literally hate this feeling, and I don’t know why I keep forcing myself to do it.”
“I hate that feeling like I’m going to puke before. But, you know, we love the thrill of it,” Simone added. “Reminds me to never give up because one day I won’t have the opportunity to get that feeling.”
We see you, Simone Biles!
The U.S. Olympic gymnast performed on Balance Beam during Women’s Qualification on Day 2 of the FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championships on Saturday (October 5) in Stuttgart, Germany.
She continued making history by getting two more skills named after her into the Code of Points, which makes four total, NBC Sports reports.
She and the U.S. women’s gymnastics team finished in first place. The U.S. earned a team score of 174.205 – 5.044 points more than second-place China.
“I’m pretty pleased,” Simone said. “I feel like I have a lot of pressure being put on me. My main goal going into tonight was to not be great, but just to do well. … It’s always nerve-racking because qualifications qualifies you into everything. Waking up, it’s just like, oh gosh, what’s going to happen tonight.”
Simone‘s most recent skills were her triple-double on floor exercise and her double-double dismount off the balance beam.

Simone Biles has been called a lot of things over the course of her gymnastics career – the GOAT, a force, and a superstar, among many others.
However, the 22-year-old athlete doesn’t want to be labeled a superstar at all.
Speaking during the pre-competition press conference at the 2019 FIG Artistic Gymnastics World Championships earlier this week, she explained that the label adds an extra pressure on her.
“If I were to label myself as a superstar, it would bring more expectations on me and I would feel pressured, more in the limelight, rather than now,” Simone says.
“I just go out there and compete,” she added. “[I] try to represent Simone… not ‘Simone Biles’ whenever I go out there, because at the end of the day, I’m still a human being before I’m ‘Simone Biles, the superstar.’”
