bars collapse at gymnastics High School meet

Mac Niles is one psychologically tough gymnast!

Mikaela “mac” Niles from Kamiakin had the bars collapses while she was winding up for dismount at a High School gymnastics meet in Washington State.

But as soon as the equipment was put back up, Niles would re-chalk her hands and get right back on the bars…the equipment would hold up this time…she does a nice double somersault on the dismount…and she sticks it…that’s good for a 9.05 and 1st place in the bars.

Niles would go on to take the all-around title as well…and that would help the Braves to the overall team title.

I hope someone shows Mac the famous bars collapse video clip of legend Ludmilla Tourischeva.

Thanks Michael.
