Am I going to do it or not?
And all that stuff clicked in and I was like, I'm going to do it.
Not exactly.
I knew that was the best chance I had for sure of winning.
You knew you did your best.
It was so intense and like it's all connected.
So I don't really remember specific moments.
So I'm watching the screen going like, okay, I feel like I killed it, but did I touch a hand somewhere?
Did I land kind of flat and not notice it?
Is it, you know, it's so, you're so wound up.
Yeah.
And then-
Man, so everybody at the top celebrating because the score came in right away.
Really?
Like, I had won.
Boom.
NBC held the score for, like, a dramatic pause.
You didn't see it until you were on camera.
It felt like an eternity.
I was just like, and I'm watching, and they had the other athletes here, so I don't want to, like, go near them because I just, I don't know, I didn't want to look in their faces.
