The photos of artistic swimming from the 2024 Paris Olympics are gorgeous.
There's something to be said about Olympic swimmers. They have insane breath control and magical endurance that somehow never fails to blow my mind. (These athletes also have more skill in their left pink toes than I do in my whole body. So, there's that.)
I know everyone rightfully goes wild for swimmers like Katie Ledecky and Torri Huske. But the women who can swim upside down and basically become top-tier acrobatic performers while engulfed in water deserve a ton of praise.
Here are 10 amazing photos of artistic swimmers totally rocking it at the Olympics:
