Those are some WIDE eyes.

#9

You tell them, Brooklyn.

#8

She may be from New York, but Lia knows she speaks like a true Californian.

#7

Cody should just read Dr. Seuss for his next vlog. Who says no?

The page has since been deleted, but screenshots never die.

Nothing like a good D group workout to make you want to quit swimming.

A scene all too familiar.

#3

We know it’s hard to imagine, but Caeleb Dressel did have an “off” event.

Everything about this interaction is just… LOL.

Another amusing one was with Penny Oleksiak being at a hockey game between her home town (Toronto Maple Leafs) and the Pittsburg Penguins (the team her brother is currently playing on).
A reporter for TSN said
“Pens d-man & Toronto native Jamie Oleksiak will have plenty of friends/family in the crowd tonight including sister @OleksiakPenny “She’ll be cheering for Pittsburgh,” he said before pausing & smiling. “Well, hopefully, yeah. If not, I’ll have some words for her.”
Penny’s reply – #goleafsgo
