Simone Biles Trivia Questions

Mary Lou Retton won the individual all-around gold in 1984, earlier. So Biles was not the first.

Her biological mother struggled with addiction, so Simone and her sister were placed in foster care before her grandparents, Ron and Nellie, adopted them.

During the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she experienced the twisties, a mental block where gymnasts lose control of their body in the air, which can be dangerous.

She has two skills named after her on floor and one on vault, but none on uneven bars. The 'Biles I' and 'Biles II' are both floor moves.

She has 30 World medals, surpassing both male and female gymnasts. Her 23 golds also top the all-time list for any nationality.

She landed it in competition at the 2023 U.S. Classic, disproving the statement.

At 4'8", Simone Biles is not the shortest. Soviet gymnast Tatiana Gutsu, who won all-around gold at the 1992 Olympics, stood just 4'6" (137 cm), making her shorter.

The Biles II, a triple-twisting double backflip (triple-double), was first performed by Simone Biles at the 2019 World Championships.
