I’ve been so amazed that Stephen became the fan favorite and darling of the Men’s Olympic Gymnastics Team this year! I kind of thought it would be Brody because he looks the most like a Ken doll come to life. They’re all really lovely, nice, attractive young men with interesting background stories, so it could have been any of them. Yes, the fact that Stephen did the last routine of the team competition really helped shape the narrative of him as the hero of their storybook ending pursuing a team medal. But I think we as a society have made nerds and nerd hobbies seem so much cooler in the past decade than they were before. And I think that is part of Stephen’s viral appeal. 😊 I love this team as a whole, including the alternates. I think they have a wonderful camaraderie and support each other so well. They were such a joy to watch 😄
@@canyonblue737-8 Do you think so? Christopher Reeves never really accomplishes anything of note as Clark Kent. Stephen is Stephen all the time - and his personality stays true. Clark Kent has to have an alter ego to accomplish his great things, as Superman. I just don't see Stephen has a nerd honestly - just a nice guy who is incredibly talented - but worked hard for his skills.
I think this is a major oversight by so many people but his coaches mentioned it about the team: Stephen on the bench brings out the best in the others too, he has one event but his support across the entire competition keeps the mental game of the entire team up
Pommel is THE hardest of all 6 men’s gymnastics disciplines. In the gym world it is affectionately known as “The Beast”. The difficulty of this routine is insane and the execution is magnificent. Congratulations 🏅
I took gymnastics as a P.E. course my sophomore year in college. I was a multisport athlete in high school and was still in great shape, but I failed miserably at gymnastics. All of the events are a LOT harder than they look. And yeah, the rings ARE harder. Just the simplest move of going up into an L-sit, where your arms are straight down by your sides is incredibly difficult and I could never do it.
I love his smile. He smiles with his entire face, not just the posed-for-camera tooth exposure which never approaches the eyes. I swear, even his hairline is smiling at 0:24. He'll go _way_ far in product licensing and endorsements, as well as commentary for gymnastics matches. He's got charisma in buckets.
I’ve watched Fallon every night for the past 3 years. This was my favorite guest he’s had on. Such a likable person. Great personality. And the fact he can solve a Rubik’s cube in 15 seconds plus be an Olympic 2x medalist is unbelievably impressive. REALLY hope he comes back for LA
Being a gymnastics fan for YEARS, seeing Stephen get all this praise has been so great to see! It was so heartbreaking when he didn’t make Tokyo and nerve wracking going through Olympic Trials this summer!
@@lauraroth6630Basically! And he didn’t hit one of the days at trials (if I’m remembering correctly). But he was basically the best chance at a medal for the men’s team and there was an “individual specialist” spot that was up for grabs but it went to another gymnast. Couldn’t complain though because the athlete selected was also a fantastic guy, but it was a heartbreaking situation all around. The rules for 2020/1 only gave each team 4 athletes plus and “individual spot” for some countries and I have to say, it was THE worst format change I’ve ever seen made. Especially on the men’s side where they have 6 events! Even the rules on how to get the individual spot were an absolute mess. Pretty sure the only guy who understood the whole mess was Jade Carey’s dad, but that’s a whole other conversation!
The facial concentration he applied on the pommel horse is the same as when he solved this cube. Amazing and his performance on the horse was my all time fave event from Paris 2024.
There is a very small percentage of people in the human population who maintain holding a smile throughout their entire conversations. This man here is in the top 1% of that small population. What a treat to watch someone like this speak and carry a glow of joy on their face from the moment they start speaking till when they stop.
I knooooow I was like, oh mate, he's gonna have sore cheeks after this. he is an absolute joy! and that "yessir" UGH. He's so (I hate calling adults this but....) he's so CUTE!
MY favorite S.N. moment was seeing him at the pommel horse right before his routine- eyes closed, breathing deeply, hands on the apparatus as the audience quieted down. I don't recall any other athlete doing that . Then he opened his eyes, transformed into PHG (Pommel Horse Guy) and NAILED his routine. I will ALWAYS remember seeing this, like I remember seeing Olga Korbut back in 1972. BRAVO, Stephen!!👏👏👏👍👍♥
I've been following Stephen since his Penn State days. I'm so happy and proud of this amazing ride he's on. It couldn't happen to a nicer or more hard-working guy. #gogglesguy
I read that Stephen's gym in Massachusetts had heavy calls to enroll kids following his peformance. I hope that swell is nationwide and inspires more men and women into gymnastics. Thank you sir. Has been fun following you since you were in college.
He seems like the nicest guy to get to know. I'm proud of him too, not just for what he did, but because he's a humble nice guy. That is what is actually important.
A gift from the universe. He's the guy folks wanted to leave at home because "he's just a pommel horse specialist". He's the MVP of the Men's Team and a global icon. Love this for him and us.
Yeah honestly, I grew up with his sisters. They’re just simply THAT wholesome and charming. Always have been! Always knew someone in that family if not all the siblings will get somewhere large someday!
He is the sweetest! Wonderful inspirational young man. I too was emotional watching him perform at the Olympics! My favorite memory of the 2024 Olympics. ☺
I remember watching by chance, and I had no idea I was holding my breath so hard! The announcers were going crazy and I felt so in awe. Well done Stephen🥇🤓🥇
My two favorite athletes at these games are Rhys McClenaghan and Stephen Nedoroscik and they're both specialists on the pommel horse and they are both champions!!!! What a treat !!!
I loved that when Stephen finished his routine Rhys gave him a hug and told him they were going to compete again in L.A. in 2028. They both seem like genuinely nice guys.
I don't know how to express the wonder of this young man other than to say he is the absolute definition of GLORY. I have never been a huge fan of sports, but his abilities in all things pommel horse and Rubik's Cube make this guy total TEAM STEVE '28...What else can this guy do that nobody else can? OMG what a gift...
During the actual competition day, when he was closing his eyes, I knew at that moment he was visualizing his routine and just blocked all the noises around him 😊 elite athletes do a lot of visualizing. I hope this will inspire more kids to get into men's gymnastics. Im surprised that China did not dominate this category
I understand I’m biased bc I love him… but genuinely an amazing interview. He’s so well spoken, great pacing, professional, personable, active listener, engages the audience etc
Steven is amazing and we're all so proud of him and all our Olympians 🇺🇸🇺🇸 💙🖤❤ 💛💚 Looks like he also has the talent to have his own talk show. Well done.👏👏👏👏 Who couldn't love this guy? ❤❤🤜🤛
Protect this puppy at all costs. Like, I don't get normally do but I really took a shine to this guy, really wishing him the best and to stay at his happiness like that! He had to do the same questions and same Rubik's cube over again but he is still enjoying his time. So lovely.
Love how his team mates celebrated Steve after his pummel horse performance. You are a wonderful, refreshing person Steve. You certainly demonstrated athletic excellence. Wishing you continued great success on all your future endeavors. ☀️
What an incredible wholesome guy, hope we see him again in 2028.
Yeah he's comin to l.a.!!!
I love how he called Jimmy “sir” 🥹🥹❤
Why would you wanna wait that long to see him again?
@@coreyhamilton53they’re talking about the Olympics
Amazing personality, amazing gymnast! Best of luck to him and his teammates in 2028!! :)
He is so adorable! He and the entire men’s gymnastics team really pulled my heartstrings, they’re so precious.
Gross
@@justinmj6586you’re weird

Stephen is as much as nerd as Christopher Reeves was when he put on a pair of glasses.
I'm not sure Olympic athlete fits the nerd category
Why do you think he's a nerd? Just curious.

Thanks for sharing that. It all looks really difficult to me. Interesting one stands out more than the others.
The rings are harder, imo
The rings tho… that’s why ring specialists have huge arms compared to other specialists
The rings are harder than pommel horse.
I took gymnastics as a P.E. course my sophomore year in college. I was a multisport athlete in high school and was still in great shape, but I failed miserably at gymnastics. All of the events are a LOT harder than they look. And yeah, the rings ARE harder. Just the simplest move of going up into an L-sit, where your arms are straight down by your sides is incredibly difficult and I could never do it.
Charming young man. Sweet, not jaded, not sounding phony or self absorbed. Refreshing difference he will go far.
I love his smile. He smiles with his entire face, not just the posed-for-camera tooth exposure which never approaches the eyes. I swear, even his hairline is smiling at 0:24.

Being a gymnastics fan for YEARS, seeing Stephen get all this praise has been so great to see! It was so heartbreaking when he didn’t make Tokyo and nerve wracking going through Olympic Trials this summer!
I'm not a huge gymnastics fan, but was he left off of the Tokyo Gymnastics team because he only does Pommel Horse?

The highlight of the Paris Olympics definitely 😁😁
Two bronze medals!
@@inalltheirgorgeouscolors8091You don't need to put an exclamation point.
@@ashleytaveras9035 I know!! I did it because I wanted to!!!!
He's more Peter Parker than Peter Parker
More like Clark Kent with the glasses.
That’s what I said!
He is Bran the Broken from GOT
Yes!

So happy the men in gymnastics are finally getting attention and it’s not all about the women’s team. Steven is such a gem!
Humble and wholesome! During the Olympics, he always praised his team!
So sweet. Love this kid. Perfect representation of his country.

I bet his EVO gym in Sarasota is signing up kids too. Brody Malone and Stephen Nedoroscik are both from that gym.
His performance was Absolutely one of the best parts of this years Olympics! What a wonderful young man he is 😮 and that rubiks cube holy crap 😮
Love him. What a sweetheart. What a talent. Wish him all the best.

Mine too and he's cute 🥰
The best of America given to the world. So inspired by this young Olympian and medalist. He is what makes this country great.
He is so incredibly likeable! Also, the whole team was amazing and did the U.S. very proud!
First time I saw him compete, i knew he was gonna be a star. He has such a charismatic personality.
He has GREAT media training, holy moly.
I think he is just being Steve.
No media training

@@rongold7719That’s the hardest training!! Glad he’s perfected it. 😊
@@rongold7719 nah the way he talks you can tell it's rehearsed/somewhat scripted

We need inspiration in men's gymnastics to inspire the next generation for LA and beyond. The Media attention is the right tools to reach the kids
He's a damn national treasure
I understand I’m biased bc I love him… but genuinely an amazing interview. He’s so well spoken, great pacing, professional, personable, active listener, engages the audience etc
I really wish the interview was longer, so they could talk more about men’s gymnastics. Stephen did a great job though.✨
He is awesome. What a nice personality besides all of his talent. He is a mechanical engineering graduate from Penn State. A focused guy for sure.
What a ridiculously adorable and talented guy!
The hero I didn't know I needed
Rubik's Cube sure looks different from the ones we had growing up. He did a great job. 15 secs is awesome!
thankssss for inviting him over..❤❤
What an outstanding young man! Congratulations!!!🎉
He's such a good human being, I love that guy
Steven is amazing and we're all so proud of him and all our Olympians 🇺🇸🇺🇸

God bless coaches in primary school who say "you can."
Without P.E. no one is telling your kids at school that they physically "can."
Truth!
This is so wholesome!
yep..
What a positive and wholesome guy
What a great guy! Congrats, Steve!
Though I'm Japanese, I'm into him. His performance was outstandingly beautiful and he's adorable. I like the way he cherishes his girlfriend.
Didn’t expect Stephen on Late Night, lol!! What a man & what a team, let’s go USA!
He's so sweet 😭❤
Goes to show how powerful it is for someone to believe in another person’s potential. His coach in Jr. year called it and he went for it full force!
Protect this puppy at all costs.

That win was so emotional and so well deserved what a great and genuine man
Stephen and Team USA made me fall in love with men's gymnastics again. Wish they were as popular as the women's!
