Just 22 Insane Figure Skating Photos That'll Make Your Eyebrows Hit the Ceiling

Alright, I'm just gonna come right out and say it: figure skating is the best damn part of the Winter Olympics. I mean, curling is definitely entertaining and man do I love watching Chloe Kim tear up the slopes, but nothing truly compares to admiring the sheer elegance that is figure skating. Each and every time I watch the sport, my jaw ends up on the damn floor because I'm so in awe of how skilled (and ballsy) the skaters are for gracefully nailing such insane tricks, all while somehow maintaining their balance on top of the slippery rink.

To honor the mega-talented figure skaters who competed in the Winter Olympics this year, I tracked down craziest photos of the athletes in action. These snapshots prove just how fearless and badass the sport really is, in case you somehow needed further evidence. Look through them below, and you'll be convinced that there's literally no gravity in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
