Just discovered acrobatic tap dancer Miriam LaVelle, and my jaw is on the floor. Front flips and rotational handstands in high heels. Bring back musicals with this energy please. 😭 Somehow she only made a handful of films... This is from SEVEN DAYS ASHORE (John H. Auer, 1944).

You probably know the start of this Olympic story, but do you know how it finished? This photo is of Eric Moussambani, aka 'Eric the Eel' from Equatorial Guinea, competing in the 100m Freestyle event at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, alone. Why? /1
