What Happened to Her Head?!

This is among the sports photos that look frightening when you first see it. The good news is that nothing is unsettling happening here aside from some notable talent.

This athlete looks like they’ve lost their head in this photo. Yet, all that’s actually happening is that her head is bent this far backward mid-routine. It’s bent so far back, in fact, that the photographer couldn’t even capture it from this angle. The floating effect is just the gymnast mid-jump.
