Kohei Uchimura and Kenzo Shirai Reacting to McKayla Maroney on Vault

A couple of stills have surfaced of four time all-around world champion Kohei Uchimura and his young teammate, floor world champion, Kenzo Shirai.



These stills show the boys' reaction to McKayla Maroney vaulting. The first photo, the before photo, they are both standing relaxed positions as they watch, perhaps just finished up their floor final. In the second still, the boys are amazed and the normally very reserved Kohei's mouth is wide open in amazement.
