Swimming coach Dean Boxall is going viral for his spectacular reaction to Australia’s Ariarne Titmus winning gold. If Inside Out was filmed in my head, he definitely would be up in there alongside Tiffany ‘New York’ Pollard, Dwight Schrute and one of those Pikmin characters for sure.
ICYMI: The Olympic Games Paris 2024 has just kicked off, and Australia is off to a stellar start with three gold and two silver medals in the bag.
One of the amazing athletes to score us first place in the medal tally is Ariarne Titmus, who swam into glory at Paris’ 400m Freestyle race.
Following her triumphant swim, swimming coach Dean Boxall did what all Aussies did when she smacked that pool’s wall for gold.
In the words of mother Britney Spears and Will.i.am: We screamed, we shout(ed) and let it all out!
But as we screamed for joy at home, it was Boxall who personified what we all felt.
In the lead-up to Titmus’ gold, Boxall was seen jumping up and down a spectator’s box, yelling out while chewing a piece of gum.
As he moves around, yelling for the Aussie swimmer to secure the bag, other patrons can be seen reacting to his cheerleading ways.
When the Aussie finally nabs first place, Boxall is seen cheerfully pacing up and down the bleachers with his fists in the air, looking for high-fives and hugging fellow spectators!
Although I’d argue that it was definitely more tame than his 2021 celebration, you can’t deny he made an impact on his fellow viewers.
You can peep Boxall’s sensational reaction below:
Although we frothed Boxall’s celebration, some punters’ were sad it wasn’t as enthusiastic as his 2021 reaction.
I was expecting the Aussie swim coach to go ballistic like he did in the last Olympics. #Paris2024 pic.twitter.com/eZr6YlvULS

Ariarne Titmus defends her women's 400m freestyle crown👑

Sadly no over the top celebration this time from Dean Boxall:(https://t.co/WvCmGPwxSd pic.twitter.com/1t0NIEmN4o
The only sad thing about Ariarne Titmus' win in the women's 400m freestyle race at #Paris2024 was the relatively muted celebration from her coach Dean Boxall.

Those theatrics from Tokyo were the highlight of the event three years ago.#Olympics pic.twitter.com/DW95LJoFIu
You see, Boxall first sent the internet into a tizzy during the Tokyo Games for his ‘yuuuuuuugeee, chaotic, superb, hilarious, artistic reaction to Titmus’ victory in the 400m Freestyle comp.
But honestly, judging by this lady’s reaction to Boxall, I reckon he went cray cray IRL when Titmus won!
Can’t wait for someone to lip-read what he said that caused the normies to react that way.
