A Pictoral Guide to the US Women's Gymnastics Victory 

Even knowing the results of the Olympic Women's Gymnastics team finals, I was still spellbound by the athleticism and ridiculous poise under pressure.

The Atlantic Wire captured it all in an awesome pictoral display, showing how the US won, Russia folded, and letting you relive pretty much all the greatness of Tuesday night. And they partially explain how the hell gymnastics scoring works.

To keep it simple, if you want to win, you need a score above 15 on beam and floor. You want at least a mid-15 on bars. And you want as close to 16 as possible on vault.

The greatest part of the article is the images. You need to check it out. So. Much. Greatness.
