- Olympic gymnast Simone Biles revealed she experienced a severe health scare earlier this week, stating she "almost died."
- Biles shared a photo of hospital bracelets and a monitor showing a high resting heart rate (126 bpm) on her Instagram Story on Saturday. “I’m not one to normally share things like this because I value privacy in today’s age. But almost dying wasn’t on my bingo card earlier this week,” she wrote.
- She described the experience as "one of, if not the scariest experience of my life," noting her husband, Jonathan Owens, was away for NFL training.
- While not disclosing the specific illness, Biles indicated she has been resting in bed and plans to explain more later.
- This incident follows previous public discussions by Biles about navigating health challenges, including the "twisties" during the 2021 Olympics and post-competition exhaustion.
