When Team USA gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik was deemed an American hero at the 2024 Paris Olympics thanks to his clutch pommel horse routine, many fans compared him to Clark Kent for myriad reasons. So, it was only fitting he would portray Superman when attending The Tonight Show.
For one, Nedoroscik became a meme before his pommel horse routine at the team competition. He wore his glasses before the routine and shut his eyes to focus before he took the stage. But, he took his glasses off once he performed, similarly to how Clark Kent removes his disguise before becoming Superman.
