Kevin Berlin not only became the first diver in the 2019 Pan American games but also went viral thanks to his statements about laziness.

Kevin Berlín, a 18-year-old from Veracruz, has just won two gold medals in 10-meter diving at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima.

Beating the Mexican two-time champion Ivan “El Pollo” Garcia, Kevin has become the next promise of the sport at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

But apparently it has taken more work to overcome the most important thing for an athlete, laziness.

Despite the discipline that a high-performance athlete must have, Kevin Berlin told reporters that he is a very lazy person and that he does not understand why they say that lazy people cannot achieve something:

“If I’m lazy, they have to be dragging me, they have to be telling me what to do. The truth is I am one of those who tell you five and I say “I do three but I do them well”

Kevin Berlin assured that he had always dreamed of going to an Olympic Games but never thought they would be those of Tokyo because his lack of constancy was the most criticized.

The story of Kevin and his laziness became so viral that the #TodosSomosKevin hashtag immediately became popular where they started sharing memes about it.
