PARIS, France — The U.S. Olympic Artistic Swimming team put a unique twist on an iconic dance move to help them take home the silver and make it to the podium for the first time since 2004.

NBC Olympics & Paralympics posted a video of the "legendary" moment on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The routine, set to Jackson's "Smooth Criminal," was one of three over three days, NBC says.
