If there’s any goodness left in the universe we’re going to see this video played on NBC during the summer Olympics in 2032 or 2036 when this dude is racing for gold!

I heard Xavier up until your comment while listening to it again...

And now I think we have a Laurel/Yanny situation because I hear what you're hearing too.

Watched it without sound. Read this Damion/Xavier discussion.

Watched with sound and I can pretty much hear whichever i decide to hear Damion/Xavier.

What a conundrum?

I am not sure, but usually Reddit doesn't disappoint. I am really curious what this effect might be called.

Maybe, Confirmation Bias comes closer, but I not sure.

I thought so too, but now after reading the comments and going back to watch it, it actually says "Xavier" on his backpack.

my poor ears over here thinking they were cheering "Fastest kid! Fastest kid!" which, yknow. is an absolute insane thing to cheer him with, but i'm not gonna tell 'em they can't.
