Desi Internet launches Meme Fest after Neeraj Chopra’s gold
Twitter
The 25-year-old javelin thrower claimed the title with a throw of 88.17 meters during the final round. The internet went into a frenzy after learning of Chopra’s stellar performance at the championships. Images, videos and congratulatory messages filled the timeline as proud Indians came forward to celebrate victory.
As with everything important, this occasion also became a call for the Internet to immerse itself in memes and express its emotions with the best medium to do so: memes, lots of memes.
One sentiment running high on the platform was how twenty-somethings on Twitter (or X) felt about the monumental moment. A series of memes compared them at 25 to Neeraj Chopra, who is winning gold medals for the country, leaving youngsters quite dejected and largely envious.
Internet starts a fun meme trend
The meme trend got people hooked when hundreds of iterations of the same meme started flooding the platform as people compared their 25-year-old self to Neeraj Chopra’s recent historic win in Hungary.
One of them expressed that, at the age of 25, they were worried about the headaches they experienced while Neeraj was holding gold medals.

For one thing, sleeping at 25 was more important than anything else, even though being like gold-winning Neeraj was still a dream they could fantasize about.

The legacy of the legend
Twitter
Meanwhile, Neeraj Chopra has made quite a name for himself. All kidding aside, his achievements at the age of 25 are nothing if not remarkable. The track and field athlete already has 7 gold medals to his name and 2 silver medals to boast of. In 2020, Chopra left the Indians crying with joy when he won the gold medal during the Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan.
Last year, during the World Championships in the United States, the athlete came in second place and won silver. He made a wonderful comeback in 2023 in Hungary and reclaimed his position at number 1 with a gold to his name.
