00:00Here I am in the whole country celebrating the double gold win of the Filipino gymnast, Carlos Yuloy.

00:08Yes! Congratulations!

00:10Oh my! I'm so proud!

00:14But there are also a lot of people who are curious.

00:16Who was Caloy before he became the Olympic champion?

00:19Who was he? Well, I know who can answer that.

00:23Ate Sue, this is his grandfather, Lolo Boy,

00:26who is also a gymnast.

00:29That's right! We will be able to talk to Lolo Boy this morning

00:33because he is now in the barangay of Carlos Yuloy.

00:37And we will also give a golden surprise to his barangay.

00:41Yay!

00:42Shairan Caloy, good morning!

00:44That's Barangay Caloy!

00:45Barangay Caloy!

00:46Hi!

00:47Hello! Good morning there in the studio again.

00:49And good morning to you, Kapuso.

00:50Did you know that right here on this road,

00:53a kid's potential was discovered in gymnastics.

00:56And now, he is now a world Olympic champion.

00:59No one else but our Carlos Caloy Yuloy

01:02who won two gold medals here in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

01:06And today, we are here in Barangay 711 here in Malate, Manila.

01:10And we will visit his house that he grew up in

01:13and we will be able to be with him.

01:14Of course, no one else but his grandfather,

01:16whose potential was discovered in him when he was young.

01:19Boy, let's go inside the house. Can we go inside?

01:21Yes, you can.

01:22There, there.

01:23Good morning to you, Tai.

01:26This is Lolo Boy, his grandfather, Caloy Yulo himself.

01:31Let's sit here, Tai.

01:32I want you to tour us around this house.

01:35This is where Caloy grew up, right?

01:37Yes, this is our small house.

01:39I also want you to share,

01:42how old was Caloy when you first discovered his potential in gymnastics?

01:46Well, there was a kid who was playing in our playground

01:53every day.

01:55Yes.

01:56He was tumbling and tumbling.

01:58Then, he saw Caloy.

02:00Yes, he saw a lot of them.

02:02How old was Caloy?

02:04He was around 7 or 6 years old.

02:06Yes, that's when he really started to love tumbling.

02:09Then, one time, there was a competition here at the Rizal Memorial,

02:15which I always ask them to attend whenever there's a competition.

02:18It was a big competition.

02:21I was there with my grandchildren.

02:25Did you just watch the competition?

02:26We just watched.

02:27And Caloy was there with you?

02:29Yes, we were not allowed to enter the oval because it was still early.

02:33Yes.

02:34They were tumbling and tumbling.

02:36You can see that from the start, he was really interested in tumbling.

02:41Yes, he was tumbling and tumbling every hour.

02:43You just let him do it, right?

02:45Yes.

02:46He was tumbling and tumbling.

02:48Then, while we were waiting, he was tumbling and tumbling.

02:51I just let him do it.

02:52Did the competition start?

02:53They saw Team Philippines.

02:57They were wearing pencaks.

02:59Yes.

03:00They asked me where they were training.

03:03In the playground?

03:04Yes, in the playground.

03:05I told them that it's just here.

03:07There's no formal training yet.

03:08Yes.

03:09They told me to bring them to the gymnasium so that they can be accepted.

03:13Yes.

03:14I told them that I don't know where it is.

03:16They told me to bring them to the building.

03:18That's where it started.

03:20How many years ago did he join the competition?

03:23Before anything else, I saw a family picture of Caloy together with the Yulo family.

03:30What a beautiful family.

03:31You can see that he's with a full smile.

03:33And here, explain this to us.

03:35That's from the Asian Games.

03:3618th Asian Games.

03:382018.

03:39What a majestic shot.

03:40You can see the form, the physique of Caloy.

03:44It's a competition proper.

03:47What did he win there?

03:49He won a bronze medal.

03:50Amazing.

03:51He's the weakest.

03:52But he's still bronze.

03:55He has a place in the Asian Games.

03:57He's the weakest.

03:58He's the best in floor, vault, and pivot.

04:01Which is why he won two gold medals in the Olympics.

04:04He's the weakest here.

04:06But still, look at how beautiful this shot is.

04:08That's why it's displayed here.

04:11That's what the photographer wanted.

04:13How many years ago did he join the competition?

04:17In 2007, around November, he joined.

04:23After 4 months of training, he joined the competition.

04:28He was already 8 years old.

04:30He was already 8 years old in his first competition.

04:32He was already 7 years old in November.

04:35After training, he was already 8 years old.

04:40But in his first game, he already won something.

04:42Yes.

04:43How many medals did he win so far?

04:45How many medals did he win so far?

04:46A lot.

04:47We can't count them all.

04:48He won the most medals in the local competitions.

04:53We can't count them all.

04:54But I learned that he won over 300 medals.

04:59Comprised of gold, silver, and bronze.

05:01He won the most gold medals.

05:03Usually, what does Caloy do when he's here?

05:06When he's here in Barangay 711.

05:08He just rests.

05:10He rests.

05:11He uses his cellphone.

05:13This is his only time to rest.

05:15All his life, he's been training.

05:17And we can see how much he improved.

05:20Yes.

05:21Now, because of the Paris Olympics, we can see the results of his training.

05:24Yes.

05:25Caloy used to be quiet.

05:27But when it comes to...

05:28He just goes out for a while.

05:30He rests, uses his cellphone, and does that.

05:32Well, he deserves it.

05:33All the breaks that he does, he deserves it because...

05:35He rests during his free time.

05:37It's necessary.

05:38You're training a lot.

05:40But you need to balance.

05:41You need to rest.

05:42So that when it comes to competitions, you can do your best, right?

05:47Our Caloy Yulo is a true golden boy.

05:51And because...

05:52Ren, you're also one of the reasons why he won the Olympics.

05:55Thank you so much, father.

05:57I can't think of anything else.

05:58I can't think of anything else.

05:59Lolo boy is one of Caloy's potential.

06:02He was just a kid.
