Wardrobe malfunctions happen to the best of us — "regular" folks and celebrities alike. But for those in the spotlight, sometimes fashion accidents can occur in front of a huge audience. (Remember Camila Cabello's wardrobe malfunction during the Jingle Ball, for example?)

And it's not just singers or actresses that experience wardrobe malfunctions — Olympic athletes do too. As noted by HuffPost, South Korean skater Yura Min had a major "omg" moment during her routine: while performing with her partner Alexander Gamelin, the top of her outfit began slipping from her shoulders.

There's no doubt that this would cause a panic for some people, but Yura handled it like an absolute pro. Without blinking an eye, the figure skater adjusted her arms to prevent the garment from slipping any further — all while continuing to nail her routine. Photos of the incident soon made their rounds on social media, as viewers were undoubtedly worried for Yura and Alexander.

However, even though Yura appeared to be calm, she revealed that on the inside, she was pretty much the opposite. The skater told The Detroit Free Press that she was "terrified" the entire time. "I was like, ‘Oh no!’" she added. "'If that comes undone, the whole [outfit] could just pop off.'" Luckily, they managed to finish their performance without any further malfunction taking place. SBNation reports that the skating pair received 51.97 points for their routine, and finished in ninth place out of 10 competing teams.
