Over the years we've seen inspirational events, heartbreaking situations, and stunning videos etched in sports history forever. Of all the viral sports moments of the last five years, the following eight events were the most relished and shared of all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jose Bautista's bat flip (2015)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jose Bautista hammers go-ahead three-run shot in ALDS Game 5, delivers epic bat flip\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-UdsVO7HaJg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Toronto Blue Jays were in a heated 2015 first-round series against the Texas Rangers. One of the best hitters in baseball, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/mlb\/mlb-is-jose-bautista-too-sensitive-about-his-bat-flip-critics\/\">Jose Bautista<\/a> entered the postseason with 40 home runs. He hit the go-ahead shot in the seventh inning, punctuating it with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thescore.com\/mlb\/news\/848389\">epic bat flip<\/a> and instantly becoming an internet sensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ronda Rousey meets her kryptonite (2015)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=57iAFUzXPGk\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Entering her 2015 championship bout against underdog Holly Holm, Ronda Rousey was the <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/uncategorized\/ufc-champ-ronda-rousey-sounds-off-before-her-ufc-193-fight\/\">baddest woman<\/a> on the planet. She made a name for herself laying waste to any woman who stepped into the octagon. However, one brutal kick to Rousey's neck dropped her from the top of the\u00a0mountain, beginning the downswing of her illustrious career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Usain Bolt's Olympic smile (2016)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Men&#039;s 100m Final | Rio 2016 Replay\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4gUW1JikaxQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The fastest man alive took things to new heights at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/11-highest-paid-athletes-rio-olympics-2\/\">Usain Bolt<\/a> easily won the 100-meter dash, but it was a photo of him smiling during the race, which lasted less than 10 seconds, that went viral. Bolt went on to\u00a0win the gold medal in the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Colin Kaepernick takes a knee (2016)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Colin Kaepernick Takes a Knee for National Anthem\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bBdoDOXMWkg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Say what you want about <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/nfl\/colin-kaepernick-protest-good-thing\/\">Colin Kaepernick and his views<\/a> on politics in America. But there's no denying that when the former 49ers quarterback kneeled during the national anthem, he created a viral sports moment. Currently\u00a0out of the NFL, Kaepernick sparked outcries across the nation, including a response from the newly elected President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bryan Bickell's last goal (2017)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gotta See It: Bickell scores shootout goal in final game before retirement\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8v4_ZMfqsXM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>NHL fans didn't view the Carolina Hurricanes as a strong goal-scorer during his 10-year career. However, after being <a href=\"https:\/\/multiplesclerosisnewstoday.com\/2017\/12\/04\/brian-bickell-365-days-ms-still-fighting\/\">diagnosed with multiple sclerosis<\/a>, Bryan Bickell got a final chance in the last game of his career. The then-31-year-old had been 0-1 for shootouts. But Bickell scored his final goal, giving the Hurricanes a win against the Philadelphia Flyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bryce Harper and Hunter Strickland's brawl (2017)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bryce Harper and Hunter Strickland Beef Continues!!!!!

So, when Hunter Strickland hit him with a 98-mph fastball the All-Star right fielder lost it. Harper's fight with the San Francisco Giants pitcher turned into a melee, as both benches cleared in one of the craziest MLB brawls we've seen in a long time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fight left Giants outfielder Mike Morse with a concussion, and he took it as a sign. He told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/mlb\/columnist\/bob-nightengale\/2018\/05\/28\/hunter-strickland-bryce-harper-brawl-ended-mike-morses-career\/649387002\/\">USA Today<\/a>, &#8220;Maybe the concussion thing was God\u2019s way of saying, &#8216;It\u2019s time to take it to the house, man.

Game 1 was an epic battle, and when it came down to the final moments J.R. Smith made an all-time gaffe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the game tied, the shooting guard picked up a loose ball, but instead of calling a timeout he dribbled out the clock and sent the game into overtime. <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/nba\/lebron-james-other-athletes-looking-to-take-over-hollywood\/\">LeBron James<\/a>&#8216; reaction was one of utter shock and quickly became one of the most popular memes in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alex Ovechkin finally lifts the Cup (2018)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals lift the Stanley Cup!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZiezsZrOHAo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For years, Sidney Crosby and the Penguins spoiled Alex Ovechkin's chances of winning a Stanley Cup. The 2018 season was a different story, however. The Capitals finally exorcised their Pittsburgh demons and won the Stanley Cup over the Las Vegas Knights. It was an <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/nhl\/the-best-hockey-player-in-the-world-finally-won-the-stanley-cup-and-fans-love-his-reaction\/\">epic\u00a0final hurdle<\/a> to overcome for an NHL player who'll go down as one of the best in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What's your favorite viral moment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Out of these viral moments, which one is your favorite? We have to go with Holly Holm taking down Ronda Rousey.
