Availability
Two of the eight inserts featuring this gymnast - Around[1] and Between[2] - have resurfaced on YouTube.
On New Year's Day 2023, at exactly midnight, the six remaining segments were uploaded to YouTube by Lost Media Wiki user YoshiKiller2S. Yoshi had apparently received the shorts back in late October 2022 but held on releasing them till 2023 to "start the year off with a bang."
