1992-2000 were the best gymnastics. Every year there was at least 4 ladies who could have won the AA. Romania, Russia and the US had some good battles. I miss those years.
2010-2016
Dominique’s beam was impressive how she continued without a bobble after the fall. A lot of respect to her.
And that landing!
@@SarahJames-gv2td landing was everything
at that point, I think it'd be safer to stop. not gonna win a medal, and balance can be off after a fall to the head, risking further injury. but it was impressive.
More impressive than anything I’ve ever done in my life
When Marta put her hand on her neck Dom said she was digging her nails I'm her neck.they awful people allegedly
This class of gymnasts belongs in the Hall of Fame
🐐💯
I miss these kinds of gymnasts
Shannon Miller is my favorite gymnast. I could watch her all day. Now she’s grown up and married! ❤️
And a mother of 2. Even after fighting (and beating Thank The Lord) ovarian cancer. She is a true winner and fighter in every sense of the words.
Oh yea shes nearly 50 now, right? Haha she is my favorite gymnast. I never knew how decorated she was I just always watched the olympics and olympic trials as a kid and she was my favorite. Guess I had an eye for gymnastic talent at 7.
@@Janellabelle She's still one of the most decorated gymnasts in history. Read her bio on Google; She has 59 international medals, more than half gold. 49 national medals >half gold. 7 Olymic medals. Etc, etc. First back to back AA Olympics Gold medalist.
Ps. She's 44. Lol 😂
@@donaldholderdoc2910 She was never a back to back AA Olympic Gold Medalist.... she never won Olympic AA Gold at all..... she won silver in Barcelona 1992 & silver in Atlanta 1996, AA Competitions & didnt make the team in 2000 after trying to make a comeback. Mary Lou was the first American to win AA Gold in the 1984 Olympics & the next American was Carly Patterson in 2004.....
Mary Lou Retton
Carly Patterson
Nastia Liukin
Gabrielle Douglas
Simone Biles
Sunisa Lee
That's the list of American women who have won AA at the Olympics. Not sure how you ever thought Shannon won even 1, much less being back to back when, had Simone competed, shed have been the first female gymnast to win back to back AA gold at the Olympics.
She is one of the most highly decorated gymnasts in the world so we dont need to add medals she never won.
@@heathermiller76 oops. Thanks. I was wrong after doing some research. I thought she had won Gold. She's still a fantastic athlete. And a great commentator.
Miller's beam was outstanding! She looked in total control from start to finish.
She was solid as a rock!!!
It really was. She was so smooth.
Really the best of the night 👏
Must say, I always love watching Gogean too
The beam queen!
Really miss theses girls. They were so amazing at that time!!. 😍👏🏻👏🏻
They still are considered quite amazing to the many who aren't impressed with today's gymnastics. Today's gymnasts may have difficult tricks, but so much of the sport is sacrificed. Difficulty has replaced pointed toes, solid form, straight legs, straight arms, artistry. Biles is lovely, but she hops out of bounds on floor, wobbles and flops on wolf turns, and her legs come apart on UBs. I much prefer the old artistic gymnastics when details mattered.
Biles is a sloppy troll
Dominique Dawes has had at least 3 standing ovations that I remember since I've been following her career.
She really is and was an amazing athlete and disciplined focus. Her work always gives me chills.
I also loved Shannon Miller she is very artistic and graceful in her work.
Love the magnificent 7
This is wonderful to see this broadcast from Britain. The NBC feed was constantly having the commentary spoken over.
Agreed :)
The NBC feed also showed all 8 performances for all four events.
kras118 so did BBC. This is a condensed version.
@@antwonnyy ooh I'll have to look for it! I'd love to see it. I tend to like BBC commentary
Commentary *is* speaking so I don’t understand this comment 🥴
Was so glad to see this fantastic beam result in 1996- bravo, Shannon!
Shannon was such a great gymnast. She was solid as a rock on that beam routine. You should watch the ‘96 National Championship. She has a horrible beam performance but was then nearly perfect on the other three rotations, just solid as a rock. She was also a quiet, humble, and very sweet young lady. I love that she won this gold on beam...so deserving.
Was she solid as a rock?
Agreed. And the balance beam is the toughest rotation of all.
@@scook5599 and she was SOLID AS A ROCK!!!
Agree! She was a rarity that had the difficulty and was also elegant and polished. She was meticulous and detailed. Love her!
@@uncchristine99 And...... SHE WAS SOLID AS A ROCK!!!!
Shannon and Lilia were unbelievable!!!
Shannon was SOLID As a ROCK!
@I. Wynn Wynn Dominique Dawes
No sé por qué pero todas me parecen absolutamente increíbles!!!!!!
If only Lillia didn’t wobble her score would have been better
@@tomgallowitzLilia probably would’ve over taken Shannon if she didn’t wobble on her somersault and her dismount. It would’ve still been very close though because Lilia’s dismount was not as well executed as Shannon’s even if she didn’t have to make her adjustments. But that’s what the Olympics is about. You have to be at your best when it mattered most and Shannon was certainly that.
My fav Olympics of all time
Overwhelming joy to see Shannon Miller win that BB gold in 96. She revolutionized womens gymnastics in the USA. Her difficulty on beam and bars were especially impressive. As was her consistency. It was Shannon who in Barcelona led that team with clutch routines time after time. And it was Shannon who narrowly lost the All-Around in a field that included more than 15 women who could have won. You don't see that post 2000. A true pioneer. Thanks for your service to the country, Shannon!
And she was the back to back world champion 1993 - 1994. That was also huge back in the day.
Lilia was fantastic, just that tiny bobble. Well deserved for Shannon.
Yes, Shannon was as solid as a ROCK!
Lilia had 2 wobbles and a step on her dismount.
@@enchantedella6495 yes, I think she was overscored. She should have been a few hundredths higher than Gina but not nearly as close to Shannon as she was
I remember watching Dominique at these games. She was so poised and graceful even after the fall. Her BB especially was gorgeous. I always loved her mount!👀🌹💖
The muscles on that little tiny thing (DM) are amazing!
i really wish gymnasts took more ballet classes (i'm a ballet dancer and can do a full on a tramp, basic tumbling like side/front aerials, back tucks, step outs, etc). i think the cross training would benefit most of them in amazing ways. much cleaner lines and body understanding when it's nuanced like in dance.
like you can tell the russian gymnasts take ballet. their muscles are more evenly developed, and their lines are much cleaner.
@@KC-fi2or agreed :)
@QPHashSS77 almost every other country in the world cross trains their gymnasts in ballet. same with figure skating. why? because it's a deeper understanding of the body. why'd you delete you other comment? true colors.
Shut up. Not every gymnast is going to starve themselves to look thin.
@@BalletBullet1 literally no one- not one single solitary person said anything about the gymnasts' size. OP was CORRECTLY stating that ballerinas know tons of tumbling and leaps, and that cross-training more in ballet would greatly benefit American gymnasts in many ways.
It appears that you were too busy looking for a reason to be offended to actually read and grasp what OP was saying.
Gymnastics used to be so elegant
@QPHashSS77 i brought sexy back
Simone is elegant! ...I mean gymnastics is still elegant.
@@0xTRellyx0 no way. Simone is powerful, not elegant.
@@punkrockstar I agree. Simone is great but lacks polish and elegance! She’s a tumblr
It is STILL elegant. Just because it has evolved and changed (as athletes have been allowed to actually be ATHLETES instead of starved little girls) doesn’t mean the elegance has disappeared. You just choose to ignore it and live in the past.
miller was one of the last to have difficulty and the graceful ballet line so sadly lacking in todays tumbling team USA
Nastia Liukin
@@jjh2456 nasti didn’t have loads of difficulty other than on bars
@@nathanielhalls1893 for her time she did. Her scores reflected that.
Gogean's beam dismount was probably the better as far as form. AND Galiyeva was a good beam worker, no doubt, despite the fall. Also, Amanar on floor was very good. Good height too in air. I like Pokopayeva's spin on floor.
I loved Kim Zmeskal, Dominique Moceanu, Shannon Miller and Dominique Dawes. Kim is not here and Dominique Dawes was underrated! She was a beautiful gymnast and totally flawless!
Que irónico que un error en la viga, por segunda vez, le costó una medalla a Galyeva; en 1992, el error de Gutsu, le costó concursar en All Around, en 1996, le costó la medallla de oro.
It’s so crazy how how the skills are so different
I miss floor routines with an equal balance of tumbling and dance choreography.
They should do the cheer style gymnastics in college and only in college so I don’t have to watch haha
Lillia's toes!!! So good!
It's her ankles that allow her 'toe point' to happen. But def beautiful
reminds me of Laschenova. she too, had exquisite feet IMO
Gestul specific Martei Karoly de a lua fetele de după gât și a le strânge, foarte urât. Îl făcea și în România.😔
Best performens in my life. Very good.
Man! Simona amanar’s Floor routine music sounds so familiar all I can just think about is blues clues
1:15 Dominique was very strong to continue and finish that routine
And Martha received her by padding her REALLY not softly on the back of her neck!! 😳
Abuse??
She finished with dignity.
So difficult to watch.
Amanar es increíble!!!!!!!
Can't believe noone stopped and checked if Dominiq was OK after she landed on her head.
They absolutely should have.
Fantastic
Excellent commentary!
26:47 look at her TOES. She is so elegant, no one stood a chance.
AND..... she was SOLID as a ROCK!
@@JB-sg1vy A True Star 🌟
That judge at 21:05 is like the ghost of gymnastics past. I see her EVERYWHERE!
If these girls were paid according to dedication and skill their salary would fittingly dwarf those of NFL and NBA counterparts.
Lila una artista!!!!!!
Did Amanar do 4 tumbling passes in this routine????
Yes
Anyone else notice that Kochetkova used different music for her floor routine? She used her older routine in TF and AA. Do you think maybe it's because this newer music wasn't as loud and might have been drowned out by the crowd?
She typically used the more dramatic music for finals in late '95/'96.
Shannon Miller is elegant and very talented. She is a natural blonde. Thats why she is so pale.. Can't imagine how hard this was in front of so many people but she was also extremely shy. But she definitely wanted this. They were the best team ever. All talented
Is just heartbreaking how much these gymnast practice for a 1 to three minute performance. or vault a few seconds. And then they can fall after they’ve done these routines over and over and over and over again
Track athletes train just as much and the 100 meter dash is over in literally 10 seconds
Well deserved Queen Lilia
All those flash bulbs popping off. I mean that can cost medals. They said do not use them but people did anyway esp with Moceanu.
Moceanu told Nadia was ' all she saw was light' after the event.
Oh yes, I remember that stumble by Dominique moceanu.
I STILL GET NERVOUS on that beam routine! STICK THAT FULL TWISTING DOUBLE YESSS!
La gimnasia es el.mejor deporte del.mundo amo la gimnasia lo que le sucedió a Dominique pudo haber quedado inbalida y no es normal tanta flacura
Khorkina is always so graceful
Awesome Dawesome !!
Великолепная спортсменка! По моему, такие сложные упражнения сейчас никто не делает! Как она удержалась и дальше выполнила всё блестяще! Браво! Доминик! Все девочки супер!
Best Bars Routine EVER!
Just wonder what kind of damage was done to Dominique's body and neck after that fall.
Gymnasts endure falls like that throughout their life, even as little kids. Luckily at that age they are pretty resilient - I'm sure it subluxated a vertebra or 2 but also, considering all the other abuse their body gets over the years it really wasn't that bad. Take it from someone who coached competitively for 15 years :)
@@magicianamongthespirits622 And some gymnasts were paralyzed after falls on the heads. The point is that no one even bothered to examine her, and they undeniably should have. Not really cool to be so dismissive of child neglect
I miss gymnasts showing off different acrobatic skills in between tumbling passes on floor in addition to compulsory turns and leaps.
Atlanta 1996
Ouch domi, I’m surprised she got up okay
România -aur la sărituri
Rusia-aur la paralele
SUA -aur la bârnă
Ucraina -aur la sol
Superb!
This was the prime era of gymnastics THE aa was a fight 3 or 4 girls could’ve won it. But now we know who’s going to win it every year
DMs performance on the beam was even more impressive than Kerri's.She had to have suffered a full blown concussion yet she got up and continued an otherwise flawless routine. Had she stumbled around and came back for a second beam routine ala Kerri. The press would have given DM All the attention
I still think Moceanu was underscored in the floor final.
Yeah. She was robbed!
an USA gymnastics underscored in a stadium full with USA people?
No way ☠️ She should have been lower. Low diffculty, and the execution was not superb.
She had a 9,9 start value. She was overscored
@@enchantedella6495 No she was from 10.00 as were they all in that EF.
I stumbled upon this video while trying to figure out who my first boyhood crush was 😂 turns out it was Podkapayeva.
Sad story I once turned a girl that fancied me down back in the day and used her name and she was like who tf is she and i said an Olympic Gymnast lucky to say i snapped out of it eventually and decided to go out with her 😂 don't think she was coming over to Birmingham UK anytime soon 🙊 sad times as a child.
HOW was Dominique not in this final? Her beam routine was amazing.
Sorry wrong video for me
Compulsory score I believe is why.
Tolle Leistung von allen und der Schwebebalken war für mich immer ein Graus 😮😬😬 und daher meinen absoluten Respekt 👍👍wie sie diese Kür trotz kleiner Patzer gemeistert hat, wirklich toll.
Haben es ja nochmal in Zeitlupe gezeigt und das tat echt weh, sie ist so böse mit dem Kopf aufgekommen, man das tat echt weh nur vom zusehen😢😔hoffe es ist alles gut bei ihr🍀
Ich muß echt sagen, das sie das ganz professionell gemeistert hat, wirklich toll👍👍
🥰👍❤️
Poor Rosaliya, she was directly to gold! That fail.....
FX=floor exercise
BB=balance beam
UB=uneven [parallel] bar
EF = ? Event Final?
Yep. ef means event final
SHANNON DID THAT!
She was solid as a rock!
at 2:39 -- watch how Marta grabs Dominique by the neck- she fakes comforting her, but watch you will see her pinching her neck/awful...
Yep definitely a part of the abuse she went public about
Oh please....🙄
Things might have been a lot different in 2000 if they had put Shannon on the team. I mean I get she pulled out if trials but she would have been a serious beam contender again with her mental ability. The 2000 team was such a disaster, so disappointing!
She scored a 9.287 at Trials on beam and hit her routine. She was way past her prime and not a contender on anything at that point. She would have made no difference on the team, but she would have gotten a belated Team Bronze like the others after China's DQ.
@@milkybum6339 But.... she was solid as a rock!
They really needed Brandy Johnson and Kim Zmeskal on the 2000 team too. And Kristie Phillips!
YA! Shannon was solid as a rock and shoulda been on the 2000 team. She coulda been the ROCK for the team!
@@JB-sg1vy Right a team of a bunch of 25-28 year old women who had been retired for years would have done just awesome. Are you crazy. Shannon is the only one of those who maybe wouldn't have totally embarased themselves at the Games by then. If that were your team there is no way they even get the team bronze after China's DQ which is now Spain's.
Has anyone else noticed how the gymnasts back then were smaller and more petite and graceful. The newer ones tend to be stockier and perform with more power than grace. They’re still talented just wondering what changed
Probably less starvation and harsh coaching. But the open ended scoring of today has changed the routines completely, where harder skills mean higher scores, so the beauty and grace aren't really given much weight anymore. I do wish we could get a good mix of the 2 though.
That's exactly what I was getting at in my comment.. like Katelyn ohashi always has to have her leotard up her ass and showing off and smashing her private parts into the floor you know these gymnasts from the 90s didn't do that. I think the ones today try to do it for men's attention more than the routines and trying to win the gymnastics.. the 90's girls were the best because they did it because they wanted to win not because they were trying to get men to look at their leotards up their ass
@@feehasfleas3291 😂😂😂
The loss of compulsories contributed a bit to that; less body mastery in terms of grace and fluidity was required. Also, minimum age requirements went up.
@@HB-ey2dkI’m sure there’s a happy medium. Just haven’t reached it.
Красотка Хоркина! Лучшая !!!
There's way better Russian gymnast than her
The way that coach had her hand wrapped around the back of her neck really threw up red flag feels.
Dominique mentioned her Marta’s fingernail were dug into her neck. She wrote a book several years later and she was mistreated terribly by her coaches and her father.
Moceanu’s floor is iconic
1996 год😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔
what was podkopayeva looking at before her dismount? lol
The timer
The timer. They have a time clock in the corner of the score she wanted to see if she was about to be overtimed or undertimes
Shannon's "unusual difficult move" is called "The Miller".
…which they literally said shortly after.
@@timothy_f yea but they practically whisper it too long after, like it was a secret, when she was onto her dismount by then.
It’s not in the COP. It was submitted incorrectly and as a result never was named for her
Me encantó la Ucraniana!!!
You BETTER FRONT TUMBLE! LILIA! DAAAANG!
!!!!...LILIA PODKOPAYEVA IS THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE....!!!
Marta with the worst bleach job
0:51 Dominique !!!
Dominique could have won the gold on balance beam
Хоркина лучше всех
Why the manager kiss to Lilian en her mouth???? He did twice. ...I don't uderstand. Somebody can tell me??
Браво Лиля Подкопаева! великолепная гимнастка,никто не ожидал ее победы.Слава Украине!
As soon as I saw her fall on her head, I would've stopped her right there and seen if she okay prior to proceeding.
Do the announcers in the stadium always give so many factoids about the gymnasts?
Galiyeva has one of the prettiest faces ive ever seen in my opinion, so pretty.
More like a poker face... lol. Yikes
Что , за бабочки? Невероятно, что они могут делать! Восхищение !
La dominic era la mejor después mejor o igual a la shannon miller
1:15
Marta is so fake, pissed of at Dominique then a fake smile in front of the cameras. All she cared about was medals. Marta and Bela should be in jail!!
I saw that. Not an OUNCE of concern.
Marta looked like a wicked witch.
This is what being a gymnast was all about.. they were professional they did their routines and they didn't show off and have their leotards up their ass like Katelyn ohashi..these people were
really professional and we're really wonderful and I miss gymnasts like these girls..
Тут Хоркина ещё мясистенькая и попа есть, а потом вообще скелет, смотреть неприятно...

Moceanu had 0 business in this fx final. Just facts.
i think kerry was supposed to be in the final and moceanu took her place because of the injury. even though shannon had trouble with the dlo i would have let shannon take that spot even though she got the vault replacement spot which didn't go well either. moceanu was very over-hyped and never lived up to the faux sensation
@@SonOfAGun1814 No, Moceanu got in thru quals. Dawes got Strug's spot. That's the crazy part. The idea of Dawes not being in that final is utterly ridiculous, but it was a byproduct of compulsories. Moceanu literally mounted w Dawes' dismount on fx. A lot of ppl loved compulsories because they see these ATHLETES as dancing little girls who can tumble, but this was a glaring example of why they should never have counted toward event finals. It's almost insulting to the rest of the field that Moceanu was in a final w them and their level of tumbling.
@@brandonbrown1916 o ok, it's been a minute lol, i just presumed dawes made it in on her own merit because her and kerry were most deserved to make that final of all the usa ladies for sure. now i want to go watch 96 compulseries and qualifications
@@SonOfAGun1814 yea, you'd think Dawes made it in based on tumbling, right? Lol. Yea, compulsories certainly favored gymnasts born w the nicest lines and most flexibility, but that's the problem with '1 size fits all' in anything.
Jason Bourne She has an error on one of her tumbling passes in qualifying. That’s what cost her the spot otherwise she would have placed ahead of DM.
Dawes should have gotten silver on floor. Amanar was a good tumbler but choreography was hard to watch.
Gina gigean it’s not a beautiful routine
29:27 looser lol
I thought the Russians were cold until the gala.
well they could not have been to cold as it was July and they were in Atlanta in summer
SIMONA WAS BETTER THAN THAT LILIA, IM MAD
Ужас, головой о бревно!
