I can't even imagine how much pain she had or if she felt like being punished by death sentence. It was her LIFE, her breath, the only thing she ever loves that much. It is like telling a painter that is not gonna be able to paint anymore, or telling a writer not to write anymore. I could feel the sadness and this really happened in real life, about 20-25 years ago. It's not that simple.
@@davegeorge4757 If you stop to think a little this isn't dramatic. Tonya started skating when she was 3, didn't had high school much less opportunity to college. She's a boxer now a days cause couldn't lose media marketing and fortunes.
Georgios Mat Ok? Doesn’t mean you won’t be nervous at the actual event. You can prepare all you want, doesn’t mean you won’t be anxious and scared. She’s a young girl and this is a lot of pressure for her. And you guys don’t seem to understand that.
She didn’t have to apologize for anything if you ask me. It wasn’t her fault it was her husbands and bodyguards fault. I cry everytime i watch i tonya and think to myself and realize that this is a real story. Poor tonya. I used to ice skate for 5 years and her story will always be very relatable for me
@@welovewarner But Tonya was JEALOUS of Nancy and had CONSPIRED to have her thrown out of the competition. Imagine if someone felt jealous of you and tried to get rid of you? You wouldn't feel the same as Nancy?
@welovewarner Imagine believing Tony didn't know anything about it, and then went onto to be apart of a movie are her involvement. Tonya is human garbage
She grew up in a really unfortunate environment, with some really messed up people. Its too bad we didn't get to see her career prosper as a rags to riches story. Those guys really sent her career careening over a cliff. I hope she really didn't know. But it may be one of those things we never really know... Like JFK or 9-11. The whole thing was pretty effed up.
I think Tonya looks like Chloe Lukasiak and seems so Vulnerable! I just see a frightened and confused young women, and why were everyone always drumming into her that she had rough edges? She was fine just the way she was.
Not according to any evidence other than her lame ex husband implicating her once he had already been arrested. He said she said. If there’s not evidence, you have to try to give benefit of doubt.
I agree, Margot Robbie is too beautiful to really sell the 'redneck' look and so likeable she made her almost too sympathetic. But I still think her performance as Tonya was incredible!
This poor woman.... Just watched I, Tonya.... I know it's just a movie... She's a true American. We aren't perfect. We aren't some pretty painted picture. We all make mistakes. Just like NOBODY AROUND THE WORLD IS. And it's REDICULOUS TO BE HELD TO THOSE STANDARDS! NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE!
Everything changes when another person is put in danger. It's a sickening thing to plan and do to someone else. You can't expect others to look at one the same after something like that. It's disgusting behavior. Maybe forgive. But, certainly not forget... and according to Kerrigan, Harding never directly apologized to her. It really shows how much Harding didn't care.
@@sarahscunnin1009, there is just so much evidence pointing to Harding and her involvement. The fact that she got a plea deal is her getting off easy. Yes, she struggled in life after this. But, with all the evidence pointing to her involvement, she's lucky she didn't receive any prison time. Plus, I find it difficult to feel sorry for the person that was sending Kerrigan death threats. If all parties involved hadn't been caught, it makes me wonder how far they would have gone... what they would have been okay with doing. It's a great thing they were all caught. Harding has had a hard life after all this, but considering everything that happened, she got off easy. I see her life struggles as her sentence served for her involvement in the crime. She could've gotten so much worse, and didn't. I just can't find myself feeling sorry for her. Not after what happened. Kerrigan is the one who was the victim, not Harding. But, over 20 years later, and it almost seems like Harding was able to convince enough people that she was the victim in the whole scenario. Once you send death threats to your competition, and have much evidence against you, playing the victim should go out the window. But, for whatever reason, she's believed. Just watching her, she gives off uneasy vibes, and is inconsistent with her story over the years. She's lying, time and time again, but she had a movie put out that is sympathetic to her side, and now so many are saying she's innocent... even though it was just her opinion on what happened. I think it's too obvious that she wasn't innocent in all this. Too much evidence says otherwise. She'd be better off just to stop talking about it, because she's only keeping the light on her about the situation. Instead, she chooses to go on and on and on about it, for decades. Being inconsistent in her story, and never directly apologized to Kerrigan. She dug herself a deep hole, and she'll never get out of it. The fact that she denys her involvement, even to this day, with all her inconsistencies, and lies, is surprising. Harding made her bed, and now she's lying in it. There's just too much evidence on her involvement, for me to feel sorry about her life struggles. Not too many are willing to forgive her, but how can the world even forget, when Harding keeps bringing it up over and over again? It seems even in time, she hasn't learned from her mistakes.

I would like to see yall report your ex husband who has beaten you before and is a life threat to you, while trying to focus on your practicing and going to the fucking Olympics
She 100% was in on it. All these people saying it was her body guard and ex do you really not think they brought it up to her? Or talked to her about it? Or anything of the sort? Like, actually delusional.
I mean, this was the 80s-90s. Wouldn’t be the first time a man did some horrible shit and didn’t tell his woman , the way he used to beat her, have no respect for her, talk down to her, which is all proven, it’s not hard for some to believe that they only told her bits and pieces or didn’t tell her much at all in an attempt to “keep the woman out of the mens business” . Plus the perpetrators said the plan changed many times, the fat dude that organized it all literally asked them to cut that girls Achilles. I don’t actually think Tonya would have wanted all that to happen. I don’t believe a woman would have taken it that far, call me biased but.
Man if you could be a fly on the wall listening to Tonya and her husband discussing this? How did the husband know Nancy was Tonya's immediate rival? How did he know exactly where Nancy would be at that exact time, that day? He knew her exact schedule?? How? How could he hide all these plans from his wife?? Then hit man guy turns around and said it was Tonya's plan all along.
1. they were rivals for yeaaaars and the whole world knew that 2. he knew where she was bcs she was training every day for hours 3. they had already divorced by that time, tho still spent time together and lived together. tonya was also training for hours and focused on that, so he couldve hid it pretty easily 4. and hitman said he never met tonya and she never told him to do anything so he doesnt know if she was involved
Yo she said she is responsible of not reporting what she heard about it. That was her involvement...choosing not to say what she knew and she knew she didn’t do it, and she knew who did. She failed to make that known until the case was fully released...
The smiles while she is apologizing denotes that she is lying. The parts where she says she wants to be in the olympic, there she is serious, because it is the true. She had to read it, she keeps reading wrong, that is because she is forced to say these things, but doesn´t feel any of them, only the part that she wants to be in the Olympics.
Sometimes people smile in bad situations as a defense mechanism. It happened to me many times in life, I wouldnt do something, someone would accuse me, I would get so pissed and shitty feeling that my first reaction is to smile. Its not a happy smile, or ''Uh im lying haha'' smile, its a '' im in distress and I dont know how to deal with it'' smile that you cant control.
Of course she was behind it. Why are people even asking this?! She stood to benifit, her friends carried it out. Common sense people. She's a poor sportsman. Very immature. Somethings wrong with her.
Exactly. To quote, at the rink: "So when you going to do this thing?" Tonya Harding is physcotic. One statement, apology, let it wash away the little girl hate of her mother, the WORLD will be a better place. @@joewhitehead3

She brought it all upon herself, unfortunately. Her bodyguard Shawn Eckherdt told investigators that attacking Nancy was her idea, and I believe him.
Her reading seems fine to me. Any nervous person publicly reading something of this magnitude would have hiccups.

She said she never directly apologized to her.
Owen Martin she did here’s the video ua-cam.com/video/7ZDcaO58-fg/v-deo.html
She did apologize to her face to face.
bc why should she apologize for something she didn't do?

comparing Tonya Harding to Chloe Lukasiak is pretty crazy ngl
She should claim damages to US television / media / prosecutors that they ruined her career!!!!
think you could move the watermark instead of tainting the whole video??
Didn't she use money from skating to fund the assult?
