That breaks my heart seeing Dominique with tears in her eyes and saying "I knew I could do it...I knew I could do that vault." She had probably done it hundreds upon hundreds of times, literally, and then, when it counted the most, she fell twice. She was such an amazing young gymnast, though. It's just sad that she had to be so unhappy at that time.
I thank all the teams of the USA, my parents loved the women's gymnastic team the best! You make alot of little girls wish for the best and greatness too! I thank you from the bottom of my heart, knowing that we can," over come all challenges that come before us". Thank you to all, past and future team members! Be safe and God protect our girls too!! Sincerely, Mr. Kevin J. Gernon, New Yorker and a Proud American
Nineteen years later, where are these girls? Surely they have married. Do they studied at a university? No doubt they were excellent gymnasts. Greetings from Venezuela.
This is irritating. So much emphasis on Kerri when Dawes and Miller had already locked in the gold for USA. Yes, Strug was dramatic but Dawes had the highest optionals that night and was the only member of the team who’s scores counted every time, and Miller won compulsories. Dawes in particular, is never given credit for being the real MVP of that team with Miller.
How did Moceanu going up second to last benefit the team? Moceanu admitted she was upset because she wouldn't be the star and knew her dad would be mad. So this video was BS.
@@capriet AND HOW IS MOCEANU THE BEST VAULTER ON THE TEAM? Come on.lol Sorry that sounded meaner than I intended. I'll make it easier for you. She never made an EF on vault at worlds. She was never a national champion on vault. She didn't have the best score on vault at any time during her senior career at Nationals. There was no reason for her to be second to last on vault. I'm surprised Hill wasn't whining about Dawes going up. MLT even said in an interview that certain coaches made a decision to not complain when their gymnasts were sent up early in the line up for the sake of the team. Only 2 members of that US team made EF on vault at a worlds or Olympics. Shannon Miller and Kerri Strug. Shannon had a broken wrist in 96 so she did well for someone with a broken wrist. Kerri's vault was gross ugly but she was consistent and if Dawes hit which was a big if because she choked on vault quite a few times she could have a case but Moceanu had NO case for being sent up second to last on vault. Bela insisted she be in that position because he knew if they won that would probably be the place the win was clinched and he wanted her to be the star.

oh my gosh I loved that army routine. These were the days of some really cool tours
I’ve been trying to find it for days. The beam routine of For What It’s Worth, right?!?
I've been looking for this clip for years! Thank you
Awesome Team!
been searching for this for a long time, thank you for posting it!!
remember watching this as a youngen'
so much adrenaline pumped thru my kid self over the mag 7
WHAT HAPPENED TO PART ONE - DID YOU TUBE BLOCK IT ?
I was at boot camp when this all took place
Why did Keri go on a different tour separate from the team?
Because she was a greedy diva who cared more about money than her team.
She was injured, so she couldn't join them and so she had to join a different tour after she's healed
@@justalilsparkle7873calm ur dick down. she was injured and basically couldn’t walk
go gumps!
Whatever happened to Tevin Campbell? He just seemed to dissappear.

+Caroni100 They have all done pretty well since those days, went on to universities, got married, formed new careers, all those things. :)

They honestly had the men strip.
Hey, sex sells
Where's the sound??

Where did she say that, was that when her book came out and she spoke up about abuse.
The scores go up for the later competitors. So the best gymnasts compete last.
@@celiaatkinson9621 It was an interview she did on TV. I don't remember which one.It was a few years ago and she literally used those words.

@@enchantedella6495 it backfired on Bela since Moceanu fell both times.
