It is way more difficult for someone so tall with her long legs to do these exercises than it is for someone tiny with short legs. Her body shape gives her that extra "umf" too. And yes, we all had to do ballet along with gymnastics to give us more grace for the bar and floor exercises.
I will never forget the heartbreaking look of anguish on her face at Sydney. She carried on like the pro she was/is and still brought home various medals. . She is so beautiful and graceful. She suprised all of those that told her she was too tall and that she would never be able to compete. Now she has her own gymnastic school and is teaching others. There is a room that houses all of her medals and trophies. So much for the naysayers. God bless her.
@@mrworlddds5 ft 5 is extremely tall in gymnastics. Most gymnasts are 5 ft tall and under. When you are as small as Simone biles for example who is below 5 ft, 4 ft 8, it makes it much easier to perform the moves. Being compact is a huge advantage in gymnastics. This is why she was so unique. In addition to the fact that she looked like a ballerina and made the moves look extraordinarily beautiful in a way that almost no other gymnast does
Khorkina on bars...NO GRIPS! She did all that bare-handed. Unbelievable. But she was so light and strong -- Her other events were always fascinating to me. Floor was a huge strength because she was so powerful, expressive, and well-choreographed. Vault was always clean (unless the horse was changed). Beam, which I love, is where I see Khorkina sometimes hesitating or losing her famous poise & grace...but in every event, she always had perfect, beautiful, picture-perfect landings.
Her legs look a mile long but she's 5'5" tall. To compare, I think Simone Biles is less than 5'. I am no gymnast, but I'm 5'3", shorty little pipsqueak myself, so Svetlana is 2 inches taller than me. To anyone else she's average height, but for gymnastics she's very tall.
I miss her performances. So beautiful. Graceful and athletic at the same time. It is not necessary for girls to be muscle bound (like elite female gymnasts are now) to be at the top of their game in this sport. Svetlana proved it over and over again.
Svetlana was somewhat coherced into cutting her hair before competition, she thought it would make her faster getting ready and show it was OK for girls to have boyish hairstyles if they chose, some wanted to see if alongside all the psychological demands if competition a taking of her typically pretty image would affect her mentally. She let this happen, she is truly amazing to risk this knowing what she stood to lose when the mind and psychology of sport is such a huge thing.
I was obsessed with Sveta! And I was a boy! 😂 the moves, the grace, even her diva-personaility. She's like a drag queen in gymnastics. Taller than everybody else, louder than everybody else
@@amyhewlett5666 we had this tv commentator who covered figureskating and gymnastics. He was in complete awe of Sveta. Looking back, it was so embarrassing. He would tell people what they were watching and HOW they should watch it, imposing his views on the viewers.Very biased and over the top. Svetlana would LOVE him. 😂
so amazing to realize her vaulting prowess watching these back. had the AA disaster not transpired, i imagine Khorkina would not have gifted Zamo her spot in the vault finals...to think Khorkina very well could have been a three time olympic medalist on vault!
I think she played up to the drama a bit. The Stalder full turn into Tkachev is very difficult and she fell on it in the team finals. She fell on it in the AA final as well. It was a risky move. Had she made that skill, she would've done the vault again. Every athlete was allowed to re-do their vaults. NBC commentators made it seem that the mistake on bars was a result of Svetlana being emotionally overcome after she fell on that mismeasured vault. Nope: she lost focus on a tricky skill. She could have done a giant full into Tkachev but she went fir the Chow. .I love Sveta but she also lived in her own reality. That's why she's the queen of artistic gymnastics. Divas create their own narrative.
@@roddo1955 Not sure what "Stalder full turn into Tkatchev" or "giant full into Tkatchev" you're talking about because her stalder Tkatchev (it's a Ricna, not a Chow) was after a cast with half turn. If there were ever any "Chows" whether in the CoP or colloquial, they were pirouette or transitioning elements and not releases. And she _could_ have gone for a regular Tkatchev from a giant (not a giant full or whatever), but she presumably wouldn't have enough bonus tenths from connections to reach the 10.1 start value needed in apparatus finals in the perfect 10 system.
@@roddo1955 okay, you’re saying because she fell on TF then the vault thing didn’t affect her mentally… But she performed well in quals and in the bars final, being the favorite to win the event, there’s NO WAY you can tell the vault situation didn’t affect her on bars
@@ChainChomp2 I'm not as versed in all the elements such as yourself but yeah that's what I meant with the stalder full into Tkachev, I was too lazy to look it up on the wiki page😂but I stand to my point: she didn't fall because she was emotionally rattled after her fall on vault. She fell because missed a skill she had fallen on before and it was risky, it could've happened in qualies, team finals, apparatus finals... And she did not need that 10.1 SV in AA finals-which is what I'm referring to.
@@sinhueherrera8984 no that is not what I was saying. If you copy and paste what I typed and put it next to your conclusion you'll see that you misunderstood/misread my post. My post is also based on my observations and my interpretation of said observations. We might see things differently but let's not tell eachother what is the right way of looking at the same thing.
Por ser tan alta fue tan elegante en sus ejecuciones perfectas ... Y por ser tan alta se requería de un mayor nivel de dificultad... Fue la mejor de todos los tiempos
I’m shocked by how easy her first beam routine was. In 1994 as a level 9 mine was much harder. Her bar routine on the other hand was very difficult. I just watched the last beam routine, and it was VERY difficult. Crazy how much she improved on beam over the years.
I remember being a kid in the 90s and watching her make it look effortless. And knowing later that being tall in gymnastics would make it more difficult.
La mejor de todos los tiempos... La más elegante, guapa, carismática, graciosa y femenina en sus movimientos... En el piso me encanta como nunca deja de mover sus brazos de una manera tan femenina y graciosa.. una mujer divina... La mejor, la mejor por mucho.
A MAIOR de todas! Simplesmente maravilhosa, elegante, parece uma bailarina ❤ completíssima em todos os aparelhos! A Rússia tem a ginástica mais bonita, com movimentos leves, totalmente diferente de hoje em dia onde as ginastas estão robotizadas
This is a very nice and lovely video. It fills the viewer's heart with gladness and takes away all his sadness. This video displays breathtakingly beautiful performances from a bewitchingly beautiful and respected queen of gymnastics. May all the esteemed people of the erstwhile Soviet Union live happily and peacefully ever after. May Kyiv and Moscow always stand beside each other as they did in the past. According to me, the respected Ukrainians and Russians are very important for the development and welfare of this planet. This is due to the excellent progress they made in medicines and space research and also for their splendid and exemplary performances in the Olympics they participated in. I would like to humbly request all the respected people of this world to pray for the health, wealth, happiness, prosperity, peace, and safety of the esteemed Ukrainians and Russians. Many, many thanks to all the revered Americans and Europeans. I would also like to sincerely thank all the venerated residents of France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Holland, Italy, Denmark, Ukraine, and Russia. I will always remain grateful and remember the kindness and sympathy that were showered on me. Extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused. Please forgive me. Thanks a lot.
ganhou.. mas a edição desse vídeo foi meio rasteira. Quase todos os videos de salto e trave são das performances nas finais por equipes aonde ela (junto com o time) ganhou prata ou bronze... mas eles colocaram como se ela tivesse competido nas finais por aparelhos.
Vaya!! Hasta que veo una gimnasta espectacular. Indagando en internet encontre este video de Svetlana porque google esta plagado de propaganda de Simone Biles. Lo dicho señores no creo que lleguen al nivel de estas rusas pues son las reinas de la gimnasia olimpica.
La reina de las barras, la mejor y la más hermosa de todos los tiempos en mi opinión. Dejé de disfrutar la gimnasia cuando se fue, ahora olvidaron el arte y lo cambiaron por gimnastas rudas, toscas, sin gracia que solo tienen músculos y fuerza pero se ven burdas y feas. Por siempre gracias Svetlana Khorkina, siempre te llevaré en mi mente y corazón.
I remember my dad asking me who's your favorite athlete and I was like 6 so I just said the tall Russian girl. But my mom was like mines too and my dad is like we're American....( jokingly of course ) I still remember how graceful her floor performances are. LOL I just found out I'm taller at 5'9.
Was she the most graceful? No. Was she the most talented? No. Was she the most dynamic? No. But she did her gymnastics as if she was the best at everything. Her drive and perseverance is what got her to legendary status. She believed in herself before others did. I always found her moves to be a bit 'gangly'. Nastia had more control over her long lines than Sveta did. But Sveta knew how to SELL it and fight for every tenth. Hopping and skipping out if landings she couldn't control whilst making eye contact with the judges. Svetlana was the ultimate:" fake it, until you make it-gymnast" And once she made it, she stunned the world with out of this world floor routines and unique elements. Svetlana and Simone are two completely different athletes but they both put their stamp on modern day gymnastics. Pity that Sveta said some problematic things, regarding strength in gymnastics and race. She conveniently forgot about Produnova, then....
She didn’t fake anything. She was not given medals because she tricked judges into see skills that were not there, or by hiding any mistakes. She worked very hard for her achievements and deserved everyone of them.
Un luminoso y eterno fragmento de aerolito desprendido del Bolshoi,mas ultra moderno.Pasmado frente al sutil despliegue de extrema belleza que supera la exquisitez.
She was like a ballet dancer performing a gimnastics routine. Beautiful!
❤
I wonder if she’s had ballet lessons? She’s brilliant.

@@rir79 So true!
@@rir79Yeah nowadays watching women gymnast is not an artistic show at all, Russian gymnasts were so elegant and beautiful to watch.

I loved how she wore her emotions on her sleeve. She was not to be messed with😂
She just 1.65 (5'5)🤔🤔🤔
Well by comparison Simone Biles is 4'8" (1.42 m). And Nastia Liukin is 5'3" (1.6 m), and she looks tall. So Khorkina is very tall for what she does.

Her floor routine at 2000 Sydney olympics is iconic!
Her floor routines were true performances. She transports you to another place.
What a legend! So graceful and unique, she will always stand out
Not like the rubber shorty Biles? Really?

I never understood how she vaulted so well. LOVE her gymnastics, was never a fan of her ignorance.
@@triffusno ignorance. Differences of opinion is not foolishness
I remember watching her as I kid and being so fascinated. She was the driving force behind me doing gymnastics in junior high.
The moment the crowd clapping along in Athens to her floor routine will always be a highlight for me ❤️
I just love that moment. She was the only one I remember was smiling before her tumbling pass
Sven
I get chills every time I watch that routine! 🥹
She's got L O N G legs!
She's very graceful, athletic and talented. I'm a big fan.

I was in awe of her from the moment I first seen her perform. She was so graceful. I usually cheer on United States, but I was an instant fan.
I love how smooth her landings looked
My all time favourite. Beautiful gymnast.
Now this is art. Well done.
I miss her performances. So beautiful. Graceful and athletic at the same time. It is not necessary for girls to be muscle bound (like elite female gymnasts are now) to be at the top of their game in this sport. Svetlana proved it over and over again.
Her bars is one of the quickest and visually interesting, even by current standards
What an athlete and a beautiful person.
Years later I needed to remind myself of how awesome her uneven bar routines are.
So graceful but a total Diva! She's one of my favorites!
Svetlana was somewhat coherced into cutting her hair before competition, she thought it would make her faster getting ready and show it was OK for girls to have boyish hairstyles if they chose, some wanted to see if alongside all the psychological demands if competition a taking of her typically pretty image would affect her mentally. She let this happen, she is truly amazing to risk this knowing what she stood to lose when the mind and psychology of sport is such a huge thing.
Ses exercices au sol étaient magnifiquement synchronisés avec la musique! Une vraie chorégraphie. On ne le voit plus maintenant, où l'acrobatie prime.
Ella es única, las gimnastas de hoy son muy musculosas y rutinas menos coreográficas, repito ella era una bailarina en la gimnasia
Why did they spoil Artistic Gymnastics?!
I used to love her as little girl.. so greatful for UA-cam
I was obsessed with Sveta! And I was a boy! 😂 the moves, the grace, even her diva-personaility. She's like a drag queen in gymnastics. Taller than everybody else, louder than everybody else
@@roddo1955 exactly my sister told me I could never do gymnastics because of my height and when I saw her it made my heart melt.

she is the first girl telling me a woman can be very pretty with short hair
One of the greatest olymphian....
Indeed the most elegant one. This is the gymnastics should be.
Remember when gymnastics had artistry and was exciting to watch? Sigh
They had such interesting choreographies back then…and they were better dancers
Svetlana is amazing and sorely missed.
Amazing gymnast! It’s incredibly difficult for someone with her body type and height to compete on the Olympic level.
I swear she has the longest legs I've ever seen on a gymnast. It made her particularly lovely on the uneven bars.
@@NoOne-bp2jw And she's 5'5", a lot of gymnasts are very tiny compared to her. To compare, I think Simone Biles is less than 5' tall.

Yes!!!!
Super bonita ella ☺️ los gimnastas que brillaron en los 90s💗👍🏼
Totalmente me acuerdo era chica y me llamaba tención la gym artística, me acuerdo d esveclana 💞
Такой красивой спортивной гимнастки не было на уровне международном до Свеланы и до сих пор еще нет.
Была ещё Светлана Богинская! Тоже невероятно стройная!
So beautiful, elegant and graceful ❤
I always loved to watch her - she was so tall and beautiful 🤍 and she never wore grips on the bars - she’s old school like me 😉
Выдающаяся гимнастка, легенда, лучшая в мире навсегда. 👍😊
She totally sticks every landing, no matter what piece of equipment she's on!
She had such presence and energy to match the skills!
She’s my all time favorite gymnast and always will be. So gorgeous, so elegant, so controlled. I just love her

So greatest of all time of time?

Considered too tall for gymnastics but too short for ballet. You're right though.
Nah. She was too gangly and not particularly coordinated to make fluid movements. She was a gymnast through and through.
