One of the greatest skaters of all time. Her choreography, technique, and artistry set her apart!! Tremendous athleticism!! The joy on her face says it all!!
Великая фигуристка.Кумир моей молодости.Помним и любим!Фигурное катание ушло так далеко вперёд за эти годы.Но Катарина и сейчас смотрится очень хорошо и современно.С любовью к ней из России!
Ich kann mich an diesen wundervollen Auftritt noch genau erinnern. Ich liebe seit meiner frühstens Kindheit diese Sportart .Was fürs Auge ,was fürs Herz .
I was around 12 when I happened to catch this electrifying performance live on tv, and I knew it then, I knew it very well that these was going to be one of those wonderous moments that will never ever forget.
Ist schon so lange her aber ich bekomme immer noch eine Gänsehaut wenn ich sie sehe ,ein tolles Mädel unsere kati auch jetzt noch tolle frau ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Remember.....the Cold War and the Iron Curtain was still a Thing in 1988. So the Use of a Michael Jackson Song as an East German Athlete was something very Special!
Незабываемая фигуристка! Мастерство, талант, темперамент! С ней было трудно соперничать. Тогда немецкая школа фигурного катания была в расцвете. Спасибо за видео!!!
Dang - this was so good. She did the moonwalk on skates , that’s just insanely awesome. I admire her choice , the choreography and the artistic quality of it .
That was GDR (DDR) East German communist strict, brutal, superb training, imagine a soy boy or girl would be put under such rigorous coach. be called human rights violations
You could already feel the wall falling in Berlin- a champion from East (GDR) performing on Michael Jackson song with such ease and joy was really something at that time. Even though- nobody could imagine that the end was so close ... And Katarina really is exceptional talent, personality and charm up until these days.
I was too young at that time to watch it, let alone understand the actual happening. Was this performance meant as an exhibition or was it part of her olympic programme over there?
It was a post Olympic competition exhibition. Katarina had won her second consecutive gold medal basically by playing defense against America's Debbie Thomas (who was leading going into the long program). The tactic worked, not only at the Olympics, but the World Championships a few months later. What made the exhibition interesting was because how much popularity women's figure skating was receiving during that time. Katarina vs Debi was quite a catalyst in achieving that popularity. Not to mention West Germany was still Communist at the time, and she skated to Michael Jackson. Back then that in and of itself was a big deal.
ohmixmaster Thanks a lot for your very detailed answer on my question. I was still a young child at that time. But I guess my father was very delighted to see a young Katarina Witt in action... I can't remember if my mother was that happy about him looking so "interested" at Witt's performance. Do you also know to tell me which one of these two champions was in your eyes the better one? Was it Katarina Witt or her American rival Debbie Thomas? Thanks again for your nice answer.
Your welcome. And yeah, your father was not alone, my teenage self along with pretty much every other man in the world was rather, how should I say, "captivated" by her...lol. In regards to who was "better" I would say Debi was the better athlete, but Katarina was the better performer and strategist.
ohmixmaster lol, I like your very polite way to describe your interest in Witt, apart from her excellent figure skating performance... you were "captivated" ;-). Seems as if I have missed two of the greatest female figure skaters , shame. But therfor we have youtube and such. I do ice-skate too, but I'm - at best - not a quarter as talented as Witt and Thomas were.
А ведь прошло 34 года! Равной Катарины не было! И сейчас, спустя 34 года, девочка даст 100 очков вперёд по красоте проката и женственности. Без всяких четвернях! Спасибо, что была на льду, и радовала нас столько лет!!
Да что вы прицепились к четверным. Я хочу смотреть фигурное катание из за сложных прыжков. А танцы могу смотреть и на других соревнованиях. Поперек горла стоят эти четверные кому то, достали.
Considering the 'seriousness' of Bizet for the olympic gold in the same year, just goes to show what versatility she had, and rhythm she had as an skate artist.
Oh, this is gold. No wonder she got Olympic gold that year. (I know this is the after-exhibit, and she got gold for another performance before this.) Superb!!! 💕🤗
Świetna łyżwiarka, idolka mojego nastoletnich lat, z zachwytem oglądałam jej programy, nigdy nie zapomnę Carmen i właśnie tego wspaniałego energetycznego tańca do Bad... Pozdrawiam Cię Katarino ❤
Me at the age of 12 saw her live in karl-marx-stadt dancing to this great song by mj, it was unbelivable in that year bevore everything changed in germany, she was absolutly amazing, will never forget that night - kati you are our best girl, stay healthy and all the best for you
Ich habe mir nie angemast sportliche Erfolge zu vereinahmen (z.B. wir sind Fussballmeister), weil ich nicht sportlich bin; aber bei Kati Witt macht es mich stolz eine Landsmännin zu sein.Vielen Dank für das goldene Kompliment. Woher kommen Sie ?
Again and again and again, the more you watch from 1980's the clearer it becomes how much better 1980's is than any other decade ESPECIALLY the horrendous disgusting 21st century, everything was awesome, best cars, best music, best athletes, best olympics, best everything
Greatest performance EVER from the Goat 🐐 As italian never involved in skating, I remember this vividely since then. I looked for it and youtube didn't disappoint me ..... thanks to who has posted it 80s were different ❤️
Last one to skate for the night. 1988 Olympics what a way to end it. She just has that natural 😍 appeal. She can really sell what she does best. The world fell in love with her.
ART in the best way of this sport w/o every 30 sec a jump. Clear that's was the show part of the Olympics. But for me this was every year after the championships the best part, especially with Katarina Witt 🤘🙏 This was Katarina's clear statement (for her East German government)... I'm ready for the ice shows and you must keep the word, what you have given to me. Second Olympic Gold against American Ice show 💪
Ach Kati, für viele warst und bist Du die Größte. Du hast uns soviel Freude bereitet, ich werde Carmen nie vergessen.
One of the greatest skaters of all time. Her choreography, technique, and artistry set her apart!! Tremendous athleticism!! The joy on her face says it all!!
Noch heute ein sportlicher Genuss, das anzusehen!
Прекрасная, энергичная и талантливая фигуристка - Катарина Витт ❤ 👍👌.
Just look at the joy on her face while she's performing! Also, she did the moonwalk on ice skates - so cool!!
Sie hat so einen Spaß dabei und strahlt Freude aus 🥰😊
Великая фигуристка.Кумир моей молодости.Помним и любим!Фигурное катание ушло так далеко вперёд за эти годы.Но Катарина и сейчас смотрится очень хорошо и современно.С любовью к ней из России!
Согласна. Даже Слуцкая, которая выступала позже, смотрится хуже
Ю.Мюллер имя мировом фигурном катании
@@ВесенняяМагнолия-м2йкакая Слуцкая, вы о чем? и рядом не стояла
Bu gösteriyi tvde izlediğimi çok iyi hatırlıyorum.Inanilmazdi cok etkilenmistim.Uzun zaman akıllardan çıkmamıştı.Sevgiler Katarina Witt...
She was always beautiful on the ice. Loved watching her

This was a signal, a prelude to the two sides becoming reunited. A year and a half later the Berlin Wall would finally fall.
Незабываемая фигуристка! Мастерство, талант, темперамент! С ней было трудно соперничать. Тогда немецкая школа фигурного катания была в расцвете. Спасибо за видео!!!
Сама ещё и красавица и артистизм зашкаливал!
Да, она великолепна!
Dang - this was so good. She did the moonwalk on skates , that’s just insanely awesome. I admire her choice , the choreography and the artistic quality of it .
Moonwalks are incredibly easy to do in skates.
That was GDR (DDR) East German communist strict, brutal, superb training, imagine a soy boy or girl would be put under such rigorous coach. be called human rights violations

She had so much fun doing this.. the smile says it all
EVERYONE had great fun there...
Катарин, браво!!!2022 год. Супер!!!
красавица и умница. Очень яркая фигуристка. С детства запомнилась.
Великолепная Катарина! Спасибо за видео 🙏💕
She was Amazing. Great performance.
She's really good i got goosebumps.
Легко, непринужденно, радостно. Видно, что ей очень нравится то, что она делает...⛸
Браво нет слов одни эмоции умничка класс таких фигуристок уже никогда не будет браво!!!
I remember this like it was yesterday....the US commentary was hilarious..."The motorcycle is parked out back." lol lol

Very simple routine
@@jorgeconde5956Trotzdem ist sie bist heute die Erfolgreichste . Neidisch ?
this is probably the most fun time she ever had on the ice; she even does the moonwalk!!
Вот это настоящий шедевр и праздник души и глаз. Молодец, Катти!
She was awesome ❤️
what a talent ☺📺
I remember it as if it was yesterday

Çucukluğumda TRT de izlemiş ve hayran kalmıştım ve şimdi izliyorum o günden bugüne 35 yıl gibi bir zaman geçmesine rağmen yine mükemmel yine süper 👏👏👏

Solo una parola:IMMENSA!!!!..e poi stupenda,bellissima,divina,mio padre ed io non ci perdevamo una sua gara o esibizione!!👏😘💕
Запомнилась на всю жизнь ...легенда ФК .
The most talented, as well as being a knockout cuty, her skill I dowt wil ever be eqaled.
Woooow!
I mostly loved your 1988-year performance during classical music ❤
she brings a wonderful weimar era cabaret feeling to her skating, that's why, as a calgarian in 88 I loved her the best
самая лучшая-навсегда)
А как же ваши из школы этери?.
Всему и всем свое время.... она - тогда лучшвя, наши - сейчас!!!
А по-моему лучше восхищаться, и наблюдать за интересными, красивыми, женщинами, чем на попрыгунчиков, от Этери тутберидзе
