Thanks for watching!
Midori Ito is so short, amazing. Her triple axel was so high for her height!
Midori’s a pint sized marvel. A powerhouse.
This is why i think Polina is underrated. Imagine being that tall but could still do a strong proper lutz with delayed effect.
Funny thing is, i’m even taller*, i’m 177cm lmao, i strive to be good at figure skating :3
She was a stunning jumper. Very airy and easy jumps with so much speed and distance. I hate that she wasn't able to go farther.
Holiday Pup Ooo I’m like 176 cm and still growing. I quit figure skating but I’m planning to go back. Mind sharing your progress?
Yuna Kim is taller than 164cm. She said before Sochi that she was still growing after Vancouver(164cm). In the pictures of Sochi podium, she was a little bit shorter than Carolina Kostner.
I agree with you. I saw in one of the videos featuring her that she's 168 cm.
@thegreendestiny nor does ur comment fix ur jealousy. 😝 stay pressed
Yes. Sotnikova height is 165cm. But In sochi yuna kim was taller than her.
imagine thegreendestiny having 5 other youtube accounts just to like his own comment LMAO
@thegreendestiny pathetic :(
Midori is the smallest. but her jump is the most biggest😎🦵
Whaaaaat why am I surprised Carolina is only 169 cm 😂 I guess most of these skaters look taller than they actually are since the boots give them some extra height.
Thats true.and almost always we see them with boots.
Body proportions also play a HUGEEEE factor. So e of these skaters (i won't say who haha) have big heads which makes them look way shorter.
OMG Zagitova looked to me so much taller than Lipnitskaya and I thought Daleman was much taller too
In other words the average height is about 160cm
02:24 Yuna Kim 👑
I had no idea that Radionova was comparatively so tall! I always thought of her as being on the shorter end of the spectrum.

Absolutely, excuse me😂😅
@Phi-Dung Nguyen This is absolutely not true. she sinks into the music and skates with the heart.
@Phi-Dung Nguyen Interpretation is a very subjective thing. I think Zhenya's interpretation is the best. she is able to transmit emotions by skating. but anyway who do you think has the best interpretation?😊
2:43 Cheating queen 😍
The smallest one is the best jumper and the one who jumps the highest.
Chris Quidlat and the most powerful jump too
Just like Simone Biles
But also they can't cover the whole ice ring same good as the tall ones.
Vik Toria, some did a better job...
@@HaveanIcedaymxomg, what are you doing here? I watch your videos, bcs there's not too much figure skating content in Spanish.
Midori Ito so small, but so amazing! She will be legendary forever!
💖АЛИНА ЗАГИТОВА💖💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍
The most beautiful Olympic Champion ever !!! 💐🏅
Lady brilliance.
Loved seeing the image of Tonya Harding next to Anna Shcherbakova - such contrasts.
4:30 oh that girl right of Yuna is an olympic championship? The audacity...
I thought the same thing too 😭
Evgenia Medvedeva is shorter than Yulia lipstinkaya????? Really???
She's not. Those numbers are old, Evgenia is taller now.
Wow! I always thought Kristi was much taller than Michelle Kwan.
And I knew Maria Sotskova waa tall but had no idea she has that tall.
I guess this list will need to be updated. No doubt the younger Russians will likely grow a few inches over the next few years. Shocking how tiny some of these skaters are.
Where’s Gracie Gold?
I think the author has mixed old and current height data in regards to some girls. For example, Alina is 160 according to her interviews and ISU athlete page, but Zhenya is definitely taller than Alina by a couple of cm (I think I saw her height listed as 162 somewhere) and she's still 159 here somehow.
Yeah...that's what I was thinking too! Alina is like 1 or 2 cm smaller than Evgenia
@@thacellogirl I think Zhenya's height is from Oly's season, but Alina was shorter at that time as well - 153-ish or something.
Medvedeva is 158 cm in ISU profile, 159 in Google. Where is "162"?
@@iceeditor5445 That's why I said I've seen it "somewhere", not on official sources. Anyways, knowing Alina's height it's not hard to guess Zhenya's compared to her since the latter is a bit taller as seen on pics and videos where the two are side by side.
@@iceeditor5445 you can look at them in the WC of 2019, Alina looks shorter than Evgenia. By the way, being taller or smaller doesn't mean anything Haha. Is just height.
Woah. Tonya looks way taller than her actual height.
is the shortest skater actually the highest jumper here?
Liam Kosquito thats true hahahah
Yeah, with the crappy shoes that she was provided back then. The quality of shoes and blades have improved over time ... and yet still Midori blows everybody out of the water.
No
I noticed that too 😉
I don't think so... maybe... but it might just look higher because of her height.
this is my only source of tea during this lockdown
2:21 Queen😘😘😘
Mao has nice postures and lines so she seemed much taller than her actual height. I also never knew that Radionova has the same height as Kostner. Kos seemed much taller than her.
i met radionova in person back in boston in 2016 at the world champ. Was shocked by her height ,she was around 170cm . With specific hairstyle ( with the boon over her head) she looked 175cm
Worlds 2016 was one of the most memorable/iconic championships among the recent ones: Mao's last championship, traumatizng event for Gracie, Ashley winning silver, the last jolly happy (almost pressure-less) win by Evgenia (considering she would lose gold to Zagitova and coaching change chaos etc), Polina finally getting the bronze that she deserved at worlds 2014, lovely support from American audience in Boston and so on. Phew. So much change in the field and rules since then!
@@origamis9477 Polina didn't get the bronze. I think you meant Anna Pogorilaya. Boston's WC was my favourite too!
@@kameleondaltonistka
Yes, that is correct! I am sorry to her and her fans.
Origami S those days that all the countries can compete and win a medal today's figure skating world is all about RUSSIANS !!!
The numbers are mixed.
Evgenia's height if from olympic season, but Alinas's is the current one.
Yuna~~ Miss you
Yuna is not 1 64. She is taller than that. She is around 1 68. I met her in PyeongChang so I can say that
Elihu Benjamin I am going to be quite frank, but that is due to the fact that Wikipedia lists at her being at
and Adelina Sotnikova as being only 1.63 m (5 ft 4 in) which makes YuNa taller than Adelina Sotnikova,, but that doesn't mean Yu Na is less elegant than Adelina Sotnikova. So while there are some inaccuracy of height placement of some skaters by the user, you can always rely on Wikipedia to clarify some of the confusion.
Are you 168 or shorter or why you are so sure? Because it's very difficult to tell someone's height correctly just by looking at them, especially if you're tall and looking at a shorter person.
@@Kareragirl I am taller than 168. However 168 is a height I almost detect as second nature cause some very special person for me is 168. And I was enough close too Yuna which permitted me to make a very educated guess about her height.
トゥルソワは、どんどん伸びてるらしいから、もう１６０位になってそう。ラジオノワはめっちゃ伸びたね♪前は少女って感じだったのに。
Alina Zagitova❤️🙏🏻
Yeah ! THE OLIMPIC CHAMPION ! 🏅⛸👏
浅田真央さんは公式163㎝のままなってるけどどう見ても前から163じゃなかった
ua-cam.com/video/L7PXEtSmUQw/v-deo.html
こちらでも165近くある。
本人は「伸びてる」って言っているけれどｗちゃんと更新してなかっただけじゃないかな？
Although I know how long a meter, I still cannot picture relative heights using meters as the unit. All of the numbers look the darn same. "Error, Error" "Does not compute". Need to start a new metric trend to use decimeters. That would go so much easier.
Debi Thomas didn't make the cut?
Nancy Kerrigan?
Mai....get well soon🤞we're waiting for u
Wait what happened I’m confused
@@anoblesteed5685 she has artritis she skipped this last season due to that, I hope she can come back healtier I miss her :(
@@rafael00084 i also have arthritis. I have been diagnosed with spinal stenosis which is why I can no longer ski nor roller blade. It's not often due to aging, as it can be a form of genetic predisposition. I do believe that arthritis can be treated, though some arthritis can get worse with aging. Some famous figure skaters have been dealing with arthritis for years. I used to go ice skating, but my arthritis got worse eventually after I was hit by a car in 1999.
I think this list was made using the current height of the athletes. Like I don't remember Yulia or Adelina being that tall in Sochi 2014.
Yohanes K Yeah. Yulia was tiny in Sochi. She grew a lot after that
they were young, probably they continued growing up after the OG
yes, in podium pictures from Sochi you can clearly see Yuna was taller than Adelina back then, but this shows Adelina slightly taller now
Adelina was 160 cm during Sochi.
Thank god for skaters like Maria Sotskova, Polina Tsurskaya, Lucinda Ruh. The only people I can relate to on the ice.
**SEE my channel for 5'9 (1.75m) adult skater. I only have under-rotated axel and under-rotated doubles so far, but I've only been skating for 3 years.
Evgenia is so tiny wow
I met her in person and yes! She is so short and tiny, she looks much taller on videos that’s how good and straight is her posture
But I think she‘s actually grown to 162cm and the number in the Video is from 3-4 years ago
xer wer maybe but it’s not that noticeable, i went to her seminar on Mexico this February
I’m 13 and 1.64 😞no wonder why my jumps are so small 😭😭😭
Hey, there are plenty of taller skaters that managed to make a career out of skating. Carolina Kostner won an Olympic Bronze Medal (during rigged Olympics) being way taller than you. You got this!
Good to see the three Korean women up there!
Me: Sees Adelina Sotnikova among Olympic champions *gets triggered*
Simple Truth same after 6 years my blood still boils if I see ADELINA 😡
@@user-fz7ld9rh2n unconditionally. oh wow. the meaning of that word.
@@user-fz7ld9rh2n With her junior steps, flutz, underrotation, two-foot huntchback landing, robotic postures, ugly spin variation, she has composed a mediocre program but given a score that almost broke Yuna's world record. Of course we must thank the support of Alla Shek-hoe and Alexander Lame-kernel for her win. Also we have to thank the cameramen for catching the ugly off-ice persona of Adelina so we can be stunned by her ignorance and greed. So therefore if you still think she produced an amazing program sorry but you are lying to yourself lol
@@simpletruth5927 я тебе так скажу. Лоханулась ваша кореянка в тот раз. Да и сама программа слабенькая была. Так вот Аделинка не будь дурой воспользовалась. Хватит уже слезы лить. Дело сделано.
Юрий Ляховский You know, history doesn’t recognize Adelina. What’s more, it won’t in the future, too.
there was an Olympic Games in 2014? didn't know that
Haha...yeah there was world comedy show in 2014
Koreans still can’t realize that their favorite lost outright ... The Olympic Games are just games. Someone will lose, while someone wins. )))) lol

How can they have Tonya Harding, but not her more accomplished rival, Nancy Kerrigan? But the most glaring omission, which shows they are ignorant of the history of figure skating, is to leave out the skater who many, especially other skaters, think was the best, and most influential, female figure skater in history. Michelle Kwan told the New York Times in 1997, "I want to be a legend, like Dorothy Hamill and Peggy Fleming. Janet Lynn didn't win an Olympic title, but in every skater's mind she's a legend." Kwan's coach, Frank Carroll, told The New York Times, "The greatest American skater I ever witnessed was Janet Lynn. She had everything, the looks, the music. She was poetry." Janet Lynn was a five-time US national champion, and an Olympic bronze medalist. She was the best female free skater in the world, but what tripped her up was compulsory figures, which counted for 60% of the total score at the time, competing against some of the best at compulsive figures in history. Just preceding Janet, Peggy Fleming was the best at compulsory figures and free skating during her reign, which is why she won World and Olympic titles. Because the public did not understand why Janet, the best free skater, did not win the international competitions-- compulsory figures were not a spectator sport--the officials devalued and eventually eliminated compulsory figures, although Janet says she is not in favor of eliminating compulsory figures because without what she learned from them she would not have been able to accomplish what she did in free skating, and she feels technique is not being properly taught today.
Anna💋💋💋
Polina is the tall and Alena is short in russian skaters.
Elizaveta, Evgenia Alina, Sofía, Constantinova is almost same in seniors.
This can't be 100% accurate - - there's no way in hell Sasha Cohen is taller than Michelle Kwan, or that Tonya Harding is shorter than Tara Lipinski.
Wiki doesn't agree with you)
Tonya and Tara have the same height, it is visible in vid.
I did not know that Lipnitskaya grew up as Zagitova, but girls perform at the age of 15 - and continue to grow.
the height here is listed for adults. now tara lipinski is 37 yo and she is 155 cm tall (actually 157 cm according to wikipedia), but in 1998, when she won the olympics at 15 yo, her height was 149 cm. the same applies for zagitova, lipnitskaya, biellmann, vodorezova and others skaters, who mostly were competing as teenagers
Yes.o course they continue growing after 15, 16 or 17.
@Karlygash Stig Andersen Alina at the olympics was only 1,54 she grew quite a lot since then
Ice Editor wiki is inaccurate with Adelina’s height. The other site listed her at 164. I will prove it. It used to list her at 164. cm. And wiki listed yu na at 164. 1/2 even though she’s at 5’5”. They would list her either at 166. Or 165.
+1 Olympic champion
コスちゃん復活してくれ
WHERE'S GRACIE GOLD Or even NANCY KERRIGAN ???
They both deserve a spot here more than some unlikely known figure skaters !!!
Here are the world champions, Olympic champions and winners of the grand prix stages. Obviously, you gave the names of some losers.
Олег Григорьев If you look at Gracie's accomplishments as a figure skater you can never EVER!!! Call her a LOSER she had some victories and Grand Prix wins so you had a poor taste of judgment between . You don't have any right to judge a skater because you don't even know the pressure they're feeling and the commitment to every competition.
Olympic Team Event bronze medalist (2014)
World Junior silver medalist (2012)
U.S. champion (2016, '14)
U.S. silver medalist (2015, '13)
U.S. junior champion (2012)
Grand Prix Series medals: 6
You also can't judge NANCY KERRIGAN here are some of her accomplishments to remind you the she ain't a loser!!!
Medal record
Representing the United States
Ladies' figure skating
Olympic Games
Silver medal - second place 1994 Lillehammer Ladies' singles
Bronze medal - third place 1992 Albertville Ladies' singles
World Championships
Silver medal - second place 1992 Oakland Ladies' singles
Bronze medal - third place 1991 Munich Ladies' singles
Winter Universiade
Bronze medal - third place 1989 Sofia Ladies' singles
Whoever you are you have no right to judge or even call a skater Loser because you don't even know the hardships they've felt just to represent their country and if you pay attention some figure skaters in the list aren't even popular or known for their wins.
If you think these two skaters is a loser SHAME ON YOU 🙄
POOR TASTE OF JUDGEMENT AND YOU SHOULD LEARN TO RESPECT EVERY SKATER SO SHUT YOUR MOUTH 🤐 AND NEVER JUDGE I HOPE YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE THIS QUARANTINE.
SOME SKATERS HERE IN THIS VIDEO DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE TO BE HERE .
ALSO ANOTHER SHADE TO ADELINA SOTNIKOVA 🇷🇺 FOR BEING A FAKE OLYMPIC CHAMPION SHE MAY HAVE THE MEDAL BUT SHE WILL NEVER HAVE THE SUPPORT AND HONOR OF THE FANS
ALSO SOME HEIGHT DATA IS WRONG SO I THINK THE EDITOR CHECK THE FRESHEST DATA AND NOT SOME OLD WRONG DATAS
@@danielbmuli I respect your dissenting American opinion. You can love your skaters as much as you like and make your own ratings. Of course I know about Gracie Gold and Nancy Carrigan. These are not the worst skaters and could be represented, the latter is known in connection with the Tonya Harding scandal. And by the way, Tonya is present here, does it bother you? The ugliest figure skater in history. Everything is correct about the judging, it is always subjective and the fans will always resent it. I'm not a fan of Sotnikova, but, in fairness, Sarah Hughes is also present here, who I also consider a false champion.
@@grigol101 I am going to be fierce , but never did Sarah Hughes gave any indication of consistency problems. However , you should look at Sarah's younger sister Emily and see how she pairs with Sarah Hughes. She never fell that much during her olympic performance, and was a strong contender.

Interesting.
Carolina is the shortee than mao and yuna omg I'm shookt lol whenever those three were together she looked inches taller than them

The placement of Shizuka Arakawa is the only one correct as the information from Wikipedia listed her height as 166 cm (5 ft 5 in) So Adelina Sotnikova was inadvertently swapped with Yu Na as being 'taller' than Yu Na.

This is why Yuna’s high jump is in actual fact, much higher than Kostornaia’s. Yuna is 11cm taller. If their jump looks the same height in contrast to their body height, it means Yuna’s jumps are 11cm higher.
