🗞️ News from the Olympic world: oly.ch/News
Imagine how he suffered a disastrous short program at the 2018 Winter Olympics, expected to win but finished 4th, in front of the entire world. Had to wait four long years, through hard work, sweat and tears, attending school at Yale (!), then a defeat at Skate America just a few months before these Olympics (which could’ve shaken his confidence)….YET overcomes all these struggles to make it back to another Winter Olympic Games, this time battling three extremely talented Japanese skaters, and finally WINNING the GOLD with two outstanding performances in the short and long programs! Nathan Chen is simply REMARKABLE.
Plus he was injured on the foot and NEVER complained about it or told us, which is so admirable of him.
Well said,guys…. I really enjoy reading intellectual comments from Nathan’s fans.
@@Emily-bt4hw 他是一個低調及謙虛的男生
What a comeback story. A real Olympian spirit.
He finished 5th, Boyang Jin was 4th
I randomly encountered Nathan at a cafe in NY, and was so starstruck as a fangirl of him for years and could only say “I watched your performance a lot on UA-cam. ” when I finally spoke to him. So embarrassing but he was so sweet took a photo with me!
Thank you for sharing! We love Nathan ❤😊
Is he going to be in the next Winter Olympics or is he retired now? He is the greatest !!!
@@jdenino6022 He will prepare for medical school next year, so I don’t think he’ll come back.
I would probably end up saying that as well due to being overly excited and anxious😅
Is the best😂
Love the way the Japanese skaters applauded Nathan's performance. Now that is sportsmanship!!! Nathan Chen saw a sports psychologist who emphasized that he should go out to the skating rink and enjoy himself and not concentrate on winning. In the 2018 Winter Olympics Nathan admitted that he was concentrating on winning and the pressure affected his performance. Look at his 2022 performance and notice how relaxed he appeared and he even smiled during the middle of the program. Hope to see him back in 2026 after he finishes his degree at Yale. His loving mother believed in his son and sacrificed so much for him. She is really a humble person and wore plain clothing and no make-up when she surprised her son at the Today show.
Japanese are the nicest people on the planet, except for one thing, most of them don’t speak English… the Japanese fans love Nathan, and I’m quite sure the Fanyus who attack Nathan are not the Japanese fans…
He had something in his program that none of the other skaters did, you could tell he was having fun and enjoying himself. All the others looked too serious.
@@KK-ol3bp its ok and fine to be a fanyu just dont be those awful and evl clownyus. 👍
@@RM-uc4mf I thought so too.
It’s been 20 years since Nathan started at age 3, and he already went to two Olympics, leaving the sport with an Olympic gold and at his peak is most appropriate in my humble opinion. After receiving his degree at Yale, I think he is ready to move on to preparing for something even bigger, like the President of the United States.
Brilliantly skated, all the power of his jumps plus artistry and just plain FUN ! I love to revisit Nathan's Olympic and other performances and celebrate not only his work on the ice but also off-ice work in replacing negative thoughts with positive ones and regaining his joy on the ice.
gosh, he looks like he's having so much fun. an amazing and well deserved win.
It’s definitely Nathan’s season…. I still get goosebumps no matter how many times I watched it.. I’m a huge Hanyu fan but this performance from Nathan is just really awe inspiring… He’s definitley enjoying himself…
yes an thats what i miss about hanyu.
That was why he got the medal 🏅
Until this performace, Hanyu's long in Helsinki was the best I'd ever seen. But I can't believe this performance by Nathan will be bettered in my lifetime.
He is one of a kind, I will miss him dearly.
This is my absolute FAVORITE of Nathan Chen!!
Can’t count how many times I watched this!
Me as well!
I rewatch it every day
Same with me, almost every day, and still love it
Literally same
This is my favorite thing in the world to watch. there is no better performance in the history of the universe and on this there can be no debate!
You are absolutely right。Nathan is the best !♥️🌹💪
He was on fire! The music the moves…excellent! ❤❤❤❤❤
YES, WOW!
再びを見て、再度の感動
ネイサン、有り難う御座います
Nathan has already graduated from Yale and received an award for outstanding thesis. Congrats !
Thank you for sharing with us。What a smart, humble young man。❤❤
Such a totally different style of skating from Yuzuru Hanyu. What a privilege and delight to be alive in a time when we get to see Yuzu, Nathan, and Shoma Uno reach their own respective pinnacles. All different, all incredible. Wow.
And Jason Brown? He definitely belongs on the list of best skaters for his artistry….and his triple axel is absolutely flawless too.
And certainly Shoma and Yuma who are just starting out in seniors and already have a very high PCS rating. Yuma won silver and Shoma
took bronze in Beijing.
@@mrl6956 I think Shoma has been skating on the senior circuit for 4-5 years. If I'm not mistaken, 2017 was his first year in the seniors.
@@chadley25 Of course, Shoma since 2014/15 :)
I wrote: "Yuma who are just starting out in seniors and already have a very high PCS rating"
@@novascotiaskater1868 Jason's great but you cannot call his triple axel "flawless" he's not very consistent at it and gets q or < calls pretty often.
ネイサンのスケートが恋しいです❤ジャンプだけじゃなくて全てが揃った人はなかなか現れてないですね〜❤❤
july 2024. still fascinated by this performance
I can not stop watching this video, very much appreciated and love to see Nathan’s victory smiling and invincible performance. 🏅🥇❤️💫
Ahora recibe 🏅🏆🏅 premios por sus logros Académicos!!!!!!lo MÁXIMO!!!!!!!!
The song, the impeccable performance. I can't stop coming back to this
Me too!
Same here!
Same! This was my favorite performance.
Me neither
Me too😃
This performance was nearly perfect, but he didn’t need to be perfect bc he was already so far ahead of everyone else he had secured gold
I watch this video almost daily. It's so impressive and artistic. Also it inspires me to be better.
I thought I was the only one.
I think I watch every night before bed. So very excited for Him.
No cheating or drugs just hard work and dedication to excellence. We can all feel proud
same here. same here...
OMG same. It's just pure joy and makes me happy.
I miss him and his skating. 💜
Every time I saw this Nathan is winner , we are all winners 🏅🥇🎖️😊I feel so happy 💥
Нейтан,браво млн раз.Лучшеттеья никого не быдо и не будет никогда.
To see Nathan Chen win his gold medal l went to celebrate with my friends l was happy for him
Nathan amazing brilian perfec is best aku sangat suka bagaimana beberapa gerakan dan lompatan jatuh pas dengan iringan musik dan lagunys sangat indah power full dan menyentuh tetap keren dengan kostun yang sesederhana sekalipun ilike nathan
June and still watching
Me too... I don't think I will ever stop going back to this video.
Same ❤
I’m the biggest Nathan Chen fan in the world but give props to the three wonderful Japanese skaters when they were shown clapping for Nathan. The Japanese are so polite and full of class.
The Japanese skaters might be gracious, but a LOT of their fans aren't. Watch how many times in videos the Fanyu's do not applaud for Nathan after his fantastic performances. In many of the competitions, especially in Japan, Nathan's applause was tepid compared to Hanyu's. It's fine that the Japanese would applaud more and be louder for Hanyu, but the difference between the two was striking and, in my opinion, poor sportsmanship on behalf of those people who did not also applaud for Nathan.
Because they're awesome.
@@L1623VPthat is very well said.
This was just awesome.
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN NATHAN CHEN, OLYMPIC CHAMPION! You are such an inspiration!
Nathan chen、金メダルおめでとうございます❤️
獲るべき人が獲れて本当に良かった。
ただただ幸せ
Both his short and free programs had not one hand touching the ice - SKATE perfection - Truly perfect. And Also so beautiful! And to work like that wearing N95 before & after. I can relate in this. Working in a USA nursing home we lost almost 100 elderly, wearing n95s full ppe these were horrible times. It made me happy to see this beauty
His synchronisation of the jump to the song is amazing at 2:29
Congratulations on the gold!
And his opening jumps :56
1:23 4 Flip plus matching the jump style to the music style.
This is what I came to say - it’s just so perfect 👩🍳 💋
I think I've watched Nathans free skate at least a hundred times and every time it gets suggested to me or pops up in my timelines I always watch it again 😍👏⛸🥇 ABSOLUTE PERFECTION 👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌
Me too , but still I want to come back to watch it even more.
@@emmamago7636 me too 😍❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lovely routine, on point with the music, great!
I love how he is so expressive and you can feel that he is really enjoying. Congrats Nathan. It was your time to shine. Well deserved victory. =)
Since the inception of the Code of Points in the 04-05 season, Nathan Chen is the only men's skater to win the Olympics with two clean programs with +GOE on every element and no deductions. Just another reason he's so amazing.
Ele é magnífico 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤❤❤🇧🇷
Imagine a world in which we could all spend our time on this planet appreciating and nurturing such skill and brilliance of performance as demonstrated by Nathan Chen in this sublime free skate. Less time on war and crushing the human spirit, more time on exaltation.
Your wish is mine
СУПЕР!!! Божественно......
👍🤝🤝🙌🇺🇦
I can watch that quad lutz over and over.
I went home and introduced Nathan skating to the whole family. Now everyone of us is an avid fan of his. Watch his skating from when he is just a kid everyone is in awe. Watch him everyday , never get bored. Thanks Nathan for your magic and mesmerizing skates.
The same here 😍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh, he IS boring. Once you have seen his program and known the score, it's enough. No wish to see it again and again.
Phenomenal, unsurpassed and still undefeated Nathan 👑
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉the best of all Nathan Chen is.
So phenomenal!!!⛸️🔥🔥🔥
개취로는 프리 랜드오브올이나 필립글래스를 더 좋아하는데 왜 올림픽 프리로 로켓맨을 선택했는지 보면 볼수록 알수있을 거 같아요. 이런 프로그램은 아마도 nathan chen이 어느 선수보다 잘 보여줄 수 있는 스타일이고, 고전적 피겨에 힙합 적용된 올림픽 프로그램은 거의 드물어서 오래오래 회자될 것 같습니다. 힘과 스피드가 넘치고 동작이 간결하고 군더더기없고 음악과 동작이 하나로 연결돼요. 평창때의 아쉬움을 이렇게 엄청나게 이겨냈네요! 엄청난 운동능력과 고난도 기술, 음악성과 표현이 어우러진 최고의 연기입니다 진심으로 감동받았습니다
I haven't watched skating in a while, but weirdly, Sarah Hughes' skate that won her the gold in Salt Lake came up yesterday, and this one came up today for me. I remember leading up to this, people compared Nathan to Michelle Kwan, with all of the weight of expectation coupled with a (perceived) failure in Pyeongchang (I maintain that he kind of needed to implode to rebuild, but that's for another day). However, when I watch this, I see the same freedom that Sarah Hughes had that made her so great in that long program. Unlike Nathan, she really WASN'T the best skater in that competition, but I remember watching it live...that kid had JOY. She was there to skate her best in the Olympics, and did it. She skated like she had nothing to lose. It was awesome to watch her. But Nathan is next level because he WAS the best. He had ALL the weight of expectation, and he still skated with joy and like he had nothing to lose. Incredible.
Can't stop watching his performance. Truly amazing.
Almost a month later and countless viewings on my part... Nathan Chen is an amazing athlete and performer. An Olympic Gold medal so well deserved!
Just watch this program again . Can't count anymore how much I have watch this . But this time in a big sreen t.v. , he is more stunning and breathtaking looking at the big screen. Too bad he was not at the world. Missed him so much.
I already miss him... This is the moment I fell in love🥰💕
bravooooo Nathan Chen...😃❤🧡💚💙💜👍👍👍👍👍👍
After watching 2022 Gold saw his 2018 competition and it made me cry. I feel many like me find his sweet soul relatable. We fall. We get up. And wow. How beautifully we get up after a number of falls sometimes. And inspire the world along the way. No wonder the heart and soul. Within his performance that won him the gold. It wasn't just in his winning. It was going thru it all. Thanks for the kind reminder sweet angel.
It is so beautiful, incredible, unbelievable skater, we are so proud of you 👍
Nathan has been on top of the podium since 2018 Olympic and this was just the perfect exclamation to being number#1! He just kept getting better every year, truly once in a lifetime skater to have watched.
I Keep rewatching it 😍😍😍😍
Es un placer disfrutar sus programas!!!!!!!!
Да, космос! Сотый раз смотрю
I love his little celebration dance 🕺
00:55 2:29 Perfect jump to the music. It's amazing.
Pure joy to be able to watch a stunning performance in the Olympics. Nathan is so athletic and such a skillful dancer.
I started ice skating a couple weeks ago and now that I rewatched Nathan’s performance I admire him and others figure skaters so much, when I first watched figure skating performances I thought “I could do that too” “That looks easy to do” and now that I know how ice feels, the balance, the core strength, the legs, the amount of dedication that you have to put to get to that level… As soon as I stepped a foot on the ice I was so humbled… I obviously know that I’ll never get to any of the figure skaters level but i just enjoy being on the ice and that’s what matters to most to me.
I love Yuzuru. And I think Nathan is definitely gold worthy. He’s done so much that a person cannot do in figure skating and he pushed it to new heights. He has his own style. And he’s definitely artistic
I certainly agree!
@@junker_PES 😂😂🤡🤡
I disagree 😃
@@junker_PES I came to watch his skating bcz I was just curious abt gold medalist's skating..oh boy..he is done for me.never ever I want to come here..and I amn't even hanyu fan.. I am just a casual watcher bt I have eyes and taste too😊
@@junker_PES So true. Nathan took men's figure skating light years ahead, not just technically with so many quads, but how he incorporated them into innovative programs. He proved you could skate big technically without sacrificing the artistry.
Electrifying! I've been watching this daily to feel better about the world.
The same here
And the same here
Me too!
Me too, forever on replay, best comeback ever
sameeee😭
For me Nathan Chen's Olympics performances are the most positive influence given to US this year. I agree with the comment below by May Vang too... Launched excellently on the. music... thank you.
SO well-deserved. I don't know why NBC took most of their Olympic skating videos down. Before the Olympics was even over, Nathan's SP video had over 4.5 million views, and his LP video had over 6 million views!
I was so mad that I couldn’t find Nathan’s videos
Lawsuits over the music
@@fivecatlife8600 but Nathan's was applauded by artists that owned music rights
@@donnal.padilla4336 🤷♂️
@@fivecatlife8600 No, more like NBC’s greed, wanting people to pay for viewing on their website
Great, great,great!! From Moldova with very great respect and love💘
Thank you, Janna from Moldova, for rejoicing with Nathan Chen and his fans.
4年前の忘れ物を取りに来ました
Hahahahahha. I like japanese kidding.
Still watching in 2024!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
❤the footwork…no other skater comes close to him❗️Nathan’s smile was beautiful…I’m overjoyed he won the Gold‼️ Yale is your next goal! You will do well because you are soo smart‼️
I was so surprised and amused when nathan did the 3:56 part; the front was so elegant and the ending was so memorable
I think I held my breath the whole time. Such a joy to watch Nathan but also the other skaters. Japanese skaters so kind and graceful. Nathan Thank You. You have brought a new light to Figure Skating.
Bravo. May Yale bring You to an exciting new journey. Thank You to Your Parents especially Mom and Your Siblings and all the Coaching staff. So very proud of You.⛸️🇺🇲🥇
Thanks
Fun Fact: Except for Jason Brown who had no quads in his programs, Nathan is the only men's skater at the '22 Olympics who skated two clean programs back-to-back with +GOE on every element and no deductions. Just another reason he's the best EVER. He's also the only skater to land 9 quads across three programs at the Olympics ( team SP, men's SP & men's LP). Amazing.
In Women's program it was Anna Scherbakova who skated two clean programs and got gold medal. Congratulations to both of them. They deserved their victories 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥇🥇💐💐
@@anahitmusic8536 Yes!
And Hanyu has not done two clean programs since 2015. That is I believe because he had to skate more difficult programs to compete and he is unable to do them.
@@howardchan6167 Yes, Hanyu is unable to do them. He's never been able to skate at Nathan's level. Hanyu has only ever been consistent with three quads. At four quads, he often makes mistakes. At five quads, fatigue sets in halfway through the LP, and he makes lots of mistakes. He's never had a lot of stamina. That's why he only ever attempted five quads once in his career at the 2019 GPF. Fatigue set in quickly, and the program started to fall apart. Halfway through, his energy was so tapped out that he basically dropped all his presentation, skating listlessly around the rink. For that LP, he only scored 100 technical points and 94 PCS for a total of 194. He wasn't even close to cracking 200 because he got so much -GOE for mistakes. In contrast, Nathan scored 129.14 in technical and 95.78 for PCS, totaling 224.92 in the LP. He crushed Hanyu by 44 points at that competition. Even with five quads, Hanyu couldn't beat Nathan because Nathan's base value is so much higher, and Nathan is FAR more consistent than Hanyu.
Here's something you might not know. Hanyu has only ever skated two clean programs back-to-back just TWICE in his 12-year career: at 2015 NHK and the 2015 GPF. That's it. Even prior to that, Hanyu was a very inconsistent skater. In fact, he never won BOTH of this Grand Prix assignment competitions in a season until the 9th year of his career, the season AFTER Peyongchang. Leading up to the Sochi Olympics, he lost both his Grand Prix assignment competitions. The season after winning gold in Sochi he lost both of his Grand Prix assignment competitions AGAIN, along with his World title. In his 12-year career, Hanyu has skated in 43 international competitions but won only 17 of them. That's a 40% win rate or winning just 4 out of every 10 competitions. That's a losing record. Even after winning gold in Sochi. commentators would often talk about his inconsistency.
In contrast. Nathan has a win rate of 73% or winning over 7 our of every 10 international competitions across his career, losing just 6 competitions in 6 years. That's the highest win rate of any skater in the modern era (post-1970). As you probably know, in the last 5 years of Nathan's 6-year career, he lost just twice for a win rate of 88%. In the last 4 years of his career with three undefeated seasons, Nathan lost just once for a 92% win rate. That's because Nathan is a FAR better and more consistent skater than Hanyu. Other skaters also have much better and winning records over Hanyu's losing record: Plushenko (68% win rate), Yagudin (61%). Hanyu has always been inconsistent. That's also why he never had even one undefeated season.
@@L1623VP I watched the 2019 GPF and it was not pretty. Basically Hanyu was not able to lift his legs and grasped for air at the end. I believe it was only one of a few occasions he tried 4Lz. The funny thing is if he can't do 4Flip and 4Lz consistently why try to hit 4A. I guess he wants to be recognized for something if he can't beat Nathan.
So so so so happy for Nathan for winning GOLD! Much deserved.
Фантастический прокат! Безконечно можно смотреть на этого фигуриста! Спасибо и браво!🌈👏👏👏
Great skating and choreography! Have rewatched this so many times, it is so moving
おめでとう！🥇やったね。Super Cool 😎だったよ、チャンプ💪
I love reading all these comments! I'm humbled and moved by Nathan and his growth and his gentlemanliness... but most of all his coach Rafael Artunian!! Such a great mentor and dad figure! Their kiss and cry is so full of emotion but they don't show it too much!
Congratulations to Nathan Chen for receiving a belated second gold medal as part of the team event now that team ROC has been disqualified.
No fue china fue Rusia
@@jeannettejimenezozuna2203 In this Olympic sense, ROC stands for Russian Olympic Committee.
Nathan is the best 🔥!
Perfection!
Nathan Finally winning his Olympic Gold Medal was the best moment for me watching these games. And him doing it with a record breaking short program, which gave him another record to his name was just amazing. He without any doubt whatsoever is the absolute best.

Magnificent! Thank you for all your hard work and for thrilling us with the results, Nathan Chen!
I haven’t watched this video for 3 months and watched again today, I still got goosebumps and am totally touched 😭
His jumps and routine is so in sync with the music. I love the surprise switch to hip hop music and moves. So much swag and style! This program really stands out among all the other classical and pop music while pushing artistic boundaries. He is the only one who got standing ovation from the whole audience!
Agreed! I normally don't care for hip hop music but it fit so perfectly with this routine. A number of people I know who normally don't care to watch figure skating saw this video and excitedly said ""He's great. Are all skating routines like this?"
@@bereasonable8018 I would say that this is quite revolutionary and really pushing artistic boundaries for figure skating. Glad to hear that people seem more interested in figure skating now because of this😊
Agreed!
It’s a hip hop version of a well-known classic rock song.
his taste in art genres are superb!
Next level!!! 👏
I love how genuinely happy Shoma is for Nathan. ♥️
If I am not wrong,Shoma is Nathan 's fan
Shoma is awesome.
@@xiaowanzi4183 I’ve heard that too.

I loved the way his costume looked like a version of a Star Trek uniform--matched the space theme. Great performance!
I thought it was a nice touch too. It really made me think of Sulu and Ohura. Both TV trailblazers. 👍
I agree!😇😁
Absolutely 😊
He really enjoyed himself! 💕💕 congratulations!!!
Truly Tremendous!
Watching you performing with so much joy and passion, made me smile
It seems to me that even his competitors were happy that he won. I liked sportsmanship in men's figure skating, their respect to each other. And this competition was so cute and amazing. Without drama and unfairness. Thanks to all of them we got so many positive emotions. And this Olimpic Season is named after Nathan Chen. He has been unbeatable and wonderful for all these four years. Thanks for emotions, Nathan. Love from Kazakhstan ❤️
So true. Men’s singles is much more enjoyable to watch than women’s singles. So many dramas, scandals and nervous breakdown in ladies’ event. It’s no more an olympic competition but a shitshow.
@@yolandaguo7153 agree with every single word)
@@yolandaguo7153 so so true. There is way more respect and sportsmanship among the male skaters. Competition? Yes. But the atmosphere among the different skaters is way more relaxed and friendly
Glad to see that the three Japanese skaters, which included the great Hanyu, applauded Nathan's performance. I am glad that his coach stuck to the same program as this is not the first time that Nathan has performed this. It is the same with the short program which was performed in 2021.
The men are more adult about their emotions. No drama, no tantrums.
the GRIN on nathan's face! ik a lot of people were dissatisfied w this performance in favor of others, but i just can't see how you'd miss out of the excellent energy here! nathan chen handled this unique performance amazingly; none had me on the edge of my seat, or gave me chills like this one!! what a memorable performance to have me coming back to watch it again after so long!!!
O🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Натан Чен действительно как комета прошёлся по льду в течение 4 лет, сильное, не похожее на других фигурное катание, своя харизма, свой стиль, ни капли сомнения в своё дело, уверенность, мощь, вкус во всём. Рада за Арутюняна, каждый тренер мечтает о таком ученике, с котором он может себя проявить как тренер во всей красе. Классный тандем!
Thanks Nathan, USA loves you!
We still see in olimpics an elegantly only but this is masterpiece!! Not only elegant, but modern and swag and 3 times change the music, oh love it!!
