    I was obsessed with her in 2012 and wanted her to make the team so bad. It’s such a shame what happened to her. She was a decent all arounder but went into the Olympics injured so she only did vault. We had no idea but she was being abused the whole time. And then she fell during vault finals and the whole world made a joke out of her disappointed face after losing a medal she was almost guaranteed at 16 years old.

The whole time she's on the podium they're running the camera up and down from her face to the silver medal. They did that right through the playing of the Romanian National Anthem for the girl who won the gold trying to catch McKayla crying. This was despicable.
      And through all of that - there was no mention that I saw of the fact that she was competing with a broken toe - which would of course - still be broken when she was standing on the podium.

    Truly one of the greatest Vaulters of all time. Quite honestly she was hugely underrated on other events too. She was an incredible twister, and had tremendous power, coupled with grace and artistry. On FX and BB she moved so gracefully and beautifully.
    The fact that she (and all of our incomparable ladies) accomplished so much while being mistreated and openly abused by a broken & utterly corrupt USAG is nothing short of superhuman.

    I didn't get to follow her in the 2012 Olympics because I lost my parents in June and July of that year. I have watched the current Olympics with my little cousins. My 11 year old cousin Cora wants to learn how to do the ribbon thing.

    You were ridiculous McKayla and I mean that in the greatest way possible! I’m pretty positive you still are. The dedication and the heart and willpower to keep going after all you had to endure says a lot about you as a person. You were such a darling when you competed and you’ve grown into an amazing woman. I selfishly wish you would have competed longer, but you did it your way and I can respect that. This is a wonderful video.
