It’s funny she decided to claim the double back somersault as her skill when Maria Filatova and Olga Korbut also competed the skill in this competition 🤣
Olga Korbut talked about this in an IG interview back in the late 80s... she said that Nadia plainly ignored her when they crossed paths in between events - she said you might nod or say "hi" to your competitors, but Nadia was like a robot... There was a lot going on with the Iron Wall, both within and out of it, so maybe that's why they didn't interact - it changed completely after '89..
For all of her technical perfection and immaculate presentation, I always found Kim's performances lacked that extra magical something! When I think of the all great Russian female gymnasts of the 1970's, Kim is not even in my top 20.
She was one of if not my favourite gymnast but each to his own. One interesting thing Nelli said that her sister was more talented than Nelli but did not have the perseverance to put in the vast amounts of time and training to be a top flight Olympic competitor.

Um bem merecido 10! ❤ Sem passos extras, dificuldade acima, carisma, arte e graciosidade 💖
Wow - what a gymnast she was! Stunning routine!
Perfect 10 10 10 👏
So balletic back then. Shows us the true orgins of gymnastic. ❤
Estética total. Armonía!
Extraordinar. Inimitabil.
Quelle grâce chez cette gymnaste, je me souviens d'elle comme si c'était hier.
Nellie Kim é primorosa. A mais encantadora da sua geração.

Tumbling on about a one inch mat. No springs.
What’s the difference from then to now? With the floor quality
Does anyone know this song ?
"All 99 pounds of her." said Chris Schenkel. They used to have weigh-ins for gymnasts, like they were boxers?
Showing more than a little of the Olga Korbut influence.

Who won the gold medal
“all 99 pounds of her” is that supposed to be condescending??
I don't think so, just typical 70s commentators making unnecessary comments about women's bodies.
Now a days it would likely be a bad comment, but back then skinny and barely 100 pounds was the norm.
@@BonnieDragonKat 99 lbs actually was a lot for gymnasts back then.
Only if you are looking for something to be offended about
Gymnasts back then were smaller compared to today. Doesn't make it okay, it's just the way it was.
ahahah Romanians dind't congratulate her for scoring 10, they wanted 10 all for them
Well, they got the first ever 10. So, they'd been there and done it.

@@marwahussein666 oops. Thank you for that.
@@marwahussein666 I have to watch! I wonder why media only talk about Nadia when there were other participants that achieved the 10!
Today this routine would have a start value of 2.
