This is the worst medical team I have ever seen, I am sorry… they seemed to really take their time while she could have been seriously injured, maybe even for life. Thank god I saw in the comments she is ok now… :(
My first thought too. They are so useless! Slow to respond, then they have her sitting upright when she should have been lying down with her head stabilized. Their actions (or should I say, inaction) could have made an injury so much worse. Shame on them.
I've seen much worse handling in gymnastics unfortunately. Multiple times after potential neck injuries I've seen medical teams and coaches immediately roll gymnasts over, pull them to their feet (??? I guess to convince them to walk it off), etc. I will never understand how gymnastics coaches or medical personnel working at a dangerous sport don't know you shouldn't risk paralyzing the injured person by moving them

@@timtags honestly I still get moved to tears Every time I read about Elena Mukhina 😖😭
She was fortunate that her spine was aligned vertically when she compressed the floor. If she had attended the floor with a flexed or extended neck this would be a worse outcome. Google mechanisms of spine/neck injuries for more details. MD here.
It reminds me elena mukhina's accident. She was instantanely paraplegic after that ond died from complications years later. Hopefuly this gymnast had no conséquences. It was scary.
OMG had that floor mat had no spring in it she would probably be dead. She is so lucky! These women make it look so easy we forget just how dangerous this sport is.
If it had no spring, she wouldn’t be able to do a double front flip. Much of the tumbling could not be done on a hard floor. I was a gymnastics coach before the spring loaded floors were introduced. It completely changed the floor routines. Unfortunately, now with the emphasis on tumbling, the dance training gets neglected.
@@lisabaltzer4190 I totally agree. I’m 62 and was a gymnast myself. Tumbling has changed dramatically because of the spring floor, making it much more exciting but dangerous too.
Somehow I have always thought that such dangerous kind of sports are a stupidity to practice them.... boxing is another example..... For not any reasons I will encourage my children to do that
Yes but thats the risks they take because they enjoy it so much.. love.the bravery and would be proud to call my daughter or son a gymnast Honestly the sport is beautiful what the human body can do .
Women are always trying to be noticed. Also, during emergencies, especially when someone else is hurt, you see a lot of virtue signaling. These days hysterical crying and hugging strangers.

Exactly what I thought. Why did it take so long? This could be life threatening injury. It's her NECK, not her ancle!

Yes, I noticed that as well. They seemed to get to her late.
and yet she was fine, may be they knew what they were doing.
OMG- she was moving after that? Lawrd I cannot believe sne was not instantly paralyzed. This is such a dangerous sport.
She probably had some kind of head injury

Does she ever talk about this?
Cool
She was mine too but she left becuase of corona and now she has a baby
she's mine now
Oh wow, she’s mine too
The slow-mo replay was brutal😮😢😮
I'm glad she was okay after this fall. It seemed pretty scary watching it happen. I also say Rebecca Bross in the background and remembered her injury
She wasn't okay she was paralyzed
@@brooklyn.d2390 no she wasn't
@@brooklyn.d2390 She was not paralyzed. She was the Pan American champion in the vault just one year later.

She was my friends coach!!! 🥺
She is my gymnastics coach it’s amazing
Does she discuss this incident?
@@nothanks0082 I’m sure she may have mentioned it once but she probably doesn’t talk about it everyday, lol😂
The worse injury was the Russian girl who was pushed to do a man's move on the floor. She's now paralyzed
Elena Mukhina passed away in 2006 due to complications :(
Hope she was okay
Appears like her foot slipped going into the skill
God bless you Jessica. 🙏🙏🙏
Incompetent medical team.
Why did it take so long for help to arrive? Insanely absurd
Wrong Job, baby!
Бедная детка
If you watch it in slow motion, she literally bounces on her head. This could have caused a heck/ spinal injury. I hope she was ok.

Espero q ela se recupere

Head stand bounce sheesh
British Beth is watching with true fear 😨 I don’t blame them
She’s my coach
Does she talk about this incident?

But how did she survive?
@@Jolie_Trinh You can plainly see she didn't die. In fact, she competed at the Olympics 3 years later.

God was watching over her.🙏
really? then why did she fall on her head?
The worst medical standby ever
Not enough aid at each corner.. people readily available at all times.

Good one less snowflake
@Emil Galant fatal, not fetal. Fetal is a position a baby lies in lol And this girl didn't die

NEVER DO A BACKFLIP IT CRACKS UR HEAD AND U CAN NEVER BREATH!

Do you get points deducted for landing on your head.
That's not funny at all.🤨
5:57-6:12 the blond lady at Jessica's head is trying WAYYY too hard to be noticed.

Well maybe she’s the most experienced of the team.
