The comedy routine was pure brilliance, but at the same time I’m very impressed at the strength in his arms to be able to do what he did. I couldn’t support my body weight hanging by my arms for 30 seconds while doing nothing else !
back when everybody still had their sence of humor and didn't take everything so seriously. :) this makes my day edit- but it take a real master of the craft to do what he does. :)
Now if you did that you either seriously think you're the opposite gender or if you did it as a joke all the babies would cry cause it offends them. They have no problem pushing their thoughts and opinions on others even if it offends someone else. They want their feelings considered but won't do the same for others. Why do people feel the need to be combative and cry about everything...
So nice to everyone laughing.. probably til they cry!! We don't laugh enough anymore..please give us more Paul's in our world of such troubled times Bless you Paul for giving so much!!!❤️❤️❤️
I can't even imagine. I bought one of those chin-up/pull-up bars for the doorway and after a month I have gotten to where I can hang on for almost 10 seconds. And I just saw him hanging on the top bar by his feet alone at the 2:15 mark.
You’re just as bad by forcing a political statement out of this fun, harmless video. Have you considered enjoying things without complaining about the “olden days”?
Exactly! And people were free to laugh at how comically ridiculous it is. This is America, before the LGBT Thought Police bullies ruined that part of comedy for us.
Какой молодец!!! Первый раз встречаю такой вид клоунады!!! Ещё надо выполнить сложные элементы. Это колоссальная подготовка. Уважение и Восхищение этому таланту!!!
I find it hilarious as a gymnast and a really cool thing is The Olympics are happening right now and one of the girls from our gym just went so very exciting some of the things he does or like the slightest bit offensive but more just funny
Very true indeed.how I miss those days...the group LMNOP destroyed it. They are even in the Olympics now. winning female category. Funny, sad and true.
Just because no one told you they were offended doesn't mean they werent offended lmao And anyway, this isnt done in a mocking or derogatory way at all
@@atlandfrisk Stupid and false comment. This never happened nor would it happen even if you repeated this lie 100 times. stop playing the victim you are not. For "people" of your type, being harassed online is the least.
@@SuperBlobsterMan It would take a very rare male gymnast, I mean rare like a unicorn, to do rhythmic gymnastics. It requires extreme flexibility which male gymnasts simply do not have.
@@es78xx the only people i see that are offended in the commetns of this video is people like you crying about the old times Why is it that i have not seen anyone complain about what he does (as you claim we would do) but rather only people whining about this not being accepted anymore (it is because it isnt done with malicious intent or in a mocking way)
And that is so very sad. The only way it would be allowed is if it was someone who serious thinks they should be wearing those clothes as its part of their "identity" as they call it now instead of gender which is an assigned category... This world is so backasswards....
Just come across this guy 2021. Very funny. Would love more of this sort of stuff on TV. Reminds me of brilliantly funny Sat nite Tv back in the 80s n 90s.
You do realize that this PC cancel culture is an overcorrection for the centuries of conservative rule when marginalized people were shamed, imprisoned, and murdered, right? Hopefully the pendulum will swing to the middle and we can all live and let live.
@@eemoogee160 Using that logic there are a lot of “marginalized” conservatives who now have the right to lay siege to cities for months, burning, looting and murdering. Your comment is stupid as hell...
We all realize that doing these stunts "incorrectly" and without getting hurt requires more skill and strength than performing them "correctly" !! WOW PAUL !! Thanks for making me LOL today.......40 years later !!
I enjoy watching Hunt's comedy sketches. Why doesn't anyone do comedy these days? Because we all have to recalculate everything we do to money and efficiency? Maybe someone should calculate the amount of joy they bring us.
This guy is perfect in so many ways, excellent athlete, secure in his identity, and not afraid to cross dress for an act. For all the anti trans ppl in the comments who say we would be against this or take it too seriously, I just want to point out that we support people who express themselves however makes them comfortable. In his case, he was a great showman who happened to cross dress as an act. I wish I saw him back then, I mean I was still a baby but still. I was big into gymnastics but taught in a strict formal way that caused me to leave it. 😕
I remember the first time watching him come out laughing and thinking it was some comedy skit where he would fumble around then he would amaze everyone.
Love these old videos when nobody got "offended", "insulted" or accused of being racist, homofobic or anti feminist.. People are way to thin skined and have lost the ability to laugh and have fun..
Sheer genius! Unbelievable moves, unbelievable! He did incredible things as a clown but in reality they were were soooo difficult. I love this guy. If I had a small granddaughter who loved gymnastics I would register her in his academy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Not only that he performed well but he also executed and entertained everyone very well. Now that's a multi talented person.
I so enjoy his comedic routines! He has women gymnasts to the Trouble! He is so strong and so funny!!!!
The world needs more people like Paul Hunt.
We have Woke many in 2024... & they are not fun entertaining. They are Self fun indulgence....wonder what P.Hunt feels in 2024.
Very funny parody, by an obviously very skilled professional Gymnast, with brilliant comic timing, what a wonderful combination !
The best part of this video is that the commentators did not comment. Thank god! We were left to enjoy this very funny routine in peace. Genuinely funny, and he's very good!
Takes a phenomenal level of skill to do what he did - the reverse grab...... wow - brilliant.
Blew my mind!
I think Olga Korbut was one of the first to do that.
I came to this after seeing his beam routine, this is so funny but that man was truthfully an absolute athletic man
He discovered the female skills quite by accident. Male strength + female grace + a very generous helping of comedy = great routine!
I miss the 80's so much. The world we live in now is soul crushing.

Male gymnasts do routines on rings and parallel bars. That requires as much if not more strength than uneven bars.
@@RebeccaTaylorTillery Yeah rings require most upper body strength

Absolutely
I have watched many of Paulina Huntinova's routines but missed this one. He is a talented hoot. Love him. Thanks.
This is GOLD !
Laughed throughout, made my day...thanks for the share !
Paulina was definitely the winner.
It takes a lot of effort to be that good while looking that bad.
He got them legs, though, gotta give him that.
and he actually did some of the routines amazingly perfect
Hunt was an amazingly strong, talented, and intelligent gymnast.
So nice to everyone laughing.. probably til they cry!! We don't laugh enough anymore..please give us more Paul's in our world of such troubled times
Bless you Paul for giving so much!!!❤️❤️❤️
Hello friend, how're you doing today? ?
It takes a very professional skill to be able to do this.
I can't even imagine. I bought one of those chin-up/pull-up bars for the doorway and after a month I have gotten to where I can hang on for almost 10 seconds. And I just saw him hanging on the top bar by his feet alone at the 2:15 mark.
You have to be better than good to have the freedom to play like that. He's incredible!
Yep...some of those moves were legit done well...and those are NOT in the men's list of moves.
It's like being a goofy skier or rodeo clown
Класс! Спортсменка, комсомолка и красавица!!! 👍
The Victor Borge of the parallel bars. :D
Without the 'page turner' or Opera stars. 😆
pretty much how about a peanut butter sandwich lol
Yes, exactly what I thought.
@@nazdoa5113 ALL time classic
You could also say he's the Buster Keaton of the parallel bars XD
This guy is absolutely fantastic
Better than most gymnasts today. He's a genius.
Супер!
I wish there were more comedians like him now. :)
If you do that now.. Feminists will be at ur door the next morning
Now he'd be a real competitor in the women's event.
You think comedians making fun of men in women's clothes would go over well today LOL people are tooooooooo Woke lol
@@TsarOfRuss not feminists, gender ideologists will be crying “TRANSPHOBIA!”
Feminists endorse men wearing dresses 👍
He would be arrested for transfobia
I miss times like this. We used to actually be able to have fun and laugh in our country.
I was thinking the same thing as I watched the video. No way this routine could happen today. Some people would be trying to ban gymnastics.

This was Very skilled with a touch of Charlie Chaplin!
@Peter Rabbit to apply your rule to others drag greens and camp drag or transphobic
@Peter Rabbit How??
It’s a shame that most things today have to be labeled, it was extremely nice years ago when it was just like well less fun! Even if only joking
Exactly! And people were free to laugh at how comically ridiculous it is. This is America, before the LGBT Thought Police bullies ruined that part of comedy for us.
I fully agree. Chaplin would of loved this. If he'd seen it. When he was well enough. Unfortunately Chaplin sight was gone.
Thanks for uploading this gem...what a good quality for the 80ies.
Greetings from Germany🤗
That was brilliant. Can you imagine if this was 20 years later. He would win AGT!! That is real raw talent.
He is know my gymnastics coach at H.G.A (hunts gymnastics academy)he is a great coach even at his age
He's retired now. He closed H.G.A. in December of 2020 due to the Coronavirus. It's a shame.

Here I am in 2021 viewing this for the first time and enjoying it immensely. Thank goodness for video .
Oh that landing, tho!!! 😂
Still, amazing and hilarious to watch. How did I miss this when I was growing up?
The simpler days were full of laughs with nobody being offended
why would nyone be offended by this? just enjoy the video and stop whining
