@@Adriana-vp1rm I'm an atheist. So I dont't believe in god or gods or angels etc. I the same way I know that heart is just a muscle and every psychological process happens in our brain. But these are words that are in the common language, so I do use the word "heart" despite I know its real task, and I do use "angels" to describe G&G simply because I'm unable to find another word to describe them on and outside the rink. This is not a critic on your belief, only I try, maybe badly, to explain you why "angels" are used for them. If you find for me another word I will thank you and will start to use instead of it. Sincerely, without polemics, humbly, Carlo.
I mourned along with the world when Sergei died. Sergei and Ekaterina were magical. Powerful, graceful, elegant and passionate. I am very thankful to still be able to watch them. They will always be in a class of their own.
This was devastating. Sergei never should have died. This is so wrong. God bless the cast who worked with him. You all lost a family member as well as colleague. Rest in peace Sergei.
i’ve been on an ice skating binge lately, and the day after watching a g&g video.. i began having some chest pains and jaw pain. i have a history of heart disease in my family and have been having a difficult time dealing with that mortality as i get older. i don’t know why i’d never thought to do it before but i made an appointment with a cardiologist for the first time… thank you sergei, thank you katia, for sharing your artistry while you were with us.
Good afternoon all, all the years I watched Sergei and Ekaterina and was for me so sad to hear of his loss, you gave me great inspiration in my own career, all of the people here, I also had skated, (rollers), and always watched all of you competing, all in good love and sportsmanship, you gave me many inspiration for my competitions, but you are the best of all, I still do watch all those championships on old video tapes, my love , warmth and compassion to you all, you are the inspiration for many skaters to come, all of you, you are the best, and our thoughts always with Ekaterina 🥰, Johann
I never got to see him during real life time I wish I would have but I was into watching women single figure skating at that time I hadn't got used to watching pair skaters, it kind of scared me watching pair skaters at first especially if they hurt one another during skating but after I got accustom to pair skaters than I enjoyed what it was about.
Sergei y Katherine estaban tan unidos que su patinaje técnico y artístico era insuperable, además de su interaccion elegante y delicada. Adorablemente únicos!!! ❤❤❤
They wouldn't have agreed if they couldn't handle it. This was their way of letting the fans know the tour would continue, without seeming disrespectful to Sergei, like they'd gone on without him.
Sergei amaba tan tiernamente a su esposa que aunque se haya ido demasiado pronto, el amor no muere nunca y se vé que le está ayudando a seguir con su vida profesional porque se le vé feliz y con tanto éxito como cuando patinaba con él. Con Beroeb obtiene las máximas puntuaciones también. No dudo de la calidad de Beroeb porque es extraordinario y Katia forma una pareja de patinaje con él fuera de lo común. Dá gusto ver cómo se complementan y las altas puntuaciones que consiguen. Pero estoy convencida que es el amor de Sergei el que la ayuda también a conseguirlo, ya que no hubiese podido remontar tan pronto por ella misma al quedarse sin su Sergei. Daria le dá vida también porque es el vivo retrato de su padre. Deo gratiae.
@@toxic-low-key-ghost7934 yea. The cast were being interviewed in Lake Placid, where they were practicing for a show when Sergei collapsed. This aired probably within a few DAYS after he died when I think about it.
@@toxic-low-key-ghost7934 There's nothing wrong with that. In my country, there was a famous celebrity who died in his sleep at 27. His colleagues in the industry especially the ones he worked with in variety show immediately gave televised ributes a few days after he passed away. It was just their way of paying tribute and recalling all the memories they had of him.
I hope they were Christians, because if that is so, Katia will see her beloved Sergej again when Jesus comes back to rapture all of us christians ... I myself lost 2 beloved ballroom dance partners to death: my beloved younger brother and M., a man whom I danced with like Katia and Sergej skated .. I KNOW THIS PAIN SO WELL .... and the heart never stops bleeding ......... GOD BLESS ALL OF THEIR SOULS .... and all who are reading this ..... until we all have each other back again .. in Jesus' Holy Name, Amen. "There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain ..." Revelation 21:4
Well, they were Orthodox. As for Christians, I don't think they were. According to Katia's book that she wrote, they didn't really live as Christians. They had pre-marital sex and she was for abortion. She wrote that she wanted to get an abortion with Daria, but her mom and Sergei convinced her to keep the baby. She thought it was too soon to have a baby while at the top of their career. And Katia herself did not live as a Christian woman even after Sergei died. She had affairs after he died and Daria turned out not too good in many ways. Of course she didn't have her father in her life and that's sad and her mother traveled a lot with skating. Their is a lot to appreciate about them though. They were great, talented skaters, but I don't think Christians. In a way I understand. They came from a eastern European communist country. I did too. So I know how it is. True Christians were very heavily persecuted (as my family was) for being Christians. And in Russia, even more so. In many ways, it's still the same. I think their is still pretty much persecution for true Christians in Russia.
@@biancahotca3244 It doesn't surprise me to hear that. Katia had a dream life since she was born and got spoiled, but ofcourse it is her character too. She was selfish. I'm shocked to hear a wife is even talking about abortion. This is worthy of death penalty. If u want to abort a child, demons enter the child and cause mental issues. As for Katia, she was very selfish, spoiled, and lacking empathy in general. But I also think, she is not a bad person. Do u know if it is true that 20 million Christians were killed in the 80s in Russia?
@@Adriana-vp1rm I've never heard that, but it could be true. Abortions were very common in Eastern Europe, but it is true that abortion is murder. I've never heard of that, so many Christians being killed in Russia during the 80's, but not surprised if it did happen. Your name is very common in my country. My sister has the same name : )).
Los Ortodoxos en Rusia son como una religión católica y cristiana, ( no son ni chicha ni limonada) ES la religión que acepta toda clase de personas, puede decirse que es aceptada por el gobierno comunista ruso (una careta de satanás que se puede hacer libremente lo que se quiera). Pero cada cual tendrá que dar una cuenta delante del Creador. Dice la palabra de Dios que unos irán a condenación eterna y otros a salvación eterna. PERO LOS QUE HAN ACEPTADO A JESUCRISTO Y CREIDO EN EL Y EN SU SACRIFICIO DE MORIR EN LA CRUZ POR NOSOTROS LA HUMANIDAD, Y LAVARSE EN LA SANGRE DE CRISTO Y NOS REDIMIÓ. EL SEÑOR VENDRÁ Y NOS ARREBATARÁ Y ESTAREMOS POR SIEMPRE CON EL Y NO SEREMOS JUZGADOS. EL QUE NO SE VAYA EN EL ARREBATAMIENTO SERÁ JUZGADO, Y SE ABRIRAN LOS LIBROS Y EL QUE NO SE HALLÓ INSCRITO EN EL LIBRO DE LA VIDA SERA LANZADO AL LAGO DE FUEGO QUE ARDE CON AZUFRE, JUNTO CON SATANÁS CON LA BESTIA (ANTICRISTO) Y EL FALSO PROFETA.
@@biancahotca3244 Orthodox are Christians. I am Orthodox myself and very religious. I read her book as well and she did mention religion several times and spoke to her priest after Sergei's death and so forth. But I know how religion is discouraged in communist countries and I'm sure that had an effect on her relationship with Orthodoxy.
It could have been what it appeared to be, but I believe it was either poisoning or a curse, (conjuring of demons). More like it considering his looks, and his charisma. Someone in comments said Sergei was poisoned during his previous injury.
Sergie was let down by Russia and katia sorry knowing his dad had early death sergie should have had normal tests.but no skating was .more important. 🇬🇧
Fadeev (Sergie's close friend) said in one interview: Sergie wanted to finish a sportsmen carrier. But Katia and Marina Zueva pressed him to continue earning money.
@@jobastana finally someone says this. In an interview after his death Katia admitted “I was a skater first then a woman then a mother” skating was more important than anything. In the last video of their performance to requiem, you can see how bad he looks, pale, out of breath and his face looks so thick and swollen. If we can see this through a phone screen, then surely she saw being with him all the time. She took a chance on him thinking nothing would happen and it backfired. Also in another interview Katia said she had a feeling of guilt before dasha and Sergei’s mum. She knew he was unwell but earning money was the most important thing. When Sergei was at home in Russia, his mother looked after him and watched his health remembering what happened to Sergei’s father but when they went back to America… And most of their time was spent in the states so Sergei’s mum could not monitor him. Sergei was also very homesick and wanted to live in Russia, not in the states but again… Katia pressed him to continue working and work was in the states
@@toxic-low-key-ghost7934 I keep seeing your toxic ass comments everywhere (really living up to your username lol). You keep speaking of Sergei like he was this meek, little sheep who couldn't stand up for himself and of Katia like she was just always using and manipulating him. Don't you see how disrespectful that is? We don't know what went through Sergei's head, but Katia said that he wanted to skate again in the 1998 Olympics to make up for the little mistakes he made in the long program in the 1994 Olympics (which makes sense since he was a perfectionist). He was working out up to three times a day in an attempt to strengthen his back and I'm sure he would have put his foot down if he was in so much pain that it was unbearable to continue skating. Sure Katia might have been pushing a bit, and Sergei would undoubtedly do anything to make her happy, but I don't think he would push himself way beyond his limits .Athletes tend to push through pain and no one knew just how serious his health problems were. His first, clear symptom was fatal. He was also a stoic and level-headed guy who wanted to support his family and make a great life for them all. You keep blaming Katia for what happened and it's not right!I What happened to him was was inevitable, and incredibly tragic and unfair. It's clear that since Sergei passed that it has been incredibly hard for her and she tried her best, but she's only human. She isn't perfect, but she's incredibly strong and doesn't deserve people making cruel assumptions about what happened and everything she has done since.
@@Stivag99 alexandrr fadeev said in an interview that Sergei wanted to quit sports but marina and Katia pushed him to continue Artur Dimitriev also said that at the Olympics, he saw Sergei very pale and struggling in trainings. Thank you for your lovely comment to me though, have a great day
There will never be another couple like G&G!! They were truly magic on and off the ice.
He is a true angel, he will always be remembered as a great man, no one will ever match his talent and charisma.
They always live in our hearts dear Sergei
С ВАМИ СОГЛАСНА ПОЛНОСТЬЮ.
Why angel?
People don't turn into angels when they die. They r either in hell or heaven depending on wether they were saved or not saved.
Angels are lower in rank than humans bytheway.
Only archangels are special, those that have special assignment in heaven. Michael is one of them. He is the top, and very near God.
Ordnery angels in heaven are servants.
They serve people in heaven. They guard us here 2, upon orders from God and Him solely 4 if u pray 2 angels u r sinning.

Altho tragic, It is beautiful that, decades later, his story is still being told. Especially to people like me who had no idea about his story.
Aww when Paul said Sergei would call him Pashka, that made my heart smile.
Heartbreaking video. The entire world suffered the day Sergei died.

Somehow the interviewers are so weird...
I don't like the blonde interviewer. There's NO reason to smile during this, Ms. disrespectful and insensitive.
I thought i was the only one to notice it.
Heartbreaking why dear god ???
Ojalá Sergei haya clamado a Dios en el último momento de su vida.

So Sad that you lost skaters in the crash
Peace, with love,,Dale ❤❤❤😂
The bad quality of this tape makes it impossible to understand what they are saying.
I don’t have a problem. Maybe in other places there are more than American accents on TV ?
It's true, the quality is pretty bad. I wish it was clear. It's a gem to have it.
