full twisting double back in an era that had no springs on the floor? one of the strongest athletes to sacrifice her body (in all senses) to the sport. Mukhina forever!
I just love watching her... She was amazing..and was treated with unfair and injustice. She ia in a better place now...where no one can do her any harm. . RIP beautiful angel
So beautiful....I love the middle part of this routine, the beautiful choreography. She was truly stellar...makes me feel so sad whenever I watch her:(
Splendid. Older gymnastics is far more beautiful to me. All the routines and moves look the same now. Also, I loved the simplicity of the leotards - you could just focus on the beautiful gymnastics. Mukhina was so incredible.
Елена Мухина была невероятной гимнасткой. Она была такой вдохновляющей!!!Солнечное обаяние, очарование и нескончаемая прелесть. Царствие небесное и райских садов великой гимнастке!!!
Елена - спортсменка, гимнастка, а красоте движений и грации у неё должны учиться балерины! Пусть смотрят записи выступлений Лены; хорошо, что они остались!
@ralucagymnast I also love the part to Dr Zhivago music, the epitome of Soviet artistry, I also agree that her story is one of the greatest tragedies in gymnastics history....
I never knew that???? still i'd like to see the gymnasts of today perform their double twisting doubles on this kind of floor.......the bounce here is nothing like today
Yelena you were an angel and contributed so much to the sport. I wonder what happened to that coach, not her coach, the one that pushed her into trying that skill (even though she was very tired and recovering from an injury), that ultimately made her a quadriplegic.
Nothing happened at that moment. They all tried to hide the truth, how she injured herself. No one gave a damn on her life. If she couldn't get medals....let it be. Shame!
Why did gimnastics use to look like dancing... They seem to do it effortlessly... Nowadays the gymnasts seem much more strained. Mind you, I know the sport is hard as war and causes a lot of strain... But I rarely see routines this beautiful these days. Even among the best teams and the gold medallists.
Well it is called artistic gymnastics. They are supposed to be but modern gymnastics don’t get the graceful and artistic part of the sport. It kinda makes me sad gymnast don’t know how to make their floor routines flow
Now it’s all about who can outdo each other with circus tricks. I don’t care for bb as well. BB has lost the grace also. Basically, it is becoming men’s with music.
The gymnasts then did an hour of ballet dancing every day, which made them able to perform gracefully as well as powerfully. The girls were almost like fairies, tiny, beautiful and seemingly weightless - their powers pure magic. Just wonderful!
What is the name of that beautiful tumble where her legs elegantly part at the end of her flip? It is so beautiful and you see nothing like it in present times. For me, tumbling was more beautiful then.
If you use your hands on the floor that's an Arabian front handspring step-out, so I guess this would be like an aerial-Arabian front handspring (I'm just making up the term, don't know if it has a name of its own...). I've seen other gymnasts doing that before, like in the early 70s
Estoy de acuerdo, no la vi cometer errores. Si Nadia no cae de la barras asimétricas, lo más probable que le hubieran dado el triunfo. Nadia ESTÁ sobre valorada. Las rutinas de Nadia no tenían ningún grado de dificultad, como las de Elena Mukhina. .
Her story makes me mad and sad, she begged to stop, she begged them to not remove her cast, she new that T.S was too much for her and her heart was shattered. So unfair, she had no choice
The real greatest gymnast of all time.. graceful yet strong, truly beautiful to watch. Rest in peace Elena.. you will never be forgotten.
What an amazing talent she was. Elena deserves the hall of fame.
Such a nice girl and gifted gimnast díd not deserve the tragic life she had. Rest in peace in heaven at last, my sad Angel. 😥💐💕💕💕
БЛАГОДАРЮ !!! За то , что помните и любите Елену Мухину !!!
Невероятная красота исполнений всех элементов браво лена браво тебя помнят любят

The most beautiful and graceful routines, what a wonderful sense of movement and style!
There should be a movie done about her.She is amazing to watch.
Here's a docu about her.

I would watch it also
But who'd play her?
@@vitorrocha9298 in this day and age they would have to be black and transgender
@@leightonsteven7059 lol, I guess you're right. so... Simone Biles?
Elegant ballerina with wonderful athletic ability
So beautiful....I love the middle part of this routine, the beautiful choreography. She was truly stellar...makes me feel so sad whenever I watch her:(
I feel sad too.

double tuck to end followed by a beautiful jump. just glorious. a champion forever. RIP
She was the strongest gymnast of her era.
No spring floor back in 78'. One really had to work for those doubles off those mats.
incredible point
so beautiful, such a loss, such a crime
Hope you are in Heaven sweet Elena xx
Rest in peace angel 🙏
Изящная, лёгкая, воздушная, пластичная, сильная, непревзойденная, Великая Леночка Мухина! Сейчас чемпионки тяжёлые, мужеподобные, когда прыгают, подмостка трясется! 2022 г. Женская гимнастика стала акробатикой.
Елена Мухина была невероятной гимнасткой. Она была такой вдохновляющей!!!Солнечное обаяние, очарование и нескончаемая прелесть. Царствие небесное и райских садов великой гимнастке!!!
TODAVÍA NO SE HA LEVANTANDO UNA GIMNASTA CON EL TALENTO Y ELEGANCIA DE ELENA MUKHINA.
The BEST 100%.
Amazing full twisting double to open with. I think she was the only gymnast able to perform this skill in 1978.
Kenia Madok 9
Kenia Madok Yes, she was. The double full in is called after her
Qué elegancia estética, qué belleza en la ejecución de Mukhina.
Супергимнастка !!! Алёнушка !!!
MUY POR ENCIMA DE la nadia.
Es una de las rutinas más hermosas que he visto.
La mejor hasta hoy!!!
Елена - спортсменка, гимнастка, а красоте движений и грации у неё должны учиться балерины! Пусть смотрят записи выступлений Лены; хорошо, что они остались!

Elena MUKHINA, una obra de arte en movimiento.
Умница...умница
Amazing, Elena!
I'm delighted with this gymnast
wow it totally flowed

King Hill it was her coach pushing her so much. He died in Italy of lung cancer shortly after her death
Nothing happened at that moment. They all tried to hide the truth, how she injured herself. No one gave a damn on her life. If she couldn't get medals....let it be. Shame!
She was better than Olga and Nadia. RIP
Yeah, you're totally right!
I'm not sure, but she is genial! Fact!

Escucha, I couldnt agree more. Every word you say is exactly like I feel and all the routines and moves look the same.

Foi uma perda irreparável para o esporte mundial!!!
Wow!

Elena was at Nadia's level and she could have been even better than she already was
Estoy de acuerdo. Las rutinas de Nadia no tenían tanto grado de dificultad que las de Elena.
Pero,, cría fama y acuéstate dormir .
@@SM-mn1hj "pero cria fama y acuestate a dormir"?.
Traduccion?
@@ceciliaolivieri5395 "Raise fame and go to sleep" IT is a saying that fame work s for you
She was more better what Nadia
NADIA was perfect as a child...
Леночка!!!
Fue la única hasta que le ganó en el mundial.a Nadia.
Desgraciadamente ejercitando el salto

When I look at her, I realized how overrated Nadia was. I don't care if she won more medals or about what anybody sais, Elena deserved a perfect ten

Лена такой больше небкдет лена жстэтически красиво все делала
No me parece posible hacer una pelicula sobre Lena.
Un gran documental con estos videos si.
Pero pelicula.....nadie puede interpretar su papel.
