Karin is now 71yrs, its incredible to me where the time has gone.
Karin went on to become a medical Doctor with a speciality in spines, she invented a couple of spinal discs and is also world renowned for her many different types of research.
The Spinefoundation in Germany is named in her honour and she retired in 2012.
This is one remarkable woman.
She is surely one a kind.inspiration has just come to my mind.
I guess I need training to be able to do such matters,😊

Wow! Vintage gymnastics is a different breed
Much better lol
Just like most things. 😂
Literally a different sport
Because its all power snd grace directly from the athlete not worked through spring mounted equipment.
so much better and challenging
The way she so gracefully goes bar to bar is seriously impressive
Does anyone notice to judges face????!!!
@@twiggygirl6489what about them?
@@twiggygirl6489yessssss!!!! I thought the same exact thing!
@@jordanheath2011 the judge which is sitting near orange girl
Look at her face
She looks strange .
I don't even know if most people realize how hard most of her bar to bar work really is! I trained as a gymnast for years and she did things I couldn't have dreamed of. WoW!
I hurt my back reaching for the pringles on top of my fridge
Better start working out then
I get it.. Years ago I made the mistake of lifting with my back and not my knees, crushed my lower spine discs and shrunk 2 inches. So I have frequent back issues too.
@@rbarreira2 was a joke, I wish I even had pringles
😂
Lol 😂
My hubby slipped a disk getting out of the car 🤷♀️
Later she invented the first artifical intervertebral disc and led two different clinics as a qualified doctor. This woman is amazing.
Who is she then?
@@Matty-Travelsas per the very clear text in the video.. Karin Janz, Munich Olympics 1972.
I actually went and had a look for myself, and yep, you are 100% correct, she went on to become a Doctor and her speciality was in spines, she is world renowned for her research and inventions.
She worked in Berlin until retiring in 2012.
What an amazing woman.
I'd have expected her to be a patient after those moves on the bars😅
Физкультура лечит, а спорт калечит. Помните об этом, прежде чем заставлять своего ребенка заниматься спортом
You could barely hear the bars. She was so gentle and graceful. Incredible.
Unlike @iangunther
@@brozasaw63men don't do uneven tho their bar is literally different
@@brozasaw63He probably weighs like twice as much
@@skylerpolendina7517yeah they do parallel bars more
@@Vexxy197 yes but they're not made of the same material.
The upper body strength of the men and women that do this sport is actually insane. Incredible athletes.
It's not just about strength, physics plays a big role here too
physics plays literally no role@@andrew8877
Yes, but there's a very specific type of strength that gymnasts must condition their bodies for in order to get their body to be able to manipulate itself in order to take advantage of physics. Without the strength, they would not be able to control their actions enough to use physics to do different types of skills.
I love the little jingle noises as she peacefully did her routine
Wow...the dismount at the end, her body straight as a board in the air. 😮
Gymnasts today can't be straight as a board because most of them are black and they have behinds, unlike this young lady. She is ironing board flat.
Yeah, she was a human torpedo! Unbelievable
Its un real.
I've seen it several times now, and still say wow.
And rock-solid landing, too!
That judge: that mf is not real
Faide?
Did you swear tho? 🤣
I read that in the airplane ✈️ ladies voice 😅
Ok!! I thought I was the only one that noticed. The face is scary af
She's part of Ledgers joker squad but no mask required
Nah thats a demon. Look at the judge in green giving me chills
I was looking for someone who saw that too! She looks so creepy!😅
The dismount was amazing 👏 👏👏
The judge has the most terrifying face I’ve ever seen
I saw that!! How it is her face, who knows..?! 😮
It looks like a huge mouth with just dark black eyes…
The camera's not focused correctly. Most likely you are seeing an optical illusion.
😂
😂😂
Can't believe how perfectly straight her legs were through the whole routine, and that dismount was crazy! Perfect.
Those knees never bend she had them locked
And her feet are perfect too. It's as if it's effortless for her.
A mi me encantó la "entrada" o como se diga. Ese giro antes de tocar las barras, increible! 👏
The best program ever! What a talent!!
she didn't do anything?
Gymnastics in the 70s and 80s are much prettier to watch than today's. The artistry and elegance dominate whereas today it is all about power and really, really hard landings.
And this is why they are more muscled now otherwise, with the slim body of 70s and 80s, they would end up completely destroyed.
Ditto for figure skating. Nowadays it's all about jumps.
(If I remember correctly) Mary Lou Retton changed the game. 1984 Summer Olympics.
And what goes around comes around. I hear what a lot of you are saying, power moves are rewarded, but watch the Dutch, the Belgians, even some of the Russians and more - they are getting points from turning moves. Nobody spins like the Wevers’ on the beam! And Sanne won beam in 2016 doing that!! And now you must have more artistry on the floor and beam, it’s in the code now.
Oh I totally think it's the opposite
Impeccable! 👏👌Smooth as silk and with beautiful grace. Each touch of the bar was smooth like butter. And the landing...wow. That's art!
This young lady became a very well known Dr of Medicine and Research in Germany. A fascinating woman of many talents!

@@simones4939Thanks, now I'm 3 x as impressed. She's amazing!
Интересно
@@user-uz2vc1gc6v😊
omg! i was just wondering how/what these athletes do once they retire from sports and if they’re able to focus on anything other than training
I can feel my belly hurt just from this video, yet she does it so gracefully, making it seem effortless. That's just incredible.
she doesnt 'hit' the bar. with great abs that doens do a thing to your belly neither your ovaries. They were trained in skill, not in force. Any gymnast today, with the lack of smothness they have would break the hip
my balls 😭
That dismounted looked gorgeous ❤
You're saying vintage and I was there watching. What I see in 50 years ago is yesterday ❤
80% of this routine are now illegal moves, which changed the sport drastically. that’s why it’s vintage
I love vintage gymnastics and also how people kept quiet during the execution of the exercises. Sacred moments.
Yes, such respect for the gymnasts. You could hear as well as see their hard work.
@@kimquinn7728 мне 14 и после работы я ни то что такое не повторю, я еле как делаю домашнюю работу, а ведь мне ещë медведя кормить надо.
Why of course you do , won’t be seeing any of this weak stuff in today’s gymnastics, so sad for you
@@monabowman9715what are you even talking about 💀
Manners, something that has been gone not only in sports but daily life.
Anyone else think the woman at the back is smiling in the most terrifying way possible 💀
Why does she look like a demon lol
She looks like the aliens from They Live
Creepypasta face!
it’s 3 am and that just scared me so bad 😭
😂😂😂 💀
I cant stop watching her! So beautiful.
That first transition from high to low was insane
Bruh, she’s like a cat, especially at the end where she flew away from the bar like a fairy 💀💀💀
Im so glad im not the only one who thought that!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
she was a fairy
SHE WAS A FAIRY🧚♀️ 🧚♂️ 🧚
even comes with the quiet jingling sounds like when you put a bell on your cat's collar 🤭
That flip in between the bars in straddle was immaculate
Between the bars ! Hard to believe !
Чудо из чудес!
Outstanding, from her 1st rotating jump towards the 2nd bar til the last to the floor!
They moved so much faster in those days. I can understand WHY she went on to study the spine in all of its complexities after watching her routine, her lumbar takes a beating!! ❤
It's so clean. Not an ounce of momentum wasted. Every move was dialed in.
pure precision and grace.
She then went on in life to become a doctor and a professor. Remarkable young woman.
Brains and body. Most pp nowadays dont have any of those
@@flowrepins6663Not really true.😊
Потрясающе!!!! браво!!! Труд, Терпение, Воля и Желание Победить!!
What just happened? So graceful and fluid.
I wish I could walk as gracefully as she flies on those uneven bars.
Karin Janz won gold several times for East Germany in the seventies. She went on to become a medical doctor and was Chief Physician of clinics in Berlin from 1990 to 2012!
Nice
Thank you for listing her name and achievements! For some reason people just don't cover women's great work with the same attention to detail that they do mens!
What an absolute boss of a lady. Impressive
Thanks for her NAME!
She changed direction four times flawlessly.. I can’t imagine doing that or anything else she did
i cant even change directions flawlessly while walking
@@Akakiryuushinlmao it do be like that
It looks unnatural at the dismount, at least, as if an external force pulls her off the bar into it. Definitely some supernatural help there, from which side, is speculation at this point.
She even did a twist before landing
@@Akakiryuushin 😆😆😆😆
I’ve watched it multiple times and it perfection in motion just no words 👏👏👏👏👏👏
After 12.5 years of training, I have to say this is a 10-point perfect exercise! with heavy elements nowadays there are no such elements or rare ones wonderful thanks for the video
The strength it takes to look that graceful is insane. Her movements are ethereal and almost inhuman, very fairylike.
I agree, and her toes are perfectly pointed through the whole routine, honestly one of my favs
WHATTTT was that dismount ! Crazy !
That was a Hecht with a full twist. It was usually done from the high bar off the low bar.
100!
@@lsr2937 what does that mean
She's the real "Nations Fairy" look how elegant, flexible & flawless her performance was ✨💜
She looks like she was made for those bars. The perfection, swiftness, and seamless way in which she performed is everlasting.
The strength and timing needed for this incredible routine is immeasurable.
how she did that somersault (?) between the bars is fantastic !
She won the gold for bars at Munich. Such a beautiful routine! I miss the gymnastics from this era! 😿
I was gonna say she better have won the gold for that! That was flawlessly terrific!!!
@@ronyboylive6934 She won the sliver for bars in the event finals. She deserved gold!!
Saaaaaaaame.
Gymnast were fire back then wow
Почему судьи сидят в пол-оборота? У них типо есть более важные дела, чем оценивание участников?
Those moves are wonderful!
The dismount was next level
there is such authority in that initial leap, you immediately know she is something special

You commented this because you saw the rest of her routine. Stop trying to be profound
That's why my response was..."Plagiarism ❤️"
It was perfect
@@Ice_Wallow_ComeAlotwhy are you so pressed about a comment bro 😂
is anyone gonna talk about how that one judge looks like she’s a monster from a horror movie….
Finally
Was looking for this comment 😂😂😂
@@li_daria2468I thought I was the only one 😭😭
i have been watching for her face during all the routine😂😂😂
Omgggg thats what i was sayingg
Unbelievable talent!
the gracefulness and incredible amount of control and precision displayed in this is unmatched
I didn’t even know physics could do that
Regardez Nadia comaneci en 1976 aux jeux olympiques...
physics is turned off.
@@sownheard frr
It’s the finish for me. She did all that crazy flips and whatnot but exited out of the bars like it was nothing and with such elegance 🙌🏽🔥
Her routine is unique and beautiful to watch
This is just....wow! She's so effortless and just so graceful!!
I had to watch that twice. She came off that spring board, shot through the bars in a twist then dismounted in a phenominal way. Uppin the game
Посмотри Ольга Корбут
Cat-like
@@kegasegawhat does that have to do with this? Just because it's the only Russian athlete anyone remembers.
I think the comment was intended as "move over."
Incredible! So elegant & graceful too. Looks like a dance
she was fabulous back In the day where the bars were closer together and more challenging. Nice long lines. Beautiful girl, too.
Очень красивое сочетание силы и грации!
That judge looks like she ready to gouge out her eyes and take them for herself
E
FOR REAL IT WAS SCARING ME
She looks like one of the characters from Loki season 2 lol
fr like eyeless momo
That dismount was wild.
The perfect proportions for this maneuver.
Incredibly elegant with so much skill and creativity❤❤❤❤❤
i still find the uneven bars of yesteryear far more outstanding and amazing than what they seem to be doing today, I do know that some of the routines that olga or nadia did were banned but holy moly these girls are out of this world,
The most creative routine I've ever seen! Also, so strong, so tight, controlled and super clean.
Посмотри программу Ольги корбут.
Those were the best days of gymnastics, that's when I was inspired to become the best I could
Мой любимый снаряд брусья! В каком хорошем темпе гимнастка делает элементы! ❤
I love watching clips of gymnastics from the 70's. So graceful and strong. They seem to glide effortlessly through the air.
If people would only know how strong you have to be to perform something like this!!??
AMEN
men dont come close too LADY'S TALENT & STRENGTH...AMEN
men are stronger than women in any sport imaginable its just biology
@@TEXAS_FREE_STATE best joke I’ve heard all year 😂😂😂😂
@@TEXAS_FREE_STATEfunny
@@TEXAS_FREE_STATELMAO 100 dollars i could beat 20 of you at once
I really miss the artistry that gymnastics used to have.
Настоящий немец! Жёстко, чётко, пунктуально, безэмоционально.
One word describes this routine, flawless!
Enhanced! .... Considering it was Soviet East Germany. and she later had a keen interest in "medicine" likely found during her Olympics time. It's probably not a stretch to assume this is true.
@@dsdgdsfegfeg I don’t know of any medicine that would help you keep your legs straight and together.🙄
@@dsdgdsfegfegHow exactly can medicine help you improve your technique?
Beautiful!
Gymnastics was soooo much better back in the fay. Bet Simpleton Simone couldnt pull this off... Shed definatly get daze and confused and fall off.
I really love the vintage gymnastics. And she really does it well. 🤗 👍
@@ronhendricks2010 You people are hilarious.😁😁😁😁 Simone is Da GOAT. The women back then can't hold a candle to the gymnast today. I bet you're green just thinking of Simon, The Greatest of All Time Biles.
@@ronhendricks2010Except that Simone is the most decorated gymnast of all time. Seethe. 🤣🤣
Better grip strength then i could ever dream of
Her dismount stunt was mesmerizing
Stunning. Everything was original and freakin hard. Well done.
By hard you mean ped.
Gosh, i know nothing about gymnastics, but this just look so perfect, she just look like an elf just jumping on the forest's canopy, just amazing ❤
Она молодец но ей не кюсравница с Корбут советской гимнасткой
that mount was INSANE and so impressive and graceful what the heck
Jeeezzzzzz that was awesome even for the ending. She is world class!
She made that look SO EASY! Absolutely stunning!
The finesse....the execution...that grace....it is astoundingly impeccable❤
❤девчонки на брусьях все молодцы, а Ольга Корбут это история!! Звезда брусьев!
"Звезда брусьев" НИКОГДА на международных соревнованиях не завоёвывала золотую медаль в упражнениях на брусьях.
she, so thin and graceful, demonstrates incredible strength and precision. There is a lot of commitment and effort behind it❤
I mean she makes it look so effortless it’s incredible
that is the nicest dismount I've seen
The level of skill, the years of practice.. impressive
Well that was just incredible, insanely perfect.
Thrilling to watch. Great skill , strength and grace.
The bliss of a quiet venue.
timeless grace, infinite coordination.
Karin Janz , 1972, East Germany.
The routine that put Olga Korbut's iconic bar routine in Silver medal position.
Silver???
@@Santiago_Olmos
Yep!
I know. I remember the ‘72 Olympics (including the terrorist attack on the Israeli Team). But especially Olga’s performance because even at 12 I loved watching Olympic gymnastics the most.
Her performance was such a big deal, if asked from memory if she’d taken the Gold, I would have sworn she had!
It’s sad, but I don’t even remember this girl Janz.
Thank you. I was wondering who that was. Awesome performance.
Gracias por el video.
Jama e visto una ejecución de esa magnitud. Triste pero en esos tiempo eran biem difisir para algunos paises.que se quedaba malcado por la querrá. Y los echos negativo de otras personas..me alegro que la seńora alla destacados en su vida.
I can't get over that incredible dismount. How/where does she get that much power to launch herself like that? Amazing!
I love how clear it is like it was filmed yesterday
That one-handed move is something I've never seen before. Beautiful.
The judges were smiling 😊
They were allowed to SMOKE too! THAT just blows me away lol 😆😅😊
Probably a German judge.
that launch & twist past the first bar & onto the second facing the other way!!!! so freaking cooolllll
I'm completely baffled by the amount of dedication and diligence involved in such a superb performance.
So graceful, yet powerful and difficult ❤
Is it me or the jury is smiling in a terrifying way?
Fr that was the only thing on my mind
I’m scared
I'm glad i wasnt the only one who watched it
They didn’t move either?
Looking like momo
That was the coolest dismount ever!
Wow, this is spectacular, the control and concentration. Really amazing
The gasp at the first handstand 😍
I think it’s truly amazing how the only thing you can hear during her routine is the bars considering comps now days are so loud. But back then when someone was performing it was silent
