Molodec Olga Corbat we always love your performance and we never forget your skills of art on the floor and many other performances.Unfirgetable and memorable performances by Olga Corbat!!!!!!!
Olga, and Nadia put gymnastic on the map forever. And, from the US Kathy Rigby was the first American gymnast to won a medal in the Olympics, she got silver.
Fully Agree!!! 🌹🤍🌹 I considered her elements to be far more daring, dazzling & barrier breaking!!! Her beam in Munich was a masterpiece. Her poise & courageous vulnerability touched hearts world wide. Nadia was technical & methodical, like a trained robot. There is something unique about Olga which had me forget Nadia even existed since discovering Olga. My life and outlook have been forever inspired by her passion & perseverance!!! 🤸🏼♀️💝🫶🏻
Former soviet commentator, Olga and Nadia all ended up living in the US. I just remember the girls as a kid watching them on the TV representing their countries. I don't blame them for leaving.
The soviets system was extremely brutal to their gymnasts. Remember Elena Mukhina? Poor Olga for the abuse she suffered but so glad she survived! She was brilliant
As a child I watched Olga in the Olympics. I was absolutely amazed by her performances. Honestly, I was impressed by all of the Eastern European gymnasts. After watching this documentary, I am glad she survived such brutal treatment. However, hearing the opening commentator define the 14 year old athlete as being “seductive” in her routine is extremely difficult for me to hear. The man sounds like a pervert, in my honest opinion. This woman, especially as a girl, a child, had to endure the ill treatment and exploitation from MANY men. So hearing any American man defining the child as seductive and delivering a seductively beautiful gymnastics performance is ABSOLUTELY disgusting!!!
My native state’s, New Jersey, parents were mad and upset with a SOVIET TRAINED GOLD MEDAL GYMNASTS as a coach??? What did they THINK she would do??? Take your kid out of the school rather than retaliate against her training style or strive to work with her so she can understand a different way of conducting training. Please!
@JustAThought155 she was being easier on the kids than her coach was but it was still too rough. She went to Atlanta and got the danger complaints. So she began a self-examinatiin and came to realize many things in her former training was very wrong and that's when she agreed to this special. She is not a little north of me in Scottsdale, a great coach, her kids love her. A great story of personal growth.
19:25 "I don't have any proof, nobody saw us". How interesting! I clearly heard her saying in another interview that "it became known as he (the coach) was tracked by the guards (?) while visiting my room!" Not the first time she can't get her stories straight, confused between different versions.
Yes, I love Olga Korbut, but I'm not sure I believe her story about the coach. I remember in the early 2000's or late 90's, she had no money and was caught shop lifting. She released her book around the same time. I believe she was starved etc but not about sex with her coach.
Too many others exposed him for being a sexual predator. I read that a girl even tried to kill herself due to this coach's abuse. He drove her to total distress & mental anguish. Other students complained and came forward, had said he was a sick deviant, preying on them. Their encounters are out there publicly. I believe them because I got liar vibes when he denied Olga's allegations, he projected it back on her, calling HER the liar. I could tell from the look on her face that something was going on, something to hide/deny. He clearly prepared her over time and planned it, rewarding himself with her child like body just before the Olympics as his "gift" for what he thought he did in getting her there. Giving himself full credit probably. I can tell from an old biography made by foreign tv that he was infatuated by her in an inappropriate way, a wrong way, the way he looked at her and her body even in certain scenes where she practiced performing dance moves & even this where he's looking at her as they practice as a team for the Olympics. You can tell these things, the looks of someone not right in the head. Disturbed, a deranged pervert.
It was a well-known fact within the 'Soviet Bloc' some of them were made pregnant to enhance the performance right before key events. Nowadays (everywhere) there are more athletes with the exact same DNA, probably she was also multiplied within a certain breeding project. She was very smart to retire in 1977.
What a scumbag. I believe Olga; he makes an excuse that hitting her “once” was ok?? He didn’t even appear to know that wasn’t ok. Good for you Olga for speaking out. Be well!
This coach is freaky scary, that wig was too much, he’s certainly fooling the masses. It’s funny as hell realizing it’s the same piece of roadkill. In every picture/video.

OLGA is the " ELVIS " of the sport !! SHE ..( Like "E ") changed it ALL !!
She did not even win the individual all around.And she had two chances,and blew them both.
@@depaola63 Perfeficultad OLGADIA Siempre estarán compartiendo el Primer Trono En GIMNASIA👏👏NadiOlg‼️
ARE YOU PEOPLE READING WHAT OLGA KORBUT SAID? I can’t believe us. Olga please know that you have a supporter in me . Bless you Darling
THAT ROUTINE ON BARS WAS THE FIRST PERFECT 10 ! OLGA THEY CHEATED !
Olga is the original changing the Olympics but nadia got all the credit
Yes. That is true.
Nadia took it to another level.
I agree.

@@lilmissperfect8427lol
Thank you so much ! I´m from Brasil and I love gymnasts, for me it´s like perfection on erth. ...like a angels!!!
she's beautiful and bad ass in her older years !!
Olga Korbut: the godmother of modern gymnastics! GOAT!!
I could watch it forever
Full of grace... charming..
she was gymnastcs first t.v. star
Olga is too good I always felt her sadness inside
Her her interview and that her coach was taking unrighteous liberties with her.
She reminds me.of my.mom..who was also a gymnast...they are both beautiful.souls.
Of all gymnast in time, i have seen some few that is just as good technically but never someone that is so graceful at the same time :)
She too? oh no why!! :'( but I'm glad that she always remained strong.
IN HER TIME SHE WAS THE BEST IN THE WORLD AND I THINK SHE HAD THE FIRST PERFECT 10 WITH THE BACK HANDSPRING ON THE BARS !
Nadia got the first ten.
With the possible exception of Turishova
First Olga, then Nadia, i love Olga, forever
And then Mukhina but, the Soviets ruined her. Poor girl 😥
I STILL CAN NOT BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T GET A 10 FOR THAT PERFECT BAR ROUTINE ! you got ripped off on that one olga .
Former soviet commentator, Olga and Nadia all ended up living in the US. I just remember the girls as a kid watching them on the TV representing their countries. I don't blame them for leaving.
Olga Korbut the best ❤😊
Absolutely the original goat
Olga broke the rules - Nadia took them out to the 9th - amazing!
she deserved the ten here.
The greatest Olga.. love her 😘
The soviets system was extremely brutal to their gymnasts. Remember Elena Mukhina? Poor Olga for the abuse she suffered but so glad she survived! She was brilliant
This was originally a BBC Documentary.
Kevin Jewell Yes, ESPN/ABC often gets BBC documentaries, American announcers read the same script :)
OLGA HAD THE GOLD THAT DAY !
I remember Olga so much ! She was amazing then I remember Kathy Rigby too ! Mark Spitz was the American hero , he won 7 gold medals !
Rigby was no where near Olga's level.
Yep the memories of the first Olympics I remember
@@usfanlovesjiwoo1978true but she was our best and cute like Olga
Thank you for this vid ChocDave and for the CDs and the vids you used to upload in Yahoo Groups
Her Coach looks shady 4 sure !! ....*..I LOVED OLGA and believed they used her !!
OLGA is what ALI was to Boxing !! * I LOVE THEM BOTH !!
Ali was a piece of trash talking,cheating racist filth.
Should of got a perfect ten she was brilliant
la niña de la bella sonrisa

All those girls are just highly trained normal girls...except for Tourischeva, who is an angel in and out of the gym.
love her. Nadia first, then Olga

@@vc23 Another Gymnast told the police that he molested her as well. I believe Olga.
There are six different allegations on Knych. I believe Olga and the other gymnasts as well as the ones who didnt come out.
Too many others exposed him for being a sexual predator. I read that a girl even tried to kill herself due to this coach's abuse. He drove her to total distress & mental anguish.

You're so brainwashed.
You make zero logic!!! Pregnancy doesn't enhance performance. Take a hike with your nonsense!!!
You're an idiot. Being pregnant would not enhance her performance.
What a scumbag. I believe Olga; he makes an excuse that hitting her “once” was ok?? He didn’t even appear to know that wasn’t ok. Good for you Olga for speaking out. Be well!
39:35 the wolf turn behind Olga 😁
What?!
By Ludmilla Tourischeva
Fun fact: I took my first step on the day brejnev died 😀
This coach is freaky scary, that wig was too much, he’s certainly fooling the masses. It’s funny as hell realizing it’s the same piece of roadkill. In every picture/video.
