      Maybe if we were in the 70s it would be fair to say that. But gymnasts like Svetlana Khorkina, He Kexin, Aliya Mustafina, Viktoria Komova are much better on uneven bars. But yes, Olga Korbut is up there. But routines like Olga's just don't compare to the ones that are being performed nowadays.

      +Маэстро Воланд no it was the format. back then the scores you got previously on that event were added up, so you were already in a certain place entering the finals. Olga had a disastrous routine in the all around and she couldn't catch up to the more consistent gymnast unfortunately

    I remember watching this live, with my mouth hanging open in awe; she changed the world of athletics, not just gymnastics. She made what she did look easy and fun, like a child who discovers somersaults for the first time. There will never be another like her.

  • @wilmiranda7956

  • @justronokay
    @justronokay 12 лет назад +222

    Probably the best performance I've ever seen on the uneven bars, even by today's standards. That should have merited a 9.90 or better. She single handedly changed the way the world viewed gymnastics.

  • @lexos1993
    @lexos1993 12 лет назад +300

    That is just absurd! The way she bounces back to the high bar after that roll on the low bar is mindblowing.

  • @brendaannedufaur6244
    @brendaannedufaur6244 4 года назад +201

    One of the greatest gymnasts of all time. One of the grestest routines of all time. One of my very favorite bar routines of all time. Olga was so unique. She never settled just to get thru. Korbut was innovative and pioneering. There are so many routines today that are not beautiful and the routines all look alike. Olga Korbut is sheer poetry in motion. This routine is incredibly dangerous and incredibly hard and incredibly spectacular. Wow.

  • @brendaannedufaur6244
    @brendaannedufaur6244 4 года назад +94

    The best uneven parallel bar routine i have ever seen. Breathtaking. She is so calm and soaring like a bird. SO unique. Every uneven parallel bar now looks the same. Korbut was the greatest.

    This definitely deserved gold. As with most sports that are judged, the ones who are ahead of their time usually get shafted. It's only in retrospect that you realize what you had seen and how important it was. This performance changed the entire sport forever.

      @brianmerritt5410 8 лет назад +31

      People like you love to draw the "Olga and Nadia" line, just because it's what everyone else says. But the revolution of gymnastics happened every year, gradually. It was in 1972 and 1976 that they broke the scale (which was only a matter of time for the Russians), so we say those were the golden years, and I agree they were the most memorable, but really, Olga's "groundbreaking" moves had actually been done before.

    • @Oksana7305
      @Oksana7305 7 лет назад +2

      Olga's somersault on beam had been done before by Nancy Theis but no one else ever did her release on high bar before her. Also people don't release Nadia's moves on bars had been done before as well. The only new item is her half twist on dismount

    I was 10 when she debuted at the Olympics. In my small town we did not have any facilities for gymnastics. All the girls in the neighborhood were thrilled by her performance. We all wanted to be her and spent countless hours attempting to be her on our swingsets and grass. I am still thrilled when I watch her.

      She did not got a ten because she did not make a stick landing and instad did a little hop forward. That's how the rules were back then and she knew it. At that time gymnastics was much more about perfection than dificulty.

  • @andamamitza
    @andamamitza 12 лет назад +27

    most beautiful thing ive ever seen.. Prior to 1972, the athletes were generally older and the focus was on elegance rather than acrobatics. In the decade after Korbut's Olympic debut, the emphasis was reversed.

    Olga should have gotten a 10, no Gymnist ever stood on top of a bar and flip backwards and catch it. she is and always will be the no 1 gymnist in the world. I mean Nadia was good, but Olga was a BEAST!!!!

    • @Oksana7305
      @Oksana7305 7 лет назад +8

      I agree Olga should have got a 10 but even if she hadn't made a mess of the all round, the point is she wasn't known. Nadia is right when she says that in competition judges have to know you. And at that time judges were not really used to dangerous elements and probably didn't know how to score her.

      When Nadia got her tens it was because her movements were utterly perfection.

    • @someonesomewhere6123
      @someonesomewhere6123 4 года назад +1

      No, because because Nadia's movements were perfect. Olga's were only almost perfect. Did you notice that for example Olga wasn't able to make a clean stick landing at the end?
      In the 70s the rules were different than today. Dificulty did not count as much as it does no. Nobody demanded of Olga to do this backflip she did on top of the higher bar. The Russians just wanted to impress the world.

  • @brendaannedufaur6244
    @brendaannedufaur6244 4 года назад +12

    Karin Janz got the gold. And Olga Korbut got the silver. Sheer insanity. Olga was superior. You can't trust judges. Bad judging should be held to account in real time. Sometimes judges see something great and mark it down like it's a punishment. Janz' routine was inferior to Korbut's. Janz didnt even make her vertical handstands and was strained throughout. Olga Korbut's performance was sheer perfection and deserved a 10. And what do the judges do but give her a silver medal instead of a gold. If i were the coach i would have appealed the score. There was positively no mistakes in Korbut's routine for any points to be taken off, not to mention the routine was exciting and dynamic in the extreme.

    I love the Olympics, but never paid much attention to anything earlier than the 84 games. I stumbled upon one of Olga's youtube videos recently,& watched it out of curiosity. And I've gotta say "Wow." Her combination of technique, personality, smiles & tears really lit up those Munich Games in a manner that I don't think anyone has ever done since.
    I would've loved to have seen this back when it first aired in 72.
    Simply amazing.

    if you guys are wondering on why she placed second place instead, i think its because on her first attempt she made a mistake (her feets touch the floor twice) and got deductions, yet she did great on her second attempt, she even cried after doing her mistake at the end of her routine. and i think the video of her making the mistake got cut out. (this was based on my theory, correct me if im wrong!)

      @Oksana7305 7 лет назад +52

      Hi Natalie, good question, I had this argument with someone on another forum who believes that the Korbut somersault on the high bar is banned because standing on the top bar interrupts the rhythm. That 's a minor factor obviously but if you google it risk is the main reason. It looks far more dangerous than Nadia's or anything else at the time as it looks so easy to get tangled up in.

    there is risk in everything, but thats not the point. the point is that she's okay with that high risk in those times. compared to what we watch today, thats much much higher level and she did it so perfectly, still. to her these olympic games must look like kids making funny dances

    That looks much harder than the stuff they do today. I mean, sure, Giants are difficult and they look showy, but this sort of routine takes a lot more precision and strength.

    That move where she "wraps herself round the lower bar" (I like your phrasing) is physically impossible on the bars used now because they are too far apart

    The special effects are great on this, really realistic!
    For the internet: I know this is real.

    She does 3 glide kips in the routine. They're hyper, fully extended. An extension you don't see in today's gymnast.
