Last week I presented a speech to my college class about Tonya Harding. This is such a good video, that really flows nicely. As a fellow person who has done a lot of research about this woman I love how you included things like how she was found on the side of the road with a baseball bat. A lot of people I talked to didn't know that about the story.
She was a terrific skater who had very little financial or emotional support. She fought the snobbery of women's figure skating and was penalized for it. Taking away her skating was an out-of-proportion penalty for her supposed knowledge of the plot to injure Nancy Kerrigan. In my book Harding was still the better skater and a survivor of terrible parental and spousal abuse.
She was absolutely horrid to all the other skaters at her local rink. TOTAL snob, really mean to the younger skaters, just a thoroughly unlikable young woman. I wasn't surprised when she got in trouble. Her mother was a HAG, though.
Not necessarily. Her mom was there to carry on with the abuse. My mom was the same way--if I have to raise my hand, you're getting smacked kind. FU mom
Tonya was at one time, the greatest ice skater in the world, she was amazing, go watch the full routine of her first triple Axel in competition, its amazing she was on fire she didn't miss a beat
Um... Tonya is no victim today. She is famous, she gets paid to just appear in stuff, she is a host of several trutv shows. She had a bad childhood. All of us have. Doesn't give you the right to do what she did.
The 1992 and 1994 winter olympics were the first I remember watching as a child. And while Lillehammer were probably the best winter games ever, I mainly remember this Harding/Kerrigan scandal, that I did not really properly understand at that time. It was the biggest sideshow of the games. Even now, I can only guess to which degree she was or was not involved.
Why Nancy, Why? It was always all about Nancy. I loved it when Oksana won gold in Lillihammer. Nancy showed her full colors at the decorationl She got silver! Then she was paid $2 million for ride a float with Micky Mouse and saild it was corny and griped. These videos are here.Tonya Harding was the better skater.
The victim is if it put it in Tonya's story yes she is after the live she lived. She is a loser if we put it that way. But on the other have we have Nancy that live very good normal childhood. And she prepared so hard to rich the gold medal. So both are victim s.
Wow, you have the perfect voice to create content 👍🏾 , and the way you tell a story draws people in and peaks their intrigue 🙌🏾 In less than twelve minutes you told a story that included her childhood, her introduction to ice skating ⛸️, her record breaking performances , and gave an insight into where is she now 👏🏾 I want to create content on RUclips and have that talent to keep it short but yet sweet 👌🏾 thanks for filling in the gaps for me , and continued success in all your endeavors 🙏🏾 !!!!!!

Thank you so so much Madison! More videos like this one are coming 🤩

There was nothing supposed about it. She admitted to knowing about it. Tonya played a part.
She grew up with abuse and what’s sad is it made it acceptable for her future husband to be abusive most abused people are like that and it’s sad
Child abuse and DV can really wreck a life.
real. It wrecked mine fs
If she had married someone else, her story could have been so different.
Not necessarily. Her mom was there to carry on with the abuse. My mom was the same way--if I have to raise my hand, you're getting smacked kind. FU mom

And they can't take that away from her. Undoubtedly ended sooner than she would have liked. But who knows?
I was young when that happened but I remember it. Both were talented
Believe it or not, you can have more than one victim. There's no winner in that arena. But click bait is cluck bait.

She had a bad childhood.
All of us have.

@@lilythebassetpuppy
Not everyone had a bad childhood. That’s ridiculous. Mine was far, far from perfect, but I don’t even consider it bad.
@@lilythebassetpuppy not everyone is abused by their mum and spouse??? especially not in the priveledged sport of figure skating.

Victim can be have different meanings. So i dont have any problem with tonya. I love tonya she was the first person did the triple.
They picked the most unflattering picture of Tonya for the thumbnail 🤣
nah she's absolutely gross from every angle

She’s beautiful alway yhoght she was the all American gurl
For those wondering where is the answer maybe it's in the video linked to this short? I'm not sure cuz I'm not rlly interested lmao
Tanya chose violence. Bad move. Fuck around and find out as they say...
You are right, it does not mean she was not a victim of violence herself, one does not prevent the other
Whether or not anybody is a victim of anything does not mean you can be violent later.
@@GramGramGenX-ln5sc I never said that, don't put words in my mouth.
