The platforms aren't wide enough-they should have known to have them a bit wider for the team medallists-and it's very rude that they cut off the American's anthems. Very bad manners.
They should see how the 4th place team felt-with no medal at all. I just hate poor sportsmanship (as shown by the Russians in 1996 and 2000). I'm not American but at least have the grace to be a good loser.
Check out how small the chinese girls and 3 of the romanians compared with "giants" like izbasa and liukin.Cutting the national anthem off in two is just unacceptable.Also notice that both china and romania were not at all pleased with their silver and bronze medals(methinks)
the german presenter makes the announcments sound so weird he made usa sound like ew ess arrrrrrrrrr lol

@sqlcomp This was the flower ceremony, I think they played the whole anthem when they got their medals at the medal ceremony.

@audie83 Have you seen the 2011 championships? Hint: You'll find the situation familiar.
