@prettylittleliars65 she fractured her back and pulled a bunch of muscles, ended up in a brace for awhile but went back to training as soon as she could
@aj5650 It ended up being a stress fracture of L-4 and L-5. The doctor's guessed it was already there and that the fall made it worse. She herself remembers her back being sore when she trained at Nunno's Dynamo gym the year previous.
aww!! I think she said, "Please Lord" That's so sad I've fallen off the bars but mothing like that!!! She is so talented and I should take notes from what she says cause she is awesome!!
No don't worry honestly, I just get alot of shit about doing gymnastics as a male. People just don't truly understand the dangers of 1 miscalculation. I remember at that time my parents were going out of buisness, so I tried to keep myself from going to the hospital. I was basically yelling "I'm FINE!". Even though all I could move was my head and barely.
that happened to me... its horrible... my legs felt like they had burning ants on them and i couldnt get up... i thought i was fine but i was gasping for air cause i was having a realy hard tim ebreathing... then my coach said to me .... your gana be ok... .at that point i knew i was fucked.... then they brought the stretcher and i didnt want my parents to spend any money because of the economy so i ttried to get up but couldnt and so i kept on telling myself and everyone around me that i was ok
This was in '94 so she'd have been about 16 at the time. I don't recall the details, other than it being a bad elbow injury. Says something, by the way, that according to her mom, Kerri was one to push herself harder than anyone else would--in some other gymnasts, it's easy to guess that this mentality would lead to eating disorders and other unhealthy behaviour for the sake of following their dreams of success.
No it wasn't an elbow injury. She hurt her back, and in fact could've been paralyzed. But luckily she had a full recovery. She fractured one of her vertebrae.
Actually, this was an elbow injury, not a spinal one--but it was bad enough that she missed the rest of 1994 and much of 1995 rehabing. She came back, as we know, strong enough to win American Cup and qualifiy for the Olympic team in '96--where yet another injury gave one of the most remembered images of the Games.
I fell backwards like that off the bar but luckily I landed flat on the springboard, but I still hurt my back so she must have been in so much pain, poor girl.
Sacramone couldnt perform well during the competition and has the balls to lie! The US team was the one and only team that was making the false accusation against the Chinese, no any other teams did. If she lose, lose with dignity and people will respect that way. Focus on the training instead of lying like this Olympic loser. Team USA should kick this lazy retarded bitch out because she is not just the biggest disgrace for the team but to all the athletes around the world as well!!!
This video is about Kerri Strug, not Alicia Sacramone. But since you left a silly, uneducated comment anyway, I'll respond. The accusations that were made against the Chinese gymnasts were not false, they were true. It was proven on a few of the girls' birth certificates that they were not of age to compete. And the fact that you can call any Olympic athlete a disgrace to athletes around the world shows something about your personality that I would be ashamed of if I were you.
It's funny to see comments from a land of big hairy morons with low intelligence, aka United shit of america. You say you hate the communism but you can't wait to get your filthy hands on chinese coaches. You give them citizenships, pay millions of dollars to coach your WAG team. You dumbsters worship that old romanian worm who constantly bitching about judging, keep bring up the age issue, calling the chinese gymnast half people. Well bela, your nation never can beat us. Come crawl at out feet!
#1. the only chinese coach coaching americans in the olympics was shawn johnsons coach who chose to leave an oppresive country
#2. and yes we bring up the age issue because it is CHEATING! people dont realize that girls who are 14 can do more than girls who are 16 because they are lighter and more agile.
#3. america has one of the best schooling systems in the world and you are calling us stupid...
the only reason china won the 08 olympics was because of cheating and biased judging!
Okay, just so you guys know, the age thing was never proven. I agree that IF China was using underage athletes, they cheated. It's a stupid rule, but rules are rules. However, allimoballi, are you forgetting the disastrous mistakes the US made in that competition? It's my belief that if the allegations had been proven and China had been forced to use different athletes, they would have won anyway. Anyway, it's over. There's nothing we can do about it now, so just let it go.
i agree that we made bad mistakes...but can we both agree that XXCCC85XX is being completely out of line and deserves to have someone rebut what he said because it was a little extreme
well i agree on the first one. but you really cant call it cheating. they cant help what their body size to that extent, but yes, they should follow the rules when theyre given. its just a weird rule.
actually you can call it cheating. the rules specifically state that to participate in the olympics you must 16 within that olympic year. they were using younger athletes to get ahead. i know that a lot of people think "wow they are competing with girls that are like 4 years older than them" but it actually puts them at the advantage because they are lighter, more agile and (slightly) less likely to have standing injuries.
and look it up...the usa has one of the best schooling systems in the world. i am not saying that ALL usa schools are stellar but atleast every child in american has the right to go to public school
Having the right to go to public school doesn't make the school systems great. On the contrary, we have some of the worst school systems compared to some European and Asian countries. Only a small percentage of especially public schools in this nation are stellar.
Anyways, if China used underage athletes they cheated according to the rules, but we haven't proved that so as of now they didn't cheat.
ok you try living in a third world country (and lets face it, there are too many of those in this world) and try to get as far as you can with the opportunities that are offered to you in america.
Living in a third world country and having worse opportunities than the ones in America has nothing to do with the fact that many European and Asian nations have better school systems than the United States...so I don't get what you're trying to say I guess.
good point. i dont live in a great school district, so i guess im a bit biased on that point.
and about the other point, i thought you meant they were cheating with their methods of training somehow, but yes, they cheated in the olympics if they were underage.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
lets not forget the controversy(sp?) with nastia liukin on the uneven bars. honestly, i think thats a poor tie breaker. EVERYONE thought nastia deserved the gold for the bars
haha ok so not everyone; but id say theres a pretty large amount of people who thought so. one of the reporters said something about how they should both get golds. i disagreed but i DO think they should have done a second routine because the tie-breaking meathod they used was unfair and complete bogus to me
I don't think they should have done a second routine, because that's extremely unfair and would be very harsh on their bodies, but I don't like the tie-breaker either. They got the same score, which, no matter justified or not, should have rewarded them the same color of medal.
even though its harsh on their bodies, in the end, ONE person will win because they are just "better"
but i guess youre right. the games ARE a one-time thing so their first routine should be the only one that counts. hey, at least nastia got the attentoin and the controversy(sp?)
oh please. did you SEE the comeback she made on that vault? ...WITH an injured ankle? if it wasnt for her, the US probably wouldnt even had won the team gold
i agree with gottadancevideos. and that's why she made it to the olympics, because she sucks, and became a hero too, because she sucks! get a new insult book looser!!! you don't know how much work they have to put on this.... do you see us americans mention names of your chinese representatives in this video! so shut the heck up!
let's see you do it! bet you land flat on your ugly @ss face!! Unless of course you cheat. cause you are chinese. that is what you are an expert that. that and putting poison in everything. yeah. just go back to what you are good at. loser.
sorry..it's me again..but people don't understand the pain of that...you basically have difficulty breathing for like 5 or 10 mintues..and you can't walk.....it's horrible..
whoa..I USED TO DO TAE KWON DO..and I fractured my back...SO PAINFUL..I COULDN'T WALK FOR LIKE TWO WEEKS..I was drugged up on pain killers for like two weeks...and this LOOKS WAY MORE PAINFUL THEN WHAT I ENDURED...not to be dramatic...but she looks like she could have died or paralyzed herself with this move...I creech everytime I see it..
I'm really glad that she accomplished what she did: the highest honor, WIN GOLD IN THE OLYMPICS.People doesn't not recognize suffering, sacrifices and painful injuries...only accolades. Well done Kerri!
it sucks how that injury led to her death after she went to the hospital and the doctors told her that she was paralized and that they have to do surgery which went bad and led to her horrible and slow death it was very sad.

OUCH!!! I landed like that snow skiing and ruptured a disk in my neck (it took 4 years before the dr figured out what I did cause I got up and kept skiing) Watching this makes me hurt all over again.
Absolutely scary. I recall watching the broadcast and this being the second time it's just as painfull to watch. Her guardian Angel was definitely watching out for her!
she didn't break her ankle she strained it the first vault then tore ligaments on the second. If she had broken it she wouldn't have been able to walk, let alone vault, LMAO!

This forgotten footage shows her determination even more than anything we remember from the Olympic games.
What a painful injury, and what a triumphant recovery she made!

I can assure you that I am not dumb, russian or negro; and that you are just an imbecile low life douce bag. I am embarrassed that you are an American. You and your idiot comments should get out of my country immediately.

Come on!, you can do better than that. Think a little harder; if you can. But don't hurt those brain cells of yours, if there are any. Good thing you're not an American. Your ignorance and weakness is understood. =)

Let me guess, someone who writes ok English is a nerd. =) You're mentally deficient. Like I said before; an imbecile low life. Go collect your food stamps and stop making paltry remarks. Who needs to go to school now? lol.

killgore09 3 years ago
You're not only dumb but funny. But I'll tell you what, I'll look for those cards that you mention so much, if you promise to educate yourself, so you can become an asset to society. Go to school, don't fight it by trying to be hard or cool. You're an idiot & you know that. =)
