[vettefan87]

What's "crazy" about this? Not perfect by any means, but not a bad routine.

[punkiebrewster93]

@wildstring211 she used to..she and my cousin went to the same school for gymnastics...she does track and field now.

[Aiishiteru75]

It's dangerous

[shayab12]

i use to but not anymore..

[alicia31122]

hahahahahahahahahahaha... better then i could do in my life :)

[cherylannemason]

Good for her, she may not be technically the cleanest but she's definitely got some unique skills.

[huntasoup]

Amazing!!! How does she do that??!!!

[punkiebrewster93]

@huntasoup when she did gymnastics she went like 6hrs or more a day. 7 days a week. she was stuck at level 10 for about 2/3 yrs because she was only about 9 and couldnt go on because of age.

[ani744]

omg 1:28-1:33

[cheerdiver]

I have been trying to find this vid for a LOOONG time.  Even used the first three words verbatim and still couldn't find it.

That is the COOOLEST element!!

[Tahjnah]

You go girl, yardie for life. We've got the skills and talent.

[flippingfirmys]

omg tht was amazing!...slopy but amazing! she had some extremly unique skills in there and tht was the coolest routine ive ever seen! she was sooooo good! wat lvl was she?!

[mell0marr]

she had a couple of unique moves in this routine!

[XomgITSlnsyX]

omg i thought she fell wen she did tht sradle the beam thing it scared mee haha

[erikaashley13]

wow awesome job

[nicolefilpsalot]

this is how gymnastics should be done its so unique

[gymstarnastics101]

Oh i know! The way gymnastics is now, everyone does compolsery and it becomes boring. She did an amazing job!

[mercedeslove]

that was freaking awesome

btw I am here because I wanted to check out the crazy chick.

black, white, yellow, green...if they're crazy I am there

[produnov]

The Xiaojiao is very cool tho I never seen anyone do that

[jamesbug2002]

I can even barely reach my back to scratch it! whoa! what a skill!

[lairsantos]

I wanna know her name!

[Sondrah]

OMG! That was unreal!

[Anax68]

Real cool...should be called " The JAMACIAN" (just someone has to guess about the pronunciation!!! lol ) It's funny, because if you read it fast you don't notice that it's misspelled!!! Anyway, once again...This trick really rocks!!!

[hinginator]

I like her full twisting back handspring. Connect that to a couple of layouts and this beam routine could definitely go places. Plus that "reverse handstand" is just amazing. Ive never seen that before. We Jamaicans got skills!!!!

[Lyssenk0]

Yea. What amazing shoulder flexibility...and strength. Never seen that before.

[apluskel]

i've never seen that skill done before....what's the name, its not named after her is it?

[gymnastixbabee32]

shes got some crazy moves!!!!!!!

[violaroadkill]

When is this from? do you know her name?

[punkiebrewster93]

@violaroadkill her name is shanay gentles...she used to go to the same gymnastics school as my cousin...she doesnt do gymnastics anymore though

[ralucagymnast]

@punkiebrewster93 Did she retire due to injuries?shoulder injuries? thats a great skill; its a shame she couldnt have it named after her:( how old is she now then? hows she getting on in track and field? shes got some good athletic role models in Jamaica hasnt she lol??I wish her well anyway:)

[punkiebrewster93]

@ralucagymnast she's probably like 16/17 now and she didnt have injuries, she just got bored of it because she'd been doing it for so long.

[jamdown11]

Crazy Jamaican.. lol thats cool cuz im jamaican and everything but you didnt even spell JAMAICAN properly, its all good though, she did awesome except for that fall, but everybody falls sometimes.

[HotCandi]

? why she crazy

[iowas22]

amazing!!

[gymnastforever17]

her skills are very good! but she must of got a lot of deductions for all those wobbles and that fall

[mistybabe5489]

wow that was cool, like a reverse press.

[braveheartlioncarebe]

she's awesome but needs dance training, she should go to another gym like in America

[IAmInLoveWithMyHorse]

OMG THAT WAS SO COOL!!!!!!!!

[kimberlinaaa]

that must be sooo freakin hard

[DancingBabyxxox8]

that thing she did at like 1;30  was so cool good job

[marieked]

that is cool! Who is she?

[tbc2006]

shannay gentles

[beproxsoxbro]

There would never be any controversy if it were a "Crazy White Person" title. Crazy is just a adjective that means amazing or incredible. And the fact that it says she's Jamaican doesn't mean he's a racist. It's just a fact; she IS jamaican. If you think that's racist, than you need a SERIOUS reality check.

[daboss1221]

the name is racist. i am sure you dont mean it to be but it is and should be changed

[reactor4music]

u r brain is stupid.. im sure u dont like it but it is and should be changed..

[daboss1221]

i dont understand why you are that attached to a the name of a video... i mean really what are you trying to say. so because i take offence to the name of something i am stupid. if i am missing something tell me. not everyone has to agree i just find that if something has the potential to hurt then change it.

[Luminarfeliz87]

Wow, you're really good girl, keep it up!!!!!!

[all4uanew]

rename this

[JustBeingStephers]

@all4uanew i dont get it...

[MiszTeeHoney]

wow she's really good.

[gymnastgirl1232]

thats so cool

[tedsler]

ouch! :/

[crazygirl132]

when you meen crazy, do you mean it in a good way or bad way because i'm jamaican and if it's in a bad way i take offence to it.

[MVGymnist]

crazy in a good way

[xplosive08]

omg...that 1:30...crazy

[BRATZconnection]

She must spend hours in the gym to be that strong i hope to be like her =]

[audie83]

That press is incredible-please tell me she will or has gotten to Worlds or the Olympics so it can't be stolen from her-and named for someone else!!! :)

[QueenieQue]

I had a friend who had double-jointed shoulders like that...but it still amazes me...

[Jmanda86]

OMG her shoulders should not do that.

[gymkym]

She is crazy good! That was the coolest press I have ever seen on beam!

[kealabeam]

Awesome routine, she regrouped really well to do such a kick ass press after falling...amazing.

[SweetAsCookiePie]

the move that starts at like part 1:27 is just creepy!!!

[gymnastic1995]

OMG!

[gymnast216]

ddddaaaaaaannnnnggggggg!!!!!!!­!!! if her shoulders were any more flexible they would pop out of socket!!!!!!!! lol

[peanut303]

wow! she is crazy! she's awesome!

[peanut303]

whats so crazy about her? she is a great gymnast!

[GymnasticsAddict]

Does anyone know what her name is? that was insane!

[tbc2006]

shanay gentles

[GymnasticsAddict]

Thanks a bunch!!

[gymnastic1]

i can just imagine like she's on youtube one day and watches this video of her titled "crazy jamaican girl"...haha...anyways at first i thought her tricks were really good but her form and technique wasn't great...but after that pressy thingy i didn't really care! that was cool!

[cutegymnast1993]

yes...

[larissitagym]

wow gorgeous

[ldjx3]

girl yall is crazy

how you move yo body like a rubba band.

thats crazy bro.

[acrofreak]

that was amazing

[CoCoPrincess1217]

There is made hataz.... I luv it

[ralucagymnast]

WOW-A Manna lift!!!!!Beautiful, and very very difficult and unique! Good job! The detractors on here make me laugh!!!Like they could to that as well-maybe in about a million years of training!

[krumpkid321]

im better lol

[soonergymnast1967]

that's different which is good to see

[joearnshaw]

Her manna lift was brilliant nice to see some original moves although routine was very scruffy and needs a lot of form and leg work.

[cutegymnast1993]

i say shes very good. better than me. way better. and i only go to a rec gym which sux. i hope i could be as good as her. but who knos... like i said she has a great style in her routine.

[cutegymnast1993]

yet you have no proof of u being a "level 10" gymnast. a true gymnast wouldnt go around saying that.

[gymgyul]

i know shannay gentles she came to trinidad to compete she's good

i'm a trinidadian she's a lvl. 10 but she's retired now even though she young she 's about 13

[ralucagymnast]

I know this is a year old but how come she retired so young?? I can only guess she got injured?

[otwgymnastt01]

thats rude, even i fyou are better than her you shouldnt say that she sucks. i didnt see one suckish thing in this routine. sure she fell off, but you cant say that yu have never fallen off beam before.

[whipback]

It was really sloppy, she didn't connect well, she didn't have control of her balance, she didn't keep her form togother, and she only showed flexibilty in her shoulders not in her legs(on her leaps and when she kicked her leg in the air).

[otwgymnastt01]

the video wont load for me right now, so i cant watch it again to see the thing syou are talking about. i'm sure she does does mistakes and you went through them all well, stating her problems. what you are saying is constructive criticism. you simply said what she did badly, you didnt go out saying that she sucks and your better than her. very different.

[USAgymnast52]

she is amazing. who do u think u are. i bet u cant do anything that she can do. u must be crazy to say a comment like that. what is wrong with u

[turnerbug]

I doubt the rudeness is needed - she isn't perfect, but she does some very unique skills. Its amazing that you can sit here and criticize someone else - but yet, you yourself have no videos proving your "im a level 10" statement.

[alassiel123]

oooh, well every1 has 2 start somewere...

[marierox11]

AW SHAME SHE FELL OFF

[Georgepk4life]

its a manna, then she put her legs up to handstand...soo good

[xsupergurly01x]

she needs to clean up a little shes sloppy!!! thats a crazy press handstand she has must have awesome shoulder flexabity to do that!!

[sadomaster]

white soles ))

[produnov]

And she does the same jump Sun XiaoJiao used to do...

[modelsp]

I AM COMPLETELY FLABBERGASTED

HOLY CRAP!

That is humanly IMPOSSIBLE!!!

[Gymlover]

that press handstand is CRAZY UNIQUE!!

I would never let her do the layout stepout but that press is incredible! such flexible shoulders I've only seen in RG not AG

[gymerin]

that is totally insane!!!! whats also insane is that her hands are in a reverse grip!

[AntoineWalkerFan]

I think she meant the girl was doing crazy skills. Not that teh girl was crazy.

I was very impressed. Usually Countries with very little in training money don't have gymnasts with good skills and I was impressed.

I just remember the 2003 worlds sitting through Countries with gymnasts that couldn't do cart wheels on the beam. This girl did a great job.

[produnov]

I think it was the Sri Lankan team in 2003 worlds...

But this girl trains in Jamaica or USA?

Really cool!

[levlava]

Holy shit.

[mrparke007]

The GROSS thing is that you can see her right shoulder *pop* as it dislocates to make the handstand. SICK SICK SICK!!!

[GirlFighter2010]

now ur making it sound like im rasit!! Trust me im half jamacian myself so shut up and whats wrong with not matture

[GirlFighter2010]

ur weird who cares if she is jamacian u make it sound like all jamacian's fall off the balance beam ur a retard

[jojo1802]

I don't think they meant that at all, and to call someone a retard really just shows your immaturity.. Lets just enjoy the video for what it is and quit trying to read between the lines!

[Amarventris]

why the hell is she moving so fast?? Losing points everywhere. If the had that toe point and that flexibility, why is it missing from almost every other move?

[Gewls52793]

yea, pretty damn crazy too me

[XMachineHeadzX]

WOAH! Craziness!

[burnt2beauty]

that was tight!!! I've seen people balance but not like that!! *ignores the fact that the girl almost fell near the beginning and the fact that she fell later on...*

[elong10]

What part of this is crazy? Maybe the carzy difficulty. That handstand is the bomb...never seen anyone do that before.

[crazygirl132]

im Jamacian too and y is the part of the title crazy! Im in gymnastics also and i cant do that! Its awsome

[UGotTubeOnUrFace]

impressive not crazy

[hinginator]

I agree tampa.Im Jamaican and I dont know what to think about the title

[tampassexiest]

why is the title crazy jamacian what is she doing that makes here crazy

[jasadin]

never ever seen that skill!

[lashenova]

that was pretty cool
