Svetlana Khorkina - 2000 Olympics EF - Floor Exercise

[pelicanus11]

why are Americans so obsessed with physical beauty!!!! its like they have nothing else to dwell on .no wonder they have eating disorders, plastic surgery,botox fixations. You just have to look at their state of their lives to know that they are self distructive

[Paglia444]

@pelicanus11 Americans "obsessed" with beauty? Khorkina is the one who did photo spreads in fashion magazines. If you're going to do that, you are inviting commentary on your appearance.

[mmoran3]

@pelicanus11 not all Americans!!! some Americans agree with you!!!

[zeldafreak701]

Only missed the gold by .038. That's pretty amazing. Not to mention Khorki gave Zamo another chance for gold in vault finals just a couple days before.

[runnerboy081]

the love the very last line

[lkofron]

She can present a different line to anyone in the competion? Yes,it's called elegance!

[msms68]

i dont like this routine

[mrsantoroalexandre]

I can't believe she got a silver medal with this routine. She scored almost the same as Zamolodchikova, which is ridiculous! Even a bronze medal would have been too much for her.

[Querzeo]

Why does Khorkina have only 3 tumbling series, when everybody else have 4!?

Why to be only Very Good, when you can be Wonderful...?

[KVHolland3]

This music fits Khorkina perfectly, especially at this Olympics. Kinda creepy but confident.

[keli59]

she is GREAT!!!

on the uneven bars, not here!!

[bbhouk1]

her hair looks gorgeous here! especially compared to how she had it fixed the rest of the Olympics, lol

[keto6789]

HOT girl!

[akawhippy]

@keto6789 What the fuck are u talking about? She has no boobs! And I can't believe Playboy actually offered her money to pose nude! Are u fuckin blind or what?! Maybe you should see her in the Athens 2004 Olympics where she looked emaciated. I mean here she looks thin but healthy but in 2004 she totally wasted her body away. So if guys make fun of flatchested girls then how come you or everybody doesn;t make fun of her? It sucks!

[keto6789]

@akawhippy

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I happen to find her very sexy. Now, go back to fantasizing about fat lard asses at Walmart.

[akawhippy]

@keto6789 Alright then. I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But just to let you know, I'm a girl and I'm as thin as her and I still get criticism and even jokes for being flatchested and slim like her. Even my parents tell me that I would never have a serious boyfriend because I'm like her. But guess what, she(Khorkina) got pregnant right after the Athens 2004 Games: she gave birth to a baby boy in July 2005. I heard she even got married to a guy who's way older than her. Not fair.

[keto6789]

@akawhippy

Sorry, I didn't know you were a female. Being "flat chested" doesn't mean you're not beautiful and many men don't care about breasts, like me. I could care less what size a girls breasts are. You'll never have a serious bf because of your breast size??! That's not true. Also, beauty is within, not just outside.

[akawhippy]

@keto6789 I guess you're right. Since America is full of obese people, then maybe the get surprised whenever they see a slim or athletic, fit person in between all these lardos. So I guess here in America they're not used to see a slim person like her. No offense though. If she is as thin as me then she could be my rival.LOL!

[keto6789]

@akawhippy

Life is short, just be happy with yourself. It's not all about looks anyway.

[fantastischfish]

@akawhippy Training at the level she will have been for so many years will have hindered her development. Also, bear in mind that she is still fairly young here, many women do not develop their full figure until much later; coupled with her training, no wonder her figure didn't develop. If you look at recent pictures of her, she remains slim, but has developed a more natural figure.

[akawhippy]

@fantastischfish Yeah, I know. But why I don't get is why how come Playboy and Maxim offered her to pose nude when she didn't have any boobs or a butt. she was always flat and thin like me. You see, gymnastics is reputed for wrecking your body and thus delaying your development. That's why she didn't have a body during the course of her career. Don't you need big boobs to appear in men's mags? So maybe the myth is true. Guys DO like slender girls because of her.

[metsdudenj]

this shit won a medal?

[aryssia95]

queta canzone la devo fare in gara *o*

[galgoshen1965]

this was my old floor music!!

[JohnPhilipSousa519]

Hate this routine...this is not nearly as difficult as the others...plus her second and third landings sucked.

If Jamie Dantzscher or Kristen Maloney were in the final, they might have medalled. This was way overscored.

[gymnasticsloverxoxo]

How did she get away with a silver medal with only three tumbling passes and a rough landing on two of them? What was her score?

[TwisterFlipp95]

@gymnasticsloverxoxo

9.812; even with 3 passes its still possible to have a 10 SV, and her 1st and 3rd landing are both fine so I don't know what you're talking about.

[gymnasticsloverxoxo]

@TwisterFlipp95 Did you not notice she practically flew out of bounds on her last pass?

[TwisterFlipp95]

@gymnasticsloverxoxo

She wasn't out of bounds and she purposely jumped out of it; it's a jump of artistry which is allowed.

[gymnasticsloverxoxo]

@TwisterFlipp95 I apologize I didn't realize that was a jump, it sure looked like she could not control the landing though...

[TwisterFlipp95]

@gymnasticsloverxoxo

That's probably why she does the jump anyway haha [:

[ashleezac]

UMMMM. NO! SHE IS A WINNNER! I LOVE YOU!..not you

[laltretre]

she should have been 4th

[veevee305]

Much as I have tried, I have never been a Khorkina fan. She always seemed to just barely make her skills, and she never had the elegant thinness a lot of gymnasts had, it was more like "lanky awkward adolescent" thin.

[missjpace]

Agree. I have never been able to get into her gymnastics. I'm glad someone shares this viewpoint!

[robertnicci]

@missjpace i just commented on another video. i am with you i can't get into it either. as i said in my previous comment.. i cant enjoy watching sombody who doesn't look as if they are enjoying the performance themselves.. and too stiff and gangly

[thiaguitosmarques]

her face when zamo wins the gold medal was not one of the bests ! hahahahahahah

[dannyradar]

Mr. Photographer, i think shes ready for her close-up.

[shawngold08]

i love the Choreography of this routine

[czucksk84life]

did she win a medal? silver?

[violaroadkill]

yes

[shopos234]
