I really don't understand this. I mean, it was a great montage, but the title is "When Dreams Fall Apart". There wasn't as many mistakes in it as I thought. What's the story?

[AshleyakaFlipper]

@1ShawnJohnson1 You have to know their individual stories to understand. Atler & Vise were both front runners for the 2000 & 2004 Olympics - their dreams were cut short by inconsistency & falls. Raducan got her gold medal taken from her because she took a cold pill... this montage isn't focusing on their mistakes - just the aftermath of them...

[1ShawnJohnson1]

She took a COLD pill? But, why, what's the big deal?

[AshleyakaFlipper]

@1ShawnJohnson1 it contained a substance it in that was banned. Search her on google you can probably figure out the whole story

Vanessa didn't die. She was just left off the 2000 Olympic team.

@ParanoidAndroidDA I heard the petition, I dont understand why they rejected it. But, it shows how Romania can come together in tough times :)

[ParanoidAndroidDA]

@TayTayandZoee She petitioned to get back but they rejected it. Simona Amanar gave Andreaa the medal she was given though and a Romanian jeweller gave her a medal made of solid gold, she also got double the prize money from a group of bankers. I know it doesn't make up for an Olympic gold but it's some consolation in a small way.

whos the girl at 2:56 ??

@AshleyakaFlipper I've always thought that if Atler had been born in the next quad there would be no doubt she'd have made the 04 team, specialists were appreciated more than they were in 2000, she wouldn't have even had to do bars. Really too bad, she was soooo crazy talented.

[TayTayandZoee]

@itsbeccaforreals Exactly. I don't get it, did they even try giving her medal back(officially) after they unbanned the substance? I know it was later added back but still, they took it off, she got her medal taken away for it, so why, when it was taken off, didnt they attempt to give the medal back? Oh well, I can't wait for her book to come out in english. My mom wont let me read it in romanian..dunno why.
