  • Judging based on past performance instead of what's in front of them.

  • The look on his face when he sees the score and realizes he's 4th breaks my heart. He knew he'd done his best performance and he'd had such a difficult Olympics. He so wanted to have his moment, to look up at the scoreboard that told him he's the champion. Then that. What a slap in the face. Those judges should be ashamed of themselves. How they could see that routine and feel that three others were better is beyond me. Poor kid.

  • Such a shame. I don't get it at all. It's one thing that he didn't win gold but nobody can convince that three people did better routines that night. Tim said it best: an outrage. Poor kid: he had such a difficult Games and he deserved something to salvage the experience. I wish the crowd had gone insane at the judges, willing them to change the score like they did for Nemov in 2004.

  • Ha ha. That's a common custom in Russia and other former Soviet nations. You may have noticed that women do it, as well. I'm not sure if that's the case anywhere else, though.

  • what those judges did to him was so criminal.how can those s.o.b's live with themselves knowing they steal peoples dreams that they work soo hard for.

  • Nine years ago when I first watched his performance, I KNEW he deserved Gold- and he was ROBBED!!! Nine years later, I still believed he was robbed of horizontal bars Gold. Maybe the judges didn't give him the scores because he erred so many times during team competition?

  • Bodarenko was a very talented gymnast. In my opinion, his performances in major championships were not the best he could give. In this performance though, it is clear that he was robbed.

  • step away from the sheltered box you live in. There are many different cultures out there.
