There is no one like Nadia. No matter how many tumbles they do no one has the same quality. She was so perfect...

@CaptainRhoo no, I agree. Thom York would b slap you. This song is an afront to Radiohead and all evidence should be burned to a crisp. That being said, when muted this video is superb!

i cant believe they have the bars that close i use mine at F.I.G. and im pretty tiny and that they used the horse like that!
-
i think the routines have improved through the years...and are more complicated..i didnt like the bars when they were so close together..prefer the newer stuff :) and the newer vault is safer...miss gymnastics

They didn't show the 1980 Olympics.

Today's gymnastics is actually much much harder than the stuff from the 60's in particular. The skills are much more difficult; the bar is raised every year. Vault started out as horses and only recently changed to the vaulting table they use today, which is much safer.

Farrrgh! You ass!
Now that I've effectively stooped to your level: seriously, you need to find something better to do with your life than make silly comments on YouTube. Seriously. Farrrgh? If you're going to insult something, try, I don't know, using words.
Oh, and the song's pretty damn good, too. But I wouldn't expect someone with your vocabulary to understand that.
