  • We were talking about this performance at lunch today. We remembered it was the 1976 Olympics, and that it was a Japanese gymnast who did the rings with a broken leg, but we could not remember his name. I almost feel ashamed for that after looking him up and finding this video. Thank you for posting it.

  • Here in the west we tend to admire athletes who win Gold only to relinquish it after being caught using banned substances. I was young when this happened but it stayed with me throughout the years and still I admire him after all this time. Havn't seen a similar act of courage since.

  • OMG he is an inspiriration

  • Meu, o cara é o máximo!

  • This is extremely inspiring.

  • I made a mental not to myself Years ago that I wouldnt forget Shun Fujimoto's name. He showed courage through pain and triumphed to help his team obtain the gold. A legend...

    Funny thing... In a recent interview with Fujimoto, when asked, If he were to do it over again would he? He said emphatically..... "NO, I wouldnt not!" LOL

    hehehehe

  • Incredible. Absolutely incredible.

  • Self Sacrifice, advice for the 2010 Japanese Olympic Team who didn't win any Gold Medals. They really have to get their act together and get mentally stronger

    Peace and love
