Without sounding like a creep, she really did have the most beautiful GYMNASTIC body. Along with Silivas, Dudnik and Omelianchik... they were:
*Short, but NOT stubby.
*Very thin, but NOT lanky.
*Muscular, but NOT manly.
There are actually not that many gymnasts with this "ideal" body type at the TOP of gymnastics today - really just the Chinese girls, and a couple of young Russians and Romanians.

Yeah, that is the body type I like most for gymnasts. Nastia, Khorkina and Yang Yilin are too tall that they look anorexic. Shawn Johnson and some gymnasts is too muscular that they are like doing men's gymnastics. In the 1980s, the gymnasts' body lines are pleasant to watch. They really suit the moves.

@3Axel1996 He didn't make a mistake. Officially she was 15, the Romanian government said so.

Commentator misspoke. Aurelia was only 14 when she won the title here.

I don't think Nastia looked starved! I think these girls all looked anorexic! You can see their ribs!

@pinkymonero olga mostepanova was doing one in 84

@gymnasticsforever17 Natalia Yurchenko (from the former Soviet Union) unveiled this vault in 1982. That's why it called a Yurchenko. She did it a tucked position
-
oh my flipping god pause at 0:15 she looks DISGUSTINGLY skinny
-
this vault was not really deserving of a ten, not even by the that code.
I'm glad she won though.
:) :)

Truly perfect, I have never seen such a wonderful vault.
-
Beautiful vault-well deserved 10.0.
I believe this is the first time anyone ever did a laid out yurchenko...
