Sad gymnastics

She missed on bars because she was so shaken (and probably in pain) after falling twice on vaults, and this purely because the officials failed the adjust the vault to correct height after the previous day's men's competitions. The mistake was inexcusable, and it totally ruined the Russians' concentration and cost them the Gold. They knew it and they were understandably pissed for being robbed of what should have rightfully been theirs.

Poor Svetlana. Some say she was a diva, but I think only elite athletes truly understand that level of passion.

@SonyaNatalia 2 time olympic champion and I-dont-remember-how-many-time world champion ???? Maybe it's another Svetlana Khorkina.
She was a great bar worker with innovative and RISKY skills. I don't like her BB, FX and VT but at least I recognize her bars were briliant.

poor pavs :(

@justin1gibson I still think it's a miracle that none of those girls broke their necks. Some of those falls were a hair's breadth away and looked really scary.

I always thought Svetlana Khorkina looked like an alien.

I guess it's hard to make one of these "mistake" videos and get many Romanians in it. But there are plenty of opportunities to put in Americans.
the vault that svetlana khorkina under rotated wasnt her fault! that was at the 2000 olympics and someone had set the vault to low!! there were alot of gymnasts that were under rotating their vaults and someone finally went to see what the problem was, and it was set way to low!! i think that all the girls that vaulted when it was like that should have been able to do it over, but they werent given that chance. i think someone did it on purpose , a sabotage attempt!! its to bad!!

@justin1gibson all the gymnasts were given the choice to redo the vault or not. Svetlana chose not to take a 2nd try.
