Vera Caslavska TCH
1968 Olympics, floor exercise

A wonderful floor exercise by Vera Caslavska, one of the greatest gymnastics champions of all time. Notice how well she works with the music. Gymnasts were so graceful back then.

  • I love that if you took me back to the '60s I would've been capable of an Olympic gymnastics routine... lolz, impossible for me now

  • @mikeflanny22 her tumbling is difficult for the time, gymnastics were a completely different sport back then

  • 0:29 that hair bobble is hilarious!!

  • its more interesting to watch than todays gymnasts!

  • What a honor for the hosting country...lovely interpretation of mexican songs into gymnastics. Khorkina made it too years later with her very flirtatious Besame Mucho. Cheers!

  • @mikeflanny22 Because there's no springs in the floor like there are today. It's all strength.

  • Impresionate Vera la novia de mexico, jarabe tapatio, alla en el rancho grande. Bravo Vera.

  • Why is there Absolutely no difficulty in her tumbling...

  • Just beautiful movements, and you can see the joy in her performance.

    Plus she has a woman's body, she's not 4 foot tall and stick-thin...

  • OH WOW! Jam packed with artistry!
