Annia Portuondo-Hatch performs her uneven bars routine in the preliminary round of competition at the 1996 World Championships. She places 17th, just missing the 16th spot to advance to the semi-final round.
Forced to do gymnastics as a child by her Communist government, her mother was stabbed in the uterus each time she lost an AA competition. Luckily, the '96 Worlds was not an AA meet.

@vontrappster And I thought Saddam Hussein was an evil man by killing his Iraqi citizens when they didn't win soccer matches.

Her giant fulls looked like completely different elements with that big form break.
