- Tokyo, JAPAN - 1994 World Challenge of Champions, Figure Skating, Pairs' Free Skate - First, a profile on Ekaterina Gordeeva and Sergei Grinkov of Russia, followed by their skate.
- Sport
They are so beautiful when they are on the ice. One more year and he was gone.. I could watch them all day.
The way in which Sergei always lifted Katia (as if she were literally as light as a feather) is something you don’t see elsewhere. They were just magical together, on and off the ice. Truly something beautiful and special to behold....
Lovely pair forever
Kimberly Bellefontaine exactly. He always skated like she was delicate and could break. Made for an outstanding pair.
Sara G. : Katia said in her memoir that one of their coaches told Sergei: ‘You must throw her as if though she were a crystal vase’
@@elizabethpease947 and he did it, he always was really carefully and lovely with her, you can see his love in his eyes, hands, arms and entery body and his expresions.
@@blancaidaliamoreno7907 they were made for one another, like a fairy tale, only real.
I read her book. Sergei really took care of her, she was comfortable. She did mention that her struggles were nothing compared to life struggles. She was able to learn how to live after he was gone. I can’t imagine how she’ll grow up as well with Sergei protecting her all the time. Still doesn’t change that fact that I’m still heartbroken for them…
I could watch this over and over. It is true artistry. They have matured as skaters as well as people. It’s heartbreaking to think that Sergei wasn’t allowed to grow old with his beautiful wife and child. How cruel life can be 😢😢
Lesle, me to, I watch this over and over, it almost seems to be one person on the ice skating with there shadow, amazing..
😭
I know you’ll hate me for this but I believe he was close to cheating on her that’s why God took him away so that their love was not stained
@@miyumiyu12why do u say that?
You can just feel how much they love each other. Sergei seemed like such a great father!
They made magic together. It can be seen and felt that they were made for each other. How destiny can be cruel sometimes....his daughter, who us now in her 30ies looks exactly like him....
I remember watching them when I was a little girl but I never knew he died! How heartbreaking.
Who can watch any G&G performance and not cry? I cannot.
nobody, life is so unfair
I love watching them over and over again!
They were in a class by themselves. Truly a romantic and beautiful looking couple on ice!
Нет слов!!!! Эмоции переполняют. Сильная музыка, катание просто Космос!!! Шедеврально!!!!
Наша школа фигурного катания!! Гордимся вами,ребята,всегда! Светлая память Сергею...
Wow!
There will never be another pair like them.
Agreed. In the skating world where it seems jump and lifts rule, these two were something special because of their artistry combined with athleticism. No one could match them.
they are always a joy to watch....sooo relaxing and mesmerizing their performances...
They were the very best, always perfection.
We’ve watched these two Beautiful Young Pair Skaters grow-up right before our very eyes. They Compliment each other Perfectly On and Off the Ice. This Performance was Phenomenal and their marks should have been Higher. I Never grow tired of watching their Breathtakingly Beautiful Performances. Long Live The Greatest Pairs Team of All Time.
They truly were the best, such a shame that Sergei had to leave this Earth so early.. he deserved more time with his wife and daughter😔 If he lived longer I'm sure they would've won Olympic gold again and we would've enjoyed more of their amazing performances. Such a breathtaking couple on and off ice, so sad they didn't have more time together.
@@masap9080 Yes I Get That Too!. They both were at the Top of their game! both literally and figuratively. However God had that decision to make, not us. We must be Grateful for the Time and the Impeccable Legacy that they gave us. Isn’t it Grand that when they were children a Skating Coach “Paired them Together”?. Even then this Coach saw Greatness in them that probably no one else could see at the time. I Wish that there was a way to Know Who he was? Anyway I believe that Devine Intervention was at work. Their lives were Woven Together too well; like a Match “Made In Heaven”. Oh! Well enough from me. I just wanted to get back to you because you sounded very nice. Besides!, Anybody that Loved those Pair’s Skaters have to be Good People. Take Care and God Bless. 🙏🏻
They sacrificed for each other. He lifted her so carefully and she said when she new he wasn’t feeling well she would starve herself to be as light as possible for him to lift. True caring and love
Their skating and love still brings me to tears...♥️💔
Great and lovely athletes and artists, Ekaterina e Sergey: never I will forget them together, at that time I was starting to love skating. Every time I see them in some video with Daria, I feel really sorry and sad because he had not the chance for spending long time with their daughter and his wife.
БРАВО!!!МОИ ЛЮБИМЫЕ ФИГУРИСТЫ!!!❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥
Spectacular. Elegant. So in love and so missed each and every day.
🧜🏼♀️ Une vidéo touchante qui montre aussi comme ils s’aimaient hors patinoire. Un drame vraiment terrible, cette mort si jeune qui a frappé ce couple si adorable parents d’une petite fille magnifique devenue une très belle jeune femme. RIPSergei , Katia a eu beaucoup de courage et a pu refaire sa vie en rendant toujours hommage à Sergei. Une perfection autant artistique qu’esthétique pour ce couple de patineurs libres, qui ne sera jamais oublié et un des meilleurs de tous les temps. 🥰🧜🏼♀️
One in a billion, exquisite!
❤️🌿I NEVER GET TIRED GOING BACK TO WATCH THIS PERFORMANCE OF KATIA AND HER BELOVED LATE HUSBAND SERGEI JUST BECAUSE I LIKE TO REMEMBER SERGEI'S GIFT OF LIFE SPENT AND SHARED WITH US SPECIALLY WITH HIS BELOVED KATIA AND DAUGHTER DARIA. GOD BLESS KATIA.
Лучшие на все времена.❤
Как же они друг друга чувствовали.Невероятная пара!
Absolutely the best
My eyes always watched him, I admit to having a huge crush and his death still hits hard.
Красивейшие и талантливейшие!!! 👍👍👍👍👍😘
Yes, the saddest thing to happen to a beautiful couple. Still breaks my ❤️. They brought such joy to all who watched them skate. Pure perfection . Catherinas first performance after Sergei's passing is something I will never forget. It was as if she floated over the ice. Just tragic.
I remember that performance. While exquisite, she looked so alone.
Уникальный дуэт был.
Большие труженики.Сергей лучший,восхищаюсь. Себя не берёг. Светлая память.
Ваша правда! Сергей себя не берег.Всегда скромный на втором плане.вечная память!
@@user-gq4ih4cj7e Без сарказма нельзя прокомментировать?
Молодость,грация,красота!
Well, here is the truth:
Love can move mountains!
Так трогательно и больно...
Never saw another pair who were so in tuned...like a well oiled machine and a pair doing ballet...all in one. Saw a vid of a French couple trying to do pairs...they had power, but no grace or perfect timing...it makes a huge difference.
I wouldn’t want to be the skaters right after these two. Tough act to follow.
Мастера высочайшего класса. Так близко друг к другу исполняют прыжки и вращения, сейчас уже так не могут. Даже современным парам это сейчас слабо....
Сейчас катание технически сложенее, но теряется легкость, скольжение.
Супер, браво, сказка!
It's so very sad when someone loses their life so young.RIP.
Russian skaters always pick good music
КРАСОТА! БРАВО!
8:16 Sergei was so cute omg🥰
can't beat classic. So elegant
I see sergei as an angel that lift Ekaterina above
I was just saying to my mom as we were watching the Olympics this year, that no one matches their talent and artistry.
So very true! No one comes close, GG the best of
All time yesterday, today and forever💕💕💕
I agree.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ thm v much
MAJESTUOSOS. MUCHAS GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR. SALUDOS FRATERNALES DESDE ARGENTINA.
Ой бай...в 5:40 я не могу, так трогательно, Катены движения с руками, это не возможно смотреть, слёзы текут, я не могу... ну просто, даже не знаю что писать, ПРЕЛЕСТЬ. Такая пара была, блин жалко. Почему бог Сергея к себе забрал? Только он сам знает... 😔
Есть такое выражение в английском: shit happens!.. Никто не предполагал, что у него серьёзные проблемы с сердцем!!..Там целый штат врачей, всех регулярно проверяли...однако такое, как у Сергея, сложно диагностицируется без специальных приборов, на кардиограмме этого не видно! Сейчас бы точно не проспали!!.
@@whitecat3923 Вы все правильно сказали, я с Вами солидарна. Очень печально конечно, но наверно это судьба....
Sometimes, there's just too much beauty....
The first time they performed this routin...
And the last time they performed it, their ever last public performance...
😥😢😭✝️🙏⛸️⛸️💕💐
The best ever
Forever in our hearts✝️🙏🙏🙏♥️💕🩷
They made it look so incredibly easy!
Painful to watch as you know the ending …..there were magic….truly never anyone like them since 😢
So much love
Эх Сергей,Сергей как жаль тебя,но жизнь такая не предсказуема.СВЕТЛАЯ ПАМЯТЬ ТЕБЕ!!!!!!
At the very end of the video the guy says " and now here to challenge... " LOL As if any of the other pairs skaters could have possibly challenged G & G.
Phyllis Mick : Artur Dmietriev and Natalia M. gave it a pretty good try.
@@elizabethpease947 Artur Dmietriev and Natalia M are excellent. But they were not refined, elegant, artistic and in unison like G&G. This pair is another level.
@@madhaviariyabandu1154 Maybe so, but the majority of the crowd that night applauded more for Artur and Natalia than G&G.
@@elizabethpease947 Their music had a crowd pleasing tempo, skated excellently that evening and they are a great pair, G&G however are at another level, it showed technically as well as easthetically in their programme in Lilihammer.
@@madhaviariyabandu1154 Absolutely true!!
If only Doctor’s found it before he died like my own husband’s Dr did. He had a triple bypass and almost died, but was blessed to have survived. Every time I watch them, I wish they had known……😢
I assume G&G won?
На протяжении многих лет, наши лучшие фигуристы!
They were still the best couple ever!
Марина Зуева просто молодец!
Не только она,здесь супер талантливые фигуристы !
@@user-kb9gt5pr6eЗуева до сих пор тренирует мастеров фигурного катания!!) Тесса&Скотт, Мэрил&Чарли...
Rest in peace dear Sergei✝️🙏🌷♥️
Предвещало беду этот реквием
Не верю
Я тоже так думаю
The BEST.
Лучшая пара в Советском Союзе, сейчас Катя в Америке живёт.Супер, чемпионы !!!!
Вечные.... Венчанные...
Я несколько раз видела это выступление и каждый раз задаю вопрос:" Кто автор подбора этой мелодии?!" Молодая пара спортсменов, а МОЛОДОСТЬ- это оптимизм и мыслей об уходе естественно нет. ТАК ПОЧЕМУ РЕКВИЕМ? АНАЛИЗИРУЯ ВИДЕОРОЛИКИ, КОТОРЫЕ Я ПРОСМОТРЕЛА, НАПРАШИВАЕТСЯ ВЫВОД- ЭТО ТОЛЬКО ЧЕЛОВЕК С ЧЕРНОЙ ЗАВИСТЬЮ МОГ ПРЕДЛОЖИТЬ ТАКУЮ МЕЛОДИЮ. ПУСТЬ ЭТО КЛАССИЧЕСКАЯ МУЗЫКА, НО ОНА НЕ ДОЛЖНА БЫЛА ЗВУЧАТЬ В ВЫСТУПЛЕНИИ СПОРТСМЕНОВ. ЗРИТЕЛИ НА ЛЕДОВОЙ АРЕНЕ И ТЕЛЕЗРИТЕЛИ СЛЫШАЛИ ЕЁ ОДИН РАЗ, А СЕРГЕЙ И КАТЯ МНОГО РАЗ. И УЧИТЫВАЯ, ЧТО В ТЕЧЕНИИ ШЕСТИ МЕСЯЦЕВ СЕРГЕЮ НЕ МОГЛИ ПОСТАВИТЬ ДИАГНОЗ, А ТОЛЬКО КОЛОЛИ ОБЕЗБОЛИВАЮЩИЕ УКОЛЫ, ТО СЕРГЕЯ СТАНОВИТСЯ БЕСКОНЕЧНО ЖАЛЬ!!! КАК БУДТО БЫ СПЕЦИАЛЬНО НЕ ВИДЕЛИ ЕГО СТРАДАНИЙ! КТО ИЗ НИХ ДЕРЖАЛСЯ БЫ НА УКОЛАХ? ДА НИКТО! ЕСЛИ БЫ СЕРГЕЙ БЫЛ В РОССИИ, ТО ВСЁ БЫЛО БЫ ПО ДРУГОМУ. РОДИНА ЕСТЬ РОДИНА: ТАМ МАМА, СЕСТРА, ДРУЗЬЯ, ОДНОКЛУБНИКИ, ЦСК И ДРУГИЕ НЕРАВНОДУШНЫЕ ЛЮДИ. ОЧЕНЬ ЖАЛЬ...И ОЧЕНЬ ЖАЛЬ, ЧТО НИКТО УЖЕ НЕ БУДЕТ НАКАЗАН ЗА ЭТО РАВНОДУШИЕ, А В ДАННОЙ СИТУАЦИИ ЗА ПРЕСТУПЛЕНИЕ ПРОТИВ СЕРГЕЯ ГРИНЬКОВА! ОТВЕЧАТЬ ДОЛЖНЫ В ПЕРВУЮ ОЧЕРЕДЬ ТЕ, КТО ПРИГЛАСИЛ ЕГО В ЧУЖУЮ СТРАНУ, ЯЗЫКА КОТОРОЙ ОН НЕ ЗНАЛ ДА И ЗНАТЬ НЕ ХОТЕЛ И НЕ СТРЕМИЛСЯ.
Мне написала женщина, что жена должна была всё понимать и чувствовать. Я ей так отвечу: что бы чувствовать, надо быть морально и духовно женой!
А Екатерина была фанатически влюблена в лёд. Я не осуждаю, пусть любит, но в первую очередь надо УВАЖАТЬ ЛЮДЕЙ, КОТОРЫЕ С РЯДОМ. Всё прошло...
Абсолютно правы,добавить нечего! Светлая Память Сергею!

I understand that Katie was only 4 feet, 9 inches tall and weighed about 37kgs.
Оказывается трагедия в США произошла, а я не могла понять, ведь спортсмены у нас тщательное обследование проходят .В Америке нужен результат, а на людей им плевать. Очень жаль Сергея !
Почему все на английском? Они жили в США???
Да.Какое-то время .
Да.
В СССР развалилось всё, включая спорт.

Creepiest music so ominous and forboding😔Hated this program!!
Just f*ck off!! 👎🏼

Ваша великолепная американская медицина угробила парня.
Я тоже так считаю,как можно не заметить больное сердце? Очень жаль Сергея!
Может специально не хотели лечить ? Иногда приходят такие мысли . Но наверное мы никогда не узнаем об этом .
@@user-wv5hh9el8r Не пишите такую ерунду!! 👎🏼
@@user-kb9gt5pr6e Страховки, наверное, медицинской не было. Даже с ней там обращаться в больницу дорого!
They were in Russia for 6 months before training for their last Olympics. Why didn't your state run doctors not detect anything???
爱她他的人基本都死亡了，恶魔又要来了。人啊！不忘了善良。.
You loved them cause they were beautiful to your liking..you LOVED the fact they in the END trained in the US. You would not care otherwise. They were a product of the USSR. We fed and let them grow up. We paid our taxes for them to become what they become.
I don't think most Americans know or cared that they trained latter in their career in the U.S., at least I did not. Most just know that they represented Russia and were among the greatest of all skating pairs.
AMAZING FAMILY...💥💕💙💙🌹♥️♥️😇🙏🙏🙏😇🙏😇🙏🌻🙏😇♥️🌹💙💙💕💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💕💕💥💥💥💥💥
I still miss then, Sergei, after 20 years I still cry, i and the world miss you
Exquisite, perfection. So lovely, so moving. Timeless.
What a BEAUTIFUL program. Wow!!! Amazing to look back at their 1988 Olympic program and then watch this one. They were already excellent back in 1988, no doubt about that. But this program shows just how much “better” they became over the years, how more refined and elegant and in synch they became - even for the incomparable pair of G & G....👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
They just got better with age and they were not even that old here!
Twenty-three years since his death and I miss him terribly. How hard it must be for Katia. No other skaters have even come close to the skill and beauty of these two. Just two weeks after this competition Sergei passed away. 😢😢
I think you are confused. This is a 1994 competition and Sergei died in November of 1995 not two weeks after they skated here.
glitterskate8 Ooppps, my bad.
Looking at this now in 2020. So lo gnago but miss those precious time and this special couple. She tried to go on with her life with Illa but your cannot repeat what special bond she had with Sergi.
Amy Campbell It takes a special kind of stupid to write a comment like Elizabeth’s. I was devastated when the news of his death broke and I didn’t even know him. Thank you for your comment. Obviously, Elizabeth Pease has never experienced deep love.
Amy Campbell : I deleted all my comments, okay?
Watching them is always an amazing wonder that we will never see again. God bless you, Sergei!
We lost a great man when we lost him. No doubt about it...
WOW! Superb! The best pair on ice ever. I can't get enough of G and G.
Not only you!!..
Gordeeva and Grinkov had an amazing powerful performance
absolutely stunning performance true love intertwined into it aswell
I am an ardent G& G fan. My favorite used to be the 1988 Olympic Gold performance. Then I preferred the 1994 Gold performance. But after seeing this performance I am in absolute awe. This one is the best. As someone else said Sergei never looked better and yet he died 2 weeks later
You are confused. This is 1994 Canadian performance and Sergei died in November 1995 not two weeks after this performance.
@@glitterskate8 You're the one confused. This was the 1994 WORLD Professional Championship in Tokyo.
@@laurab5750 No.
Thank You Thank You for posting this!!! I have been looking for this particular G&G program for a while now! Its one of my favorite! Well....ok so i love every program they ever did!! lol I am only the biggest G&G fan EVER!! :) This one is very beautiful though! Thanks again!!
That twist jump at 3:33 was pretty sweet. Very cool program, even with the "scary epic" music. I love the Japanese kids in the kiss and cry area at the end, pushing flowers and keepsakes from the audience on them. Katia looked quite buried beneath it all and Sergei was just trying to accept the loads as fast as they were bringing them, lol!
I'm also mesmerize with this twist jump, it's elegant and matches the music so well !
Maravilhoso !!! Inesquecível Sergei !!!
I love this program. I wonder where they would be with their 3 children Sergei wanted had he lived. They would still be happy and skating! 💋💙💋
L
..or they wouldn't skate more, if Sergei's heart problems would have been diagnosed... But they would have long happy life!!!
I've always loved her
such a beautiful pair with exquisite moves like ballerinas you cant take yor eyes off them im spell bound by them G&G Forever amen
Heavenly.
How tragic that their last major program together was to the Requiem.
Indeed.. They better shouldn't take this music!!..and should give more attention Sergei's heart!..because his father died at heart-attack, 52 years old and Sergei had sometimes aches in his back, but nobody had got an idea to check his heart!..and then..on 20th of November 1995...😔 RIP, Sergei!..🥀💕
I realize nothing can be done about it now, but in that last Olympic performance, you can clearly see Sergei is struggling and gasping for breath at the end, even leaning on Katia. Why did no one become alarmed by this? His father had died young of a heart attack as well not too long before that. His death could have been prevented. I will never understand this.
IslandGirl 9152 : According to Katia’s book, Sergei’s father, Mikhail, had had four heart attacks in his lifetime. Sergei’s heart attacks could not have been prevented. He had a defective gene in the make up of his body. His arteries of his heart were seen to be completely blocked at his autopsy.
No one back then would have ever thought that a 28-year-old Olympic athlete had a heart problem. No doctor would have ordered a stress test. Don’t know if that is any different now for Olympians in their twenties. His father was in terrible shape compared to Sergei and lived to be 55.
@@ravenel2 I thought Katia said his father was also huge and solid like Sergei? But even then if someone’s father had 4 heart attacks in their life, no matter how old you are or how fit you are someone should have considered that
@ja3399 I am also a fan of S&Z & was thrilled when they won gold at the Olympics!I still keep up with pairs figure skating & there have been some great pairs since G&G.....but i have not seen the breathtaking magical,unity of G&G in any one of them & doubt i ever will!But you are right,they left us a great legacy & thanks to CZcams we can still be mesmerized by the magic of G&G!!
