For me the actual most devastating routines are the ones without a happy ever after. Knowing the gymnast retired without accomplishing what they wanted. For example: Viktoria Komova’s floor AA, she went above and beyond everyone’s expectations with that routine, it was amazing and it still wasn’t able to score high enough, her career ended without the gold she always wanted and was capable of. Sui Lu’s beam final routine. Nailed it and still walked out with a silver. She even said in a recent interview that the one thing she regrets is not winning 😭
Up in their silver medals last year, I’d also have included Makayla Skinner and Vanessa Ferrari. Skinner just missed making the team and Ferrari finished fourth TWICE. Fortunately, those two ended happily.
@@tadg2003 Even though Deng had a fantastic routine, there was something special about Sui’s beam work and I wanted her to win gold so bad. At least she had a world title on beam
Yes!! Victoria Komova! I still cannot believe that she did not get the gold medal on UB at the 2015 worlds. It's some of the most beautiful uneven bars I've ever seen, she delivered and was still robbed!
Yeah but that loss made her into and even bigger superstar than she already was after that stuck vault in the TF because of that little face she pulled. So it worked out for her ultimately.
IMO, Gabby Douglas is one of those "once every few decades" athletes, her 2011 seasons and her overall growth and development as an athlete is almost unbelievable.
@@SociallyDistantnow I feel like it would make the most sense for her to come back in the summer for classics since the Olympic year is next year. She needs to basically showcase herself and gain experience for this quad if she’s aiming for Paris.
I feel she still has so much untapped potential.. one of the most bullied AA champions honestly she didn’t get to enjoy either of her Olympics.. I’m excited to see what she has to offer in her return.
For me, Cheng Fei's falls on vault and floor finals in 2008 were absolutely devastating. She absolutely could've walked away with both titles in 2008 has she hit both events in finals. She tried to comeback for 2012 but wasn't able to get back to her former level.
Mo Huilan's brave smile after she fell on the floor in 1996 with the Olympic gold within her grasp still tears me up. Especially because her back story is so sad.
Rebecca Bross competing again about nine months post surgery is bonkers to me. i got non-knee surgery three months ago and while obviously Bross was (and probably still is) in way better shape than me, i just can't imagine training for anything so soon. just goes to show how much of a badass she was and how incredible modern medicine is, that you can get surgery on an important joint but be well enough to do sports on that level in such a short time
Aliya Mustafina is my goddamned hero. She was competing again months after enduring surgery for the ACL she tore in 2011. She had a baby in 2017... SHE HAD A BABY and returned to training a couple of months later. She'll always be my hero and a seriously underrated gymnast given what she accomplished after the drama in London in 2012.
i GENUINELY have never gotten to understand why Rebecca Bross NEVER changed that beam dismount. She only ever landed it 1% of the time, 99% of the time it was a fall, it made no sense to me whatsoever.
That may be so but she fell on it in so many competitions over the years it make no sense whatsoever to continue competing in it no matter how well she was doing in warmups. It was absolutely horrifying.
That may be so but there are other gymnasts who had injuries that led to permanent paralysis and death. Rebecca was certainly unlucky but it’s important to have some perpective too :(
It may be smaller but Atler's UB fall at 99 nationals still breaks my heart, especially after she told the story of what was going on outside the competition floor. I still think about if she had won that competition, maybe she goes into worlds with more confidence, could have potentially brought a medal on floor, and could have been on the olympic team. Others include: Everyone who was a victim of the 2000 all around vault. If not for that I feel like this would have been up there with 88 as one of the best all around finals ever. The talent there was insane. Mo Huilan 96 The US olympic team in 88. If Rhonda had left the podium, they would have won bronze. The Russian team in 2000. Mohini Bhardwaj 04 floor. If the jump hadn't been downgraded she would have made the podium. The same with Cheng Fei and Daiane Dos Santos and their mistakes :( Kim Zmelskel 91 olympics

ALL these kids deserve CREDIT for a GREAT JOB!! Yes, they have their days when they do NOT feel well so they mess up. EVERYONE has their bad days. The kids do so well overall!!!
Some of the most devastating events in gymnastics are those which occur off the podium or due to sheer bad luck. Roza Galieva, for example, was denied her chance to compete for the AA final in Barcelona 1992 because she was replaced by Tatiana Gutsu, who ended up winning that competition. She got another chance at gold in 1996 during the Atlanta beam final but fell doing the god-awful front tuck. It's a move that looks and feels great when you land it but it's a blind landing and as we've all seen many times, as it did with Galieva in 1996, it can ruin the routines of even the most professional athletes. This was made particularly tragic for Galieva as during the team finals in Atlanta she'd already had the misfortune of competing on the floor at the same time as Strug was competing her famous vaults for the USA. She couldn't hear her music and left the podium crying after she missed the start of her music, meaning that the rest of her routine was ill-timed. Sometimes bad luck contributes to awful outcomes in gymnastics, and I suppose it's the same in many other sports.
To me that wasn't a tragedy. In '92 Olympics, Galieva won a team gold medal and she went to event finals. Sure she missed the all around. In the 1996 Olympic games, Galieva won another team medal and competed in the all around. She also competed in the 1996 event finals. She didn't win any medals and her fans are still cry babies. In the 1996 Olympics, got a 2nd chance. Roza Galieva & Viktoria Komova were 2-time Olympians. Both were 2-time crybabies & so are their fans! Elena Mukhina is a tragedy. The Chinese gymnast, who broke her back at worlds was a great tragedy! Galieva & Komova were not tragedies!
@@ctruth6185 Okay, fair enough, I may have used the word "tragedy" too eagerly. I was a gymnast when Sang Lang - she has a name, BTW - broke her back on the vault. It was horrifying to me at the time, but since then I have known many gymnasts who have broken their spinal cords in accidents on the beam, vault, and bars. Some have walked again - one is competing again! - and some have not. Spinal injuries are actually quite frequent in the world of gymnastics and are real tragedies, it's true. But Galieva would not meet the definition of what I would call a "cry baby," though it's true that she refuses to speak to Tatiana Gutsu even though Gutsu wasn't responsible for the decision which saw her taking the AA gold medal. I may have studied my history but I don't know everything, and I also don't know if Komova would have met the definition of a "cry-baby." I'm not trying to be a dick here, but do you actually know what it feels like to have something that big within your grasp and then to have your own team manager - or in my case, the board's Chairwoman? It's devastating. And considering that in my case somebody tried to Nancy Kerrigan me, but for real, by sabotaging the uneven bars with the hopes that I would be crippled, I do know what it's like to lie on the cold hard floor as coaches surround you and tell you to "Breath, just breathe," while you can hear somebody else screaming in the background to "call the ambulance and tell them that Karajane Chapman has broken her spine!" (It was a small country, and an even smaller region). Fortunately I was absolutely fine, just winded. I would go on to have much more serious injuries due to my own stupidity, which I find ironic. You've got to have a sense of humour about yourself. This all happened way before I was a gymnast, but I studied my gymnastics history very carefully all the way back to the alleged beef between Latynina and Korbut and the well-known beef between Andreea Raducan and pretty much the whole establishment. I sympathise with her - I have had an establishment come down on me (though obviously not as publicly!) for something that wasn't my fault and it cost me my chance at the Olympics. People laugh when I tell them that I am thinking of trying again for Brisbane 2032. but that only makes me more determined! 🙂
Okay, fair enough - I may have used the word "tragedy" a bit too liberally here. I was a junior gymnast when Sang Lan - that's her name, BTW - broke her back on the vault and it was horrifying to me. It very nearly gave me the twisties myself, as it did for several gymnasts I knew at the time. But Galieva doesn't meet the definition of a "cry-baby" as far as I know, although it is true that to this day she refuses to speak to Gutsu even though it wasn't Tatiana Gutsu's decision that took Galieva's chance at Olympic gold from her and saw Gutsu standing on the podium instead. I've studied my history all the way back to the alleged beef between Korbut and Latynina and the very public beefs between Andreea Raducan and pretty much the whole FIG and the gymnastics establishment in Romania, though I don't know everything - nobody does - and I don't know if Komova qualifies as a "cry-baby" either. And I'm not trying to be a dick here, but do you know what it feels like to have something that big within your grasp and then have the establishment seize it from you? I do. I was such an apparent threat - I was the first Power Gymnast in my nation - that somebody tried to Nancy Kerrigan me but for real, sabotaging the uneven bars so that I would fall and, in her hopes, cripple myself. I know what it's like to lie on the cold, hard floor and have people hovering over you, telling you to "Breath, just breathe." Believe me, Million Dollar Baby is not easy to watch, especially when I heard people behind me screaming that "Somebody needs to call the ambulance and tell them that Karajane Chapman has broken her spine" (It was a small nation. Like, a really small nation. And an even smaller region. The hospitals ER department knew me by face and name). Like I said, I'm not trying to be a dick - I know what it's like to fear the worst. I'm one of the lucky ones though - I got up and walked off, so when people laugh at me when I say that I just might try for Brisbane 2032, it only makes me more determined. 🙂 @@ctruth6185
"If we remove the 3 falls from her score, she would've ended up with the bronze medal" She also missed the bonus for the 3 floor tumbling passes that she sat down, so she would probably receive the score she needed for the gold medal if she had hit.
I’m going to call it like I see it. Rebecca Bross is a rare example of a gymnast who came out of Texas Dreams and actually got to senior elites. It seems like TD turns out more injuries than champions. All their athletes burn out in junior elites. Rebecca Bross spent the least amount of time at TD and made it to senior elites. Yet like all the TD athletes injuries truncated her career.
People have been speculating whether she’ll come back this year or next year. But if she comes back to compete, like 2015, she had a whole year of basically just conditioning so idk what she’ll do.
I really liked Bross but she was scary to watch at times. I wasn’t surprised when she did her knee. It was only a matter of time. I thought it would have been on beam with the Arabian double dismount.
The most devastating should include all the athletes who literally died or became paralyzed in competition or training. Otherwise the title needs to go! Also where is Ragan's world's warm up injury knocking her out before she could start on this list? Or Katelyn Ohashi breaking her back at like 12? Or Vanessa Atler or Kerri Strug both being needlessly injured in the name of medals and 1st place finishes. Where's the gigantic list of now known abusers in all forms and their amazing athletes who defied all of it and still won?!
She did not lose the gold for team USA and I cannot believe this fiction is still out there. Even if they had all hit their routines they would not have had the score to beat China. The other american gymnasts also had deductions that contributed to their loss. Their deductions alone without Alicia's floor and beam falls would have been enough to keep them from the gold.
For me the actual most devastating routines are the ones without a happy ever after. Knowing the gymnast retired without accomplishing what they wanted. For example: Viktoria Komova’s floor AA, she went above and beyond everyone’s expectations with that routine, it was amazing and it still wasn’t able to score high enough, her career ended without the gold she always wanted and was capable of.

But DLL also nailing the routine.

Yeah but that loss made her into and even bigger superstar than she already was after that stuck vault in the TF because of that little face she pulled. So it worked out for her ultimately.
I know I think about that at least once a week 😥 She'll never have an Olympic gold medal on vault 💔

@@pme8370 Agree
Right, it was always so scary
This is a fantastic series..... Can we go back further.... 1994 Keri Strug, Dominique Dawes World vaults... Vanessa Alter,
I wouldn't say Bross had bad luck. If anything she had good luck being in a code where a fall kept you in the medals. She won 2 AA medals with falls.
I would call her injuries very unlucky.
That may be so but there are other gymnasts who had injuries that led to permanent paralysis and death. Rebecca was certainly unlucky but it’s important to have some perpective too :(

She did not lose the gold for team USA and I cannot believe this fiction is still out there. Even if they had all hit their routines they would not have had the score to beat China. The other american gymnasts also had deductions that contributed to their loss. Their deductions alone without Alicia's floor and beam falls would have been enough to keep them from the gold.
