Anyone Watching The Gymnastics

[Bobbisox1]

I've been glued to them am

nd it's prompted me to watch a documentary about Olga Korbut on YT, what a nasty coach he was , he forced her to have sex with him  a couple of days before the 1972 Olymics ,well worth a watch ,he was a pedophile , no messing

I meant to watch the gym, but forgot all about it. I love gymnastics. It's the only sport I was any good at.

I remember Olga - she was magnificent, and a joy to watch.

 

I didn't know about her coach - what a dirty old man - should be gaoled.

Look at the YT documentary Canary ( shocking)

me too Clover , I loved Gymnastics at school 

[Rosetta]

I have been watching. How the men do the rings in particular is just staggering

[Maydup]

It's on again Friday Clover

BBC2 - women's finals. 

I'm loving it, all very competitive and tense. Such talented athletes.

Olga was 17 when she was raped, so he is a monster but not a paedophile.  

I think Olga is the only gymnast I can name

Ludmilla Tourischeva & Nadia Comăneci Barry, both exciting to watch , the latter broke all records by scoring perfect 10s

Bobbi can you give a link to the documentary in your OP please.  There are loads of Olga YT videos but I can't tell which one it is.  Thank you.
