Watching the Olympics now (2024) and there’s many gymnasts who have incredible power and technique… but none match Nadia’s grace and elegance. There’s a certain fluidity in her movements that make her special.
The standard they have to live up to now is also insane. Every year they have to do more and more, push further and further which, while impressive, it definitely takes something away from the beauty and ease that these earlier gymnasts had. It’s practically impossible to get a perfect 10 in 2024
It's the body structure..lanky, lean has a built in grace in gymnastics, figure skating ..the muscular "compact" body may outperform in strength maneuvers, but the grace and beauty isn't there..
Wonder who else is watching the 2024 Olympics, impressed by the athleticism of current gymnasts, then found this and like me sat utterly entranced by the ethereal beauty of Nadia's performances? Breathtaking and somehow moving. I am as hypnotised now as I was a child watching all those years ago. Magical memories.
Your words are magnificent. This year is my first year of not watching the Olympic Games. France has ruined it for me. I’ll just watch past games and be happy
Totalmente de acuerdo contigo, pero entonces porque en estas Olimpiadas de Paris 2024 todo mundo (comentaristas ,conductores y más) dice que la Estadounidense Simone es la mejor de todos los tiempos, que como ella no hay nadie y a Nadia la mencionan por sus grandes actuaciones pero nada más y hacen mucho énfasis en que Simone es la mejor. Para mi nadie será como Nadia, ella es perfección, belleza, sutileza. Simone es excelente pero se me hace más fuerza que belleza. Saludos. 🖐
@@dulcetovar3449 Simone was trained by the same coaches during camp each year. But she also has the most wold campionships and the most Olympic golds EVER. by the numbers she is the best in the world. She has also made 5 year moves or techniques that have offcially been named by her. She has created the most new moves in the sport in history. She is changing the entire future of the sport. Nadia was a goat also but by shear number of rewards Simone is the best.
Shes still the best even after all these years. Her grace, elegance and unmatched talent just can't be duplicated. She is one of a kind. Perfection. She could never know she was making history.
No disrespect to the current gymnasts as their athleticism is amazing but Nadia WAS perfection. Her combination of extension, grace and fluidity of movement while executing challenging gymnastic moves has never been replicated. She will forever be the best gymnast ever.
Hola!!!!. Estoy absolutamente de acuerdo. Ella es y será la reina de la gimnasia. Bella,plástica,suave,si parece que levitaba. Aun me asombro de ver sus rutinas y me maravillo. Un abrazo.❤
There’s no doubt on this planet earth Nadia Comǎneci from Romania is icon not only just gymnast, but the entire Olympic Games history. That’s why everyone around the world is looking at her and wanted to be like her. With seven perfect 10, she’s become the greatest of all time.
I agree with you… my son being a journalist was in Paris those last few days and met Nadia Comeneci adult .. … how can we forget Nadia ! (Montreal 1976!!!)she is happily married and lives in America…..
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂..for her TIME..YES!! ..WAKE UP! THIS IS A NEW DAY! I bet if Someone was white you would be Swinging from the RAFTERS YELLING HOW Wonderful SHE IS!! CANT DEAL WITH THAT BLACK GIRL MAGIC HUH??? 🤸💥🤣😂🤣😂🇺🇸🤸💥🇺🇸😂🤣
Well considering she weighs looks like about 95 or 100 lbs, it’s not that much to balance. She has no muscle mass like the gymnasts of today nor is she as powerful. Actually, compared to the gymnasts today to me she’s kind of boring.
Nadia ALWAYS made her performance elegant, never perfunctory. Even at this tender age, she was graceful and eloquent. This is what gymnastics looks like… not blasting out a series of moves, no matter how well they are executed. I’ll never tire of watching Nadia ❤❤❤
Gymnastics was art back then. People think it was easier bc they made it beautiful and graceful. Nobody today could do that or is as fit as Nadia. She was like a ballerina with perfect technique working with much older equipment. I’m an 80s baby but I remember people talking all the time about Nadia back then. One of a kind.
The performances of today are so much more difficult, the judges just won't give anyone 10s now, but a lot have done greater acts than hers. She WAS the best, but they have elevated now.
@@debikala Yes, I agree with you. The Olympics have been around many times and it will continue to improve. But there is no argument, Nadia is an all-time great.
That’s debatable. Gymnastics today is far more hard than back then, hence why they could be stick thin and look “graceful”, because they didn’t have to do as much as today’s gymnasts. Gymnasts would eat Nadia alive in today’s world.
@@youreaqt3730 Back then it was about elegance and grace. Nowadays it's about power and strenth. I loved that way, but I like it today as well. It's not better, it's just differerent.
@@youreaqt3730 also scoring has changed. back then you could get a ten, a perfect score. now there is no such thing, if you manage to come up with a harder element, you will get a higher score
I was in Montreal in 1976 and watched Nadia get that first ever 10 in the sport and several more 10"s as the competition went on. In my opinion she is the best ever gymnast ....she just had something that the others didn't have. To see her make history was mind blowing. But on the other hand it was so sad and painful to watch Olga Korbut, the star of the "72 Olympics be over shadowed by Nadia and fall from grace. I really liked her too. Such is the way it goes. There will never be another Nadia.
I watched both Nadia and Olga Korbut (on tv!). Olga really took the world by storm in 1972. She had such an amazing smile and personality which was refreshing at a time when athletes behind the 'Iron Curtain' were considered to be dour and 'robotic'. But time marches on and Nadia deserved all her success. I'm not too interested in gymnastics now but I can remember so many names from that era. I really liked Ludmila Tourischeva.
@@ajd6627 I just saw your reply today. I also liked Ludmilla T. I agree with what you said about Olga Korbut....she was so cute with that big smile of hers. I don't watch gymnastics as much now either, but when I do I just don't enjoy it like I did in the 70's. It was more dance like, more beautiful where as T oday it's all about strength and muscles whereas back then it was more graceful and dance like. Times change.
There is something truly inspiring (and sometimes difficult to explain) about Nadia. I believe that Nadia and Olga Korbut were great inspirations for the following generations. And Nadia will always be Nadia. It's beautiful to see your performances.
The real GOAT. No disrespect. But today it’s just about power. So many gymnasts are like clones of each other. So many routines lacking originality. Nadia was light, nimble, effortless, playful. She always surprised and delighted. She was (as my physio would say) poetry in motion.
A goat???? You kids these days are so rude! She is beautiful, graceful, and strong! There is no need for insults here. It isn't even possible to insult someone who demonstrates absolute perfection.
Calling someone the GOAT stands for Greatest Of All Time. You might have heard Tom Brady referred to as the GOAT among football quarterbacks. So its actually a compliment.
She makes everything look so easy, even the landing. When I look at other gymnasts, I'm scared they would get hurt, but not with Nadia. She's effortless.
That's what I was thinking! It seems like when you other gymnast, like todays. You're waiting and worried if they're going to put it off! With Nadia, you feel relaxed and confident that she is safely going to pull it off!!!
The balance beam routines of today do look like the gymnasts were one step from disaster and you see their intense concentration and even fear, but Nadia did made it look effortless.
In the firmament of Olympic gymnastics a Beautiful star was born that will never lose its shine and will never be overshadowed by another. The conditions no longer exist. Forever Nadia ✨
This is my first time seen her, and she was amazing! So calm and the way that she moved from the uneven bars and the balance beam, I have never seen anything like that. She is flawless.❤
She was extremely serious, very precise , perfect balance , elegant, graceful, gracious and so confident that it was contagious to the public. You just knew she’s going to nail it every time perfect. This days champions they have like 50/50 to nail it or bounce like a ball landing. Nadia was like glued to that floor after each landing
Câta muncă, lacrimi, vointa, perseverență! Slavă Lui Dumnezeu și pentru timpurile pe care le-am trăit, crescând chiar într-o "epocă de aur"...care se pare că a dat lumii bune exemple. Mulțumim NADIA!.... Domnul să te aibe in pază, Nadia Comăneci!!
Chiar da...avea un corp superb armonios de aceea orice săritură era o adevărată artă. Acum aproape toate gimnastele au corp de halterofil....sunt mari nici nu ai spune că sunt gimnaste.
Nadia was a half-starved 13-y-o. Her body did not earn her those 10s. Her drive, willingness to work, innate athleticism, and deep love of the sport earned them.
It amazes me everytime that Nadia's performance still outrun most olympians today. Her executions was spot on without any extra bits. Clean and wow, full stop. Truly amazing athlete ever.
@@karrenolsen435Simone does not have the balance and smoothness that Nadia had. She is indeed one of the greatest. But I don't think she reaches this level of perfection
Our standards of perfection have changed so much. Now, it’s ok to have a high difficulty level and perform relatively well and get a great score vs. having a great, creative, challenging routine and perform it flawlessly. This is what Nadia did, and she is beyond comparison even now.
@@karrenolsen435 I have to disagree. Simone is all about big flips and fancy moves. Not graceful at all. She is a great athlete, but not the best artistically.
@@karrenolsen435 this girl achieved perfectness with bizarre gracefull moves, insane. At that time was breath taking. The problem is that Simone now got great oponents on competition, so it does not look as astonishing as before. World is more connected now.
I remember watching those Olympics and how much I thought she looked like a graceful little bird on the bars. In my mind, she will always be the greatest gymnist.
She dances her way to all her routines...She is insanely graceful.I always find myself mesmerized by her performance since I was just a newborn the time she got her perfect 10.
with a definate nod to Simone, Nadia, in my mind is one of the best gymnasts ever. The first with a perfect ten, then went on to six more at the same games. I was 12 watching my first olympics - poetry in motion!
This girl is doing moves on the UB they could never pull off today. She makes the BB look so easy. These are the Olympics I like to watch.. when the athletes weren’t being over paid and pampered.
I was about 6 at the time but remember this like it was yesterday. The entire world watched open mouthed. I cannot overstate what a big moment it was in world culture, internationally... this was like an OJ Ford bronco moment. Nadia's 1976 Oly perfection has not been approached since. As powerfully athletic as the current crop is, they are beefed up and large- goes against the aesthetic of gymnastics, which as any student of gymnastics history knows, is not about athleticism and strength as much as it is about grace flexibility and agility. Which requires a petite and light frame. And was the norm once. They do this in current women's diving too, vs the pre-2012 divers. The grace is removed, replaced with uber athleticism with a side of PED. Not the same. There is a reason this Montreal set is still regarded as the pinnacle of gymnastic achievement. Anywhere anytime. Nadia made the cover of time magazine that week. Those issues go for $500+ on eBay for a reason! Just say no to steroids, people!
You kids need to stop being rude! This is the fourth comment on the page that is calling her an animal! She is perfection of gymnastics, and you need to STOP BEING RUDE!
This is truly the art of gymnastics! Her movements were fast, gentle but firmly grounded. Nowadays, all gymnastics are too muscular. It makes their movements throughout the routines seem heavy and disconnected. Not smooth movements like the gymnastics in the past.
Even while watching our great gymnasts in 2024, I still always think of Nadia. I was glued to the screen watching her perfection. So beautiful. My favorite.
Where are the "great gymnasts of 2024"? It's been years since I've seen a decent gymnast. None of today's gymnasts could have even qualified under the high standards of the '70s, '80s, or '90s.
Nadia does everthing so effortlessly, her movements are so graceful and fluent, and she is a delight to watch...no one can do any better than her, she's difinitely the best I've ever seen.
That's rude. She is beautiful, graceful, and strong! There is no need for insults here. It isn't even possible to insult someone who demonstrates absolute perfection.

Simone Biles topped her performance and was just named the best gymnast, male or female, in the world ever!
@@karrenolsen435
I have to disagree. Simone is all about big flips and fancy moves. Not graceful at all.
She is a great athlete, but not the best artistically.
@@karrenolsen435 this girl achieved perfectness with bizarre gracefull moves, insane. At that time was breath taking. The problem is that Simone now got great oponents on competition, so it does not look as astonishing as before. World is more connected now.
Those perfect landings -- amazing.
unlike simon biles the hopper
I remember watching those Olympics and how much I thought she looked like a graceful little bird on the bars. In my mind, she will always be the greatest gymnist.
She dances her way to all her routines...She is insanely graceful.I always find myself mesmerized by her performance since I was just a newborn the time she got her perfect 10.
Still the most beautiful gymnastics I have ever seen!
Incredible grace and beauty along with perfection. Best ever gymnast.
👍👏👏👏👏🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🇷🇴🇷🇴❤❤🇮🇹🇮🇹👵🏻
There can never be another NADIA🎉🎉🎉🎉
She was incredible to say the least. I miss the grace she had, perfect execution, and beautiful stuck landings.
I remember watching her at the olympics in utter awe! Perfection.
I still cry watching this her 76 olympics performances
same here
with a definate nod to Simone, Nadia, in my mind is one of the best gymnasts ever. The first with a perfect ten, then went on to six more at the same games. I was 12 watching my first olympics - poetry in motion!
OLMYPIC LEGEND - greetings from the phillipines
Das ist auch 50 Jahre später noch unfassbar und unglaublich.❤
This girl is doing moves on the UB they could never pull off today. She makes the BB look so easy. These are the Olympics I like to watch.. when the athletes weren’t being over paid and pampered.
True!
The 2024 Olympic Games cannot compare.
A comic show for the media.
I remember watching her-being mesmerized by her grace and seamless movements…she is the 1st Olympian I remember following from her start to finish!
ESATTO!!! 👵🏻👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍🥇🇷🇴❤🇮🇹
Her grace is amazing.
Athleticism. Fluidity. Creativity. Effortlessness. 👏
The Queen of Gymnastics.
No one can come close to her skills. Gifted ❤ such grace and precision, bravo🎉
She can do no wrong the absolute excellent gymnast of all time ✅💯
She is the ace of gymnastics. Awesome!!
I was about 6 at the time but remember this like it was yesterday. The entire world watched open mouthed. I cannot overstate what a big moment it was in world culture, internationally... this was like an OJ Ford bronco moment.
Nadia's 1976 Oly perfection has not been approached since. As powerfully athletic as the current crop is, they are beefed up and large- goes against the aesthetic of gymnastics, which as any student of gymnastics history knows, is not about athleticism and strength as much as it is about grace flexibility and agility. Which requires a petite and light frame. And was the norm once. They do this in current women's diving too, vs the pre-2012 divers. The grace is removed, replaced with uber athleticism with a side of PED.
Not the same.
There is a reason this Montreal set is still regarded as the pinnacle of gymnastic achievement. Anywhere anytime.
Nadia made the cover of time magazine that week. Those issues go for $500+ on eBay for a reason!
Just say no to steroids, people!
GOAT! Never again to be equalled! Nadia reset the bar (no pun intended) and it has yet to be reached.
You kids need to stop being rude! This is the fourth comment on the page that is calling her an animal! She is perfection of gymnastics, and you need to STOP BEING RUDE!
This is truly the art of gymnastics!
Her movements were fast, gentle but firmly grounded. Nowadays, all gymnastics are too muscular. It makes their movements throughout the routines seem heavy and disconnected. Not smooth movements like the gymnastics in the past.
Even while watching our great gymnasts in 2024, I still always think of Nadia. I was glued to the screen watching her perfection. So beautiful. My favorite.
Where are the "great gymnasts of 2024"? It's been years since I've seen a decent gymnast. None of today's gymnasts could have even qualified under the high standards of the '70s, '80s, or '90s.
THE QUEEN!!🫅
Flawless, perfect smooth execution . You are the one Nadia!
The one and only!!!
Her movements were so fluid and quick...
And she stuck the landing every single time, took no steps.
"Nadie como Nadia", la más grande, la mejor por siempre...
Nadia does everthing so effortlessly, her movements are so graceful and fluent, and she is a delight to watch...no one can do any better than her, she's difinitely the best I've ever seen.
Nadia. The real GOAT
That's rude. She is beautiful, graceful, and strong! There is no need for insults here. It isn't even possible to insult someone who demonstrates absolute perfection.
I agree 100%.
@@WhatDoesMyChannelNameMean goat means greatest of all time!!!!!Best compliment I could give her
GOAT IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME
the GOAT of gymnastics!
For her time.
@@mindyschocolateFOR ALL TIME!
You kids in the comments need to stop being so rude! She is beautiful, graceful, and strong! There is no need for insults here. It isn't even possible to insult someone who demonstrates absolute perfection.
Simply the best of all times! Perfection, grace and beautiful line. Total confidence in herself.
Perfection has her name! 🇷🇴✨
The best gymnastic ever
She was so elegant and her lines were just perfect! I love watching her there will never be another one like her! Just beautiful!❤
Nadia is special, elegant, so beautiful, she has a unique aura, she is and always be the goat for me ❤
The best of Best all time ❤
