Have watched the program 10 times over and am in awe of how easy he makes it all look!
Right?! I cannot stop watching it. He put me in literal tears.
discipline
Made this grown man cry watching this performance 😮
Each time I've watch this WR FS performance, my tears just start falling especially in the last 30 seconds.

@@Idontthinksobro toxic
lmao poosay
Me too.😢
the triple lutz-triple axel combo at the end was my favorite moment idk why
Because it was towards the end, and you could feel that the dream would be a reality?
@@brynneholt1990 maybe because i remember when the triple axel was the hardest thing in men's skating, and to see it tacked on the back end of a triple-triple combination at the end of a long program was very cool and emblematic of much skating has changed
@@alexdm4868 yessss that's me.. like tripple axel attached at the end of jump combo (and tripple lutz is hard too!). It's amazing! Incredible! I was speechless!
I love how he did it out of an Ina Bauer too, can’t say I’ve ever seen a triple lutz out of an Ian Bauer in all my years.
The era of "who has the least number of falls" in men's figure skating is history. We have entered the era of the impossible athletic feats.
He is going to be a force to be reckoned with at the next winter Olympics.
If he gets through the next two years without injury.
I hope GMA does an interview with Ilia and his parents who are his coaches. It's so amazing how they were able to accomplish this WR super inspired and breathtaking FS as a family. Totally agree! Ilia did a masterclass in technique and made it look effortless!! Sad that some fans are nitpicking about the edges, spins and speed. He's only 19yo so he'll just got better in everything in time because he's very driven on improving every aspect of his skating. He shoots for the stars. Keep up the good fight Ilia and God bless! Praying you're able to stay healthy, strong and humble. 😃🙏❤❤❤
People do your research before spouting nonsense. Ilia was born in Virginia to immigrant parents. He is not some expat stolen to compete for the US. He is as American as anyone
Big things in this guy’s future. Wishing him all the best
Illia Malinin must be a contender for ESPN's sports performance and athlete of the year. His performance has never been done in the history of the sport. Illia Malinin, in 4 minutes, revolutionized skating. ESPN is filled with a bunch of straight men who will look right past the sequins and give awards to athletes in football, basketball, and baseball. For ESPN to deny Illia Malinin recognition will be an affront to the sport of ice skating and demean the athletic genius it took to pull off this performance.
Absolutely! This performance will never be matched. As Tara Lipinsky said, “it’s untouchable”.
@@montanasuede Exactly. This was an Olympic Gold Medal performance. I'm crossing my fingers that Malinin didn't peak too early. He's got to hold on to his consistency for the next decade.
I love figure skating and have been watching the sport since I was a little girl and I never have seen anyone do what that young man did. He’s absolutely amazing!
He is beyond a doubt a Quad God! 🤴🏻🥇Such a golden performance of his lifetime. 🙏🏼 I am sure there will be more of this in the future but for now let’s enjoy and celebrate his golden moment. I couldn’t be more proud of him. Congratulations to Ilia and his family for a job very well done! 🔥🔥🔥🙌🏼👏🏼😍❤️
One of the most mesmerising spectacles I've ever seen. Pure brilliance, beyond human artistry, skill and perfectionism. I don't know much about skating (other than I loved Torville and Dean as a child) but wow, just WOW! The unimaginable hard work, determination and perseverance this must have taken is so inspirational.
Huge congratulations from England 🎉❤
So very talented and as cute as can be. When he laid down on the ice at the end, I literally had tears rolling down my cheeks, tears of joy and astonishment at what I was lucky enough to witness.
I watched it in loops as well as his performance at the gala. A truly brilliant artist, a complete athlete, an actor, a dancer, he has such charisma, crazy charm, something extra and he is made for jumps, going, flowing, flexibility, he is a virtuoso of highlights, fabulously beautiful and more. He has everything going for him. The varied figures and jumps follow one another like a river following its course. Fiery, passionate, gifted at improvisation and arrangements: he is unclassifiable, immeasurable. Super and superb! Interstellar electron defying the laws of gravity. Bravo to Ilia Malinin, so young! So much weight on the young shoulders of this star and icon of figure skating. Fortunately he is very well surrounded. Compliments of Switzerland
He was Proud to hold an American flag... so amazing
I hope USFS takes care of Ilia and markets him better because they clearly dropped the ball in the past when they marketed Nathan Chen to the public. They have another chance to grow figure skating in the US through Ilia. If figure skating gains more popularity, then Ilia and all the other American skaters would have so many opportunities with sponsorships/brand deals - and we all know figure skating is a crazy expensive sport, so these sponsorships and deals would help them tremendously. I want to see them in commercials, cereal boxes, magazines, Netflix specials.. etc.
Yep, they should learn from koreans and what they did with Cha Jun-hwan, boy is almost a k-pop star :)
Unfortunately they don’t have money, they can’t even keep videos of their skaters’ winning programs up online so fans can watch them. There’s no way to even rewatch any past events.
@@algimante2097the difference is US culture isn’t able to make someone into a “K-pop”-esque figure, Americans don’t care for that kind of thing in general.
@@kathhqq7i know right NBC literally deleted his performance off of YT which had like 4 mil views. I cant believe they delete all figure skating performances now it’s beyond disappointing. (ik it has to due with copyright but i swear it didn’t use to be like this)
Ilia Malinin is the son of Tatiana Malininia and Roman Skornyakov, two Russians.
Nathan Chen was the son of immigrants, too.
@@skatefan9495 I mentioned it, because Tatiana and Roman were also skaters on ice, and not because Ilia being a son of emigrants.
Russians are the best in figure skating and ballet.
@@plumeria66Russian men?
He may reach his potential at the Milan games in 2 years.
He's going to attempt a quint either at Worlds 2025 or Milan 2026. Assuming the ISU gives them point values, of course.
He is the most elegant beautyfull skater I hage EVER SEEN
Another Ilia champion. Ilia Kulik used to be my favorite and this one even looks a bit like him.
Rhapsody in Blue (in yellow)!
A great worlds! US also won Ice Dance and silver in ladies!!!
I’m also claiming half a gold and a silver from the American Canadians 😝
Lazy reporting in her introduction. Ilia, as awesome as he was, did not reach the "highest score in history". That record is still held by Nathan Chen at 335.30. Ilia achieved the highest score for a long program (227.79, not the total score. He also set the second highest total score at 333.76. Ilia will probably take the other records next season, but he hasn't yet.
Absolutely correct, but these guys on the tv panel know little about figure skating and not really interested in knowing more. What about all the other elements of his routine? Unless it "makes" a headline, they don't want to know.
SHE WAS referring to FREE SKATE hun... LMAO
"...the highest score in history during his free skate..." I think it was pretty clear what she was talking about.
She said, “highest score in history DURING HIS FREE SKATE.” She didn’t say highest overall score. Perhaps your listening was lazy.
@@bts_txt27jenn63 Listen to her introduction, doofus. I specifically mentioned her "introduction" in my first sentence where she states earning the "highest score in history DURING his freeskate". That's NOT the same as her phrasing at the end where she says at 1:36 "the score, the highest ever FOR a freeskate". There's a big difference there. A skater can certainly post the highest score ever for a competition "during" his freeskate, but that's different than scoring the highest ever for the freeskate alone. Her poor phrasing easily makes it appear Ilia earned the highest score ever during a historic freeskate, but that's NOT the case. He earned the highest FREESKATE score ever. That's how it should have been specified. Clearly, you're not a reporter or writer.
We are proud . Thank you ❤
Ilia is the son of Russian skaters, russian skating system trained boy. His grandfather still coaches in Russia
Exactly. And Ilia Malinin is the son of Tatiana Malininia and Roman Skornyakov.
Russia =doping
How is it even humanly possible ?
I had to watch the jumps in slow motion to truly appreciate them
Outstanding young man! Congratulations!
The quad axel is 4.5 rotations
Which makes it even more impressive!
Wow!! Most people including myself didn't know this. No one thought that anyone would be able to do a quad axel ever. I heard it was mathematically impossible.
@@Bellajane127 I learned that from watching videos on here 😁
I'm so happy for him!
Incredible Queen quad axle
Just happy that Russian people have great world scale talents to show the world. His parents are former athletes from USSR, not Uzbekistan.
CONGRATS 🎉
He is a great young man. Hope he can find love soon
ARGH! Tripple Lutz 6.0 - Tripple Axel 8.5 (2.5 points more) and then Quad Lutz 11.5 - Quad Axel 12.5 (only 1 point more) - how is that fair?!!?! It shoud give 15 points!!!!
I'm reminded of that Animatrix story about the world record athlete, shattering the Matrix with his reality-breaking performance.
Amazing, wish that my father was still alive to have seen this historic performance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Uzbekistan
So could a quint be in his future?
Hid Dad said he has been practicing that.
😯
Cool! @@hattiem.7966
Is it just me or does he look like cousins with Josh Hutcherson. 😅😂😂😂. Man is a real talent in ice scating. And hes got the looks as well. Talk about op. 🤩

extraordinary!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for American flag and representing ,you are 😍 so well ................proud,so proud like no expression ,...watched over and over ,love....... it take extreme discipline above imagination thank you and respect representing USA
BRAVO‼BRAVO‼
Ah, a Russian winning titles for the U.S. The irony!
With that logic Nathan Chen isn’t American, Michelle Kwan isn’t American, and Patrick Chan isn’t Canadian 🙄🙄
4.5 rotations.
He has perhaps the US passport, but he is… Russian, last name and first name. They didn’t call him John.
Nobody wants to hear about cheater Russians banned at all Olympics because of doping
Y'all are so salty 🧂🧂🧂
❤❤❤❤❤
It's 8 minutes, right?
The rest of the World in this Sport is asking each other, “What must we have to do to beat this USA skater??”
Train in Montreal Canada at Ice academy ofMontreal .. 11 out of the 20 finalists train in Montreal
Russian-American skater.
Looking forward to Peter Griffin family guy imitation or parody on this.. 😊❤
I've never seen such a salty comment section 😒🙄
Love it!
What and athlete!
He has it in the genes , pure Russian talent!
Axel is 4 and a half rotations get shit right if ur gonna report something so amazing.
Russian blood produces best skaters in the world!👍
Why weren't the Russian men winning more medals before they were banned?
Russians have proved they cheat with doping even at the last Olympics
Finally some attention to America's record-breaking athletes, instead of inane news pieces about who wore what to the Oscars and someone's dog that saved a duck.
This is so accurate lol
Russian-American athlete, trained by two Russians, lol. 😅
Another Russian expat, privatised by US. 😢
He was born in Virginia to immigrant parents. He is as American as anyone.
Russia have been banned from Olympics because of doping
@@geraldrevels6956When he breaks a world record, certainly, lol.
I realy want to see you how can you do thing amazing things ı just do double shalcow
Russians are so insanely talented in this skating
But ... what Brian Boitano do?
BB can still cook OK & is a genuinely charming man
Too bad they didn't mention the Olympics in Milan in 2 years.
For what? Let’s not do to him what was done to Nathan Chen leading up to 2018.
@@brynneholt1990Nathan chen no soy fan de él pero la tuvo más difícil no solo tenía una presión impresionante porque era joven y uno de los favoritos , si no porque competía en contra de yuzuru hanyu el mejor de todos los tiempos en el patinaje artístico, este niño ilia es muy talentoso pero honestamente no tiene competencia no hay muchos en el patinaje ahora de la calidad de chen y hanyu ,lo máximo sería shoma uno y ya es más grande de edad.
Nie zapominajcie, że Rosjan pozbawiono prawa do uczestnictwa w zawodach i niektórzy startują pod flagą różnych krajów. Podłymi decyzjami politycznymi doprowadzono do obecnej sytuacji. Taka właśnie jest ta amerykańska demokracja i prawa człowieka.
Good for him!!👍👍👍👍
Of Russian Blood lines!
With russian roots! Bravo America, going against Russia, but taking credit for everything
He is a born and raised first-generation American. His ascent has been more of a zig-zag than smooth. He has paid his dues. He does have the advantage of being raised with the unusual work ethic and mentality training more prevalent in foreign cultures. Nonetheless, there are hard working and lazy people in every culture.
You have amoeba-tier IQ
All I have to say is what the fuqqqq
Malinin Ylia , Russian !!!
Ohh he's 19 and not 15 yrs. Old. 😂 okay.
Sorry I cannot understand, why there is a need for crying. What you see is what the ISU wants. If you like that, enjoy it. Jumping, jumping, jumping....And all of you who are crying you are going to have a really good time with figure skating in the future. All the others who wants to see beauty, harmony, ballet, emotions...they should cry. You should have a big party. Do it!! This is your time... Enjoy it.
Russia ❤
He is American.
@@lenaa9057 Ilia's parents are both 100% Russian & both skated in previous Olympics for Russia. Ilia's auxiliary coach is the legendary Armenian coach Rafael Arutyunyan who has coached a long list of world champions including Nathan Chen, Mao Asada, etc etc etc . Ilia's grandfather still coaches skating in Russia.
Impressive performance he might live in the US and be an American Citizenship but as soon as I read his last name I knew he has the Slavic blood in his veins , no pure American 😊
Russian roots
Here in America we don't distinguish between the pure and impure. Everyone with citizenship is a full American.
What does that even mean?
LMAO the only pure americans are native americans, we are literally a mixing pot of all people around the entire world
@@maytc2011 Citizenship can be changed, but blood cannot be replaced.
Now ilia is campion, but he is not the skatter compared to YH
We miss yuzu on ice
In case you were too delu ded and socially inept to notice, Hanyu isn’t mainstream in the West whatsoever, figure skating in general isn’t, so most people really don’t give 2 shits about his show at all LOL. Since most of his fans are social reject femcels they’re deluded enough to believe he’s uber famous outside of Japan. Y’all actually believe people here would find a no-chin like him attractive at all LOL go outside and touch some grass most people here are actually normal and don’t have weeaboo yellow fever like them creepy F*nyus
i wanna root for him but he doesn't seem to be a good person unlike the previous record holders like yuzuru or chen
This is hilarious. Imagine being so stupid you think you can tell or even give af about how “good” of a person someone is in a competitive sport. You sound like someone who spends way too much time on Twitter and don’t know how the real world works. Like those K-Poopies who wish death on people and call them racist because they don’t care for their untalented (fem)boy groups.
Tell us all why he dosen’t seem to be a “good person!” We’re all agog waiting for your expert opinion.
@@gailwebb9619 read the articles and how he interacts with people
@@aihngelleyou mean how he made a stupid joke about PCS? Typical teenager comment that honestly is pretty tame compared to the norm. What he said was stupid but not egregiously bad. He deserved a slap on the wrist for that. Twitter types just don’t like him because he’s a mildly cocky white kid and they’re getting PTSD from sitting by themselves at lunch in high school.
He makes it look so EFFORTLESS. Like he accidently just made SOME jumps. He is OUTERWORLDLY GOOD. ONLY 19 years Old 🫶🏻🫶🏼🫶🏻🫶🏼💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🥰🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
Why does he have Russian names?
