    I am the same… when I was a kid, I remember watching Shannon (all summer my friend and I were doing somersaults in the backyard pretending to be Shannon). When I grew up, Shawn’s beam routine in 2008 was another I always remembered. Don’t remember a lot of gymnast (because I only watched every four years) but those two names were ingrained in my memory and I watched the whole video just to see them specifically.

    Quite unbelievable that nobody managed to win two gold medals on beam. And your compilation videos always intrigue me to delve deeper into the evolution of photography technology - especially the floaty motions through the lenses of early 2000s.

    This list includes gymnasts who placed in the Top 8, so someone like Pavlova who had 2 4th place finishes but no individual medal finished higher than gymnasts with a single Bronze or Silver medal.

    I am at gymnastic efficient Edo and I can’t believe that she got a bronze medal by falling off the beam or holding onto the beam with her front. Flip, I mean shouldn’t have gotten the bronze. I don’t care how many points she has or what the difficulty is if you fall off the beam, you should not be able to getting metal at the Olympics

    In 2016 it was a 0.5 point deduction only (now it’s 1 point), she used to score 15.6+ with her beam, while the rest would score a 15(If we exclude the top 2) at their very best, but they also didn’t perform 100%.
