So talented. Why'd they ban it?
Nope I'm wrong. It was the part where she stands on the high bar. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2022/01/16/olga-korbut-dead-loop/
I haven't researched why yet but watching it I'm sure it could cause catastrophic injury to practice. No hands, neck hits bar, ouch.
That's different from just about any other Olympics level routine how?
I followed up, the standing on the top bar was what they deemed too dangerous.
Mentally ill men can now compete as women.
It's not banned, it's just that the uneven bars are much further apart today (to account for giant swings that go around the high bar), it's impossible to do the whip around the low bar on the current uneven bars. There's far more dangerous shit they do than this these days.
Only women could come close to doing it, like even slightly close.
