Olga Korbut's "dead cycle" performance, banned in 1972.

Johanna Quaas the oldest active gymnast in the world still going in her 90s

Incredible display of gymnastics, but it was banned because of its riskiness. It really showed her daring spirit

It made her world the most famous gymnastics ever after. Her name and this video will remain centuries.

This was my first time seeing the Olympics on TV... And she didn't get a 10 for that performance???

Wow she’s still better than todays gymnasts

I keep seeing this clip. What part of the routine is the “dead cycle” and why is it more dangerous than the rest of the routine?

Haters couldn't copy it, so they banned it

This element was banned due to the danger to the athlete's health since he hits his stomach against the bar. The 14-year-old girl herself was very afraid to perform it but she was forced to do it. It can be googled in 3 minutes

Which exactly of the 100 amazing moves is the “dead cycle”? 😳😳

Incredible display of gymnastics, but it was banned because of its riskiness. It really showed her daring spirit
