everything is great in the world when Shannon Miller is the commentator.

When Shannon's saying "look at that form 😍" about Vika's sheep jump in slow mo. I FEEL IT ❤️

At 44:53 you can see where at some point, one of the gymnasts drew a little happy face in chalk on the mat. That's such an endearing little reminder- these are strong, incredibly tough, seasoned they're still young girls. 🎀💖🖤

Maria Paseka was so cute when she had to touch the bars and salute :3

[ericyu]

Had Komova done that vault in the AA, she would be olympic champion.

[vlove]

The talent at these games was very, very special. Idk if any other olympics has been able to top it, honestly.

[brandozy]

I absolutely love the Russian style, so beautiful. I love that move Grishina does when she does a cool, elegant spin @ 14:33. It makes me smile :)

If you really are a "lover of gymnastics" you would know that Grishina had an excellent junior career and a rocky senior first year, but she's a fantastic gymnast who had a bad competition.

You guys should appreciate this video matter what these amazing athletes are trying to show the world what they can do and you should appreciate each one of them for their hard work and dedication

[kirstyevensen]

Love Shannon's commentary. ❤️ She is so positive and eloquent. xx

[tekkenfan]

It was great seeing all the gymnasts happy, smiling, waving and jumping. Russia especially. Much different from team final though. Only USA was happy, smiling and waving. Poor Yao Jinnan. She had a bad day here and didn't get to compete in AA final.

[prcelani]

Russian team was so sweet here, I adore those girls so much and miss these olympics!! I love Grishina sm the most.

[hOllyrObertson]

I WAS THERE omg front row! it was the best day ever, such incredible gymnastics!

[kaylajones]

Aliya's double arabian stag was explosive

[chrissyjoy]

Elisabeth Seitz does one of the best triple turns/spins on floor exercise that I've ever seen!! So controlled, so beautiful, completes it perfectly!

[kaylajones]

Watching this again for the feels. Rio is next week and so much has changed.

[kaylajones]

In my opinion, Aliya's still the queen.

[honeybunny]

aliya mustafina made the double arabian look so easy

[faeryquene]

Actually, Oksana was 38! Her birthday is on June 19. She turned 38 last year before the start of the Women's Gymnastics Team Qualifications at the Olympics on July 29, 2012. And yes, she is a total WOW! She competed at the 1992 Olympics, the same as the lady commentator here, the U.S.A.'s Shannon Miller. :)

[kayper]

And balanced. She doesn't feel the need to keep talkingtalkingtalkingtalking as though she had to fill every second with incessant chatter. She makes astute and brief comments as needed, just to let us know what happened here or there. It's like she just lets the audience sit back and enjoy the show. Very refreshing, really.
