Some random crazy videos…thanks [wtfgymnasticsvideos](http://www.youtube.com/user/wtfgymnasticsvideos) (we’ll pretend we don’t know what wtf stands for…)

 

This youtube user has lots of great gymnastics clips, ranging from super cool skills to super scary crashes.  I’ll post just a few of my favorites (among the more tasteful ones) here:

 

**Tatiana Gutsu Uneven Bars**

 

   
 Not sure when this video was taken, but crazy to see the 1992 Olympic All-Around Champion doing something unique we’ve never seen before…quite a cool way to get from the low bar to the high bar!

 

 

**Sergei Kharkov High Bar**

** **

Incredible!  The only gymnast I’ve ever seen connect a Covacs to a Tcatchev, and he gets enough turnover to connect more releases out of it – fantastic!!!

**Natalia Kalinina Balance Beam**

** **

The next time you start to get mad at your Level 5 gymnast for doing something so silly, go back and watch this video of Soviet world team member and Goodwill Games all-around champion Natalia Kalinina. Can’t even imagine what her coach had to say after that one…

**Latvian gymnast High Bar**

Awesome stuff!!  Never seen a gymnast do a Gienger out of German giants – super cool!

**Melinda Baimbridge Balance Beam**

Melinda Baimbridge was a super talent who kind of just disappeared. Never, ever seen this sequence done before by any gymnast.  Not sure if she ever competed this again, but what a brilliant and gutsy sequence!
