Soviet Legendary Legend Olga Korbut didn't have the difficulty level of some of the other gymnasts in the Floor Final at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, West Germany, but she more than made up for it in originality and charm. Her second pass landing on her stomach, a variation of her eponymous beam skill, was simply stunning. This routine won Olga her second consecutive gold medal 🥇 of the Games.

Scifactism on Instagram: "At the 1972 Olympics, 17 year old Olga Korbut performed a move that left the audience gasping: the Dead Loop a backward flip over the high bar, catching it again mid air. It was breathtaking but also so dangerous that gymnastics officials banned it forever afterward. The Dead Loop went down in history as one of the most spectacular and short lived moves ever performed."
