God bless you Deb.

А кто это Дэбби?!

we are not "locked up" in the GDR. and Kati could and did travel anywhere she wanted. but she was always patriotic and loyal to the socialist fatherland. for the so called "western freedom". its just bullshit. we (as a whole society) were much more free in the GDR than since 1990. with capitalism takes over 95 of all factories got forc3fully closed. we had unemployment rates of 70% in some regions and overall 45%. 4 million young people are leaving the country because of sudden poverty. eastern Germany is today poorer than ever before. the birth-rate is the lowest in the world. millions of my fellow countrymen in east and west are sad that wall came down. Greetings from East-Germany.

Was für ein Quatsch Du hier schreibst! Ich komme auch aus der DDR und kann sagen, das nichts von dem, was du hier zum besten gibts, auch nur annähernd stimmt!

What a bullshit! I’m from the GDR as well and your comment is completely nonsense!

Ignore the communists. Almost all East Germans are happy the wall came down and the region is economically much better now.

@@CarstenOepping you sound like some communist pig! Pretty much everybody in the GDR was locked up, and couldnt freely travel and leave the country. Maybe to Hungary or Russia, if they behaved. But certainly not to the west. The GDR was a totalitarian criminal system!

Super, wenn man einer Diktatur hinterher trauert, die viele hundert Menschen erschossen hat, die einfach nur woanders leben wollten, die ihre eigenen Menschen bespitzelt hat, Regimekritiker in Zuchthäuser gesperrt und gefoltert hat (kannst du jetzt noch in Berlin besichtigen), für hunderte Zwangsadoptionen verantwortlich ist und staatliches Doping durchgeführt hat. Großartig, wenn man sowas toll findet…

Lol

Dude the East German anthem is better then west German anthem

You do not hear it because the GDR is not here anymore.

4th place for Manley in the short was right. However with Witt being 2nd in the short which was also right, had Manley won both the figures and long she would have won. And all that saw the figures here say it was ridiculous Witt passed her from behind on the loop (her worst figure) to win figures, and Manley deserved to win the long over Witt too even though neither had a great skate. I actually think she has a better case of being robbed of the gold here than in Calgary, despite that she skated better in Calgary.

You know...Tradition is the Champion "reaches" down to the other medalists...acknowledging the other athletes.

Nadia Rodriguez I just read this comment a year later but it's still terrible to spread such lies. Debi Thomas was married March 15, 1988 and the Olympics were held February 13 and 28, 1988. There is no way they would have congratulated her for getting married.

Gertie Shaw - Wrong!! This was not the 1988 Calgary Olympics. This was the 1988 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary. Debi Thomas did get married between those two events. By all accounts, the conversation among the women on the panel centered around that.

Yes. The medal ceremony from the European championships this year was similarly interesting in that when Ivanova and Kondrashova reached across in front of Witt to congratulate each other they knocked her off the top of the podium 😂

@@MrOu83 Olympics 1988

@@MrOu83 you’re right! Liz Manley wrote about this in her autobiography, “Thumbs Up!”

Witt is an obvious closet lesbian so she will probably always be single and free.

gary jones - I suspect she is a lesbian as well. To be clear, that is not a bad thing.

gary jones, Maybe she doesn't like men or women.

roger leblond - I also believe Katarina is a lipstick lesbian.

She’s definitely NOT a lesbian. She’s had quite a few high profile relationships - with men

Ya_Boi_Jibanyan XX I was no fan of Katarina or the GDR (had nothing against the country, though), I loved the anthem.

Pascoe Braun - Debi should have done Carmen. Had she executed it as least as well as she did at the U.S. Nationals, she would have won gold at both the Olympics and the Worlds. Katarina did a whole lot of nothing. Flirting and posing for long periods of time.

MrOu83 and landed the jumps and skated cleanly 🤔

These women would not stand a chance against the Russians, Japanese, or South Korean women of today

@@cashed-out2192 this was 30 years ago. It’s like comparing the women who won in the 50s and 60s (like Peggy Fleming) to this. It’s what happens 🤷🏽‍♀️ it doesn’t make the achievements at the time any less groundbreaking

@@victoriagill3337 Well, these Koreans, Japanese. Russians, and Canadian women for his sport, all stand a chance. All the American women should stay home. Even the German women, since Kat Witt, are not even good anymore, either.

Getting rid of school figures was a mistake. Turning the sport into a jumping contest has stripped it of everything that made it watchable. My mother and I watched many skating programs in the 90s (was a big Kristi fan). I know times have changed, but Id argue it's not for the better...

Yet Thomas is brilliant and is now an orthopedic surgeon. Witt has big boobs that she showed in Playboy.

This is not about mental brilliance... it's about skating competition.. orthopedic brilliance doesn;t give person necessarily a lot of warmth or other abilities... so lets stick to skating ....

***** For me mental brilliance is a part of skating, for you its not. No biggie. Its all subjective anyway.

baritonebynight For me it is the most important part, especially emotions, I saw a lot more mental, emotional envolvement in Katarina's skating than in cold, lifeless, emotionless skating of Thomas... besides, orthopedics don't require a mental genius. She is not a brain surgeon... which wouldn't;t make her a better skater than Katarina anyway and Katarina has more class, Thomas is just a sore loser with a temper......

***** You confuse fact and opinion and you sound pretty ignorant about the medical field.

Tolle Frauen.....alle.....

Hope you didn't choke too badly. Yeesh. Perhaps because it was a BIG event and something students can aspire to!

@@Person-mh6xq What did you care about when you were 14 ?

+GIOJL At the Olympics, during the awards ceremony, Witt reached over to Thomas, & Thomas just kind of slapped/tapped her on the thigh, no eye contact.

im sure she did lose gracefully

Exactly. Surya messed up some of her strength (jumps) in the long program while Yuka did all her jumps cleanly. Making the whining Surya should have won even more ridiculous. She was way overscored if anything.

@@marynell5666 Great comment!!!You're right👍👍👍Glad you mentioned Epke💪💪💪❤❤❤!!!I'm his huge fan!For me he is the most amazing gymnast of all times🥇🥇🥇

CIXI there was just too much pressure on poor Debi

Nope. It says "A rare and never seen before sweet moment between Witt and Thomas on the podium "

@@mattg.812 3:36

That was not Jill. That was Liz Manley. Katarina was holding flowers in her other hand.

शी सिक्स

braininahat, Are you from Canada?

No Debi should have won the Gold, she was 1st going into the long program and Katarina missed a triple so the door was open for Debi. Debi could have skated all of her jumps, as she said, "In her sleep," but it was being psychologically passive that did her in. She was capable and physically able to complete a perfect program but her own mind sabotaged her.

@@conniebarnes9274 I am from Canada and sorry Elizabeth Manley did more jump but if you compare the spin,the choreography and the interpretation of Katarina Witt she was to good.Manley chose to skate to so many different music in one program it was not a good choice.Katarina had very good technique i saw her fall once in all her career live in Montreal on a triple toe loop and she was mad and she felt getting out the ice.

@@conniebarnes9274 I am not, and i think she skated superbly

@@martinlalonde979 I liked her music though it was a great choice love her intersecting spears eagles
