Fadeev (Sergie's close friend) said in one interview: Sergie wanted to finish a sportsmen carrier. But Katia and Marina Zueva pressed him to continue earning money.

@@jobastana finally someone says this. In an interview after his death Katia admitted “I was a skater first then a woman then a mother” skating was more important than anything. In the last video of their performance to requiem, you can see how bad he looks, pale, out of breath and his face looks so thick and swollen. If we can see this through a phone screen, then surely she saw being with him all the time. She took a chance on him thinking nothing would happen and it backfired. Also in another interview Katia said she had a feeling of guilt before dasha and Sergei’s mum. She knew he was unwell but earning money was the most important thing. When Sergei was at home in Russia, his mother looked after him and watched his health remembering what happened to Sergei’s father but when they went back to America… And most of their time was spent in the states so Sergei’s mum could not monitor him. Sergei was also very homesick and wanted to live in Russia, not in the states but again… Katia pressed him to continue working and work was in the states

@@toxic-low-key-ghost7934 I keep seeing your toxic ass comments everywhere (really living up to your username lol). You keep speaking of Sergei like he was this meek, little sheep who couldn't stand up for himself and of Katia like she was just always using and manipulating him. Don't you see how disrespectful that is? We don't know what went through Sergei's head, but Katia said that he wanted to skate again in the 1998 Olympics to make up for the little mistakes he made in the long program in the 1994 Olympics (which makes sense since he was a perfectionist). He was working out up to three times a day in an attempt to strengthen his back and I'm sure he would have put his foot down if he was in so much pain that it was unbearable to continue skating. Sure Katia might have been pushing a bit, and Sergei would undoubtedly do anything to make her happy, but I don't think he would push himself way beyond his limits .Athletes tend to push through pain and no one knew just how serious his health problems were. His first, clear symptom was fatal. He was also a stoic and level-headed guy who wanted to support his family and make a great life for them all. You keep blaming Katia for what happened and it's not right!I What happened to him was was inevitable, and incredibly tragic and unfair. It's clear that since Sergei passed that it has been incredibly hard for her and she tried her best, but she's only human. She isn't perfect, but she's incredibly strong and doesn't deserve people making cruel assumptions about what happened and everything she has done since.

@@Stivag99 alexandrr fadeev said in an interview that Sergei wanted to quit sports but marina and Katia pushed him to continue Artur Dimitriev also said that at the Olympics, he saw Sergei very pale and struggling in trainings. Thank you for your lovely comment to me though, have a great day

@@toxic-low-key-ghost7934 What interview are you referring to? I’ve tried searching for it, but can’t seem to find it anywhere

The Hunchback program was one of my favorites as well.

Someone just uploaded the '98 Breaking the Ice special and the Hunchback program is on there. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gMqeedh7sLPHdYk.html

С ВАМИ СОГЛАСНА ПОЛНОСТЬЮ.

Why angel? People don't turn into angels when they die. They r either in hell or heaven depending on wether they were saved or not saved. Angels are lower in rank than humans bytheway. Only archangels are special, those that have special assignment in heaven. Michael is one of them. He is the top, and very near God. Ordnery angels in heaven are servants. They serve people in heaven. They guard us here 2, upon orders from God and Him solely 4 if u pray 2 angels u r sinning.

Look the answer I gave to @Adriana-vp1rm

@@Adriana-vp1rm I'm an atheist. So I dont't believe in god or gods or angels etc. I the same way I know that heart is just a muscle and every psychological process happens in our brain. But these are words that are in the common language, so I do use the word "heart" despite I know its real task, and I do use "angels" to describe G&G simply because I'm unable to find another word to describe them on and outside the rink. This is not a critic on your belief, only I try, maybe badly, to explain you why "angels" are used for them. If you find for me another word I will thank you and will start to use instead of it. Sincerely, without polemics, humbly, Carlo.
