Alexei Nemov 2004 Athens Olympics High Bar Routine

Alexei Nemov has got to be one of the prodigies / geniuses of the gymnastics arena.

In this highly controversial high bar finals during the 2004 Athens Olympics, Alexei Nemov does a superb routine that not only the commentators know is incredible, but the roar of the crowd signals a guaranteed nod of approval.



But somehow, the judges ranked him a meagre 3rd, and the crowd shows no hesitation to let the judges know that they disapprove.

Nemov should have won the gold medal, despite the 1 foot misplacement during the landing.
