I NEVER thought i'd say this: I am impressed by this rhythmic gymnast.

[Are_grits_groceries]

...smh...

[Xyzse]

1. Holy S...

Just that... Wow.

[Phentex]

2. She makes it look easy...

gymnastics, dance, ballet and a little globetrotter combined! Wow!

[Pisces]

3. Wow!! Best performance in this category!

[Occulus]

4. Wow.

[ZombieHorde]

5. She totally ripped off my morning exercise routine.

I do that 10 times every morning to stay in shape.

[Captain Stern]

9. Only ten times?

You must be just getting started.

I do it 50 times....while I'm eating a bowl of cereal.

[ZombieHorde]

10. Yeah. I've only been doing it for a week.

Took me three whole tries to do it as well as her. I'm such a klutz!

[Whisp]

6. Beautiful!

When my daughter was 8 or so she was involved in rhythmic gym - balls, hoops, ribbons and all that. It's lovely.

[ann---]

7. Wow! Just Wow!

[Captain Stern]

8. Ok, that was more than impressive.....

.....and I'm one of those people that never really thought of rhythmic gymnastics as "real" gymnastics.

11. Wow--I went to YouTube and read some comments--She took only SECOND place!

One commenter was from her country (Bulgaria) and said this was from 2008, and she took 2nd place in this event. So what more did the winner do--pass the ball back and forth through the dimension of time while she performed?

[Savannahmann]

13. LOL

Ok, that's funny.

[a la izquierda]

31. Hehehe...that made me chuckle. Nt

[snagglepuss]

34. LOL

[tridim]

12. Impressive, but still shouldn't be a judged sport IMO.

I was a competative gymnast as a kid so I got to watch these girls train all the time.

[KittyWampus]

16. ah, we could have a fun argument over that "it's a sport or not" thing.

But I"m not in the mood

[tridim]

24. I hear you. It's definitely an art, like all dance.

[yawnmaster]

14. Wow! I don't believe someone can do that with a bowling ball! eom

[KittyWampus]

15. it's as if a beautiful art deco statue from the 1920's came to life

17. Here's another performance by Boyanka Angelova

[Buzz Clik]

18. Circus Soleil wants their ball back.

[alfredo]

28. I bet most of their performers were gymnast at some point in their lives.

What gymnast do on their vacation

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

19. I understand the Cubs are looking at her for right field.

[JDPriestly]

20. Does she have magnets implanted into her body and the ball?

Amazing. How does she do that?

[progressoid]

21. With a bowling ball no less.

[Scuba]

26. Yeah, I found that the really amazing part!

[FSogol]

27. It isn't a bowling ball. She dribbles it and throws it higher than a bowling ball could be thrown.

They use a special rubber ball in rhythmic gymnastics.

[snagglepuss]

33. I am beyond awed. Unbelievable.

[kestrel91316]

35. I never thought of rhythmic gymnastics as REAL gymnastics - until now.

This is as good as any regular gymnastics floor exercise - different, but just as good.

Really amazing!!

I think most, if not all, gymnasts have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome to some extent. That flexibility is just abnormal, lol.

[TeamPooka]

36. holy wow. nt

[Demo_Chris]

37. amazing

[Triana]

38. Holy moly

That's some amazing perfection!
