A montage about the sad stories in gymnastics. I cannot even imagine the pain of training your whole life for a dream then having it taken away. Footage includes Julissa Gomez, Christy Henrich and Yelena Mukhina, whose stories are perhaps the greatest examples of tragedy in gymnastics. Also included is Sang Lan, who is a very inspiring amd courageous woman. She has managed to keep a positive outlook on life and do many great things. She hopes to be one of the final torchbearers at next year's Beijing Olympic Games. The other gymnasts I chose becasue they were perhaps the best examples of gymnasts forced to retire in their prime, or before their career even really began. I also included those who never lived up to expectations, those supposed to be the next big thing who were then forced to watch their dreams slip away in the spotlight. REST IN PEACE: Julissa Gomez Christy Henrich Yelena Mukhina Alexandra Huci The song is 'Bittersweet Symphony' by the Verve.
