Nadia Elena Comaneci

In 1976, the Montreal Olympic Games was the moment she made history when she became the first to achieve a perfect 10, in bars that were symmetrical. Then she scored an additional six perfect 10s, making her the most youthful Olympic all-around gold medalist, at just 14 years old. Nadia Comaneci has not only attracted attention from all angles however she also assisted Romania in gaining a place on the map of international recognition. Her achievement of a score that was unattainable was what made the sports legend famous and brought gymnastics to the forefront of the entire world. It also changed people's perception about female athletes. The impact of her performance in the Olympics is so significant that her toe step (release) and the toe step were both named after her on the uneven bars event. In addition to the Olympics the gymnast showed remarkable results at her participation in the World Championships and European Championships as well, thus becoming a living legend and one of the most well-known gymnasts the world could ever achieve. Following her move to the US the "Queen Of Olympics began modeling as well as promoting the use of sports equipment. Nadia Nadia Nadia Nadia 2 Nadia
