Fantastic. Now American and Australian parents get your fat over indulging kids away from the computers and nintendos, back to playing in the yard and maybe we can reduce the diabeties and cancer rate amongst young adults.
Obviously you do not watch gymnastics... the USA ladies team won the silver at the last Olympics and we have thousands of girls enrolled in gymnastics. And by the way, fat people have 40 percent LESS cancer (ref: Gaesser, CA 2002) and diabetes is a GENE so that means slim folks get it too. Maybe it's YOU who needs to stop "learning" from the TV ads for diets!
oh and by the way, having that low a bodyfat percentage makes young people candidates for osteoporosis and other ailments. Some of our elite gymnasts were said to have the bones of a 70 year old person. Time to take your own advice and remove your ___ butt from the computer AND the TV! :)

amazing is right. and spellbinding.
the women were more agile, i think.
the cruel truth is, these beautifully skilled athletes pay a high price, just as ballet dancers do. they are trashing their joints.
ah so.
this is sure amazing! the only thing that rivals it is similar skills by the Chinese. on a show from them last year on news, this young Chinese girl was spining on the tip of one foot, ballet style, over the head of a young Chinese man! they too have been very good at this kind of physical abilities since ancient times. their smaller body size also is an advantage.
a message to "dbaseii" ... so what are you saying...that we should all be a little fatter because our chances of cancer are lowered??? i mean, come on...overall, it is healthier for EVERYONE to be of a healthy weight. this can help all aspects of our health. as for cancer, diabetes, and any other ailments, none of us are immune, but we can all do our part to eat healthier and exercise regularly (and i don't mean balancing your kid on the bottom of your foot!). as for these girls who have the bones of a 70 year old because their body fat is SO LOW....they are young children and their parents have allowed them to participate in this sport. it shouldn't come as a surprise to their ADULT parents of what it will take to be a gymnast (right or wrong)... have you ever seen a 130, 140, 150 pound gymnast ? no i don't think so. maybe YOU SHOULD TAKE YOUR FAT *
Human body
Those incredible athletes have them all; strength, speed, nimbleness, balance, and they demonstrate it brilliantly in the most artistic manner.
They really show what they can do, not what there equipment or toys can do.
The most amazing machine of all; the human body.
