You know what we saw in the thumbnail.
What's the background music?
I’m sorry but the thumbnail….
so she couldn't recover … sad 😭😭
I always wondered what happened to this child. I am glad that she stayed positive. Her family is wonderful!
I thought those legs were something else 😂
Looks like she’s really moving on after that backbend incident.
wait- shes only 14 years old?!?!
I'm always humbled by stories like this. I don't know if I could be that determined when facing a life changing challenge.
I remember her
The thumbnail for this video is crazy lmao 🤣
So kids shouldn’t be doing gymnasts
I clicked cause I thought I saw something 😂
Glad I'm not the only one who got caught up in the thumbnail
Wow. Okay. Love. Amen
Her spine wasn’t strong enough to do that which is weird.
I have a dirty mind.. sorry
I'm here because of the thumbnail
5 year old? She does not like 5
OK, this could be a little weird, but am I the only one who thought she looked like she was at least 19 or 20? I swear older people from older generations look younger, and younger people from our current generation look older. Is it just me? Or am I taking crazy pills?
I think every kid doing gymnastics should be shown this video.
