Does anyone know when the video was filmed? It seems like it was when the world was in lockdown, I'm just wondering.

:wave:  ALL fanyus: I have just read a French article which recommends lowering the age of athletes in senior competitions by 17 years instead of 15 and speaks, of course, of the "Russian model and especially among girls and I I agree with that: they are too young and not mature enough to skate like a woman and B Joubert also speaks about this fact and tackles the case of the young A Trusova with her quads, but nothing artistic and This year's Olympic Games, she shares something else: she is more mature and especially the too early retirements of these young Russian girls and read carefully what Dr. A Pouillaude says and, at the end, the scoring system: delicate subject n 'is this not :disapproval:  and of course, you can say what you think, because I'm not "PRO" enough like some of you and, besides Yuzu who is getting stronger and stronger at 27

I have to confess before Beijing I was scared of Yuzu not winning gold. I was afraid that the general public might be fooled by the heavy promotions and narrations and that even Yuzuru’s legacy might be tarnished. I was afraid that locals and casuals might not appreciate Yuzu’s skating and performances and jump in the media’s fabricated bandwagon to appreciate the fake mediocre skating.

At the end, Yuzu didn’t get gold, not even bronze (burn in hell JSF) but everything went in the opposite direction of my pessimistic expectations. He was cherished more than ever, way more than the three supported medalists. He got a lot more famous, way more popular and many people resonated with his struggles and that “efforts are not always rewarded” quote. His personality, endurance, grace in the struggling time, sacrifices for his goal and putting an “honest” fight (which seems to be forgotten in FS by many) was truly the highlight of everything. The way he calmly accepted the unfortunate hole incident, injury, unfairly not medaling but yet keeping his pride and ideals, appearing in press conference giving iconic quotes and then not running away to home to hide and heal but performing his past programs with all his might to show that he is indeed the best he has ever been. Finally giving a very heart-touching performance in gala… The way he behaved in Beijing just showed why he is so deserving of the GOAT title. He is not just godly skilled but with a very wise head on his shoulders too. I follow sports as hobby for entertainment but few athletes like him appear to be role-models, teaching lessons.

Anyway, watching Beijing was a great life lesson to me. In our society that is actually very “result-driven”, sometimes, “unrewarded honest efforts” shine brighter than “easily obtained fake honor”.

 

\end of late night babbling lol sorry~~~~

Couldn't agree more. The fear of what was coming (because it was inevitable, given the development of the last years) was harder to bear for me than it actually happening. Still I wonder how Yuzu always knows what makes his fans happy again and is able to do or say just the right thing - on Beijing Practice Rink, in the press conference, in video messages with autograph ... Simply unbelievable.

I very much agree. And don't be sorry - we need to and we will repeat this many times in the future. Obviously, I wouldn't be here if not for Beijing. And at first it was just the effect of seeing him on the rink for the first time, like wh...WHAT??? What was THAT? WHO is this guy? But then there was everything else, the whole experience.

The pre-gala practice was hypnotizing and worked as a therapeutic session. For new fanyus it was also a kind of crash course in Yuzu's mastery and legacy - heartbreaking, cause you know you were not there all of this time, but at the same time the whole bunch of new and wonderful feelings getting into you. And then, I also realized he communicates like that. There is a powerful exchange going on here.
