Chiba-Makuhari, JAPAN - 1994 World Figure Skating Championships, Ladies' Free Skate - Medal Awards Ceremony where Yuka Sato of Japan won the Gold Medal, while Surya Bonaly of France won the Silver, and Tanja Szewczenko of Germany won the Bronze. Bonaly would protest her Silver Medal here by refusing to accept the Silver Medal.
1994 was definitely a bizarre year for figure skating, but it also put the sport on the map.
We stand with you Bonaly ....still 2024
2023...and forever Surya..love forever
She was robbed in 93 folks labeling someone they don't even know calling her an ungrateful brat in which she put in long hours to be great, she deserved the gold in 93 and the gold after, i respect her stance, the same thing was done to Simone Biles for being too dominant with moves others couldn't do its not racism its bigotry that denied her
The best Surya❤❤❤
Bless Yuka’s kindness. She was looking at Surya with so much compassion.
she was-- definitely shared the same take-away from this. She seems sweet and classy. I loved that.
Unsportsmanlike on Suria bonale's part
Thank you I agree with you Yuka was certainly a very sweet, classy young lady
ARE YOU HIGH, OR JUST HIGH ON WHITE PRIVILEGE!??
Cause she knew her azz shouldn't have been #1
Surya forever the queen from the ice
Even the announcers are shocked she didn't win
You the best Bonaly❤❤❤
Surya deserved first
Omg I remember this. I didn’t always watch the Olympics but would sometimes watch figure skating as it was my favorite. I was 16 (45 now) and my memory is vague, but I remember Surya being so emotional.
Una valiente Bonali ❤
Yes, we can say that Surya Bonaly was unfairly deprived of the title of world champion.
Si fuera racismo no le hubiese ganado a una alemana rubia de ojos celestes... Recuerden que es campeona europea
Go watch both competition's video then you can tell us if it was racism? Yuka delivered smooth, clean without mistakes that was the reason her score were a little above Surya.
She protested that what she did and people have the right I would have tossed it at the judges.
suryaBonaly do have better sense than that.
She is my hero! She shouldn’t have had to take it if she didn’t want it. They should have made an excuse so she didn’t have to go out at all. They set her up to be the bad guy.
*Heroine* , not "hero." And I agree; they only gave the gold to the Japanese girl so as not to anger the hometown crowd!
Surya is the Real Queen
Looking at both skaters routines I don’t know how anyone could think Surya won the gold. 🏅
Thanks for uploading.
Reporters need to learn to give people 3ft of space- my reflexes wouldn’t have allowed for that man to get in my face like that. She was obviously upset & so young too
Well Surya, 🤲 its 2022, and GOD is STILL delivering you from the PAINFUL journey you suffered from the 1994 ceremony. God bless you.❤🥇❤🥇❤🥇❤🥇❤🥇❤
Painful for those of us who had to watch her horrible stylefree skating
all the way to the bank. She's fine.
Amo a las personas que tienen espíritu rebelde. Grande Surya❤
Everyone’s saying how bad of sportsmanship Surya had, and I don’t necessarily agree with her actions either, but at least she didn’t act the way Nancy Kerrigan did to Oksana. Surya was at least polite to Yuka, whereas Nancy bitched about Oksana crying off her makeup and winning gold over her
agreed. You have to remember that Surya was robbed of gold the prev year in 1993 so for her to perceive it happening again (even though I agree with the result, esp with the errors she had in her skate) you can understand her perspective
@@StewNWT I agree, Oksana was lovely in 1993, but yes Surya should've won
Nancy’s behavior was bad. She always looked like she smelled something bad.
Well, she made the crowd boo at the same time Tanja was getting her medal put on her. She should have waited for Tanja to finish receiving her medal. Instead, she got boos, too.
True Kerrigan was a terrible sport. However I don’t think anyone has ever done anything this bad. She wasn’t even that good of a skater. I didn’t think so then and I don’t think so now. She lurched around like Frankenstein.
The way he manhandled her. Truly disgusting. Never tough a person like that.
Sato was the rightful winner.
No, she was not (Finish judge was blind). One day wonder against 5 time European champion, you can see the difference.
I remember watching this as a kid. Surya Bonaly is my spirit animal.
The reference to her mother was due to Suzannes’s very bad reputation for tricks and poor sportsmanship. She fired Surya’s coach appointed herself coach and would tell Surya to throw in backflips during the warm up against other skaters, one time almost making Midori Ito crash.Suzanne was a sick and abusive woman who adopted Surya and enslaved her for her natural athletic talent to gain fame and money. Luckily Surya became an adult and emancipated herself from this sick demented Racist woman and moved across the world to Las Vegas. Surya fell in love and is married and coaching kids now happy and free.
Holy Shi! I didn’t know any of that about her “mother”. I just always loved Surya when I was young 😳
Finally, I get some confirmation on Suzanne. I never could stand her and tended to blame her for what happened to Surya. What a monster… if all this is true.
Adorei conhecer a história dessa heroína 😢 gostaria muito de saber mais sobre ela mais nao encontro em português!
She is the First !!!!! She is the Queen
It isn t sport. !!!!! It s politic ice.. Hhhhhhh 😊😊😊 Sorya merit my hard forever... ❤️❤️❤️🏅💐
By the way judges scored she won. What she did was necessary. She won gold they just refused her.
Incorrect. Stop spreading misinformation and get your facts straight.
Bonaly did what she had to do. I am very disappointed in the judges decesion. In 1999 II competed in The Mr. Dixieland America Contest, I was The Reigning MR. EBOBY TN, MR.EBONY NASHVILLE, and MR.MARDI GRA TN, I won every category at THE MR. DIXIELAND AMERICA COMPETITION except one and I only lost that category by 2 pointd and I ended up with First Runner up and I WALKED OFF THE STAGE AND DID NOT STAY FOR THE REST OF THE CEREMONIES. And went on to win MR. EBONY USA 2000.
The national anthem of Japan sounds like the soundtrack to Lord of the Rings
one of the kind
This was quite a show the first time I realized drama can happen anywhere I was only a kid watching this with my mother, after realizing the fights that go on in hockey, the scandals in public, I realized anything can happen anywhere no matter what, the Nancy thing was too much I was like what happened to her and the fact that surya took off the medal I was like oh she’s not happy I was like what is going on this doesn’t feel like the Olympics
Racism, Surya Bonaly 🇲🇫 first in our earth
It is TOUGH! Where is the Nancy Kerrigan slayers? None of us know how we would handle it, unless we are there.
Sad that Yuka retired after this, I wanted her to hold on till Nagano 98, it was in her home country after all
Ce qui est parfois dure dans la vie c'est de reconnaître ou ne pas reconnaître d'être légitime ou ne pas être légitime pour occuper une certaine place, quelle soit bonne ou mauvaise. Le patinage n'est pas évaluer de la manière du judo ou du tennis, c'est un verdict peu objectif voire biaisé. Si j'aurai été Yuka Sato je ne me serai pas senti à ma place, j'imagine qu'elle-même a dû être surprise du verdict. Je ne me serai pas senti honnête envers moi-même en acceptant ce titre. Yuka Sato aurait dû offrir sa médaille d'or à Surya Bonaly et l'invité à occuper la première place sur le podium. En agissant ainsi elle aurait largement mérité son titre et aurait réellement été considéré comme la gagnante légitime mais à l'inverse en acceptant ce titre et cette médaille elle a valider la malhonnêteté du jury et à laisser dans l'esprit du publique non pas l'image d'une gagnante mais malheureusement l'image de celle qui n'aurait pas dû gagner.
SATO est merveilleuse:
lol the questions the reporters asked were very inflammatory to piss surya even more
I disagree strongly - I am no fan of Brian Williams as he grandstands a lot when he is Olympics anchor but in this case he and all the reports were actually pretty respectful - they asked simple, direct, non loaded questions and they were exactly what everyone was thinking. They gave her a chance to explain in her own words. But you can also understand Surya's side - her English at the time was not great, but also she would have very conflicting emotions and be flustered in saying basically that she wanted to stand up for herself as she didn't feel anyone else was going to but at the same time didn't want to get in trouble for saying the judges were wrong. I feel for her
Never seen that before
Someone please explain to me how the scoring works. What they showed was Sato (13 points), and Bonaly (15 points)…. Are these points for or against them? 3:40
Those aren't "points," but rather *ordinals* . Namely, 5 of the 9 judges ranked Sato as *premier* , and the remaining 4 as *second* . Whereas 4 judges ranked Bonaly as 1er and another 4 as 2nd. The Finnish judge ranked Bonaly as *3rd* . (Makes me wonder what competition *he* was watching! 😝)
Thank you for explaining this :)@@grantorino2325
You need a low ordinal to have a higher placement. Think of them of like “1st place” marks, Surya had 4 “1st place” marks while Yuka had 5.
Это же не очки, а место, на которое ставит судья спортсмена. Большинство судей на второе место поставили Бонали, а кто-то и на третье. Тогда была очень предвзятая система судейства. Хотя сейчас и лучше, но все равно бывает несправедливость…
Everbody has own protest right. It is normal.
I feel bad for Surya but she was a very sore loser. It was cruel that her back flip was not given the praise she deserved and I love to watch her skate but Yuka Sato was a precious and very humble winner. Surya is one of my favorite figure skaters.
The way the reporter grabbed Sonya's arm was unbelievable.
I didn’t watch this program but I can’t give an opinion however something must have gone wrong with Surya because she’s never acted like this. Btw. I don’t think racism played a part here but I do believe it does exist in figure skating. Just because there are other women of color participating in it doesn’t mean racism doesn’t exist. There are very little black figure skaters here. As for Yuka Sato she probably deserved to win. She and Surya are great skaters.
"Я ненавижу этот спорт! Я не пойду на награждение, не хочу, не пойду! Я никогда больше не выйду на лед! У всех есть золотая медаль, а у меня нет"
Sato deseve the first place
I do really love Surya but I don't really like her reaction, being in the second place was more than good
Instead of being angry that her long awaited special moment was ruined by Surya's selfishness, Uka sweetly looked over at her with compassion. She's a double inner...all class!
Most of the Japanese skaters I saw were all really sweet. I don't mean it in a racist way, but I feel like the Japanese are very well taught in manners and to have compassion for everyone
@@mht4908 I’d say it’s more of a cultural practice. I don’t think it sounds racist at all, though. There’s a reason why they have garnered such a reputation over the years. It’s kinda like how everyone thinks Canadiens are so friendly. Well, it’s because they are, haha! No one thinks that’s racist, right?
IF YOU'RE BLINDED BY RACISM, CRAZY SUPREMACIST VIEWS, AND ABSOLUTE IGNORANCE ABOUT THE SPORT.... THEN PLEASE, GO JUMP OFF THE PLANET NOW!!! WE DON'T NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU AROUND, YOU KILLED AND CONTINUE TO KILL ... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
@@smoothALOE ARE YOU HIGH, OR JUST HIGH ON BLIND RACIST VIEWS!??? EVERYONE KNOWS HOW VIOLENTLY RACIST CANADIANS CAN BE. ESPECIALLY COPS TOWARDS MINORITIES OR THE NATIVES... JEEZ, GROW A PAIR, OPEN YOUR EYES AND LOOK AT YOURSELF BEFORE COMMENTING ON THE WORLD.
@@mht4908 SURE, ALONG WITH CRAZY RACISM, EXTREME SEXISM, SUPPORT FOR ABUSE AND RAPE AGAINST WOMEN AND CHILDREN, WHICH ARE ALMOST ALWAYS DISMISSED AND NEVER INVESTIGATED BY THE POLICE, THEIR CLASSIST SOCIETY PUSH MILLIONS TO SUICIDE BUT HEY, THEY'RE YOUR WHITE BROTHERS AREN'T THEY!!?
I would be upset too if it was that close...but proud as well.
Artistry + jumps will beat out just jumps every time.
So on point Scherbakova won the gold and beat out 5 quad jumping sasha trusova
It's a shame, but if Surya Bonaly was going to bring forth something and protest, it should have been the year before at the 93 World's. Such disgusting, tragic judging and conniving corruption at that event denying Ms. Bonaly the title and what she achieved. But this year 94, it wasn't even close due to Bonaly's errors and less smooth Four Seasons compared to her best-ever and complete performance in 93. It's still baffling that the ordinals was 5 to 4. However, she really was the 1993 World Champion and was denied that truth. This protest was quite the shocking moment back then, and it was quite a way to end the strange, controversial and tense 93-94 figure skating season. It's always interesting that in this American network coverage, during the medal ceremony and Bonaly's protest, Kurt Browning (from Canada) stated that perhaps it's her mother playing a role in the protest. That was not surprising from him because Kurt was just newly retired from amateurs and the skating world and community know about things and ways of people in the skating world, including Surya's mother and her eccentric ways. For those not familiar, you could look it up about some of the things Surya's mother did or said which affected Surya's career.
I can only wonder if Surya’s mother put her up to this. I cannot relate to her, personally, but I truly believe that Sato was better on this day and deserved the gold over Bonaly. If Sato had made a couple of mistakes, then I could see the controversy, especially with this taking place in Japan. That wasn’t the case, though… I definitely sympathize with the media ambush, if nothing else. She needed to get outta there. That was painful to watch.
remember though how Surya was feeling she was robbed of the gold the previous year, so for her to perceive it happening again it's understandable
@@StewNWT the previous year? What happened then? I see that Baiyul won it. Just by looking at the standings, it seems there was a lot of inconsistent skating, overall. I’ll need to go rewatch that before I can decide if Bonaly was robbed that year or not. I’m willing to accept that if it’s truly the case.
I am usually a tough girl (have been all my life) but Surya is one girl that I wouldn't mess with. I'd think I would back to her in a minute! Yikes!!

Judges from a bunch of different countries gave their scores, Surya lost by a single point. A razor thin loss. The Japanese skater that won the gold medal seemed to have done an incredible job. No doubt racism is an issue not just in skating but literally every facet of life. But in this case it’s easy to see why some people might view this as someone being a sore loser.
History will ALWAYS show how UNFAIR the scores were. However Surya, in GOD'S EYES, you will ALWAYS have the VICTORY. 👏
I can't say there was no racism in figure skating, but I can say that Sato and Surya deserve the right medal. Gold and Silver.
Over time they would penalize her for being physically able to do what others couldn't, judged get because she was so muscular, docked her because of her braid and she cut it to continue.... But y'all just say she's a soiled best, sore loser.... She was tired of their crap
if you actually watch her performance compared to the japanese skater you would have to agree that her one impressive move was not enough to slingshot her into first. the performance is not based off the best single trick a skater can pull off. she should have been happy with silver which is no small accomplishment
@@kkcool9932 I agree
当時の佐藤選手のスケーティングはジャンプに関しては多少劣っていたかもしれないが、全体的なスケーティングの上手さは世界が認める素晴らしい滑りでした。 特にリンクを真っ直ぐ滑る高速のステップは彼女にしか出来ない難しい技でした。 日本を代表する素晴らしいスケーターだと思います。
That Queen knows she Won😎😎😎!
Suryaaaaaaaaaaa tha real winner.
Just because of her stupid backflip and her ethnic group... Don't be pathetic.
Umm, no. Big jumps is only one part of a performance, sorry. There’s much more to it.
B-chu You’re the pathetic one.
@@basketutorial9349 back flips are ILLEGAL
Bullshit
どっちの味方もできない... どっちの気持ちも分かる...
It was the right outcome. It is sad that the young silver medalist had so much difficulty losing gracefully, but she was very young, and it is hard to lose.
She and Yuka were born in the same year, Yuka is just 9 months older. I do understand the feeling of missing out on the gold tho, there's a saying that the bronze medalist is the 3rd place winner, the silver medalist is the first to lose
Surya a été orgueilleuse. La japonnaise avait fait un superbe programme long, et sans mettre une main à terre,contrairement à Surya. Ça doit évidemment être une déception importante mais c'est aussi cela la compétition de haut niveau... Il faut encaisser. 2eme au championnat du monde c'est pas non plus de la merde. Contrairement à ce qu'elle dit, on ne lui a pas volé la médaille d'or. La Japonnaise était excellente.
I have always liked Surya, and my comment isn’t really about whether or not I think she should have won or even whether or not she should have done what she did, but I do think it is unfortunate that she took her medal off (and subsequently got booed) right as Tanja was getting her medal.
Bien por ella ! La apoyo .. le robaron El Oro
Entonces no has visto la excelente rutina de Yuca, sin duda fue mejor, aquí nadie robó nada
Si favorecieron a Yuka Sato cometió errores más notables que la francesa, yo también tendría esa actitud.
People there were no racism here! Go watch the two women's competition video and you will understand why Yuka was given first place. After watching both women compete i agree with the judges decision.
Sad that those other two women had their moment stolen from them. the day she threw the flowers back at them she was all done in my eyes. That's such poor sportsmanship. Rules & standards of figure skating are very conservative. Everyone knows this when they join the sport. Those that have tried to sculpt those rules & standards have been ready to accept the grades accordingly. That's GOOD sportsmanship. Thats having the courage of your convictions. Look at how many yrs Elvis Stoyko accepted lower grades for going rogue. He knew what he was up against & he took it like a man. Surya was very strong in some areas (amazingly so) but she was lacking in others. She wanted to try to re-sculpt the grading/standards to reflect her personal talents & downplay her weaker ones. That was just not going to wash. How could she expect credit for moves that are not even legal in her chosen sport?
@@eyezbaby1 Name one thing I said that was racist. I have no hate of any race in me. My family has members of all races, and all are equally loved & accepted. Reread what I said...it's a very conservative sport by way of rules and standards. They do not change those to suit individual skaters & probably never will to any great extent. She knew that when she went from being a gymnast into figure skating.
@@eyezbaby1 Well, I agree w/you on some issues & not on others, my friend. I think if they judged her on her appearance she would have been rated higher, not lower. She was a young, healthy, pretty young woman. And at the time she did the back flips, I don't think any skater of any color would have found it accepted. It was illegal, and the judges are very stiff in figure skating...gotten somewhat better since. But she knew the score when she started, and if she wanted to try to change things that was her right, but also their right to stay firm, and move slowly. I will probably always feel badly that she took moments away from other skaters that had waited & worked for for years. Their parents sacrificed like her's did. She had to know how many innocent people got hurt when she made things all about herself. That to me is not good sportsmanship. I liked her, recognized her strengths, but I could have respected her more.
I agree that Surya acted the wrong way, however I think she was just an upset and sad teenager (not because of the backflip, that happens in other olympics) who gave everything she got and still wasn’t enough to win :(
theresa bollman I agree with you. I think Surya displayed poor sportsmanship when she refused to stand on the podium and wear her silver medal. When Yuna Kim should've won Olympic Gold and lost to Adelina Sotnikova in 2014, she didn't treat Adelina rudely. She took second place and accepted the medal without any complaints. The only thing she said was that there were times that she didn't understand the results she got, and this time was no different. Surya's behaviour was truly shocking to me because I've never seen a figure skater behave that way (aside from Evgeni Plushenko crossing over the first place podium in Vancouver to the second place). I also understand the criticisms regarding her skating skills and artistry on ice. Figure skating is both an art and a sport. Thus, it's not only about jumps and spins. If figure skating was only about jumps and spins, then there wouldn't be a need for any music or choreographers to design programs for skaters.
@sofia s Thank you. I was never a pro in any sport, but good sportsmanship was drilled into our heads from the beginning and I could never have made it all about me & stolen the long awaited special moments. Must admit the other two young ladies were very classy.
진짜 다른 선수에 대한 예의가 없다. 저 흑인선수가 동양인을 무시하고있어서 자기보다 낮은 점수를 받아야 한다고 생각한게 아닐까?
Individual or teams win; Individual or teams lose. It is the main part of the game. If you can not handle losing.....this isn't your sport. I wouldn't feel bad about Surya....she made it to a Netflix special.
Netflix Special.....Losers! Hey! Her tantrum got her in that "Special." lol
The only thing worse than Bonaly behavior at the medal presentation was the press who bounced on her like a pack of vultures on roadkill. Yuka won by far!
Robbery
When race plays a part....its sucks
Race card....denied. Surya was a truck on skates. Yuka deserved this one. Nice try though.
@@metsdudenj lucky for Surya she said fuck it I'll back flip my way into skating history and she did...only systemically racist people say things like "nice try" but I get it I wouldn't want to be accused of racism either but back then the "ice princess" role needed to be filled according to Tanya Harding....now with that how many white judges are going to look at a black girl in figure skating and think...."ice princess"?
Oh yes, probably the white male judges are fetishizing Asian skaters, so they gave the first place in the Japanese, and not Surya at the World Championships LOL
@@omarcrobinson So, you must be a systematic racist yourself for even thinking Surya should've gotten special treatment from the judges for being black. I wonder why you look down on black people so much... Oh, I know --- you're a systemic racist!
No, I don't think she was a "terrible skater" but I dont think her best bet was Figure Skating. There is a natural and delicate grace needed for some parts of it and she just did not possess that quality. They say she did try for a while to try to develope some of that, but could not master is. It really has to be God-given, I think. That's when she went all out trying to be "GYMNAST ON ICE" but that's a no no in figure skating. Some of the more successful, graceful female skaters tried to tell her "Figure Skating is more than just jumps" but she was intent on making the sport change to suit her needs. She shamed herself one too many times when she failed. They say her mother is the culprit. Maybe so, I can't say. But to deprive other women of their well earned moment in the spotlight (and their families as well) was very, very selfish.
I would have wondered off best they kept that silver ish and shove it
Bonaly got straight up robbed. Opinions of her attitude on the podium do not change this.
Surya Bonaly got robbed all right. Bonaly did not skate a clean program that night. So another skater broke through and won. Surya Bonaly had nothing to be mad about.
Yuka was a better overall skater and had a better night. Most people wouldn't be a brat about it. At least Slutskaia waited until she was backstage to allegedly throw her bronze in the trash, and they both make Plushenko look good.
Robbed how? Yuka had the same amount of triples that were cleanly landed plus stable flow in her step sequence and clean edges. Bonaly’s landings and step sequences were hardly anything to write home about.
@e.i.3077 Not necessarily, Surya's landing on all her triples except for loop and toe at the end of the program were all very solid and clean landings. Yuka underrotated one of her salchows and had some insecure landings on the triple lutz and flip. While I do think Yuka's win was justified because of the lack of mistakes and the quality of the program, I don't think the jumping was on the same level as Surya, especially when Surya had a more difficult program constructed with Attempts at 2 Triple Triple Combinations and 2 Triple Lutz jumps.
@@TheWayWithKhuwayneWell, if that’s the case, they both landed the same amount of triples. Surya had more difficult combinations though. I still feel like Sato won the gold that night. Sato had such a gorgeous program, while Surya did not perform well. 1993 should have been Bonaly’s year
I can only stare in awe and respect for the courage of this young woman to stand alone before the world in rightful protest of the rendering of an unfair judgement of her skill, based solely upon the color of her skin.
That's a load of bs and you know it. 😂
동양인도 피부색으로 차별 받는데?? 흑인들은 항상 자신들만 차별 받는다고 생각함.
Bullshit. Sato was the rightful winner. Her performance clearly had more artistry than the athleticism of Bonely.
Was it though or did the other girl skate better?
@@user-cy9tr7kr3y Then you understand just how "color" biased this sport is.
I remember watching this when I was a kid omg I really felt sorry Surya I know a lot of ppl were liek bad attitude bla bla but my heart went out to her, it was heart breaking I felt her pain she’s not a sore loser clearly she was hurt but only God knows what was going in her mind
She's got 2nd place why isn't she happy?
Entitled black
when you know your worth you know you deserve better.
@estranghero4525 I watched Yuka and Surya performance Surya did much harder techniques but was unable to deliver with some mistakes. As for Yuka performance although she did not do difficult techniques yet her performance were smooth, nicely well done and delivered. If you rewatch you'll see what I mean and I agree with the judges decision because it was not well deliver.
@@Maygan777 what do you mean her techniques were much harder but was unable to deliver with some mistakes?? she got second place. Yuka and Surya was literally so close in score but Surya had way better score in technicals. So why say she was unable to deliver. Also, did you even really watch her peformance? she literally did 6 jumps with 2 triple spins consecutively and on top of that, did it perfectly. Idk what you are talking about when it comes to who worked harder here.
@@estranghero4525I wonder who would win in todays scoring system
It's poor sportsmanship. It's her attitude that's being booed. She's disappointed & throwing a tantrum. S
I know casual fans don’t understand this but quality of edges and footwork also count as technical aspects and Bonaly’s kindergarten edges couldn’t compare to Sato’s flow and stability.
Exactly 💯
This may be the case, but racism and sexism are so apparent in this ceremony
@@S1NKYs I don’t think so, it’s just that the officials and the public are not entertaining the utter lack of sportsmanship. Her little tantrum was an utter disrespect to her fellow competitors.
@@S1NKYs You should have your eyes examined.
If you are talking about technical scores, then Surya won… so ur comment really doesn’t make any sense…
Bonaly was an excellent skater, but not a world champion. Her skating was disjointed and ungainly. That backflip was proof. Now she also is a pouter. Truly not the class of skating that Janet Lynn, Michelle Kwan or Sasha Cohen were. Each of those ladies lost in big events and graciously kept their dignity .
"Her skating was disjointed and ungainly" yet she got Silver 🤨🙃. On top of that, I think it's fair for Surya to feel the way she felt especially being 2nd at World's multiple times. It's stressful for any athlete to go through doing everything only to get second.
Michelle get your mug out of here....lol
Surya bonaly really got robbed of gold this time😔😔😥 disgraced finland judge🤬😤
Poor sportsmanship.
Yeah. I get being disappointed over not winning the gold -- but, silver is nothing to scoff at! Just wear the medal, smile, and wave to the audience like the others were doing. Cry about it in private!
there is a difference between not getting gold because of worse performance, and not getting gold doing the better performance by far and getting rob by racists

Not everyone hides and saves their face like Japanese people. It’s important to express your emotions and be true to yourself.
Racist
Bonely has a bad attitude.. gold or not.. ot was fair. Her behavior here doesnt make me feel sorry for her. Life is tough wear a helmet
Surya should have won and they robbed her.
No she shouldn’t have. Yuka Sato the gold medalist skated 2 programs perfectly without any error. Her jumps, skating skills are of higher quality than Surya’s
@@hongngocole5691 Why because Yuka Sato is light skinned compare to Surya's dark complextion.
@@Lionheart831 Your absurd thoughts make me speechless. Do you think the Japanese really lost? Don't interpret the truth emotionally.
@@Lionheart831 Probably because Asians are a "model minority" and white male judges fetishize Asian skaters, so they gave first place to the Japanese, and not Surya at the World Championships. LOL
She touched down on one of her jumps though, plus she was too wobbly. I think that is what cost her the Gold here. I do feel bad for Surya, I think she was a very talented athlete, but for some reason she just did not seem to have the artistic side that other skaters did. That was not her fault either. Some skaters can not do the difficult jumps she did.
She should have acted like that

Such poor sportsmanship and lack of graciousness. It's embarrassing to watch.
Bonary lacked social manners in public. It is no good.
Watch the Losers episode about her on Netflix. She deserved more but the judges never wanted to award her
First of all you need to learn how to spell*bonaly*
Surya and Nancy and Tonya. The year of the sore losers. Oksana and Chan Lu deserved Gold. Surya was one amazing skater. I can not stand Nancy Kerrigan. I felt sory for Tonya.
Unsportsmanlike conduct from Surya Bonaly. You’re never gonna win every game or competition in any sport! Handling a loss with grace comes with sport. Plus a lot of comments here say she should have won etc but did you see the others skate?! Probably not. I remember watching this and Yuka had the stronger and more technical program. This entire flight of skaters that year were all excellent. She should have been proud of her second place finish. It was one heck of achievement given that the entire competition was tight!
Sure😂😂😂😂
She did it as a sign of protest because it was not the first time that the gold medal had been stolen from her because of her skin color. Do your research first before commenting!
What you know raciste ..sport out politicien.. .brave surya the queen
She was always treated badly bc of her skin color. This was a protest to let them know she KNEW.
@@TeaSpiracyWym? She was overscored in a lot of competitions. I think she deserved gold in 1993 but not here. In 1994 she two-footed 3Lz, fell on 3Lo, and failed her 3F-3T. Yuka Sato skated 100% clean. So Yuka def won here. Skin color didn’t cause her to get silver. Because Yuka Sato was Asian.
I was thrilled Sato won. Tanya was such a lovely skater. To come back from death by spinal meningitis to this was incredible. I think Bonaly’s behavior ruined the special moment for both of the other ladies. She should have felt privledged to stand on the podium with them.
Um anyways-

I remember this event. Oh poor Surya and poor Yuka to have to experience this as well. Surya unfortunately had a rush of emotions and you do crazy things at the time. It was such a close vote. Honestly, Yuka did win this with her overall speed and presentation. I really think Surya should have won the 93 worlds instead.
+Will R Shouldnt be in the Olympics if its all presentation and no athleticism.
+General Mosh And Yuka Sato beat her on athleticism as well, which you would know if you watched the performances and understood the technical difficult elements of this sport.
General Mosh artistry and athleticism are both equally important in figure skating.
Yup, '93 result was the real travesty! No way Baiul deserved to win over Bonaly...
The Japanese figure skaters outfit is honestly really cute
