The First 10.0 Gymnast Nadia Comaneci 'Memba Her?!
First Perfect 10.0 Gymnast Nadia Comaneci 'Memba her?!
Romanian gymnast Nadia Comaneci was only 14 years old when she skyrocketed to stardom after becoming the first gymnast to score a perfect 10.0 at the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games.
In addition to her perfect-scoring status, the gymnastics icon scored six MORE perfect 10s and grabbed 3 gold medals. To no surprise -- but extremely difficult to do so -- she qualified for her 2nd games in 1980, taking 2 more gold medals and two 10.0s back to Romania.
Today, she's still recognized and respected as a gymnastics legend and continues to use her platform for leadership roles.
