Perfect 10



In the summer of 1976, I was infatuated with Nadia Comaneci. She scored a perfect 10 on bars, which was a first at the Olympics. I remember playing "Nadia" with my Barbie doll on a set of uneven bars I made out of Tinker Toys.

I came across this really cool Adidas ad that blends footage of her uneven bars routine with video of a more recent gymnastics phenom, Nastia Liukin. The ad aired during the 2006 Olympics.
