Midori Ito's Courageous Comeback Wins Silver - Albertville 1992 Winter Olympics

📲 Subscribe to @olympics: http://oly.ch/Subscribe Relive the incredibly courageous moment Japan's Midori Ito comes back from an early fall in her figure skating routine to complete with amazing skill and win the event's silver medal at the Albertville 1992 Winter Olympic Games. Though American figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi was the Olympic champion, another athlete also made her mark in the Albertville 1992 Winter Olympics women's individual competition. Midori Ito had arrived at the Albertville 1992 Olympics as the favourite for the gold medal, but a poor performance in the short program made it challenging to fulfil that objective. Even just to maintain her hopes of an Olympic medal, the Japanese skater now needed a strong display in the long program. So when she failed to land a triple Axel at the beginning of her presentation, one could expect her confidence to be definitely shaken. Midori Ito, however, showing true Olympic spirit not only kept to her routine but also took a chance and attempted the triple Axel once again. This time, Ito landed it brilliantly and with that, became the Albertville 1992 women's individual figure skating Olympic silver medallist. Later, at the Nagano 1998 Winter Olympic Games, Midori Ito was chosen to be the final torchbearer and light the Olympic flame. _____________________________________________________ 🇨🇳 #Beijing2022 replays: https://oly.ch/B22Replays 🇯🇵 #Tokyo2020 replays: https://oly.ch/T20Replays 🗞️ News from the Olympic world: https://oly.ch/News
