1950s Gymnastics Vs Modern Gymnastics [Video]

Gymnastics has come a long way over the last 50 years.  MTV News posted an interesting video of what gymnastics looked like in the 1950s and 60s compared to what it looks like today and the differences are insane!  Apparently, at one time in Olympic history, doing a glorified cartwheel over a pummel horse was considered something amazing.

Check out the video below and see for yourself the incredible difference in ability between gymnasts today and gymnasts a half a century ago.

That's crazy!  Curtis could have probably brought home a gold in the 1950s!
