I think this is a great Olympic moment because on Kerri Strung's first vault routine, she badly injured her ankle and had to be carried off the mats. But in order for her team to have a chance at the gold, she had to do a second vault routine. And she did! Even with her injured ankle, she still carried out the vault perfectly, running through the pain and sticking the landing on both feet flawlessly. She then had to be carried to the medals podium by her coach.
I think it's pretty amazing that Kerri was able to compete even when she was so injured. Any other person could have just said "No. I just can't do it." She showed real determination and true Olympic spirit.
