Listening to this podcast series on ESPN 30 for 30. #TIL that Bela Karolyi knew how to play to the camera and how he put mental strain on the athletes that he was training. The Karolyi's treated the gymnasts as disposable items and literally walked away from them when they could not win medals anymore.
