Recall the tragedy when she broke her neck two weeks before the opening of the 1980 Summer Olympics, leaving her permanently quadriplegic. That was on a now-banned rollout skill on Floor. Her coach Mikhail Klimenko was blamed by Elena.
She died likely of complications from quadriplegia on 22 December 2006 (aged 46). Klimenko died of cancer age-65.
