2. Dmitry Sautin is called the queen of diving ,
a symbol of the sport. Today, he is at an age
when his skills and years can say - he's a true
professional. Meanwhile, 20 years ago, no one
could have predicted that an athlete can
achieve such a unique success.
Dmitry childhood was physically strong ,
could easily catch up on the bar and keep the
area for a long time , but was extremely
inflexible and could not swim . So it seems
paradoxical that your way to the top in the
sport he started jumping in the water section
which in 1981 gained children's sports school
coach Voronezh Tatiana Starodubtseva . It is
known to her alone , as she had guessed the
future of a great master in a storm of gates , a
potential " client" inspection of juvenile
offenders.
3. It may seem that way in the sport Dmitry Sautin strewn among the roses .
Indeed it is very early to draw the attention of the country's leading experts .
Many marveled at his jumping technique . Especially admired all his perfectly
vertical entry into the water . So much so that in the years after it is
nicknamed "guy with the lead in the head ." This is despite the fact that he, a
young man of small stature , it was sometimes difficult to distinguish on the
tower.
4. According Honored Master of Sports, Olympic champion
in diving , and now one of the leading sports journalists
in the country Helena Vaytsehovsky , those years Dmitry
execute arbitrary always jumping with a 10- meter tower ,
and mandatory - to 5 -meter . He has not yet learned to
fly , but it spun wildly in the air. Some experts believed
that such jumps will not bring it up to the good.
However, the skill of the young athlete growing before
our eyes , his performances became more stable, and
soon he became a head and shoulders above their peers.
A steep climb Dmitry Sautin on sports ladder began in
1991, when he barely got into the national team, winning
once on the 10-meter tower and the European Cup in 2nd
place at the European Championships in Athens.
Young Voronezh rapidly gaining points on the
international orbit. 1992 was marked by victories in the
European Cup in Milan , 3rd place on the trampoline in
the Barcelona Olympics . European Championship 1993
in the English city of Sheffield athlete has brought gold
for the 10-meter tower and silver in the 3- meter
springboard .
5. .
Dmitry achieved outstanding success in their sport . At the 2000 Olympics
in Sydney, won medals in all rooms in the men's program jumps into the
water.
It is considered the best Russian diver XX century. He is one of the few
athletes who successfully fought the Chinese divers in the water. He became

Twice (1998 and 2000) named the best athlete of the year in Russia .
Since 2010 - Vice- president of the Russian Federation in diving .
