On July 18, 1976, at the Montreal Olympics, in the Forum arena, Nadia Comăneci became the first gymnast in the history of the Games to receive a perfect 10. She was awarded the maximum score seven times in Montreal.

She is the first gymnast to win Olympic gold for Romania.

"Flight. Perfection. Smiles and amazement. A Romanian woman wrote the history of a sport with the innocence of a 14-year-old child. The moment in Montreal 1976, on the evening of July 18, changed the world of gymnastics," the Romanian Olympic Committee wrote in a Facebook post, cited by Hotnews.ro.
