Dorothy Hamill finished second in figure skating at the 1976 Winter Olympics, then won the short and long programs for gold. She is the only figure skater to win a gold medal without using a triple jump since then. She even invented a new skating move, the “Hamill camel,” which is a camel spin that transforms into a sit spin.
