Kurt Thomas, 1st US male to win gymnastics gold at world championships has passed at age 64 due to complications from a stroke suffered on May 24.

He was known for having arms that were longer than his legs.

He invented the 'Thomas Flare" move on the pommel horse.
 
R.I.P. I remember him. He took on the Russians and won. He was in such great shape. Surprised he passed at only 64.
 
I definitely recognize the name. RIP.
