Yuzuru Hanyu, a men's figure skating single from the Beijing Olympics, tried a four-and-a-half-turn jump for free on the 10th, but fell and was not successful and finished fourth.

He missed his third straight title, but did everything in his second half of the adversity.

At the end of the article, I will look back on the performance of the body that Hanyu showed with a photo.

: "There were a lot of things that didn't go well from the shorts, but it just didn't work, but this time. But I did my best.

After the short program, fans from all over the country visited "Hanyu Ten Shrine" in Osato Town, Miyagi Prefecture, which has a similar name to Hanyu, and wished for a successful four-and-a-half-turn jump and a free rebound.

"I should have been able to reduce the difficulty of jumping and aim for medals, but I thought it was amazing that I chose to try a four-and-a-half-turn jump. When I watched the second straight victory in the field, I couldn't think of it four years later, but it was four years of the challenge of creating a technique without a model from scratch. I think. I think my body and mind are exhausted, so I want you to take a rest. "
