Most Asian parents would not even allow their kids to pursue the arts/sports as a career so hats off to this dudes parents.

[@tanyazheng5669]

Because most of kids are not as good as he is.

[@hananhvu]

How can someone be so good at so many things I’ve been playing piano for 8 years and I suck😭

[@finnmacdiarmid3250]

This aged perfectly

[@timothychin1594]

[@scratchtovoid_]

Wow yup watch out for him in 2018... 😊

[@miszer3605]

GO NATHAN CHEN! ❤️ 🇺🇸 🇨🇳

[@LiLi-wj3th]

Not only him but all of his 4 siblings are talented and one of his sister is another Forbes under 30 together with him. His mum should write a book! His mum is a very inspiring person herself. When she came to the USA she did not know English at all but later she became an interpreter in hospital. His dad is a doctor and they had 5 Children. All the children are well educated and talented. Being gifted is only one tiny part of the reason. This family is a typical Asian family in the USA.

[@negg7046]

if only it was the typical situation.

[@uditabhattacharya2824]

Why is his sister on the list??

[@penguinswithwifi]

@@uditabhattacharya2824 The sister founded a biotech firm. She did a Ted Talk a few years ago about disease detection.

[@ElizabethBWang]

Standing ovation for #NathanChen. 2022 Beijing Olympic Gold Medal!!! What an amazing skater/athlete/artist. Chinese- American are proud of you

[@panpenl7800]

2022 & watching this, impressive!

[@janamckay]

Ballet training is so important to figure skating

[@Thewired2201]

Bro I feel like I've done nothing as a 16 year old 💀💀💀 man's literally a prodigy at everything

[@grticecream]

Also hockey and gymnastics. He does it all

[@emilyx8377]

This was so heartwarming to watch! What a great kid he was, and now, what a great adult.

[@NeverSaySandwich1]

Holy crap he was born for the big time. Good for him. Olympic champ

[@ForeverSweetx3]

What this was 11 years ago?? They need to replay this for him on an interview

[@BritniAlexander]

OMG he did it

[@kristenjunker1632]

"It's not that hard", said no one about figure skating. So talented.

[@DarthV3622Fkm]

NYT on Nathan after he won the Olympic Gold Medal: Uno, who finished second to Hanyu at the 2018 Games, said, “Nobody can expect perfect jumps, except Nathan.”

[@johnpymn9869]

Amazing results when parents actually parent,, instill in their children the drive to succeed. sad commentary on the ones who dont.

[@dashoverton1963]

Funny how Nathan was watching Evan Lysacek win the Olympic Gold Medal on tv., then more than a decade later, he too wins his own Olympic Gold Medal. Who knows? Maybe there was another kid watching Nathan win the gold and aspiring to become a champion too some day.

[@鈴木洋子-s6r]

大人になったネイサンチェンさん素敵だけどchildのときもも可愛らしい❤

[@skatefan9495]

For once, the predictions are right!

[@jongredmond8916]

... Is it bad that I learned the minute waltz when i was 13 and he learned it and played it at 10... He is literally a genius child....

[@fridaynighthair5540]

Best of the best! We are proud of you!

[@randomname7680]

Удивительный мальчик вырос в потрясающего парня!

[@tenzinjangchup4375]

damnn, how do they raise a kid like him?

[@bostonskin32]

I guess a lot of training :( but he/she has to like it :(

[@meaganbooks179]

his family

[@KatherineUribe-1]

Tiger parenting.

[@viktoria8189]

Usually, kids like this are the products of ther parents efforts and hard work. Without it talents are just there helping out the owner of them here or there but nothing that outstanding.

[@LiLi-wj3th]

They actually raised up 5 kids with talents though the others are not world champion.

[@kaluga95]
