He always looks like he has super elite top end speed right at the end of the 100m. This might be his ideal race

Amazing performances but, sports science research on J C Owens has already concluded that if he had the benefits now available to modern athletes (particularly track surfaces, starting blocks, training, nutrition, footwear and textiles), his best 100m time of 10.2sec would fall well below 10sec. Thus the throwaway statement about the legendary F G Joyner (10.49sec) beating the legendary James Cleveland Owens, is very inaccurate. Conversely, if FGJ ran under 1930s conditions she would have been significantly slower than in 1988: consider at the time, the fastest woman and Olympic champion, Helen Stephens, was running 11.4sec.

FloJo L👀Ks spankin’ in that outfit! 🤩❤

I know who the other 3 are but Wayne Gretzky? What sport did he do?

was there , was Surin therapist at the time , pulled his adductors in the curve

That wasn't the Tour de France but Criterium International (1997)

🎉

This is why they added a soft material on the basketball stand afterwards... Truly tragic and not funny

パウエル速すぎる

and Wells didn't use starting blocks

Ingemar dominated long jump in this weird allstars-decathlon?

Leroy my big cuzzo was moving

Great pacemaker

ESPN needs more Charley Steiners and fewer of whoever they're putting on TV, today. Bring a little humor and levity back to sports broadcasting, and get rid of these insider dweebs and knockoff CNN automatons.

This guy was a better sprinter than Carl Lewis 😂

It doesn't matter what the haters say, her form was perfect. People can make assumptions about steroid usage all they want, but I've never known roids to give a person perfect running form.

For thats incredible he ran with a Cheetah, became a cheater though

Druggy

Can't make a comparison with 1936. Different shoes, different track....

shouldn't the "wind" have aided the other runners in Flo Jos record. We all know whats up but doesn't take away too much how great Flo Jo was

OJ commentating

do you have the Heats 2? My mother participated in it .

Elegancia al correr

*The Flo Jo beating Jesse Owens comment is were I sign off. Don't be ridiculous, the man was running on dirt tracks with no starting blocks... if he ran on a rubber track with starting blocks and cleats, he would be running around upper-mid 9s and that is reasonable because there was an under 10 sec sprinter who tried running under the same conditions as Owens and was not able to break 11 sec*

Its criminal that all top sprinters today are doping and get away with it, yet this guy was made an example of

Usa's greatest women's track and field team, EVER!

Wow polish power

Admitted cheat for years ! What a narcissist . Sad

Carl Lewis was only concerned about "looking sweet." He never ran races all the way through the tape. He was always slacking up near the end of the race and looking over his shoulder to humiliate his opponents behind him. This is exactly the reason why he holds ZERO WORLD OUTDOOR TRACK RECORDS TODAY.

10:61 is still Olympic Gold right now!

flo dope before the dope.

Absolutely love this, so wonderful to see King Carl enjoying his life and having a moment of humour. Thank you for sharing!

Steroids worked great back then

Flow flow amazing track runner God bless you in heaven God bless you in heaven

Who was second? Kenya

1-44.03 and Juantorena looked like he was just jogging for 60% of the race.

I think Carl Lewis would have run in 19.50 if only he had focused in the 200 m. Lyles, Tebogo, Bednarek are very good but Lewis could do the same things, maybe better, 40 years ago!

Those were the days when athletes were classy.

awesome catch up!

Great guy. Spots helped him ovecome harrassment at school. He rejected every invitation from the KKK, Le Pen, and all the white supremacists. As Usain Bolt said, being the 'Fastest White Man' put him under so much pressure that it almost ruined his career. Bro just wanted to run and go home.

The flag was flopping in the wind, yet they said it was calm with 0 mph wind. 😅😅😅😅

Black trained his heart out and couldn’t keep the lead because the guy behind him was super charged. How disappointing that must be.

Katochvilova, Koch, and Flo-Jo have some things in common. Same generation, impossible world records. I have the same respect all of them and I give them the same credit. Great athletes from "other era".

Ben was the best and what was done to him was was nothign short of a travesty.

"Ben Johnson looks like she does" lol

he is probably right.

Watched this live as an eight year old which is how I’ve ended up rewatching. Was this shown on Grandstand or ITV? Can’t remember

His final 1500 metre title, though he won the commonwealth games 5000 meters in 1986.
