At the Berlin 1936 Olympic Games, Jesse Owens, won gold in the 100m, 200m, 4x100m and Long Jump - all in front of the watching Adolf Hitler.
As an African-American athlete, Owens set three world records (200m, two in 4x100m), shattering Hitler’s theories of Aryan superiority.

Jesse Owens remains the most influential track and field athlete of all time. He was calm and composed. What a legend and what an athlete.
but what about bolt
@@chinoz5613 Bolt is the best sprinter of all time but Jesse did more than just sprinting. Also his influence and impact is far greater then Bolt's. But I do love Bolt he's a great human being.
@@garyhiggins4519 ok but i think more people know about bolt than owens
@@chinoz5613 no one talk about bolt here
Not really, he was paranoid about his performance during the qualifiers. It was Luz Long (the tall dude who comes after Owens finishes the long jump) who calmed him down
Notice how luz long immediately comes to congratulate jesse owens after his jump!!!! priceless
Yes, very sad he had to perish in the war. Glad Jesse did fulfill Luz's wishes of asking Jesse to see his son Karl after the war.
This was worth more than platinum!!!!
Jesse Owens transcends athletics a true hero and a credit to his race the human race
Robert Brown well the human race didn’t give af about him even after this😔

@Imani Alexander and ?
There's no such thing as a "human race". A race is a SUBSET of humans, based on particular ancestry. It's like saying "There's only of breed of dog, the Canine breed". No, there are Canines, and there are breeds of Canines. Pretending every dog is the same breed is as silly as pretending everyone is the same race.
I love how the other men look like they’re dying and he looks so effortless as he glides right past them lol
So smooth...

In India we had an entire Literature chapter about Jesse Owens victory at the Berlin Olympics from his own personal perspective
My greatest Olympic prize
Lol searched about Jesse Owens from there
Yeah I remembered it, you're probably from ICSE
Owen's vs master race
@@abhikdixit2066 That's an extract from My greatest Olympic prize of class 10 icse in class 8 icse textbook
The american that got second in the 200 meters was Mack Robinson Jackie Robinson's older brother .
El Tigre
Mack got very little recognition for his accomplishment when he got home. He was overshadowed by Jesse in the Olympics and later overshadowed by his little brother who became a hero to millions.
I was lucky enough to meet him once at the very first Jackie Robinson night at Dodger Stadium in 1977. He was a very kind and generous man. He gave me a ball that he and members of the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers had signed. I still have it.
Imdontai’s broke Headphones
that wasnt THAT long ago....
@@imdontaisbrokeheadphones6741 What kind of question is that? That's terrible!
So he's affiliated with 2 of the biggest black sport pioneers in US history? Haha wow, that's awesome
@@mrboffo2861 that’s awesome
One of my favorite sports moments in history
Jesse Owens was INCREDIBLE.... He didn't even look like he wasn't just running. He looked like he was floating on air...
totally, and then Usain Bolt came into the world 50 years later after this historic moment
honestly cant even believe they held the Olympics in Germany during all of this.... thank you Jesse Owens
Same stuff happening today with China 🇨🇳 lol
Because germany wasnt seen as the huge threat yet.
WW2 began in 08 1939...
Now they are holding the world cup in Qatar ! Some things never change !
@@geraldhills41 and the next in USA, things never changing at all, criminal nations like USA,Russia , China getting chances smh
Imagine Jesse Owens now with the proper training and new techniques they have now , feel like he would be a unstoppable machine
true.
And, of course, drugs
@@tommyharris5817 So all black people do drugs
@@tommyharris5817Didn't need drugs to win
Because nobody was on them
@@invisiblesun6595
It’s so sad that Germany gave him more love than his own country.
True. Americans (and some similar countries) were completely crazy. Demons. Hurting others for no real reason.
Obviously they would, they were hosting the Olympics with the world watching. That statement has always been so dumb
@@bigpapi6688smooth brain statement
although the ridiculous American dream has a hard time admitting it, if that's what happened to Jessie upon his return.
@@bigpapi6688that doesn’t explain why they were nice to him while the public wasn’t watching though, as he later recalled
This footage is amazing. I'm related to the Dutch guy (my great uncle) who won bronze behind Owens in the 100 and 200m. It's part of a great historical sporting achievement.
The footage is all from Leni Riefenstahl's OLYMPIA, possibly the best sports documentary ever made. A lot of the camera techniques you see in any sporting event were developed by Riefenstahl as she prepared to film these Olympic games.
The greatest moment here was when that german helped him :D
Nice side note.
His name was Carl lutz long and he was a surprisingly cool guy. Owens saw him as a friend.
@@Sai4651 i am here because of a story jesse Owens wrote about luz named "my greatest Olympic prize' saying this friendship he formed here was more precious than any of the gold medals he won 😃😃
Abhinav Singh me too its in my syllabi
that LUZ LONG
Incredible that we got these footage. The GOAT. The pioneer. Amazing running form for the old days. In the 100 you could see everyone struggling and super tight. Jesse had the instinct and stayed relaxed, destroying everyone.
Legend
TheIrishMan theres a movie about this and by the eay the whiye guy he shook hands with was kill for treason in WW2
He truly is.
What an inspirational person. I wish I could just have a glimpse into the mind of this man during the preparation that brought him to winning this tournament.
We all need a friend like luz long in our life
i just love the moment when they pan the camera om Hitler’s face😂😂
The same face woke leftists make when a „cis“ woman wins gold
He had the look of "WHAT?!?! 😳😳😳 This cannot be?!?!"
I get goosebumps watching this! What a world class athlete Jesse Owens was ✊🏾
Beautiful he ran with grace :)) and was a trail blazer people don't appreciate you until your gone he had to run against horses when he got home to get money to survive a true hero :)) God bless ya Jesse x
That friendship with Luz Long changed the course of the event 😍
I'm here because I needed to see what Bill Burr was talking about. Now his bit is even more hilarious.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣me too.
Me too... siddd 😂
Guilty
same
Yep lol
When Jesse got back home and having his gold medals hanging from his neck, at the airport, the first thing he saw, was a sing written 'Whites-only' outside the public restroom.
And now we have blacks only businesses
Do you feel the same disgust at Muhammad Ali saying
_"You're my enemy. My enemy is the white people."_
😢😢😢
Very sad, because he was treated far better in Germany regardless of you-know-who who was in charge.
1:21 these two scenes were are amazing.
Jesse was running out of holes dug in the track, on cinder, and with leather shoes and ran a 10.2 sec. 100 m!? Are you kidding me!? What a legend.
Owens set the long jump record of 8.13m in 1935. It lasted for 25 years. 25 freakin' years!
@@hazelwood55 perfect athlete!
Just making an assumption here but the fact that Ralph Metcalfe was catching him up very quick in the ending makes me think that Jesse wasn't pushing 100% the last meters because he was winning easily so probably he could have achieve a better time. But anyway is still an impressive mark.
Germany ended up being the most successful Nation in the games, bringing in 89 medals, with America second.
Yet Owens remained the best
Yeah but not that day. 😂🤣
@juu9do278 America hated Jesses cope harder.
@Juu9do you guys hated Jesse Owens but now wanna flex his wins? You Americans are fcked in the head.
Who's coping here lol@juu9do278
The friendship between Luz long and Jesse ❤️😭
Fun freaking fact. The black guy in second place 1:09 is Jackie Robinson’s older brother
He did so so elegantly.
The Robinson brothers were amazing
The truth is that in the US at that time, a white man would never shake hands with Jesse Owens as I saw in this video.
You mean "a white American" because Europeans and Australians were much different.
Jesse Owens single handedly proved hitlers superiority theory was false
I came I saw I conquered.
@@spinningbackkick6021 I praise the lord
A tranquilidade que ele passa na corrida dele é sem igual, parece que nem se desgasta.
given the date, location, and audience, the cheerful handshake at 0:35 makes me extra happy
He ran effortlessly! No stress!
One small Germany in the size of HALF of state of Texas still won most gold medals that olympics.SHOCKING if you ask me!
And there is a reason they cannot duplicate that in 2024.
Drugs. They were all on drugs. An the US population wasn't much bigger than Germany in 1936. 80 millions vs about 128 millions.
Jesse Owen is the legend
i actually by accident came across a small chapter about jesse owens and luz long while in 9th grade around 2009. very interesting story. as you can see in the video, just after his long jump he gets congratulated by a german (luz long) who eventually wins silver.
They became fast friends, and even when the war broke out, they remained friends and wrote to each other hoping to meet again after the war, but his friend died in 1944 after being wounded in battle and passing away in hospital.
One of the many, many Foundational black American icons.
733 ...what a great number ..well done jesse ..
Amazing that he could run like that carrying those huge balls
LMAO
Anyone else currently reading 'The Book Thief'? LOL
Me
Exactly why I'm here!
That book was TRASH
Just finished it! The book was absolutely amazing and the ending made me cry🥺❤️
Me ..I searched for this .
I met Ralph Metcalfe in a restaurant in St Louis in 1974. I was with a friend from the USAF and we were went to his home in St Louis. We went to a diner and when we went in the door there was a group of men standing waiting to be seated. The mother of my friend suddenly stopped talking and looked at the men and said "HEY, YOU'RE RALPH METCALFE!!" It was funny that I had just read a book about Jesse Owens and know right away who he was. He was visiting friends in St Louis as part of doing some campaigning for election. I had had a chance to chat with him briefly, and, got to shake his hand. He was so open and friendly and very approachable. I only wish I had a picture with him.
So effortless, its like hes not even trying🔥🔥🔥
This video is so powerful.
and the audience goes wild and starts saluting !
Either salute or you know go to camp
Imagine knowing with full certainty you are the most athletic person in the entire world
The best olimpc Athlete all times... Hugs from 🇧🇷
The best olympic Athlete has been Duke Kahanamoku (1890-1968), who participed at 1912 Olympic Games (Stockholm-Gold medal), Despite the 1st World War, 1920 Olympic Games (Anvers- again Gold medal), 1924 Olympic Games (Paris-Silver medal), 1928 Olympic Games (Amsterdam-no medal), 1932 Olympic Games (Los Angeles-Bronze medal).
JESSE AND BOB WAS MY REASON FOR RUNNING TRACK!! TWO OF THE GREATEST TRACK MEN TOO RUN PERIOD!!! 5 21
The greatest 45 minutes in sports history!
C'est la plus belle vidéo de l'histoire de l'athlettismr
It is the more beautiful video of the history of athletics?
@@justina9914 google translate mistranslates a lot, be careful of relying too heavily on it. I'm pretty sure 'plus' can be 'most' as well.
@@TheThumbsUpGuy I didn't use google translate, I translated it myself
@@justina9914 oh, well alright then. I'm still learning french, so I have to apologize.
Exactly this Olympic channel obviously hasn't discovered that Owens achieved 4 golds at the Berlin Olympics - not 3 as indicated in the video (the last gold came in the 4x100 meter relay)!
Jessie the best runner the true GOAT!
He looks effortless and the others looks like they're dying lol hes so strong big legend respect
He is black that explains it
@@thearch4162ah the most pathetic type of statement when it comes to sports, defining someone simply by race. In football mbappé is not the best because he’s black and messi is not the best because he’s white
@@Lgx-ie4if football doesnt solely rely on physical performance :D
@@thearch4162so you are arguing in favor of superiority guess what so ? Iq test are real and you guys are not very bright ? You cant play physical proof but reject the cognitives ones..and cry racism when it does bother you
Don't forget Luz Long. The German.
Class X icse "My greatest Olympic prize"
~ Jesse Owens!
I’m so proud of this athlete , this was such a bizarre Olympic event though.
Jesse Owens was a Giant !!
1936 was the most powerfulest Olympics ever
Then 3 years later is the beginning of world war 2.
00:36 Luz Long We ICSE students remember you
1936 Olympics is wild but this moment is definitely unforgettable
A Jesse Owens los alemanes lo trataron mejor que los mismos gringos en su propio país. Jesse Owens en Estados Unidos lo tenían apartado por su color de piel.
The greatest track-field in the world 🗺
Awesome. Thank you for who posted this. I am Running my own race. Not quite like this but this was wonderful to see.
The natural sprinter‼️
I'm glad ICSE has the story of Jesse Owens in their literature syllabus. There so much to know about him!
Also Luz Long !!
Iam here after Mr.mourihno said greatest athlete of all time😊
The Legend.
Mack Robinson Silver Medal! Awesome!
Thank you... we steel remember you. Next weak at the track I will smile for you before do sprint.

History is written by the Victor

one of the greatest movie i've seen called "Race"
GOAT. Amazing that he did it before athletes started using steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs.
o owens foi gigante e muito corajoso ❤️❤️
LEGEND.
bro he run so smooth
Heroes who fight to make the world accept differences in the black race that has been oppressed for hundreds of years. even though i am white race i cry with your struggle jesse owens. Races and skin colors exist like a rainbow, because different colors make it beautiful.
Thank you for sharing.
100m 10.36
200m 20.71
Long Jump 7.87
Awesome results 87 years ago
Has any body read Jese Owens story "MY GREATEST OLYMPIC PRIZE"
GOAT
made a GIF from this as no GIFS of the legendary Jesse Owens existed
It's crazy he ran a 10.3 on a dirt track with no starting blocks either
He looked like he wasn't even trying😳
Germany won the games with 86 medals. The United States was 2nd with 56.
Yeah, but thanks to Owens and his colleagues, USA won all the sprints and triple jump; the most exciting and biggest events.
@@wendellbatts2477 Germans still won
@@officerdank4644 Yeah, technically, but they lost the heart of the most serious part of the competition, with the best athletes.
@@wendellbatts2477 still won though
@@wendellbatts2477 exactly! Lol
I am 9th class student . I am don't know who are Jesse Owens my lesson in there Jesse Owens name so go for youtube and searching Jesse Owens know I tell Jesse Owens was a legend ❤️
Fun fact: In the 200m sprint (second race in the video), the black athlete that won silver was Mack Robinson; the brother of Jackie Robinson who broke baseball's color barrier in 1947.
Hiltler looks bamboozled
Awesome, ça du être un moment fantastique !
