Looks like Xiang was the only runner who did not knock down any hurdles. Tremendous discipline and muscle memory.
he seldom hit the hurdles during his entire career. that was his technique. not touching the hundles ensures constant high speed.
LOL the hundles
muscle memory😂😂😂😂
The guy in the last lane did the hurdles perfectly but wasn’t fast enough
He can definitely control himself delicately
There's a guy who went out there and wore his countries colours with pride and brought honour upon himself and his country . One of the greatest athletes in history this guy deserves so much respect
Couldn't agree more. That was absolute gold. What a moment.
not only countries, the whole Asia
I'm sorry but some asian countries are still implementing racism to east asians, especially the chinese, so only for china not for the whole asia @@soshelp4085
my favorite athlete. love you champ. love from India.
he is handsome

🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
Are u currently working in Malaysia Saravanan.?
He is the hero of asia
one of the greatest moments in olympics history
Agreed. This is easily up in my top 5 although lol it might be because this was my first watched olympics as a kid 😂
Either way Liu Xiang's win was so exhilarating
I agree. That gave me chills. I don't know why it has such a strong impact on me but it does....I love it.
His reaction as he crosses the finish line is iconic
Series feuilletons turqued
Nesma tv
That was stunning. Gives me chills, what an athlete. Love from NZ.
I remember watching this live and thinking during the twelve seconds..."Can he really do it? Am I really witnessing history here?" Then he crossed the finish line first; I was more excited for him than stunned. What a run!
I think I remember getting teared up about him winning.
Dude, that was an incredible moment in Olympic history. One of my favourites. Gives me chills. Love from NZ.
LIu xiang you are our honor forever
what makes this even more remarkable is zero hurdle fell on his lane; where others toward their last hurdles are lowering on hurdle to catch up and hence basically dragging the hurdles, he was still hurdling high.
Good observation
He should have won more major titles, he was unlucky with injuries and getting hit by his rivals!
thrillamf Under pressure he was the best I ever saw(except maybe Lee Calhoun).In an event like the 100 it is probably harder to set an Olympic record than a world record due to the pressure to make it thru the heats and finish the final.
also China and the Chinese government were putting him in the spotlight and there was so much pressure that he felt he couldn’t do it he next Olympic Games so he ended up walking off
@@emmaxiang7431 No, he had a chronic Achilles inflammation. He actually won gold in Athens despite this injury - the injury had been intermittently flaring up since 2001. Unfortunately he pulled his Achilles in 2008 and thus required a 13-month surgery and recovery.
@@emmaxiang7431 Yes! Being an Olympian got a lot of lights on you, and with that amount of pressure, you're geared to win or your life will go downhill.
So, with the amount of pressure on him, it was way heavier than Athens, Greece.
被對手2次打手那次世界田徑錦標賽決賽真的很冤，到手的金牌飛了，唯一可以安慰的是，那位既是對手也是「朋友」的外國名將，最後被取消金牌，劉翔遞補為銀牌。
无论看多少次，都会热泪盈眶！！！ 真的不容易！！！
Or is 12.91 !
This guy is incredible,he didn't even knock down a single hurdle!
fantastic 110m Hurdles final
It brought me to tears when I came across the moment again in 2021. Such a great athlete!
Me too my friend, and I'm from NZ. I thought it was absolutely stunning. Classic Olympic moment.
Historical win in Olympic history. Liu Xiang is the proud of all Asia!
the dude ran like his life depended on it....glad he won!
if he lose the government is killing him lol. jk
olympians all run like there wont be any sunsets left on that day
Like every other athlete. Have you ever devoted yourself to something that every time you succeed, it's no surprise? c'mon.
Well China is a communist country like North Korea so yeah
@@AtlanteanVrilChad 😶wow...just awesome reply. Brilliant.
How old are you btw? I guess 11
Respect from S. Korea
But he is from China
@@felixchoi5581Don't you understand English? Shame on you
@@andywong5161 but I speak Chinese I don't speak English my English is bad
As an asian myself, Liu Xiang was my inspiration for track hurdling, and still is. I look up to him greatly, and his falls and injuries are just a reminder of how important it is for athletes to stay safe.
Watching this now, I can't help bursting out my tears. Liu Xiang, you are always the champion in my heart.
Oh my gosh, having form like that at 6’2” is unbelievable, what a skilled athlete
he never missed HURDLE,,THIS WAS THE FASTEST ASIAN MAN I HAVE EVER SEEN,,AND TIED THE WORLD RECORD,,,AMAZING.
Asians!!!
I watched this live and was totally blown away with this athlete magnificent performance.. he made it look easy..
I was very happy when Liu Xiang won in 2004!
So did Andrea~
Yes, Me too, more than happy, since I rarely ever see an Asian Man compete in Track and Field before he did, and if there was one, I don't think it could be compared to this win.
中国永远的骄傲。Forever pride for China.
Well done china
亚洲之光 ASIA STAR!
pround to be Chinese!!! He is hero for Chinese, for Asian!
***** he stands for the race.
+ton jusel so what
+ton jusel salty funny man
***** of all the flavors in the world, dumb racists only pick SALT, btw, learn more english and try to make your comment logical and readable :)
I know i just love being chinese!
An asian man winning a gold medal in track is like a black man winning a gold medal in table tennis
lmao so true
Haha 😆
hahah
not exactly
just winning a gold medal in short track
More like a black man winning a gold medal in diving.
Really historical. Can't describe my feelings watching this moment =)
僕が世界で一番好きな選手。
One of the most inspiring athletes of our time.
That decade belonged to him.
rui zhang no
Celebration ruined by bad organization ... You don't run the 110m hurdles final without the track being completely available for a parade celebration... A javelin thrower right in the way.
i was a hurdler. love it and the sport. but Liu n Colin J & so many others just took it a step further. beautiful
I remember I cried so badly 😭 our hero, proud to be Chinese.
Seeing such agility and determination makes me proud to be human.
That gives me chills....What a moment. What an athlete, that was not even close really. 2nd place was close, not 1st place. Legend. Made his country proud that day.
He give me joy and put tear in my eye even 17 years later. Thank you my hero!
Xiang deserves a star in the sky of great athletes
Did anyone realize lane 1 knocked down every single hurdle.😳
Vera Du He didn't knock the first one down
Vera Du at least he didn't get dead last XD
Vera Du He was trained to do so, and he failed the training for the first hurdle.
looks-like-kristof the guy who came last was very unfortunate, he was tagging Xiang every step until the lasst.
+Taxidermistification yeah, he could have won a silver. Thats a heart break moment.
man's a legend forever. he was such a hero for me when I was in high school. good days
Amazing moment when I watched it at 2004. How he wins and celebrates made me shiver and smile. Hope London 2012 he does it again ....
Proud to be a Liu
He is the proud of China
Heartbreak for Doucoure (looks like he was on track to finish 2nd; World Champion the next year, but never medaled in the Olympics). Fantastic from Liu.
No matter how he performed this time, He has been a legend already, I am proud of him!!!
I was so praying for him to win and was super happy when he won... Great Sprinter....
12 years later still get emotional when watching this .. I totally remember the moment I stood in front of the tv, screaming and cheering, when I was 10.
I was watching this LIVE, I was shock when he won. Truly A Great Moment for Him, Now He will be remembered as ONE OF THE GREAT in Asia.
This was the first Olympic event I had ever seen and I have watched all Olympics since then (almost every event that was televised,each day) , I probably started playing more of sports because of this. Thank you Liu Xiang
He turned on the afterburners at that last bit... really well done and I'm happy to see some front slow mo - you can see every ounce of energy being exerted.
He's our hero, ever
The pride of Asia!
he created the history for the Asian people
One of my favorite athletes！
I remember watching this live and cried. Thanks for being such an inspiration Liu Xiang.
I've never seen someone so happy
Doge Decoco all olympic athletes are nobodys after their success except a handful (Bolt, Mo Farah, flo jo). Everyone else is a nobody
all those years of hard work, expectations and pressures, many would have cried there
love liu xiang
I am so proud of you!
That's an great honor
You mean that's a great honor! The n is extra, no need
Won without felling any of the hurdles. Incredible stuff!!
You are Amazing XIANG!!
It is very irony. When Usain Bolt won the 100m race, no one stopped him from running around the stadium to celebrate. How can another event handled on the same time when the main event track event ongoing? He just about to celebrate his winning, and the official stopped him but no one stopped Usain Bolt. LoL. Seems unfair. Just saying
))
I think its because they were doing something with the javelin throws
dude there could have been a chance of some sort of javelin injury lol
***** word I think he was gonna get in the way of the javelin thrower
Beruk Bogel Dummy,this was 2004 Athens,Bolt's was 2008 Beijing.
0:37 Dat Javelin dude be like "chill out bro!"
Salute to this man, he try his best and won
This was a perfect hurdles with an olympic record.
I will feel proud of you forever!
Love the celebration, the pure joy of a breakthrough.
his start was incredible
he was the best and will be the best...
Wei Song 'and will always be the best'
i watched this video more than 10 times ,what a performance!
One of the happiest olypic winners
到目前為止，這場比賽是歷史上最精采的奧運110米欄決賽。
He didn't just win he absolutely annihilated the others!
i am from india and i really liked the achievement of liu xiang
He is my hero !!
A true legend
Come into tears. My proud nation!
Gotta love how much it means to him
he had a fantastic start.
Marvelous run! Hearty Congrats, Liu!
'ive never seen a more deserved winner!
liu xiang is the man! such a great athlete.
It's a shame Liu Xiang was really unlucky with lots of injuries during his career. He could have gone on to win so much more. Roll on 2015 when he makes his comeback.
vXRoscoXv Performance enhancing drugs is why he was "unlucky" with injuries. His tendons couldn't cope with the load put on them by his leg muscles which were stronger than his natural body, tendons don't get bigger and stronger with Performance drugs but muscles do.
"Hero" is not enough to convey your contribution. You are the greatest Chinese Athlete of all time. Thank you forever!
Come back, we love you. Don't push yourself, to be the original status without pressure. That's YOU!
Amazing...!
best of luck to him, get well soon liu!
love you!
Incredibly flawless performance. It is so sad that he wasn't able to compete in 2008 in his home country.
Wait why
+Yoyocube injury. He also missed the 2012 Olympics because of that.
+Shaoyu Wang :c
I almost down-voted because of that disappointment... Would have been a fairy tale
Someone tell me what happened
Just amazing!!!!
truly inspirational athlete
gives me chills.
0:39 that guy stopped him lmao
bcoz of javelin throw concurs guess;)
they managed to hold hands too lmao
Love it!
Who came here to watch this after Grant Holloway? Liu Xiang is my favourite!
He is my absolute hero. Incredible!
love him, truthfully, Tears in my eyes that his career has been hindered by injuries. Glad he married the woman he loves, tho.
Arcadian Lee ...
Arcadian Lee 你是说裤裆藏手雷的葛大小姐吗。。。。
@@aazplus9534 为什么说她裤裆藏手雷呢？
