This race was not on flat land, so the winning time is not the world record time. The real world record in the mile is 3:43. I am sure people have run miles down mountains faster than 3:27.

Your uncle is a moron. One of the greatest sporting injustices in history was when Ferdinand Di Lima was tackled in the 2004 Olympic marathon while leading after running 20 miles, uphill, in oppressive heat and in the lead. When guys are racing, just cheer, clap or organize your own race.
+William E Lanning Jr I just feel like I've got more in me...I'm 35! Only thing is, I was diagnosed with high BP and a slightly enlarged heart a few years ago and that makes me hold back. Maybe that's a good thing...do you still run?
James Edwards-Marche No... a military career has taken its toll on me. I have a bad back, bad knees, and bad hips (the right one has been replaced... My orthopedic surgeon forbids me from running on it...
I was the organiser of this race, which turned into a 3 race series. 1st race round a horse cinders track, the 2nd on hard sand on a beach when the tide was out....3rd down Queen St. You can all go on about it being down hill....well yes you run faster downhill. But over the 3 years I ran it we had some of the fastest track milers in the world, Olympic Champions including John Walker, who was injured for this race, etc etc so it was a promotional even and worked very well
Guy with the cape who enjoyed a flying start even does a great attempt at actually flying 1:16. Some heroes really do wear capes! Also, love it that he does so good in the race with that funny style of running he has besides wearing a cape!
Altitudes in their country allow them to take in VO2 Max. You know it’s harder to breathe at higher altitudes? Well they train in those altitudes that’s why they exceed every country. And running is a big part of the culture there. Speaking from the perspective of someone who lives in Nigeria.
how long until people stop being surprised that youtube recommends videos and that some of the videos are old? This stupid comment is on every old video with more than a million views.
True: This is the fastest mile a human has ever run. Keep in mind though- It was downhill with no turns. I still think the real fastest mile ever ran was on a track that is flat and exactly 1600 m. which is by Hicham El Guerrouj who ran it at the Olympics in a time of 3:43 Fun fact: 1600 meters isn't a full mile, 1609 is
There is no mile at Olympics. Hicham ran it at Golden League and they always started 9 meters before finish line and it's actual 1609m measured from center of lane 1. It's possible to run slightly less if staying from start to finish on inner part of lane 1.
If u do track, don't read the RUclips comments. You'll feel like shit about your times.😂😂😂 all everyone does is bash about how bad they suck and how much better other kids in their school are
Lennys Meinung Hicham’s 1500m world record is a 3:26. His 1600m world record is a 3:43, like the guy said. It took me about 10 seconds to look up Hicham’s name, click his wikipedia page and look at his records. What kind of drugs are you on and where can I get them?
@@lennydionisius634 Damn, you're wrong on both of those. 3:43 was for the whole mile, and 1600 is not a mile. It is called the mile, as it is 4 laps around a modern track, but a mile is actually closer to 1609. Most highschool kids probably ran the 1600, not a full mile.
this is impressive! my best mile is 6:08.6 and i was exhausted afterwards. granted mine was on a flat track, but im guessing these guys would still be way faster than me on flat ground!
It's actually really hard to run down a hill. I am a sprinter and every time I nearly fall over onto my face when I am going full speed on a flat surface..
@@marcusmaire8197 it’s still big time faster mile cause you don’t have to work as hard if it wasn’t flat courses would have the same time but they don’t they have slower because it’s not down hill

Actually the fastest mile is a photon travelling at the speed of light closely followed by a proton in a particle accelerator which travelled at 99.999999 % of the speed of light
@@diskoeric2248 nope, muons were accelerated to 99.94% the speed of light at an accelerator in america, this was done specifically to lengthen their lifetime due to special relativity, as muons decay very quickly.
@@diskoeric2248 yes but that's missing the point entirely, its the *worlds* fastest mile not the fastest mile in the cosmos. The fastest man-made mile is what i am talking about. If i wasn't then i would just talk about the cosmic rays entering earth or the first beans of light in our solar system, but that's irrelevant
Wow now I wonder how these guys push themselves so hard. Every time I try my best to run the mile under 7 minutes but seriously it is HARDER than I thought it would be since my leg couldn't afford it. Btw my fastest mile time is 7:30.
Running competitively vs recreationally are two different beast. Most competitive runners start training in a regimented fashion when they are about 13-14 years old. Now add 10 more years of serious a goal directed training along with a certain amount of natural ability and you get miles under 4:30. Sub 4;00 miler are in a different category. The guys in the above videos are professional elite runners.
I remember a race where it was one mile downhill... I ran a 3:55. It was like a 1100ft elevation change. My best ever track mile was a 4:13. It's not terrible but I'm hoping to go sub-4 on a track by the end of college. (Being serious, I'm a college runner :P)
4:13 is a solid 1600M time. What were your splits. I also ran NCAA D1 for St Johns University b/w 1990 and 1995. Best 1600m indoors was 4:06 at NC's my 5th (red shirted )year.
You can tell is was an older video when some costumed idiot gets into the race and no one does anything. He did have some great speed and I doubt any police officer could have caught him until he tired. Of course in the USA these days you would get 850 years in prison for a stunt like that, if they did not just shoot you.
Fetty Pebble Nobody shoots anybody unless that somebody is pointing a gun back at them. The fact you'd suggest race as a factor makes you racist your damn self. Ironic, isn't it?
Scary isn't it?! When you see average Joe on a treadmill trying to run at marathon pace and either gas out at 20 seconds or get launched off the back...

wtf? did anyone else catch that one person dressed up as a superhero with a cape and everything xD
Yes I did he even did the superman pose 1 or 2 Times
Actually the fastest mile is a photon travelling at the speed of light closely followed by a proton in a particle accelerator which travelled at 99.999999 % of the speed of light
I bet your fun at parties stealing all them chicks
Someone has never heard of muons
@@diskoeric2248 nope, muons were accelerated to 99.94% the speed of light at an accelerator in america, this was done specifically to lengthen their lifetime due to special relativity, as muons decay very quickly.
Elliot Gregory naw fam. We ain’t talking about experiments. We talking bout real life on earth.
@@diskoeric2248 yes but that's missing the point entirely, its the *worlds* fastest mile not the fastest mile in the cosmos. The fastest man-made mile is what i am talking about. If i wasn't then i would just talk about the cosmic rays entering earth or the first beans of light in our solar system, but that's irrelevant
Billy T James in the red Adidas jacket at the end???
Damn sure looks like it
Lol @ the people saying "I'm 11 and I ran a 3 min mile" or "I'm 12 and I ran a mile in 4:50" like no. Just stop we all know you're faking.
+David Gilbert I'm 2 and i ran a 30 second mile
***** 😂
+Tom Miller It's people like you that need to stop baffling on about good you are. Cause without doing it saying it is POINTLESS #REKT
+Spane Boswell wtf it was obviously a joke. No two year old or any human can run a 30 second mile
12 year olds have run 4:50 for a mile. Look up youth age group world records
I love seeing old videos of Queen Street Auckland back in the day ❤️ now it’s full of hideous modern buildings and homeless people
Humans are so resilient it’s unbelievable. I think humans push themselves to their limits more than any animal.
Wow now I wonder how these guys push themselves so hard. Every time I try my best to run the mile under 7 minutes but seriously it is HARDER than I thought it would be since my leg couldn't afford it. Btw my fastest mile time is 7:30.
Running competitively vs recreationally are two different beast. Most competitive runners start training in a regimented fashion when they are about 13-14 years old. Now add 10 more years of serious a goal directed training along with a certain amount of natural ability and you get miles under 4:30. Sub 4;00 miler are in a different category.
The guys in the above videos are professional elite runners.
Jtadpoll1978 Im 13 and youre 100% right about when we start competing :)
I'm a freshman 15 years old and run a 4:38 mile but yeah it does take a lot of training
Juan Orozco you must be from mcfarland
Everett Anderson no.... just full of shit.
I remember a race where it was one mile downhill... I ran a 3:55. It was like a 1100ft elevation change. My best ever track mile was a 4:13. It's not terrible but I'm hoping to go sub-4 on a track by the end of college. (Being serious, I'm a college runner :P)
that had to make your legs hurt. lol
Thats good work hard. Im 13 and my mile record is 4:56
xhunterforest i had sore calves for days!
4:13 is a solid 1600M time. What were your splits. I also ran NCAA D1 for St Johns University b/w 1990 and 1995. Best 1600m indoors was 4:06 at NC's my 5th (red shirted )year.
I believe my splits were something like 1:05, 1:04, 1:02: 1:02.
This guy can run a mile faster than I can get up in the mornings
Thanks lots our hero eliud kipchoge
1:18 is that Flash cheering up those runners?
I'm on my bed, I literally adjusted my pillow for a lil too long and these guys already ran a mile. What The Fuck. Amazing guys
I don't like how they didn't give superman credit...
1:15 did I heard it wrong? Mike white?
Imagine him now with the Nike Air Zoom Alphafly shoes 🤔
alphafly isn't built for short road races
1:08 What's that water? A fountain?
1:04 PM

Some guy was turned on by those sexy runners
"Downhill"...... that makes me lol literally!
0:14 I'm sorry but they are running down a mountain. This is not a slight slope.
0:57 theirs a unknown runner in the race 😂😂😂😂
I struggle to run a mile under 10 minutes
Ok
But can we just apperciate the mindblowing speed of the camera man
You can tell is was an older video when some costumed idiot gets into the race and no one does anything. He did have some great speed and I doubt any police officer could have caught him until he tired. Of course in the USA these days you would get 850 years in prison for a stunt like that, if they did not just shoot you.
They wouldn't shoot you unless you were black
Fetty Pebble Nobody shoots anybody unless that somebody is pointing a gun back at them. The fact you'd suggest race as a factor makes you racist your damn self. Ironic, isn't it?
He even beat superman 😱
Imagine have El guerrouj ( the mile wr holder ) run this race downhill.
World's faster runner dude falling from space.
I am 2 years old and i ran the mile in 1:59. losers
i was just born 3 minutes ago and i ran a 0:27 mile
Bro I'm a fetus and I can run a mile in 0.03
Casuals. I have yet to be conceived,but I have run the mile in 0.0000000006 milliseconds
@@kyanwang8957 that's nothing I'm a sperm cell and can run the mile in 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000001
Zenethical Sav I don’t even exist as a moment set in history and I can run the mile in 10^-45 seconds
A guy jumped off a 100m tall building the other day. He set the new world record for the 100m.
They're jogging faster than I can sprint
Scary isn't it?! When you see average Joe on a treadmill trying to run at marathon pace and either gas out at 20 seconds or get launched off the back...
