Unbelievable talent this guy was way ahead of his time, with all of today's technology and advancements in sports science, still no one can beat his record, truly amazing
My favourite Olympic video ever. I come back to it regularly and still feel emotional. Hicham El Guerrouj is the greatest 1500M/Miler I have ever seen, and not a bad 5,000M as well. Bernard Lagat is a class act as well, and I have huge respect for him for his generosity to Hicham. They both had tremendous respect for each other and it showed. Bruce McAvaney's commentary and the music choice are just brilliant. He still holds the world record time: "Each lap run during the men's world-record race of 3:26.00, run by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco in 1998, averaged just under 55 seconds per lap."
I was in Athens, unfortunately not in the stadium, but the Heineken bar I was at, the whole placed stopped to watch this race.....and cheered and celebrated the finish. "He goes from the greatest never, to the best of all time!" 4 days later he became a Dual Olympic Gold Medalist.
His story and Messi are so similar, both of them are the greatest of all time and although they failed twice, they never give up. One of the best moments of Olympics. After two final at the third one during last 100 meter falling behind and winning the race, what a mental strength. Thank you Hicham, greatest 1500m/1mile runner of all time.
I'm missing some Spaniard on that list, an Olympic champion beating Morcelli, I grew up watching them too. Fermin Cacho's sprints were something else. Good list nevertheless.
El guerrouj is absolutely the most dominant runner that ever lived , forget the world titles the records but the races he won and the number of times he ran world record pace races is unmatched , winning more than 80 1500m races , 30 of them under 3:30 is mind blowing . History will always remember him as the best ever
Hicham Filahi not even close , I’m talking about the 1500m . No one ever dominated the 1500 like elguerrouj did . Plus elguerrouj had the ability to dominate other distances but he chose to focus on the 1500
@@hichamrocks Aouita chicken out to face Seb Coe in the 1500 Olympics. Hicham is better but if it wasn't for Aoutita we wouldn't have had many runners that came from Morroco and Algeria thay looked up to him
We Moroccans are proud of him for achieving what others thought was impossible for him at first, he fell down, stepped up and he showed them that he could! 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
A brilliant race combined with brilliant commentary...."can he go from champion to legend......he is coming back....he is a Legend...he goes from the greatest never to the best of all time". So very aptly put.....brilliant running and commentary.

Even thé commentator was a légend. Last word of el guerrouj from that commentator IS. He IS a legend . Another one Said with excitelent HE GOT IT
До слёз! Хишам - величайший бегун на 1500 метров. Но не забудем и Бернарда Лагата, который так и не стал Олимпийским чемпионом, проиграв дуэль Хишаму на финишной прямой, но именно он обнимал Хишама после финиша. У него большое и доброе сердце...
These is the Best 1500 Meters Race 🏃♂️.What a Run from Hicham El Guerrouj and a perfect Finish 🇦🇱and he is the best Marrocco Runner Ever. Inspiring Race and a Amazing Video with soundtrack from Gladiator 🏆🙏. Tanks 🥇
I was in my brother's house and I remember that I jumped by happiness and break a lamp... This is one of the most memorable moment in my 'sport' life as a lot of Moroccan
It costed Hicham more than 8 years to get the double gold Medaille in the Olympics Athens 2004 (1500m & 5000m). After falling and failure, it was hard nightmare than turned into a dream. Hicham’s soul and goal to win was stronger, than what ever happened to him in the past. He never give up, because he saw his victory already in his mind. That’s a character of legend….The Goat…Hicham el Guerrouj.
Great commentary. I never get tired of watching and listening to this. El Guerrouj leads, Lagat, Estevez, Wendimu, Heshko, Boulahfane and then Kiptanui……………

I cried the day I watched this race when he won. He wanted this so badly after doing everything else. And it was so emotional.when he finally got the one that had eluded his other worldly talent. For so long.
Bruce McAvaney is one of the greats when it comes to calling. It's only right to listen to his call when watching this great moment. I got goosebumps even though I knew the result!
Have watched this video no less than 30 times already. 2 things stand out. 1. Something kicked inside El Gerrouj in the final moments where he knew what exactly could happen and he was ready. 2. Silva's last lap is freaking unbelievable. Still can't get over his last lap. He overcame atleast 8 top runners in that last lap!

Great clip. Great athlete. And great commentary. I had no clue about the story but the commentary made me instantly understand. "Greatest ever. Or greatest never... to win Olympic 1500m". It's like Lionel Messi. The greatest of all time without the world cup.
I have lived in Finland all my life and as a young boy cheered for Lasse Viren to win. And did he deliver! But this Hichams race is the most important Olympic race for me. He SO DESERVED this victory.

Even thé commentator was a légend.
Last word of el guerrouj from that commentator IS. He IS a legend . Another one Said with excitelent HE GOT IT
До слёз! Хишам - величайший бегун на 1500 метров. Но не забудем и Бернарда Лагата, который так и не стал Олимпийским чемпионом, проиграв дуэль Хишаму на финишной прямой, но именно он обнимал Хишама после финиша. У него большое и доброе сердце...
لاغات قلبه كبير . صديق هشام في التداريب أجزم انه فرح لهشام من قلبه و يريد له الميدالية الاولمبية و هشام يستحقها
Encore une hypocrite française dans les barrages ! 666 fuck
حج00ز
Lacat already win one in 2000 he is rhe one who won it against Hicham elgerrouge
These is the Best 1500 Meters Race 🏃♂️.What a Run from Hicham El Guerrouj and a perfect Finish 🇦🇱and he is the best Marrocco Runner Ever. Inspiring Race and a Amazing Video with soundtrack from Gladiator 🏆🙏. Tanks 🥇
I was in my brother's house and I remember that I jumped by happiness and break a lamp...
This is one of the most memorable moment in my 'sport' life as a lot of Moroccan
C'est la seule finale que tu peux la regarder 100 fois et tu auras 100 fois d'émotions, vraiment EL Geroouj est un grand champion.
Je suis avec tou
The final lap of the bronze medalist is insane :o from the back of the crew to third. Awesome kick !
Rui Silva
increible remontada mis respetos para este super atleta
According to wikipedia, Silva's (from Portugal) last lap was 51.3 secs! Insane!
Yuriy Borzakovskiy
Yes silva is great performance from last one to third is awesome
What a legend ,definitely needs a movie ...He was an inspiration for me and all my generation .What a champ!
Must have watched this video 50 times. Legendary in every aspect, including the commentary....
It costed Hicham more than 8 years to get the double gold Medaille in the Olympics Athens 2004 (1500m & 5000m). After falling and failure, it was hard nightmare than turned into a dream. Hicham’s soul and goal to win was stronger, than what ever happened to him in the past. He never give up, because he saw his victory already in his mind. That’s a character of legend….The Goat…Hicham el Guerrouj.

متى نشوف كروج آخر ؟
Fawaz Alsharif I love my country morocco
Fawaz Alsharif والله يا اخي ألعاب القوى المغربية تراجعت جدا للاسف
هشام الكروج بطل حقيقي. أنا أحب الطريقة التي يحارب بها مخاوفه. هشام شخصية استثنائية. ما شاء الله ، بعد كل فوز ينحني إلى الله العلي القدير.
يمكن لك رؤية رياضي ما و لكن مثل هشام لن تراه أبدا و تذكر كلامي هذا
عندما يتوقف تصنيع الصابونة ☻
Remember watching this and crying I named my son Hicham. Legend you made us moroccans so proud.
my name is also Hicham, i like all persons named with this name
@@hichamelyassami1718 My name is Donald Trump
Great commentary. I never get tired of watching and listening to this. El Guerrouj leads, Lagat, Estevez, Wendimu, Heshko, Boulahfane and then Kiptanui……………
من الجزائر قلبي تطرطق في اللحظات الاخيرة اول مرة نشوف هذ السباق الان 2021 حمد الله هشام و خاوتنا
تحية من الجزائر الى البطل العالمي هشام قروج

+Samia Meknasi الاخ الجزائري مدح الگروج وقال كلام جميل عادي دائما لواحد يغلط في حرف گ مع ق زائد حرف گ غير موجود في العربية حتى الجزائريين كانو يقولو لمجيد بوگرة، بوقرة
I cried the day I watched this race when he won. He wanted this so badly after doing everything else. And it was so emotional.when he finally got the one that had eluded his other worldly talent. For so long.
🤣 beautiful moment I was 18 years. nice summer for hicham and for all Moroccans and lovers of hicham . IL mérite le champoin
Greatest middle distance runner will inspire generation's to come
Bruce McAvaney is one of the greats when it comes to calling. It's only right to listen to his call when watching this great moment. I got goosebumps even though I knew the result!
Inediblehulk Special
Have watched this video no less than 30 times already. 2 things stand out.
1. Something kicked inside El Gerrouj in the final moments where he knew what exactly could happen and he was ready.
2. Silva's last lap is freaking unbelievable. Still can't get over his last lap. He overcame atleast 8 top runners in that last lap!
Brilliant comment.
Silvas run is Nutty
I was just about to say, Silva was flying on that last lap. Passed so many people to get third
Silva last 800m 1.46
The storyline, the race, the commentary, the music.. all unbelievably good. This video will go down as one of the best of all times
I keep coming back to this race and having chills and tears to my eyes..
هذا السباق عظيم مين بقات 100 متر الأخيرة و كيب لاغاط دخل بقوة و كان رايح يربح السباق و كأن الكروج تذكر سقوط أطالنطا و خسارة سيدني و جاتو قوة دفع كبيرة فاز بيها ، تحية للإخوة لمغاربة خوكم جزايري
لا تستسلم مطلقا
Never give up
هشام الكروج في اللحظة الأخيرة كان سيخسر ولكنه لم يستسلم أبدا وقاوم وزاد من سرعته وفاز
فعلا سباق عظيم.. سباق لتاريخ للأجيال في صبر لمقاومة لأخر نفس.. القروج أسطورة..
كيب لاغاط عداء اخر
هادا برنارد لاغات
هذا الفيديو يصيبني بالقشعريرة التبوريشة ملي كانشوف الكروج كايبكي فاش كاطلع الراية دالمغرب شكرا للكروج ولكل غيور على هذا الوطن
wey no mames no entiendo
أنا أبكي 😭
كنشكر هشام الكروج بهدا الإنجاز العظيم
The race took place in the homeland of Olympics and Marathon, Greece.Great athlete, indeed...
Great clip. Great athlete. And great commentary. I had no clue about the story but the commentary made me instantly understand.
"Greatest ever. Or greatest never... to win Olympic 1500m". It's like Lionel Messi. The greatest of all time without the world cup.

I have never seen anyone on the final 100 meters get passed and then come back and win. That's determination
Came back after el bakalli won the gold medal.. the moroccans always top!
It's 2023 and Hicham El Guerrouj is still the greatest 1500m runner of all time with a record of 3:26:00.
واخا تجي 2070 مستحيل شي واحد يجري تحت 3.26
nope. nothing but a steroids cheater
@@John-kq9oo Should I call this jealousy or hate? Moroccans never cheat in sports competitions because we're always the best.
He’s a doper and a cheater and a fraud. And a terrorist
@@John-kq9oou are a bucket full of cheating,,,and u think everyone s like u.
I have lived in Finland all my life and as a young boy cheered for Lasse Viren to win. And did he deliver!
But this Hichams race is the most important Olympic race for me. He SO DESERVED this victory.

Absolutely amazing race and amazing sportsmanship and mutual respect! Above all Hicham was a magnificent, beautiful runner!
His story is incredible it's like a movie. We should educate our children from this example never give up. Unlucky in the first games, stressed and didn't sleep during three nights in the second games and won in the third games. Thank you for this video
أحسن الأيام و عشنا هاد اللحظة بكل تفاصيلها مع هشام الكروج 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
How wonderful to hear again the passion, experience and knowledge of Bruce McAvaney. The best ever calling the best ever. Inspiring and simply brilliant.

تحية كبيرة لبطلنا الكبير هشام الكروج دائما في قلوبنا
What can be said after such outstanding performance...just beauty.
Greatest & the best of all time. Love by an American from Somalia 🇸🇴. Viva Hicham El Guerrouj
الاسطورة المغربية ولد بركان هشام رفعتي راسنا عالي ياهشام شكرا بزززاف 😢
شخصيا احترم مسيرته كتيرا دائما أعيد جميع فديواته ....كنت نتمنى ينخرط في المجتمع المدني و يستتمر في الشرق و يجلب مستتمرين و لكن كتبقى حريته الشخصية ...و يبقى شخص خلوق و محترم كيف اصحاب ساكنة الشرق .....
How sweet it is? He goes from greatest never to best of all time.
What a perfect comment from commentator?
Hicham El Guerrouj you are absolutely true legend.
Quite a remarkable performance.
That day we were all watching this run .
All thz family in front of the tv supporing him .. legend ♥️ ..

Too awesome. This is one of the greatest Olympic moments hands down. Amazing

يعتبر هذا هو أسرع سباق 1500 متر على مر التاريخ وصاحبه هشام الكروج صمد الرقم القياسي لمدة 19 سنة لحد الآن ولم يحطمه أي أحد، كم انت كبير يا هشام
ليس في هادا السباق
كان دالك في روما 1998 بتوقيت 3.26.00😊
El Guerrouj ran magnificently. Lagat shows why he is loved and respected by all athletes, due to his dignity, compassion and great sportsmanship. Every race I have seen Lagat in he has shown the same affection and respect for his opponents. Well done both of them.
المغرب تجيب غير أبطال ❤🇩🇿

What blows my mind is the determination of this amazing athlete. The look on his face says it all.
I very much hope our Morocco will have another Hisham el guerrouj in the future
because he's certainly a legend the greatest of all time. he went from the greatest never to the best of all time.the guy certainly gave our Kenyan and Ethiopian brothers hard time his will to win was unbelievable incomparable and matchless.
I come back to watch this video thousands of time. HIS FALL BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES.
This has to be the greatest 1500m race ever.
The best for ever
Probably the best ever there would never be like hicham and Bernard
Never ever gave up. And he got and deserved Gold !
That clip with EL G and BL hugging is amazing and a wonderful moment of true sportsmanship.
Sometimes I feel I come back to this for the commentary, as much as for the race itself!
Hicham! No words to describe what he did !
Silva, in the last 400 meters, from 8th to 3rd, legendary run of the portugues
Silva ran the fastest last lap.
The king and Master of 1500 m ever seen,Thanks god he is Moroccan from my country and I’m very proud .
I'm jealous.. he is a true God.. king ...a space to breathe and get it done
And I'm jealous not to be Moroccan!!!!
@@DavidGarcia-h5lWatch that fight make dreams real it’s a good vibes. Thanks Hicham.
as a moroccan this was a moment that defined my chidlhood he will always be my favorite moroccan athlete and to top it he is the nicest guy you can meet from what my mom who met him told me
Utterly brilliant narrative - and the tears of emotion at the end of it ... 12 years of running towards this almost unreachable goal.
i've seen this video a hundred times. The music is wonderful! El Guerrouj fabulous!
I come back to watch this every so often, it is one of my favorite Olympics races. The path Hicham El Guerrouj took to get his gold was inspirational and he deserved it so very much. I hope he inspires future generations to believe that anything is possible.
I'm honored to see this in my lifetime. Incredible
شاهدة هذا السباق عدة مرات و لم اكره منه ، اعظم و اقوى سباق شاهدته في حياتي ، يدل على قوة و حنكة و صمود و صبر و مقاومة البطل الاسطورة هشام القروج ، مفخرة و بطل قومي اعتبره قدوة و ملهما لكل شاب عربي طموح ، كم اكن الاحترام لهذا البطل الخلوق هشام ، تحية من اخ جزاءري للاخوة المغاربة سلام.
سباق عظيم ياأخي.. لن نمل منه.. نعم التحدي والصبر.. هشام الكروج بطل عالمي ألمبي.. طريقته في الجري ذكية. كافح ووصل..
