Flo Jo grew up in the projects and in a unsafe area. She is the epitome of starting from the bottom now we here. She will forever be a pure inspiration to me
I don't think people have a problem with anyone trying to better their life or strive for improvement. But there are also the facts she was born with excellent genetics and those born at the finish line have better odds at success than those born at the starting line.
Flo was in tremendous shape, very very disciplined. Confident had good strides strong arm swing and was very confident. The wardrobe didn't make her, it was her being herself. She was the baddest female athlete.
Flo-Jo was the greatest Flo-Jo was a goddess here's a fact in 1988 she was isolated and ostracized she was tested 11 times never failed one she never failed a drug test in her entire career
Today is the 25th anniversary of FloJo's death. She is the only woman to hold 2 athletics world records for more than 35 years. There are people in our world who can do admirable things without any doping. Credit to FloJo. REST IN PEACE❤❤❤❤😢
Men and women were jealous of her. Even to this day. She never doped. They just can't accept a black woman being the fastest woman in the world. Just like one is the best tennis player, a black man is the best golfer...etc.
O yeah, victimhood at its best. Bolt, biles, Felix, Williams sisters . All so devoid of recognition, unbeknownst to the public. All financed by Mainly white, yellow and brownish taxpayers?
For all of those claiming this sista used drugs,she never tested positive for ANY drugs! How would you like to be accused of murder without a shred of evidence?! You wouldn't like it huh? She was just gifted by God PERIOD and she worked hard and was very disciplined and spiritual. Even her autopsy showed NO drugs,so leave my sista alone,HATERS!
This is most asinine comment I've seen.. I suggest you look up people like Victor Conte and other drug experts. Drug testing back then was just an IQ test and a lot of it was thrown under the rug by the Olympic committee. Granted the shouldn't take away from her accomplishments cause most of them were doping at the time she was. She was just willing to take it to the extreme and that's why she paid the price
@@fairisfair2986 it would not surprise me they started calling her cash flow.... There was no millionaire female sprinters before Flo-Jo.. she gave them the blueprint
I literally shed a test when you said she the fastest woman of all time..... I'm so proud to be a woman..... Thx you Flo Jo..... I know this may be an ignorant comment but I did know nothing about you at all until today a few minutes ago
Blimey - I'm staggered that this sort of Flo-Jo coverage continues - she won because of the drugs - she died because of the drugs .... is this official Olympics® guff?

@Weghweh Hwewehwhe lol

She started running late & still broke records just like that. Ok.
The greatest athlete who ever lived period

I agree 100%
Tiger is "Caublasian" and doesn't even see himself as black.
Nobody asked
I think she did

Son of Sammy Davis why do people like you never let black women be great LET HER WIN
@@ziondly bruh your ignorant to this whole subject. Stop being so stereotypical. The only person who cares about the color of her skin is YOU
You know who also didn't fail a test, Marion Jones...a runner who even now admits she was doping couldn't get anywhere near Flo-Jo's
@@flatoutflatbroke exactly LOL.
Wish she was still alive RIP😢💙💚💛💜💖😍
She was a godness on the track and field may she rest in power.

Ty Iyona hi
GOAT of womens doping. She paid the price tho
@TheSpammons rephrased that please lol?
@@sonofsammydavis2751 you are special type of low life ignorant you're dumb your mama don't want you and your daddy don't claim you a loser
Legend

Rip Flo-Jo 🙏🏾🙏🏾
2:09 Auntie Dee Dee won three (3) gold medals, and two (2) silver medals in Seoul. ... not four (4) gold medals
Greatness
I think she was a great woman who was faster than the rest. Much respect to Flojo R.I.P. and that comes from a white boy
Troy Sterling okay?
What does you being white have to do with your comment?
eman X I think he thinks it’s a privilege to have a white boy approve of you or we should be honored😕
@@egprbell i know right. He thinks his comment is worth more than others just because he is white. What a narcissistic bum.
eman X 😂right
she won 3 gold medals in 1988, not 4
I loved the one legged suit, very cool....btw What do you call a 1 legged Irish Woman?.....Eileen....c'mon you know you want to laugh at that.
Just remember to be relaxed and to give your 100 percent. And do exactly what the doctor says.
Four words to describe this video...elephant in the room.
TheSpammons go get up and even try to get under the 15s in the 100
What's the elephant?
baby got back

You made a mistake. She won 3 gold medals, not four
Laces, fluorescents... a diaper...
A fashionable one at that ;)
World Records with Doping...
Did she really doped 😳
@@chelseaibe3718 Hundreds of tests have been done on her and not even a single one resulted positive
@@lorenzoperitore7595 Marion Jones didn't fail any either.
СКАЗКИ СКАЗКИ....... БЛА БЛА БЛА.....
Blimey - I'm staggered that this sort of Flo-Jo coverage continues - she won because of the drugs - she died because of the drugs .... is this official Olympics® guff?
true
She died because of a congenital brain defect. Get your facts straight.
Don't think anything about Flo Jo should be celebrated. Cheated the sport
Richard Fairs Got proof?
Speedy Gonzalez 10.49 being hugely out of reach of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Price is pretty good evidence
I guess you think all those East German records are legit too.
baze187 Did she fail a drugs test?
Plenty of athletes who later confessed to doping never failed a test.
You think the outfit at 3.12 is because of Flo Jo? Wow....
천재

Richard Fairs 3:12 is almost the end of the video????😹
F flo joke - clown
2nd
To absolutely none
Bad example for young. Record not true

horrible taste, too kitsch, no sense in giving her credits just because she was an outstanding athlete, come on!
