@@cullyx2913 A statement from FloJo and her husband, Al Joyner: “I know exactly what people say about me,” he said. "And that's just not true." I don't need to use drugs. If they want, they can come for testing every week of the year. I have nothing to hide." Her husband says all the talk boils down to jealousy. He said his wife's astonishing gains are the result of being "trained as a man." He added: “We bought a $150 leg exerciser and he did leg rolls every night. Over 20 pounds every night to add strength to your legs. He worked 12 hours a day.” Only those who have nothing to hide say so. Do 12 hours of leg training a day for months and you'll set the world record "Florence Griffith-Joyner, Tellez and Bob Kersee denied the allegations, but Florence Griffith-Joyner did not pursue legal action. The accuser questioned Robinson's motives, as she received $50,000 for an interview with Stern and $10,000 for an appearance on NBC's Today show . to discuss the matter." Darell Robinson was a frustrated personality with a hint of jealousy, a slight desire for revenge, because he himself could not succeed. Materiality played an additional role in his motivation. He is a completely untrustworthy person with empty words and zero evidence. FloJo's death was caused by an epileptic seizure due to a congenital brain disorder, sadly drowned RIP❤ 😭
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❤❤❤❤❤😢
Flo Jo strides are insane. Her strides changes at about 50 miter or so where she extends her legs and powers through. She was ahead of her time. Love watching her.
She would run 10.35 with today tehnology and nutrition! People only talk about steroids and dont see her perfect tehnique! So all of these today top sprinters could have any chance!
Right...I've noticed this also! Her stride actually does change somewhere around that area, where she gives a little tiny bit more knee lift, and she's kicking her toes out, as well as reaching her arms very far forward to match the legs. This leg action looks like something that will cause most folks to pull a hamstring, because it heavily relies upon the hamstring to pull her forward. There is so much to this technique I'm thinking I truly don't believe she was doping...her mechanics and plan of execution are so advanced, drugs simply cannot create this situation on their own. With the shoes and track surfaces we have today, especially with a drive phase, this woman would be running 10.3 today.
Flo Jo...was definitely on streiods. No wonder she died at 36. An Olympic athlete dying at 36?!!! I am 53...and I smoke and drink....and I survived her by a long shot. Drugs kill. And she is the epitome of it. I don't respect her. Drug cheat...who never got caught.
no other sprint record in modern aths has ever been improved by 3 metres at once...no-one...it's impossible.......do you get it now dummy?......so you're the waffler.......she's a drug cheat...eos
Man I'm loving these classic Olympic events. The athletes are tremendous! I love the commentators as well. Just calling the action... not talking about personal bull, etc.
Everyone should have at least one glorious day in the sun, be it at work or play...three gold medals and a silver not to mention record setting performances...this was destined to be Flo Jo's special day.😊
It's frightening though,the fact that some Americans would call into question these times that our Jamaican Athletes have been producing in recent years,even though Athletes today have to go through far more rigorous testing than back in those days..probably we'd be surprised if these types of testing were available back then..a mean,just look at Marion Jones for example...#justsaying
@@dwaynegraham7210 dude you are going to get that whenever records are broken. This year there were way more records broken in track vs 88. Some were very old WR's, OR's, many Personal Bests. It's going to be....doping for sure, the super fast tracks, the super spikes, athletes today can go pro right out of high school so they can train all the time vs work due to being sponsored and paid,. the coaching is better, the meets designed for WR's with the rabbits and the new pacing lights.. endless. Elaine T-H has the best shot at breaking these WR's and I would love it. Just because she breaks FloJo's records doesn't alter FloJo's legendary status. I was there in 88 watching it all happen in real time. FloJo transcended track and brought excitement to the womens side with her high fashion, looks, wild sexy outfits, the hair, the full body suits with the cap, the smile and joy while running... She captured the worlds attention just like Bolt did for the same reason...the IT factor besides the WR's. We just had the games..did anyone capture the worlds attention (not just track fans) like Bolt did for so many years or FloJo in 88. Think not. They transcended the track world to elevate the excitement which pulled people in. FloJo was an even bigger cultural phenom then she was on the track. I think the track world has wasted bolt after he retired. The sport needed him as an ambassador. FloJo predated Jones but I remember after her insane WR at the trials all eyes, doctors, testers, skeptics...were on her like clue. She was tested and re-tested then it got even worse after the games because of Ben Johnson. There was more testing. She was later tested during the autopsy after her career and life were long over. how about innocent until proven guilty but now it is everyone is guilty no matter the testing.
@@TheRedprasad YES. Tragic. A deal with the devil always ends in tragedy. But the devil kept its end of the bargain. Took her soul from Seoul to hell so her OR and WR still stand like no other
Flo jo was pure perfection if you wasn't around to see her you really missed the greatest woman sprinter of all time she was second to none RIP QUEEN 🙏🏿
@@michaelmorgan5677 I completely agree with you. It doesn't take a genius to look at Flo jos track history and see what results she was bringing out. Half a second faster from her best time???? Oh yeah that was all legit NOT.
@@FionaMacdonald-p9pShe was good at hitting those steroids during those drug testing idiot lol. She never tested positive if She did prove it fool. Do you see her perfect form and mechanic running? Lol, keep speculating because you lack critical thinking. By the way, how come the others women who took steroids couldn’t beat her ? Lol, you still got have the technics and mechanic to be an efficient runner lol.
Even given the widespread assumption that the whole field was doped up - making it an "equal" playing field - she still had the best technique which is why she won; her ability to maximize the efficiency of her front-end mechanics is why she increased the gap at the end. Sha'carri Richardson best demonstrates how effective the "flo-jo technique" is towards the end of the race. Elaine Thompson as well. People assume every pro athlete is on something illegal, but find real joy in 'canceling' the winners on that basis. Makes no sense.
I was at many track meets and witnessed Flo-Jo run these record races. The women sprinters today are good, but once you've seen athletes of the caliber of Flo Jo and Ashford, from back in the day, it's hard to be impressed!
@@timelessvickdamone you people and your silly speculation with zero proof whatsoever. She's been tested for steroid use tons before, during, and even had her body examined after death...no signs of use whatsoever. Juice does NOT create her mechanics...it only makes folks much stronger. She had brilliant mechanics...please explain to me what her mechanics and excution have to do with juice?
Were you at the back of the line when brains were handed out? Every “female” in that final shaved more often than most blokes. Roid runners would be more appropriate.
@21:45. The smiling so far out from the finish line during an Olympic final demonstrate just how technically perfect and relax she was with absolutely no stress or ugly face like so many sprinters of the past and especially the current. Then One and Only Flo-Jo.
@@camboriuense10 lol yea, I dont think the general public has any idea of the huge epidemic of PEDs in elite athletics. They have no idea of how long they've been used, and how many elite athletes use them which is just about all of them...I'd say 85%, and the other 15% never get within the top 100 in their sport so they don't even know them. Wasnt it Katt William's that made the joke about how the athletes keep getting bigger and stronger and faster the older they get and no one even cares to realize that's not how it works? Theres this interview with Usain Bolt and the reporter is asking him about the very suspicious times the Jamaican track team did and he got soo mad at her for asking but then again didnt come straight out and deny they were doing PEDs either. Lol who is that cyclist Hamilton something that came out with how the US team doctor walked around with a fisherman's vest on (you know the vests with about 50 different little pockets) and all the pockets had a different PED in them and everyone on the team was using and everyone on the foreign teams were using. Lance Armstrong slammed him as a liar and then about a year later cane out with the truth that he'd been using along with everyone else that cycles professionally. Hamilton said the PED use was so widespread that he doesn't think anyone could be natural and still compete at that level. What do you think of Michael Phelps? You think hes ever used because he came out pretty hard against it and said, if you've ever been caught doping even once you should never be able to compete again.
I was there in Seoul in 88 at the Olympics and seeing Flo Jo was So Awesome! We were also there when Ben Johnson Smoked Carl Lewis, we felt the Wind when he went by! Best Olympics I’ve ever attended!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@mohamadoubambaniang7734 she was cleared of doping charges and they were dropped……so she is therefore still the greatest woman sprinter this earth has ever seen to date……
@Mario Croft I’m with you on that….she is phenomenal - but she will have stiff competition from the rest of the pack……Fraser and Oka still running fast times too - but there’s something about Sha - Carrie i love…….her flair and style are similar to Flo Jos and her top end is also similar and freakishly fast……..lets just admit the 100 m will epic and will the one to watch most def - everyone get ready for the highlight reel lol 💯🔥❤️
@@bronzemen34 Yea it will be exciting. All of these super fast runners from the U.S. and Jamaica are biologically the same, all ancestry from west Africa which is where super speed comes from.
For women, bit sexist that isn't it? "in our era" what's that all about, not exactly a long time ago was it, pretty provocative post really, wasn't it Mama?
Flo-Jo psyched everyone out before the race. Once she started running, the rest of the field could only look at her back. She was that good. RIP, Flo-Jo. You were simply the best.
@@charliesouthgate6125 Do you, now? Do you? She had a medical condition, cavernous angioma. Look it up. Also, the autopsy found no evidence of steroids in her system. Try again.

Amen. PS ironic that your name is Frankel, because (respectfully) I was thinking about comparisons between Flo-Jo and the horse Frankel during this video.
I love her smiling with 30 meters to go, knowing she was going to win the gold. Had she not raised her hands up with five meters to go she might have broken or tied her world record, although the wind was above the legal limit. Forever a legend. RIP . . .
It's simply amazing with how little effort she broke the Olympic record, even with a smile on her face, while the other competitors were in complete spasm. Flo Jo is so unique, the one and only, forever...

@@seanou2837 Truth? Something no one couldn’t prove back then nor today lol. Be intellectual and say that it’s your opinion fool. The fact of the matter is that She never tested positive alive nor during her autopsy so let Flo Jo rest in peace fool.
There will never be a more powerful sprinter than Florence Griffith Joyner. So many legends! Grace Jackson, Gwen Torrance, Angela Issayenko, Merlene Ottey and my favourite Evelyn Ashford!
1987 flojo switch coaches and philosophies... Al joiner had her lifting weights ,, powerlifting ...at that time weightlifting was shunned in sprinting.. sprinters did not lift weights... Once Florence Griffith joiner did that she morphed into flojo... The greatest of all time simple is that
@@sinsin1697 You obviously have no knowledge, connection, or association with athletics. Weight training has been part of sprinting for over 60 years. Steroids became mainstream in the 70's. FloJo used both to full effect.
@gmellias Understanding this race, Marles Gohr, Silke Mouller names that have not been mentioned, who were World 100m Champs before the finals. Did not make the finals, Flojo, Ashford, Torrance, Dresler, Ottey, Jackson, Cuth ert ran the Eastern-Bloc doppers off the Track. Look at the last two semifinals before the final these were the fastest women in the World a year earlier;and many them did not make the final.

I remember watching some of these races at the time, and like a fool didn't appreciate the history that was happening. Smiling through the last 30m, awesome. Flo-Jo's record performances get more impressive every year.
Florence never got the endorsements and the flowers she should have. We watched her in awe. Her running style, effortless and graceful was so ahead of the time she competed in. Imagine her now? May she RIP.
@@rODIUMuk keep your blinders on then, the time of easy drug cheating. Easy to cover up a drug test back then. Look at kratochvolova the beast who passed all drug tests yet ???? Easy to say no evidence, just look and see the times. Thing is even now drug masking or new Peds that can't be detected are ahead of the drug testers, gap is closing but it's getting harder to cheat every year if u haven't the scientific backing.

It's going to be....doping for sure, the super fast tracks, the super spikes, athletes today can go pro right out of high school so they can train all the time vs work due to being sponsored and paid,. the coaching is better, the meets designed for WR's with the rabbits and the new pacing lights.. endless. Elaine T-H has the best shot at breaking these WR's and I would love it. Just because she breaks FloJo's records doesn't alter FloJo's legendary status. I was there in 88 watching it all happen in real time. FloJo transcended track and brought excitement to the womens side with her high fashion, looks, wild sexy outfits, the hair, the full body suits with the cap, the smile and joy while running... She captured the worlds attention just like Bolt did for the same reason...the IT factor besides the WR's. We just had the games..did anyone capture the worlds attention (not just track fans) like Bolt did for so many years or FloJo in 88. Think not. They transcended the track world to elevate the excitement which pulled people in. FloJo was an even bigger cultural phenom then she was on the track. I think the track world has wasted bolt after he retired. The sport needed him as an ambassador. FloJo predated Jones but I remember after her insane WR at the trials all eyes, doctors, testers, skeptics...were on her like clue. She was tested and re-tested then it got even worse after the games because of Ben Johnson. There was more testing. She was later tested during the autopsy after her career and life were long over. how about innocent until proven guilty but now it is everyone is guilty no matter the testing.

@Vaęrđ that word made him famous when he used it to describe an Australian rules football player during a game
Australian Bruce McAveney, a very good Athletics commentator.
These were the games we played on C64. Ben Johnson was a powerful rocket but oh boy how FloJo pushed the limits. RIP FloJo
Truly She was HEAVEN SENT------- taken from us FAR too soon.......how I loved her along with a few billion others.
It's crazy how so many people want to talk about drugs but, no one wants to talk about the fact that her mechanics are immaculate.
yaaaaawn...she's a fake
Even given the widespread assumption that the whole field was doped up - making it an "equal" playing field - she still had the best technique which is why she won; her ability to maximize the efficiency of her front-end mechanics is why she increased the gap at the end. Sha'carri Richardson best demonstrates how effective the "flo-jo technique" is towards the end of the race. Elaine Thompson as well.
People assume every pro athlete is on something illegal, but find real joy in 'canceling' the winners on that basis. Makes no sense.
@@Insert639 Exactly!!!
So immaculate this was the only year of her career she was any good. How funny that is with such immaculate mechanics.
@@Insert639 If it were that simple she would have been on top the rest of her career. Ooops.
I was at many track meets and witnessed Flo-Jo run these record races. The women sprinters today are good, but once you've seen athletes of the caliber of Flo Jo and Ashford, from back in the day, it's hard to be impressed!
They were on the juice.
@@timelessvickdamone you people and your silly speculation with zero proof whatsoever. She's been tested for steroid use tons before, during, and even had her body examined after death...no signs of use whatsoever.

Were you at the back of the line when brains were handed out? Every “female” in that final shaved more often than most blokes. Roid runners would be more appropriate.
I can't stop watching this video. What a woman she was.
Was young back then in the late 80s at soul Olympics. Flo Jo was flawless, elegant and a beauty to behold. RIP.
@21:45. The smiling so far out from the finish line during an Olympic final demonstrate just how technically perfect and relax she was with absolutely no stress or ugly face like so many sprinters of the past and especially the current. Then One and Only Flo-Jo.
So effortless like she was being propelled by some unnatural force. Much like Bullet Ben
My two favorites ever...Flo-Jo and Evelyn Ashford.
Dynamic Duo.
Mine too, of that era. Fraser-Pryce mine of modern times.
Ms Evie Ashford gets a fraction of her dues that she's owed in the track and field history, imo.
my favorite athlete ever ... Anabolic
@@camboriuense10 lol yea, I dont think the general public has any idea of the huge epidemic of PEDs in elite athletics. They have no idea of how long they've been used, and how many elite athletes use them which is just about all of them...I'd say 85%, and the other 15% never get within the top 100 in their sport so they don't even know them.
Wasnt it Katt William's that made the joke about how the athletes keep getting bigger and stronger and faster the older they get and no one even cares to realize that's not how it works? Theres this interview with Usain Bolt and the reporter is asking him about the very suspicious times the Jamaican track team did and he got soo mad at her for asking but then again didnt come straight out and deny they were doing PEDs either. Lol who is that cyclist Hamilton something that came out with how the US team doctor walked around with a fisherman's vest on (you know the vests with about 50 different little pockets) and all the pockets had a different PED in them and everyone on the team was using and everyone on the foreign teams were using. Lance Armstrong slammed him as a liar and then about a year later cane out with the truth that he'd been using along with everyone else that cycles professionally. Hamilton said the PED use was so widespread that he doesn't think anyone could be natural and still compete at that level. What do you think of Michael Phelps? You think hes ever used because he came out pretty hard against it and said, if you've ever been caught doping even once you should never be able to compete again.
Flo Jo...like watching a superhero
Florence and Evelyn all day! Loved watching them both. The 4x100 was one of my all-time favorites races.
She is very great, and her gorgeous grins light up the track.🥰
