Okay but Derek Redmond and his dad absolutely made me cry. His physical and mental pain is so evident, and his dad jumping in straight away to help his son finish. I can't T_T
I saw Derek Redmond in a "Celebrate Humanity" commercial, but until today, I had no idea about the full story, and it blows my tiny little mind. Wow. Just... just wow.
That gets me every time I see it. First, for Derek to work that hard and come that far to have your body break when you need it most is the ultimate kick in the pants (plus I cant imagine the pain of snapping your hamstring!!!). But then having your dad come out to support you on the largest of stages, to be that solid rock to lean on like he probably has been for Derek's whole life, is a amazing thing to have. That's what a great parent is. That's what I tell myself every day when doing things for my kids. Be like Mr. Redmond.
i dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me!
At the end of the day, I think anyone from any country would be even more proud of their athletes for helping out others in need as opposed to finish a race for a medal. Under any circumstance. At least, I know I would for Canada.
There was even an animation about that before Moscow80 where the future mascot Mishka helps everybody during the race and remain last. By the way, the referee was an eagle who decided Mishka will be winner of honor to be the mascot in the animation
One of my favourite stories is how the Australian Peter Norman supported Tommie Smith and John Carlos during their Black Power salute and suggesting they share the pair of gloves. Just standing there quietly supporting in solidarity, even though it would impact his career. I believe the Americans were even pallbearers at his funeral.
Thanks for the info thanks to you I just learned about that "Black Power Salute" I've seen people doing it for awhile but didn't know the story behind it.
Yes, very sadly, he was treated appallingly by the Australian athletics authorities who never selected him again because of his support for Smith and Carlos.
there is darkness and then there is hope...... with so many athletes coming up with so. much of positive energy there is no space for anything bad..... there is juat pure spirit sportsmanship and beautiful stories along with some. medals
These people dedicate their lives to be the being the best of the best. They sacrifice so much to get where they are. It's hard to imagine giving that up, but their opponents are some of the only people in the world who've been through the same and they feel it. Especially in these individual sports where it's not us vs them, but each human against their mind. This is what I love about the olympics.
Despite the professionalism in today's Olympics, the spirit survives in its athletes. If this world can have some semblence of unity, it will only be through sport; mark my words.
" If this world can have some semblence of unity, it will only be through sport; mark my words." That makes no sense whatsoever. No "unity" has _ever_ been achieved through spectator sports; the usual products are *rivalry* and nationalism.
Luz Long was a great athlete and even better sportsman, but that story never happened. Owens later revealed that it was all a myth, though Owens and Long became friends after the event and Owens would go on to be the best man at Long's son's wedding(Long unfortunately died during WW2)
As a Canadian we would rather help someone then let them fail or worse. We always will be there as competitors but also as friends to whomever we deem worthy.
With the Sara Renner one however, its more the fact you can hear him yelling to her whilst running with the pole that warms your heart, knocking his team out of medals THATS the Olympic spirit
The video only tells part of the story on the two x-country skiing events. Sara Renner (and there is a typo at the top, was competing in a two member team sprint event at Torino, not Toronto, in 2006) won a silver medal. The Norwegian coach would have been holding a spare ski pole, presumably to help a Norwegian entrant. In giving the spare to a Canadian, he helped the Canadians win a silver, and the Norwegians finished fourth. Sharing the silver medals with Sara Renner was Beckie Scott. Justin Wadsworth was a former American x-country ski competitor and he went on to coach the Canadian team. The fun part - Justin Wadsworth is married to Beckie Scott. I do not know any of these people, and it might be just too romantic to imagine that when Wadsworth helped out the Russian competitor at Sochi, he was thinking, a Norwegian coach's actions helped my wife win a silver medal at Torino so here is my chance to even the score. The Russian was out of medal contention however.
02:48 with a 5 minute time for the last 400m? She beat my best, though our last 400 probably looked *identical.* (Come to think of it, our ages were the same, too. Huh!)
It's truly a shame that the microcosm of the humanity in the Olympics where colour, religion, Nationality or anything else like that doesn't matter and all the competitors see each other for what they are, a human being that breathes the same, bleeds the same, hurts the same. It's sad we'll never have a world like this, but I guess the escape of the Olympics every 4 years to see acts like this can help that fantasy, help us dream, just a little.
I never admired champions, (even being one myself on a national level), because for me sport is not about medals and about decent behaviour while you do it. Nowadays it's unforgivably rare.
I feel humiliated knowing that I, as a (mostly former) hard working young male in my 20's, with my personal best on the 5 km race while being in my best shape, and with a time.of 19:27 minutes ... *WAS BEATEN* by two injured WOMEN by more than 2 entire minutes!! How is this possible? The injured women from the 5k race finished 17:09... I feel embarrassed

Then the officials kicked him when he was down and disqualified him

Nobody ever remembers who won that 400m race. We just remember hamstrung Derek Redmond wobbling over the finish line in his father’s arms.
@@madabbafanHis dad should have stayed out of it. You can’t receive help. Redmond could have finished on his own.
It’s awesome seeing so many coaches so quickly rising to help rival athletes. It never gets old to me. 🥺

the spliced medals tho, that is so dope

just saw a new one to add to this collection, the two high jumpers just decided to share gold with their tie.
Yaa that was terrific
Yup he was soo happy 😍
Also loved that Abdi Nageeye encouraged Bashir Abdi to not give up in the final stretch of the marathon, so that they could both medal.
In the Sailing one, Lawrence was in 2nd place but gave that up to help the team
❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍
After all there is something which is beautifully called as humanity 💜

The olympics are not fond of political statements if they are controversial, however humanitarian they may be.
He suffered greatly sadly.
Yes, very sadly, he was treated appallingly by the Australian athletics authorities who never selected him again because of his support for Smith and Carlos.
These wholesome moments are my favourite part of olympics
This video doesn’t mention one of the sweetest details of #7. Philip Boit and Bjorn Daehlie remained friends and Boit named his son Daehlie after him!
5:00 There is NO way they should have been running a boat race in that weather! What were they thinking?!

Cross country skiing is a saint’s sport apparently
honestly so is track and field! Redmond, Hamblin and D'Agostino, Long and Owens, all track and field!

the woman who helped the other woman when she hurt herself in the track meet is a legend to me 💗💗
Nicky Hamblin
Medals are nice, but it is the spirit that embodies that which we call the Olympic Games!
I have loved the support the athletes have given each other
All of these moments are the epitome of the Olympic Spirit and worth far more than any medal.
The Olympics always bring out the best in people
unless you're doping
@@DevanshiRuparel besides that
Unless you're Tonya Harding
or larry nassar and the ioc covering it up for 25 years

Its so beautiful to see that I wish Sportsmanship should not be only in sport but also in life
Shows that the beauty of sport lies more in the process than in the result. Its the grit and fun than the gold medal.
5:57 Abbey suffered a torn ACL during her fall but still managed to complete the 5,000m in still a fast 17 minutes with that injury.

That makes no sense whatsoever. No "unity" has _ever_ been achieved through spectator sports; the usual products are *rivalry* and nationalism.
This is why I love the Olympics. People from different countries coming together to help and support each other regardless of culture
This should be updated with Tambieri jumping with happiness when he got to share 🥇
The Nshida and Oe one is so cute lol

When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.
This is the reason why I love sport
The Olympics are about being your best, which sometimes is not necessarily about winning.
The Olympics _used to be_ about being your best, but since the 1970s it has mostly been about being able to commercialize one's wins.
these are my fave types of videos
wow
such moments fill u up with pride
Sabe quando somos fortes de verdade? Quando estamos juntos!
As a Canadian we would rather help someone then let them fail or worse. We always will be there as competitors but also as friends to whomever we deem worthy.
When the Athletes fell, they must getting up and never ever give up.
Olímpiada é sobre muito mais do que esporte, e é por isso que eu amo tanto ♥
Friendship>>battle
You know it's good hearted when it comes from the early 2000s
3:24 she did not take the spare pole from the coach.... You can see he offers it then runs back still holding it. Wrong clip??
I had the same confusion
He took the broken one. She would never finish second without the pole.
A true champion wants to beat his rivals when they are at their best
Amazing people
The runner with his dad 😭😭💔💔
This is so heartwarming ❤️❤️❤️
Me after seeing 1:00
Something is wrong i can feel it💀
Number one is the best one of the all. ❤️
