Florence was clean and the fastest sprinter. Everyone here knows this, they just pretend they don't. Pure soul, body, spirit. This trio is the winner. FloJo will be the best forever❤
Carmelita’s form particularly during her 10.67 in Greece should be used as an example of perfect running technique. From the arms to the head to the knee lift, down to the placement of her feel, sheer perfection.
FloJo very relaxed sprint style is what makes her so fast...Elaine is really starting to duplicate that level of relaxation and form and we see the results. I feel a new World Record from either Elaine or Shelley!!!
Shelly Ann will NOT run faster than FloJo. I ran track, and FloJo had power AND grace. Jamaica ONLY has a lead because the fastest American women have died or retired. 👩🏽🦱🇺🇸
@@thinktank2255 Elaine Thompson (a Jamaican) beat Flo Jo's Olympics record. The world record is suspect given the wind gage malfunctioning and not picking up the any wind.
@Slim Jim Hater because women can run faster than you, don't feel like a looser ok, they're athletes and I bet you can finish a bag of chips faster than them. See, you're good at something.
even tho that 10.49 WR is controversial imo the smoothest ever running iv seen has always been by FloJo, she just seems to float along the track and her stride pattern seems huge compared to anyone else even the men
@@MEGAjunglejuice I think it's possible that she was but there may have been a malfunction with the wind gauge but idk. It's undeniable that her form, technique and strategy were incredible regardless of wind. Edit: I said that it was a FACT that there may have been a malfunction when it's really only an assumption people have had so I changed that part of my comment. Respect to the people who actually knew Flo Jo. Peace. Shalawam.
@@msp5138 And you evidently know so instead of making an empty statement that doesn't say anything at all why don't you tell me who has a better running technique than her and why?
Florence's 10.49 race was a sprint that gave me goosebumps to watch. To this day, you can't tell me that something beyond this world wasn't pulling her along. She literally looked like she started to float and get faster. Absolutely mindboggling.
I've always said this that if she had been running in that race against men that they would have pulled her to a 10 3 because she ran a 10.49 and she was not being pushed by anyone....
@@xrt89fly That's actually very possible. And I like that thought. Runners tend to run harder when the competition demands more from them. But I guess, at the same time, sprint coaches say that running relaxed is the best way to run. So, haha, I don't know. Exciting possibility to think about 😃
@@rockydaniel7073 it’s the biggest hush hush secret in the history of sports, notice she is barely mentioned , everyone knows but because the testing was flawed back then , they never 💯 could prove it , sad she mysteriously died out of the blue ,

@@charlettarice2645 Cyclist Lance Armstrong never tested positive either. Won all those Tour de Frances. Later admitted to doping most of his career. Many of the 70's & 80's East German track & field athletes did not fail drug tests. Certainly most all of them were doping. The fact that doping athletes frequently beat a drug test makes it virtually impossible to know who is clean and who isn't. Can't say for sure with FloJo, but the fact that she competed when doping was at its height and that she died so young, makes it probable in my mind that she had routinely taken steroids but was never caught. Like Lance.
@@charlettarice2645 Marion Jones never tested positive either but she still confessed. Let’s not forget Ben Johnson sent the untraceable THG to prove that athletes were doping.
Clean, smooth running style belongs to Flo Jo.. 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. Thanks to FloJo. REST IN PEACE❤ She the best forever❤
Another enjoyable video but not up to the same standard as the one for the men. A couple of missed names - Wilma Rudolf, Fanny Blankers-Koen. Richardson and Steiner have not been around long enough to be included and Okagbare received a ban before this video was made, so I don't think she should have been included. Anyway, keep up the good work with your videos.
Fue medallista de plata en 200m en Los Angeles 1984 y en el mundial de Roma 1987. Y sus marcas personales en 1987 era 21.96 y 10.96 en los 200m y 100m respectivamente, no diría que era nada antes de sus records del mundos. Aun asi es muy sospechoso que en 1 años bajara dus marcas por mas de medio segundo. Pero lamentablemente nunca se sabrá si se dopaba o no.
Why do people who know the least have the biggest mouths. You don't know anthing about track or Mrs. Ashford. How can someone make 5 US Olympic sprint teams and have a terrible diet. You clearly rode the small bus to school.
Evelyn was pure natural forward leaning beauty.. She never looked juiced.. Flojo those bulging hip flexors..and those striations in her quads..Yikes! Hard to beat her WR's.
Flojo learned how to train more intelligently when her husband started coaching her. There are many legal foods and supplements that exist that, with proper training and rest, will easily enable the body to develop in ways that may amaze some people. I know this from experience. I can make a smoothie that'll make your veins pop and your muscles grow without much effort.
Your name says it all. Some sprinters know that if they push too hard they are prone to get injured so they shut it down in races where they are leading by enough or in races that aren't the finals. It's to conserve energy and not be apart of your INJURYCOMP lol.
People can talk till they pass out.Flo Jo's achievements are set in stone.Debate all you want online nowadays as it's been happening.And need I say if FloJo was Jamaican we'd certainly be having a debate as to why she has been put on this poster behind an inferior sprinter?😂😂 People really crack me up
Particular in the sprint when it is all over after 100m women are all amazing. I am talking ONLY about the top elite. I need a TH-cam video explaining what women could be just as males in long distance running. I have feeling it >might< be so. What does male bone weigh and what does female bones weigh. ´Make a video about THAT and then explain marathons where I in my wild mind think females have a chance. I guess many countries pick sports and training methods that cost less. Netherlands did not have to do that .... it is just a bunch of trainers and a lot of athletes getting super competent in running. Same with bicycle. Netherlands have a bunch of trainers and athletes who have a targeted training. They did not need to select such cheap sports but they did and it all continued from there ... so they are in a flow. And that might end.
Just a personal opinion here. I think in order for Elaine to get the world record, she needs someone like Shelly-Ann to chase and challenge her to get to that top-end speed. Otherwise, it's not going to happen. It's almost there
Yeah shelly needed to get the rocket start and acceleration on point up to 60 m then elaine had to chase shelly with that top end speed. Have legal wind behind them … it was a possibility. Not anymore tho. They both arent on that top shape to push each other anymore.
A pesar de haberse dopado, para mi la atleta con mejor técnica de carrera es Marion Jones con angulo perfecto de brazos y piernas ademas de ser de las pocas velocistas altas, y luego Carmelita Jeter
Aby Steiner is so fast partly because of her arm action. Her arms never ever go back as far as the other runners. Her moment is more on the forward motion. Observe and see what I am talking about. She puts all effort going forward whereas other runners impact the forward movement by bring their entire arm so far back
Flo jo was on that Juice. Got away with it! I watched her whole career. Compare her pictures, an amazing transformation from a avg sprinter to the best.People try not to comment but it’s so obvious. Female version of Ben Johnson at the same time. Died mysteriously with a illness no one ever heard of…. Hmmm? Set records that will take a 100 yrs to break like the East Germans of the 70’s and 80’s
@@lalib.53 everybody know it, Evelyn Ashford will tell you, we was in the track world at the same time. Avg sprinter that became great in later stages.
@@lalib.53 you can hide your head in the sand if you wish, she was juiced like the women in Europe at the same time, Ben Johnson did the same thing at the same time, a good to avg sprinter who became great overnight.
@@gregorywillis8400Your blind hatred obstructs your clear vision. Further research will reveal the facts if you are willing. It's a moral issue: Flo Jo achieved her results through hard training. He didn't need doping. That's the point here. She changed coaches, she and her husband developed new training methods, which brought the long-awaited success, in addition to the work put in. 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👍 There are interviews with her from 1984 where her voice is exactly the same. She always had a deep voice.Her voice is also deep in the training video made in 1994, even though she hasn't competed in years. FloJo's death was caused by an epileptic seizure due to a congenital brain disorder, sadly drowned RIP❤ Florence Griffith Joyner retires from the field On February 22, 1989, five months after the Seoul Olympic Games, Griffith Joyner announced his retirement from track and field. When discussing his retirement with Liguori, Griffith Joyner said: "I retired in 1989 because I could no longer train at 100%, the way I used to train. If I can't give it my all, I don't want to give it at all." Griffith Joyner moved on with his life. She became a mother, pursued fashion design and continued to combine sports and style. He even designed the 1990 NBA uniforms for the Indiana Pacers. After the death of Florence Griffith Joyner, doping allegations against her intensified. Many believed that illegal performance enhancers may have contributed to his death. However, after the autopsy, Dr. Richard Fukumoto, forensic medicine expert, clearly stated that no changes caused by steroids or other doping agents could be detected in his body. "This report allows Florence Griffith Joyner to rest in peace," said Primo Nebiolo, then president of the International Association of Athletics Federations. “His family has had to endure incredible media attacks, many trying to undermine his legacy without any real evidence. This campaign harmed the entire sport and the anti-doping campaign. I expect more responsible behavior from media representatives in the future. I hope that after this, many members of the athletic world will assure the family of their love and sympathy." The 100m and 200m world record holder is FloJo, these are the facts. Facts are stubborn things. "FloJo was juicing". These are just assumptions. The truth is, no one has ever proven these allegations. So FloJo's world records are and will remain official. I don't see anyone who can topple them. FloJo achieved his results with the perfect harmony of body, soul and spirit. : Everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty.... DYOR
This is a clearly biased video. For instance, Merlene Ottey, Juliet Cuthbert and Grace Jackson did so much better than many of these runners and they weren't even mentioned. Merlene is in the top 4 for running the most 100m races under 11 secs and this video shows 1 race of her running 11 secs. Instead, many drugged out runners are featured.
To evolve from European Caucasian (injected with God only knows what by the Soviet Bloc), to the African American, to the African Caribbean. I cheered for them all. Especially the ones whom wore our flag🇺🇲 or trained here. As a white dude, to see Daphne and Abby doing what their doing is pretty damn remarkable. Respect must be acknowledged.

@lalib.53 ezplain why she only had 2 dominating years? Explain her dramatic improvement in a short period of time? And why didn't she continue her career after the allegations?
Florence is the best. 35 years and her times still stand as world record. She had by far the best mechanics and she ran much more relaxed than the others. look at her face it looks like she is not really trying. She is relaxing her upper body
It's amazing when you see Abby Steiner's video though, how much potential she has to potentially beat the WR. She is the only one of all of them that pushes off with such violent power that her body literally quickly lurches forward with every stride. If she can somehow get off the line faster, that 10.49 is within reach. She ran 10.89 with that slow start in the race here.

Y’all will make any story!! She never tested positive for any drugs… stop trying to tarnish her WR period!!!!
@@charlettarice2645 Cyclist Lance Armstrong never tested positive either. Won all those Tour de Frances. Later admitted to doping most of his career. Many of the 70's & 80's East German track & field athletes did not fail drug tests. Certainly most all of them were doping. The fact that doping athletes frequently beat a drug test makes it virtually impossible to know who is clean and who isn't. Can't say for sure with FloJo, but the fact that she competed when doping was at its height and that she died so young, makes it probable in my mind that she had routinely taken steroids but was never caught. Like Lance.
@@Nirky Again it was NEVER proven so the conversation is meaningless!!!!!
@@charlettarice2645 Marion Jones never tested positive either but she still confessed. Let’s not forget Ben Johnson sent the untraceable THG to prove that athletes were doping.
@@BajJamBeauty That still doesn’t prove anything.. Flojo NEVER tested or confessed and she ran before both them in the 80s!!!
All juiced!!!!
Clean, smooth running style belongs to Flo Jo.. 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. Thanks to FloJo. REST IN PEACE❤
She the best forever❤

Another enjoyable video but not up to the same standard as the one for the men. A couple of missed names - Wilma Rudolf, Fanny Blankers-Koen. Richardson and Steiner have not been around long enough to be included and Okagbare received a ban before this video was made, so I don't think she should have been included. Anyway, keep up the good work with your videos.
En un año de ser nada, superó el récord mundial. Superdopada
Fue medallista de plata en 200m en Los Angeles 1984 y en el mundial de Roma 1987. Y sus marcas personales en 1987 era 21.96 y 10.96 en los 200m y 100m respectivamente, no diría que era nada antes de sus records del mundos. Aun asi es muy sospechoso que en 1 años bajara dus marcas por mas de medio segundo. Pero lamentablemente nunca se sabrá si se dopaba o no.
Do you have any evidence regarding Flo Jo?
Because if not, your words are meaningless.
Hate, envy and jealousy are bad advisors for you.
Evelyn Ashford was all raw speed. She had a terrible diet and trained like a high school sprinter. Flo Jo was a drugged up lab experiment gone wrong!
Why do people who know the least have the biggest mouths. You don't know anthing about track or Mrs. Ashford. How can someone make 5 US Olympic sprint teams and have a terrible diet. You clearly rode the small bus to school.

COOL VID!
Great woman ..
Greatest ppl on earth
Amazing...
Elaine Thompson Herah has a beautiful style of running.
Tori Bowie should be part too
Abby Steiner has come out of NOWHERE!
Elaine has an amazing stride.
Evelyn was pure natural forward leaning beauty.. She never looked juiced.. Flojo those bulging hip flexors..and those striations in her quads..Yikes! Hard to beat her WR's.
Flojo learned how to train more intelligently when her husband started coaching her. There are many legal foods and supplements that exist that, with proper training and rest, will easily enable the body to develop in ways that may amaze some people. I know this from experience. I can make a smoothie that'll make your veins pop and your muscles grow without much effort.

fun watching abby, she's like a car with a turbo, got that turbo lag
I have never, ever understood the frequent slowing BEFORE the finish line!! ?
Your name says it all. Some sprinters know that if they push too hard they are prone to get injured so they shut it down in races where they are leading by enough or in races that aren't the finals. It's to conserve energy and not be apart of your INJURYCOMP lol.
@@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 stupid explanation .....
People can talk till they pass out.Flo Jo's achievements are set in stone.Debate all you want online nowadays as it's been happening.And need I say if FloJo was Jamaican we'd certainly be having a debate as to why she has been put on this poster behind an inferior sprinter?😂😂 People really crack me up
Hate, envy, jealousy are bad advisors for them.
Human perfection, no matter the result.
Particular in the sprint when it is all over after 100m women are all amazing. I am talking ONLY about the top elite. I need a TH-cam video explaining what women could be just as males in long distance running. I have feeling it >might< be so. What does male bone weigh and what does female bones weigh. ´Make a video about THAT and then explain marathons where I in my wild mind think females have a chance.
I guess many countries pick sports and training methods that cost less. Netherlands did not have to do that .... it is just a bunch of trainers and a lot of athletes getting super competent in running. Same with bicycle. Netherlands have a bunch of trainers and athletes who have a targeted training. They did not need to select such cheap sports but they did and it all continued from there ... so they are in a flow. And that might end.
Why is Abby Steiner here, she's barely known?
She's on TV a lot lately and has a very unique style. Plus if she can run that fast with that bad of a start, she has potential.
If she makes the US team for World Champs it will seem like a worthy inclusion for people who watch this video in the future
Because she runs like lightning, wouldn't want her chasing you after a night out 🤣
Just a personal opinion here. I think in order for Elaine to get the world record, she needs someone like Shelly-Ann to chase and challenge her to get to that top-end speed. Otherwise, it's not going to happen. It's almost there
Yeah shelly needed to get the rocket start and acceleration on point up to 60 m then elaine had to chase shelly with that top end speed. Have legal wind behind them … it was a possibility.
Not anymore tho. They both arent on that top shape to push each other anymore.
Aint nobdy fucking with Flo Jo!!!!
That Abby Steiner win is insane!!
Queen Flo is all alone on top of the mountain as the most perfect runner EVER EVER EVER no one comes near
Boa 👏👏👏👏👏👏▶️
A pesar de haberse dopado, para mi la atleta con mejor técnica de carrera es Marion Jones con angulo perfecto de brazos y piernas ademas de ser de las pocas velocistas altas, y luego Carmelita Jeter

She is my favorite druggie too...

Aby Steiner is so fast partly because of her arm action. Her arms never ever go back as far as the other runners. Her moment is more on the forward motion. Observe and see what I am talking about. She puts all effort going forward whereas other runners impact the forward movement by bring their entire arm so far back
سُبْحَانَك اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا أَنْتَ ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْك.َ^-^
My god Carmelita Jeter is a damn powerhouse
Abby Steiner.. wow
Flo jo was on that Juice. Got away with it! I watched her whole career. Compare her pictures, an amazing transformation from a avg sprinter to the best.People try not to comment but it’s so obvious. Female version of Ben Johnson at the same time. Died mysteriously with a illness no one ever heard of…. Hmmm? Set records that will take a 100 yrs to break like the East Germans of the 70’s and 80’s

@@lalib.53 everybody know it, Evelyn Ashford will tell you, we was in the track world at the same time. Avg sprinter that became great in later stages.
@@lalib.53 you can hide your head in the sand if you wish, she was juiced like the women in Europe at the same time, Ben Johnson did the same thing at the same time, a good to avg sprinter who became great overnight.
@@gregorywillis8400Your blind hatred obstructs your clear vision. Further research will reveal the facts if you are willing.
It's a moral issue: Flo Jo achieved her results through hard training. He didn't need doping. That's the point here.
She changed coaches, she and her husband developed new training methods, which brought the long-awaited success, in addition to the work put in.
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👍
There are interviews with her from 1984 where her voice is exactly the same. She always had a deep voice.Her voice is also deep in the training video made in 1994, even though she hasn't competed in years.
FloJo's death was caused by an epileptic seizure due to a congenital brain disorder, sadly drowned RIP❤
Florence Griffith Joyner retires from the field On February 22, 1989, five months after the Seoul Olympic Games, Griffith Joyner announced his retirement from track and field. When discussing his retirement with Liguori, Griffith Joyner said: "I retired in 1989 because I could no longer train at 100%, the way I used to train. If I can't give it my all, I don't want to give it at all." Griffith Joyner moved on with his life. She became a mother, pursued fashion design and continued to combine sports and style. He even designed the 1990 NBA uniforms for the Indiana Pacers.
After the death of Florence Griffith Joyner, doping allegations against her intensified. Many believed that illegal performance enhancers may have contributed to his death. However, after the autopsy, Dr. Richard Fukumoto, forensic medicine expert, clearly stated that no changes caused by steroids or other doping agents could be detected in his body. "This report allows Florence Griffith Joyner to rest in peace," said Primo Nebiolo, then president of the International Association of Athletics Federations. “His family has had to endure incredible media attacks, many trying to undermine his legacy without any real evidence. This campaign harmed the entire sport and the anti-doping campaign. I expect more responsible behavior from media representatives in the future. I hope that after this, many members of the athletic world will assure the family of their love and sympathy."
The 100m and 200m world record holder is FloJo, these are the facts.
Facts are stubborn things. "FloJo was juicing". These are just assumptions. The truth is, no one has ever proven these allegations. So FloJo's world records are and will remain official. I don't see anyone who can topple them. FloJo achieved his results with the perfect harmony of body, soul and spirit.

DYOR
This is a clearly biased video. For instance, Merlene Ottey, Juliet Cuthbert and Grace Jackson did so much better than many of these runners and they weren't even mentioned. Merlene is in the top 4 for running the most 100m races under 11 secs and this video shows 1 race of her running 11 secs. Instead, many drugged out runners are featured.
Same thing im saying as well. Only one video of the Legendary Merlene Ottey. Juliet Cuthbert and Grace Jackson should have been featured...

Florence is the best. 35 years and her times still stand as world record.
She had by far the best mechanics and she ran much more relaxed than the others.
look at her face it looks like she is not really trying.
She is relaxing her upper body
True❤
Anybody notice how the lady tried to hit Ashford’s hand…
It's amazing when you see Abby Steiner's video though, how much potential she has to potentially beat the WR. She is the only one of all of them that pushes off with such violent power that her body literally quickly lurches forward with every stride. If she can somehow get off the line faster, that 10.49 is within reach. She ran 10.89 with that slow start in the race here.
Don't show a replay of the last 20 meters when they're shutting it down 😑
Even the sprinting community acclaimed that flo Jo's from is the gretest form ever across both male and female. No doubts hands down.
Felix has some super long femurs
It's crazy how some sprinters hit that 3rd gear, its like they turn on a rocket booster.
