Herschel Walker was such a stud. He was the kind of running back that could carry four or five guys down the field with him. Strength and speed, what a combination for an NFL running back. He definitely had world class speed but I had no idea his start was so fast.
No he didn't have world class speed. His best 100m legal time was 10.23. At that time the world record was 9.93. There were a lot of people running sub 10.1 in that era.
Was not that they did not want to feature him. They took a deep I-tailback, and and brought him into a pro set, and did not revamp their entire offense around him. Walker was dynamite if you started him 7 yards deep and ran him between the tackles. But he was stiff and ineffective without that running start and if he had to go wide.
All those NFL's Fastest Man competitions that Darrell Green won were 60 yards long. The 100 yard dash isn't Darrell's best event. The opposite was always true for guys like Herschel Walker and Willie Gault; neither was very good in the 60 but excelled in the longer 100. Fun fact: in the very first NFL's Fastest Man Competition, Willie Gault knew he would struggle in a 60 yard dash so he lobbied to have the event extended to 100 yards but lost the appeal.
Actually really not the case since Darrell actually ran faster than Herschel in the 55, 60, 100 and 200 in his sprinting career BUT Herschel was in superior shape and this competition included about 12 different events so he held up better in one of the last events.
@@ricosuavepr1207 I guess what I really should have said is that Gault and Herschel would fare better against Darrell in the 100 than they would in the 60. Not saying they'd win but it'd be a hell of a lot closer. Gault and Herschel both hated the 60 because it's simply not their kind of race and Darrell knew it.
I'd forgotten about this one. I was in HS at the time. The only other race I've seen Darrell Green lose was a 40 yard dash around age 50 to an active NFL WR and it wasn't by much
But it's funny they show this charity race, but why don't they show the worlds fastest man contest where Darrell Green beat Herschel Walker, and Darrell never lost a worlds fastest man contest. Just saying
It is impressive, but remember this was the 100 yard dash. The 40 yard dash was a very different result and IMO, is more relevant for football players. But I agree, still very impressive.
If not mistaken didn't they already do a longer race before this and Darrell ran off and left everyone, he clearly pulled up, but Walker is a beast, the 40 is a different ball game.
Much respect to all who competed in this. Even those knowing they weren’t going to win but still displayed some athleticism. Mad respect to all of them shown here
When they had these events, shot putter and general bad ass Brian "Barney" Oldfield was interviewed before a sprint and said "I'm a few shades too light to win this event."
One of the most undderated athletes of all time, Walker. As a Cowboys fan and huge fan of his, I thank him for winning the Cowboys 3 Super Bowl as well
Ummm....no. He caught Green on a bad day. 8/10 times Green wins. His best 100m is 10.08 to Walker's 10.23. There are 30 players in the NFL who have PB's better than 10.23.
@@sydboskiThey are all garbage atheletes tbh. America is full of garbage athletes. The avg joe on the streets of Cameroon is a better natural athlete than either of these bozos.
I'd have really enjoyed seeing Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson run against each other. I know they were contemporaries at some point before Bo got hurt.
Actually that is because he came from a very humble beginning. He could not afford weights and did push-ups, sit-ups, and lifted bricks to make his gains. Amazing athlete. Fact not fiction.
@@mk5rob42 My comment was referring to in general, not just straight line speed. And we don’t know if Bo wouldn’t have beat him. If it was setup at that time my money is on Bo.
@chefmarcos well Bo was a better football player and obviously baseball. But remember Walker was very good at MMA, even as an old man. Bo was not a hundred meter guy, he was a 40 yard guy, I'd bet the house on Walker, especially after he beat Green. Green was the fastest guy in the NFL, this is the only race I've ever seen him lose.
@@mk5rob42 You're right. Bo's 100-meter time in high school was 10.44 seconds, and he ran a 10.39 at Auburn. Walker ran a 10.23 and a 10.10 (wind-aided & not official) 100-meter in Athens in 1982.
I need to post the 1990 competition that Willie Anderson, Gault, Barry Sanders and Deion Sanders were in...Comical how Gault and Anderson made everyone look like they were running in quicksand while Barry and Deion had a photo finish.
@lemontadams3029 Anderson wasn't an Olympic level sprinter but looked like it against both Sanders, Gault waa on another level, and then Anderson was on a 2nd tier and then everybody else.
@finnfinn7703 How could we possibly, or better said, how could YOU possibly know who was fastest when there wasn't an off season competition, until the 1980's? Would greene still be the fastest today?... Far from it. As far as I'm concerned, if they didn't kit the players out in full pads, cleats and helmets, then the race event should have been called "The NFL's fastest TRACK athlete" When they have the NHL's fastest competition, the players race in their pads with their sticks.
Not for nothing, but no need to defend Green, we all know how fast he was. I think the point here is that Herschel won this race and Green even said he pulled up because he knew he lost. Also, watch the race closely, Walker lead from start to finish (40, 60, 100). On a separate note, Walker and Jackson both had unbelievable blistering speed. Bo's legend is bigger than life, but the truth is Walker was faster and the better more durable college player.
Big ups to Green being honest, and not making any excuses. Herschel Walker once said "Bo Jackson nor Deion Sanders could ever beat me in a foot race, so I don't know how they were ever able to run 4.1 40s when I, myself, could never run anything close to that." He was alluding to those 4.1 claims for guys like Deion, Bo, etc are actually bs.
@@tramainesmith6067 There is a video with Deion in it which shows the actual written times for his 40 yard dash. Two time keepers clocked Deion at 4.27 secs and two others clocked him at 4.29 and 4.31. This was hand-timed so if you add the approximate 0.24 sec delay to get an estimated electronic time, that would be about 4.41 secs. That's fast but not top 10 these days. On an ESPN video which they uploaded to YT, Bo talked about his dash being right before track practice with an Olympian so he didn't want to do the dash at all and just entertained the people there with a not so serious 4.3 secs electronic time. He says his coach told him to stop playing with those people and get serious so Bo told someone to bring his bags outside because he was going to do his 40 and run out the door. There were people with stop watches and there was a proper electronic timing setup (most likely infrared beam like Brower speed gates). Bo went full speed through the next 40 and was out the door immediately before they could tell him a time. He said he found out after track practice what his times were. Supposedly some people who hand timed him had it as low as 3.9 secs or 4 flat but, according to what Bo was told, the electronic timing system clocked him at 4.09 secs. That's what he remembers he was told. I personally don't think he was as fast or faster than the current 60m world record holder and fastest recorded 40 yard dash record holder Christian Coleman who clocked 4.12 secs back in 2018, the same year he broke his own 60m record with a 6.34 secs time (Christian Coleman's 40 yard dash is on TH-cam too if you haven't seen it). I do think Bo could've definitely clocked 4.3 or maybe 4.2 has his peak but we don't have any record of his times other than word of mouth. With Deion, the card with his recorded times is still available.
@@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 Yeah, I've seen those official times of Deion, and I've heard that bull crap that Bo Jackson said about his "track practice times." I don't believe Bo Jackson's story any more than I believe in a Santa. Guys like Bo and Deion are the reason why people don't understand just how fast a 4.3 to 4.6 is. They have people thinking that those times are, somewhat, slow. Even a 4.7 is pretty fast for the average human being.
@@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 Yeah, sure. Deion ran a 4.41 40. Were you born this stupid or did you actually have to work at it? Your momma must dropped you head first on to concrete.
Anybody else think bringing back Superstars would be a slam dunk? Pair it with a refurbished This Week in Baseball and a modified Wide World of Sports. That was great television. How else for example would we keep up with figure skating, know who Teofilo Stevenson and Jean Claude Killy were?
Herschel claims to be a vegetarian and only eat one meal a day. He is also diagnosed with Dissociative Personality Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder). One or more of those personalities has to be eating some meat.
The title says 100 meters but it should be 100 yards. I thought he demolisted the world record when I saw the time. Anyway, great video. Hershel was 6'1'' 225lbs . Darrell was 5'9" 184. Hershel was a freak of nature to be that fast.
Ehhh .. Herschel was a Track star. In fact Herschel was an All American Track perfromer at the Univ of Georgia and won 7th place in the 1981 Div 1 NCAA 100m Finals. Not going to let you pretend Herschel couldn't take down Green with both in the same condition .. Not a fluke.
In an earlier response comment reply for this video [by kidmack3556] he noted the flailing arms of Green in the race which could have slowed down his running stride. I did a replay of the video at half-speed and noted that Walker's arm work, while running, was more in keeping with proper sprinting form, while Green did, indeed, flail his arms while running, which contributed to his slower running time.
Greene just got faster the farther he ran and could maintain his top speed for a good distance. Which is why he was able to run people down from behind so easily he gained speed the longer he ran. One thing is. Nobody never out ran Greene on the football field
That’s a lie, walker never needed steroids, where’s your proof? That man was known to do hundreds of pushups and sit-ups a day. They say he never lifted weights and he was always seen jogging, teammates said he ran 10 miles a day . Now 30 years later , you wanna talk shit about him🤨
No football player runs 10 miles a day or does thousands press ups because are completely useless training methods for football,a game of power and strength.And of course herschel abused steroids,every player in 5he NFL did and still does since there was no testing.
@@scarred10 ok mr. Wizard, you must personally know Herschel Walker, spent much time with him over the years. This was reported years ago and many people who know him, stated that was hi routine because he was obsessed. So per usual , like most you tubers, you really don’t know shit, just admit it🤨
Herschel Walker 100m... fastest time: 10.23 Bo Jackson 100m ..... fastest time: 10.44 Those are Official Times, electronically timed .. not a stopwatch.
@@cornfilledscreamer614 While it's widely known that Bo Jackson is a homosexual, he is one professional football player that I actually never had sex with.

It is pretty clear Darryl was only running at 60%, he wanted his two points and that was it. If this was the NFL's fastest man he would have beat Walker by 20 yards.
Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker are two of the greatest athletes I’ve ever seen. Seeing them play football and baseball(Bo) as a young man left me slack jawed. Growing up as a Lions fan I was constantly amazed at the stuff Barry Sanders managed to do, as well!
I saw Herschel Walker when Georgia played Miss. State here in Starkville, MS. MSU had a great defense and held Walker to 5 yards a carry! No long runs! Carried the ball 40 times for 200 yards though. Could slow him down by gang tackling, but could not stop him. Awesome player and person!
I was going to say that's world record time ... but then I rewinded the part and looked at the words again. It's not 100 meters, it's 100 yards! Otherwise, Herschel Walker would be the fastest man on Earth. Even Usain Bolt's record is 9.58 Yards are similar to meters, but it's ultimately a huge difference. 100 yards is 91.44 meters. Walker was an incredible and inspirational athlete though.
Not even close he got smoked in '90 competition by Gault and Willie "Flipper" Anderson and was in a photo finish with Barry Sanders for 3rd can't remember who edged who but time was exact same.
Bob Hayes, the WR . In 1962, the University of Miami invited him to a meet on their campus, where he tied the world record of 9.2 seconds in the 100-yard dash.
Darrell was the type of guy where if he lost once he’d train harder to not lose twice. Herschel had the attributes but he wasn’t the best if the best in his skill position
The big fella was a proper world class sprinter. Used to watch him run on TV. A shame Athletics lost him to American Football. But can't blame the guy he became a professional sportsman, to earn a living. And make his money whilst he can still compete.

Herschel Walker was such a stud. He was the kind of running back that could carry four or five guys down the field with him. Strength and speed, what a combination for an NFL running back. He definitely had world class speed but I had no idea his start was so fast.
Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson were extraordinary football players in the 1980s.
No he didn't have world class speed.
His best 100m legal time was 10.23. At that time the world record was 9.93.
There were a lot of people running sub 10.1 in that era.
@ngc-fo5te but how fast were they at his weight? If he was into sprinting only, would he lose 30lbs?
@@ngc-fo5te You must be a hoot to hang with...jk
Herschel is nothing but muscles! Original Beastmode!
Herschel Walker was so underused with the Vikings. They give up all those picks but yet they didn’t want to feature him.
Agreed. Never made any damn sense
Was not that they did not want to feature him. They took a deep I-tailback, and and brought him into a pro set, and did not revamp their entire offense around him. Walker was dynamite if you started him 7 yards deep and ran him between the tackles. But he was stiff and ineffective without that running start and if he had to go wide.
@@bauerj3398 Also Burns did not want him. My Cowboys made out like bandits on that trade!!
How Burns was not fired still shocks me. Mike Lynn obviously made a foolish trade, but you may as well have used him in the I and use him often....
Being a boys fan, still thinking the vikes top brass for the trade.
Great athlete and a humble interviewee.
don't forget: a total scumbag of a person
And political nutjob.
Hershel Walker not only beat the great Darrell Green he smoked him
All those NFL's Fastest Man competitions that Darrell Green won were 60 yards long. The 100 yard dash isn't Darrell's best event. The opposite was always true for guys like Herschel Walker and Willie Gault; neither was very good in the 60 but excelled in the longer 100. Fun fact: in the very first NFL's Fastest Man Competition, Willie Gault knew he would struggle in a 60 yard dash so he lobbied to have the event extended to 100 yards but lost the appeal.
Actually really not the case since Darrell actually ran faster than Herschel in the 55, 60, 100 and 200 in his sprinting career BUT Herschel was in superior shape and this competition included about 12 different events so he held up better in one of the last events.
@@ricosuavepr1207 I guess what I really should have said is that Gault and Herschel would fare better against Darrell in the 100 than they would in the 60. Not saying they'd win but it'd be a hell of a lot closer. Gault and Herschel both hated the 60 because it's simply not their kind of race and Darrell knew it.
I always said Willie would beat DG in the 100

Wow - what class both Darrell and Herschel demonstrated, this is back when Athletes really were role models
Before there was Bo Jackson, there was Herschel Walker
I'd forgotten about this one. I was in HS at the time. The only other race I've seen Darrell Green lose was a 40 yard dash around age 50 to an active NFL WR and it wasn't by much
But it's funny they show this charity race, but why don't they show the worlds fastest man contest where Darrell Green beat Herschel Walker, and Darrell never lost a worlds fastest man contest. Just saying
@@jeromemccowan1962 exactly.
What was his 40 time?
Superstars was such a cool thing
Very impressive for Herschel, especially considering his size. I didn't think anyone in the NFL could outrun Darrell Green in his prime.
There were a few - try Ron Brown. Green beat him on the track but Brown got him on the field in game conditions.
@@christophertracy2807when? On the kickoff return when Brown had the angle to outrun him.
It is impressive, but remember this was the 100 yard dash. The 40 yard dash was a very different result and IMO, is more relevant for football players. But I agree, still very impressive.
If not mistaken didn't they already do a longer race before this and Darrell ran off and left everyone, he clearly pulled up, but Walker is a beast, the 40 is a different ball game.
@@canadiansenseiwalker was ahead since the beginning bro.
Much respect to all who competed in this. Even those knowing they weren’t going to win but still displayed some athleticism. Mad respect to all of them shown here
This is so old school it's the 100 YARD dash not meters!
When they had these events, shot putter and general bad ass Brian "Barney" Oldfield was interviewed before a sprint and said "I'm a few shades too light to win this event."
One of the most undderated athletes of all time, Walker. As a Cowboys fan and huge fan of his, I thank him for winning the Cowboys 3 Super Bowl as well
Bruhhhhhh,😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
What a classy response by Herschel. How humble. I always liked him.
Green wasn't even trying. Lmao
Walker being classy for sure.
I would have loved to see Green vs Tony Dorsett in a head to head race - like Hershel, I think Tony could have gotten him as well
Would be great if this came back in 2024. The Superstars, or any of the celebrity sporting events.

I'd have really enjoyed seeing Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson run against each other. I know they were contemporaries at some point before Bo got hurt.
To think Olympic guys struggle to run 6.4 in a 60 is crazy these guys are freak athletes
"Her-shul" was extremely strong but often bragged that he rarely lifted weights.
Naturally strong,gifted ath-a-leete....
Actually that is because he came from a very humble beginning. He could not afford weights and did push-ups, sit-ups, and lifted bricks to make his gains. Amazing athlete. Fact not fiction.
9.37 is SMOKING!!
Wouldn't that be a world record?
@@timmer3724 That was 100 yards not meters

So who does Herschel think represents the werewolf or vampire in this race s/?
The only man I’ve ever seen (Herschel) that comes close to Bo Jackson. Bo is still a notch above, but Herschel is special.
Lmao 😂 not a 100 yards or meters. Herschel wins that race against Bo. Bo wins a 60...
@@mk5rob42 My comment was referring to in general, not just straight line speed. And we don’t know if Bo wouldn’t have beat him. If it was setup at that time my money is on Bo.
@chefmarcos well Bo was a better football player and obviously baseball. But remember Walker was very good at MMA, even as an old man. Bo was not a hundred meter guy, he was a 40 yard guy, I'd bet the house on Walker, especially after he beat Green. Green was the fastest guy in the NFL, this is the only race I've ever seen him lose.
@@mk5rob42 You're right. Bo's 100-meter time in high school was 10.44 seconds, and he ran a 10.39 at Auburn. Walker ran a 10.23 and a 10.10 (wind-aided & not official) 100-meter in Athens in 1982.
People forget that Bo Jackson missed out by one spot of making the 1984 Olympic 4 x 100 relay team
He could burn.

@finnfinn7703
How could we possibly, or better said, how could YOU possibly know who was fastest when there wasn't an off season competition, until the 1980's?
Would greene still be the fastest today?... Far from it.
As far as I'm concerned, if they didn't kit the players out in full pads, cleats and helmets, then the race event should have been called "The NFL's fastest TRACK athlete"
When they have the NHL's fastest competition, the players race in their pads with their sticks.
HERSCHEL!!! Best athlete to ever live.
Not for nothing, but no need to defend Green, we all know how fast he was. I think the point here is that Herschel won this race and Green even said he pulled up because he knew he lost. Also, watch the race closely, Walker lead from start to finish (40, 60, 100). On a separate note, Walker and Jackson both had unbelievable blistering speed. Bo's legend is bigger than life, but the truth is Walker was faster and the better more durable college player.
Big ups to Green being honest, and not making any excuses. Herschel Walker once said "Bo Jackson nor Deion Sanders could ever beat me in a foot race, so I don't know how they were ever able to run 4.1 40s when I, myself, could never run anything close to that." He was alluding to those 4.1 claims for guys like Deion, Bo, etc are actually bs.
@@tramainesmith6067 There is a video with Deion in it which shows the actual written times for his 40 yard dash. Two time keepers clocked Deion at 4.27 secs and two others clocked him at 4.29 and 4.31. This was hand-timed so if you add the approximate 0.24 sec delay to get an estimated electronic time, that would be about 4.41 secs. That's fast but not top 10 these days.
On an ESPN video which they uploaded to YT, Bo talked about his dash being right before track practice with an Olympian so he didn't want to do the dash at all and just entertained the people there with a not so serious 4.3 secs electronic time. He says his coach told him to stop playing with those people and get serious so Bo told someone to bring his bags outside because he was going to do his 40 and run out the door. There were people with stop watches and there was a proper electronic timing setup (most likely infrared beam like Brower speed gates). Bo went full speed through the next 40 and was out the door immediately before they could tell him a time. He said he found out after track practice what his times were. Supposedly some people who hand timed him had it as low as 3.9 secs or 4 flat but, according to what Bo was told, the electronic timing system clocked him at 4.09 secs. That's what he remembers he was told. I personally don't think he was as fast or faster than the current 60m world record holder and fastest recorded 40 yard dash record holder Christian Coleman who clocked 4.12 secs back in 2018, the same year he broke his own 60m record with a 6.34 secs time (Christian Coleman's 40 yard dash is on TH-cam too if you haven't seen it). I do think Bo could've definitely clocked 4.3 or maybe 4.2 has his peak but we don't have any record of his times other than word of mouth. With Deion, the card with his recorded times is still available.
@@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 Yeah, I've seen those official times of Deion, and I've heard that bull crap that Bo Jackson said about his "track practice times." I don't believe Bo Jackson's story any more than I believe in a Santa. Guys like Bo and Deion are the reason why people don't understand just how fast a 4.3 to 4.6 is. They have people thinking that those times are, somewhat, slow. Even a 4.7 is pretty fast for the average human being.
I watched Green play a lot and he didn't seem that fast to me.
@@gmaxsfoodfitness3035 Yeah, sure. Deion ran a 4.41 40. Were you born this stupid or did you actually have to work at it? Your momma must dropped you head first on to concrete.
Anybody else think bringing back Superstars would be a slam dunk? Pair it with a refurbished This Week in Baseball and a modified Wide World of Sports. That was great television. How else for example would we keep up with figure skating, know who Teofilo Stevenson and Jean Claude Killy were?
Herschel claims to be a vegetarian and only eat one meal a day. He is also diagnosed with Dissociative Personality Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder). One or more of those personalities has to be eating some meat.
Maybe one of those personalities could actually form a sentence that makes sense ? 🤣

He makes no Olympic team with 10.08
The 10.08s was wind-aided.
Ehhh .. Herschel was a Track star. In fact Herschel was an All American Track perfromer at the Univ of Georgia and won 7th place in the 1981 Div 1 NCAA 100m Finals. Not going to let you pretend Herschel couldn't take down Green with both in the same condition .. Not a fluke.
In an earlier response comment reply for this video [by kidmack3556] he noted the flailing arms of Green in the race which could have slowed down his running stride. I did a replay of the video at half-speed and noted that Walker's arm work, while running, was more in keeping with proper sprinting form, while Green did, indeed, flail his arms while running, which contributed to his slower running time.
BTW Jose Canseco was a 40/40 guy. So he could run. But next to Green and Walker- NO CHANCE
Bo Jackson runs past all
Herschel was a tremendous athlete in his day. I read he didn't lift weights, but did an outrageous number of pushups and setups every day. Amazing.

I saw Herschel Walker when Georgia played Miss. State here in Starkville, MS. MSU had a great defense and held Walker to 5 yards a carry! No long runs! Carried the ball 40 times for 200 yards though. Could slow him down by gang tackling, but could not stop him. Awesome player and person!

Otherwise, Herschel Walker would be the fastest man on Earth. Even Usain Bolt's record is 9.58
Yards are similar to meters, but it's ultimately a huge difference. 100 yards is 91.44 meters.
