So sad. I never heard that story beforem but man this guy was new and I told my brother that someone is so young just broke the world record, look what he will doe in the next olympics and when it came I was surprised he was not even in the finals. Now I know the story, I wish he could do his best in the coming years
you really should follow track more. How could you not know it!
@@Leonidas-eu9bb I was once a national champion in running 300m but then I became a film director never had time to watch news, just watching the Olympics that is how I heard of him suddenly breaking a record
Why would you play rugby, a notoriously physical tackle sport, when you are a peak speciment trying to make the best of both your career and earnings.
It was tag rugby. No contact
@@ruggedcrossrecords9480 Even without contact, you're doing lots of jumping and changing direction on uneven ground, with the possibility of hitting someone or being hit by accident.
@@DonLee1980 that wasn’t your original point. Way to go on the bait and switch
It's now water down the drain, and I feel so sorry for Wayde. Regardless of which kind of rugby code he played(it was touch rugby), it was very high risk doing it, and the injury he sustained proved that he would struggle to regain the same heights. In my humble opinion, it wasn't a wise thing to play "touchies" in his situation as a star athlete. It was a career ending incident.😢
@@ruggedcrossrecords9480 Stop being so damn rude
I had no idea his injury was because of some BS rugby game... That's such a shame 😢
Ya it was a charity touch rugby game in Cape Town. A friend of mine watching was horrified to seem appear on the field. But a common injury in rugby players most go on to resume form. Let’s hope for the best for Wade.
Bs? 😂
Just like Sydney, his faith is in Christ. Good or Bad, glory goes to God.
Still the greatest 400m runner of all time
lol no he just has the record def not the greatest that title belongs to karani James van niekierk basically a 1 hit wonder ran a wr never heard of again
No he isn’t. Michael Johnson is
@@sohambagchi5827 not even close, Fluke and one Hit 🤔 wonder....
@@tytiger7176 Yohan Blake must be a fluke too then since he dominated for a couple of years before injuries got the better if him . Van Niekerk has the holy Trinity of being World Champion, Olympic Champion and WR holder only the greatest athletes have all 3
Michael Johnson is the greatest 400m runner
His Knee Kerked and that's all she wrote...
Cheslin Kolbe his cousin is also insanely fast He plays rugby for the springboks our boys winning back to back world cups 4/8 world cups we have played in
And why did South Africa only compete in 8/10 rwc? The team was good enough for 91 and 87 but the country wasn't good enough.
@@Aneurin_Hunt The team was good hence them beating the all blacks 4 times in a row in 1940s. The apartheid boycotting stopped them from becoming good like good good
@@EL_za_Geography nah NZRFU sent an all-white team i 1949 since they decided to follow the racist policies that south Africa had. So they beat a weakened all blacks. Not saying that that era of springboks was awful but the abs had so much going against them. They could train on the boat when the travelled over, a believe the travel around South Africa was tough on them. Apparently south africa were good hosts and I think some of that may have negatively impacted them too but like this was so long ago. Rugby was so different comparissons to modern day is silly.
I just think south african fans can't claim the won more world cup in less number of comps as justification for being a "better" side whatever that means (like best team of all time type discussions). Apartheid is the reason the weren't at the first two rwc. So South African wasn't good enough to be a some world cups.
@@Aneurin_Hunt ja sorry thought that was implied
Carl Lewis. Not a record holder for long jump, but all time no.1
Michael johnson. Not a record holder for 400m, but all time no.1
Johnson set the 400m WR at 43.18 in 1999.
@@Watkinsstudio I know that. I mean the current world record holder. Thanks mate
2:25 and Fred Kerley!
After 43.03 he was a very special person capable of making large sums of money. He should have made his specialty his priority every minute of every day. Instead he failed to improve and has lost his moment. Same thing happened to me in a different way.
Head to Head. Michael Johnson beats van niekerk every time
Nope, he's injured
To the clowns 43.03 is a world beating time, how can that be considered a fluke.
Injury is what took him down.
Even with improve shoes and tracks and athlete seemingly running faster they are still far behind these world records. Look for the next generation of athletes who will get new technology in shoes and tracks, they will be the one who will break these world records
Considering his 300m WR and 43.98 in the world champs where he literally slowed down to a walk the following year he definitely wasn’t a fluke
WVN's 2nd best time is 43.48, a full .45 sec slower than the 43.03 he ran only one year later. Isn't that a cue for drug accusations? But with WVN , it's just crickets because, as we all know South Africans don't use drugs. Carina Horn😂😂
Seems like he’s more lurking in the shadows than standing in the background of track. He keeps improving post injury so what’s the point of counting him out?
Still the world record holder ...
Doesn’t mean anything
@@carlmorrow1600 Until someone beats his record - true
Why Not?
Bro come and gone like a comet
Micheal Norman AND Fred Kerley
Checkout new video about Kevin Mayer!

Did he get injured during that event? 😳 I thought he got injured during an athletics training session, that is why we coaches here are strictly forbidden to do any other activity that is not related to athletics and even more so when our objectives are clear, because when we do any other physical activity outside of the athletics sports context, that threatens our personal objectives as such and therefore we are forbidden to play soccer or do any other activity that is not athletics.
🥺Look at the consequences of this, if he had taken care of himself he would not be going through that situation, God willing he will recover soon and be in his best shape! This has already taught me to take care of myself more than ever.
Rugby!!! I'm sure his coach protested that decision
He's had a longer career than most he will be back like Kirani James
😂
Nah ain’t no coming back for him sadly
Playing rugby just for kicks is stupid.
Wasn’t just for kicks, it was for charity
@@wisforwinner You get the idea though. It’s totally dumb and so not worth it.
@@rjh6037 agreed, I just did not like the wording of your comment
It’s like the second most popular sport in South Africa and his cousin Cheslin Kolbe is a rugby player himself. Thhe guy just wanted to play a match for charity, I know Rugby is tough but hell he probably played Rugby many times prior to that injury
@@kiboma4209only takes one time to ruin you, what he did was not smart
He has one last chance at the Olympics and World Championships.
Olympics finished last month and he’s career is over 💀
@@APBCTechnique maybe he has a chance at the 2028 Olympics.
The poppping sounds really dont add anything to the video
You guys would lov to see Jesus in athletics
just a fool
Its Van Niekerk. Not Niekerk
The Jamaicans were doing sophisticated doping.All of them....
Shut he fuck up. What about the Americans the Jamaicans have genetics are you telling me that Jamaicans are doping at the age of 14?
Playing rubgy when you're a 400m track athlete is utterly ridiculous, literally asking for an injury. Everyone I know who's played rugby has broken something but they weren't world-class runners. Hopefully he recovers form but it ain't looking good.
Was a touch rugby tournament not contact rugby
@@kaylevanzyl2853 Still crazy for him. It would only take one fool getting enthusiastic or just clumsy to ruin your career., or just one wrong cut. His knees are accustomed to harsh lateral movements. His legs are his career. Gotta be smart and cautious. He can play rugby AFTER he's finished running.
Amazing what drugs can do
May be he should play NFL next time 🏈🏈🏈🏈
yes ... why would you play rugby .... sad
Dude popped out of nowhere dude was juicin’
His mom was an athlete as well. No juice
@@EvonneLindiwe Zombie
@@Five-Star-General 🤨
he had a terrible injury after his world record at a charity event, been in rehabilitation since them, to full recovery fingerscross
Negative. Just God given talent. Try running out of the outside lane where you have no visual in front of you. It adds an added rush of adrenaline.
One hit wonder.Fluke.He never came close to his record ever again ..
You can’t fluke a WR, you troll.
@@KX5Kat fluke
@@tytiger7176Obviously he hasnt had the chance due to an enormous injury. But you have the attention span of a goldfish and couldnt concentrate throughout one video😂
43.48 he ran in 2015 is pretty close to the record
Michael Johnson consistently ran fast times in the 400 m and broke the world record a couple times
After beating kirani 2016 the spice isle juju took him,hasnt able to bounce back at all for the 400 but he runs relays
The period he broke the world record he was not tested for drugs frequent enough.
What absolute rubbish. Go spam some other channel dude
Were you tested for drugs before you commented here? GTFOOH
says who? .foolish comment
