Carl Lewis had braces in 1987 when he had perfectly straight teeth in his early career (see his Wikipedia page). If you don't know, braces in seasoned athletes are a telltale sign of HGH use as it enhances the size of the jaw, thus growing the teeth apart. Just something to think about asides from the cold medicine or the herbal remedy or whatever he says it was next time he's questioned about it.
Not to mention, Lewis should have been disqualified from attending the games after failing a test. And then should’ve been disqualified from the race because he left his lane before the finish line. Plus he whined a lot.
Crossed by the greatest hypocrisy ever seen in sport. Carl Lewis, Linford Christie both Olympic gold medalists were caught in doping. The American with a physicist wide open by Anabilziantes (Florence Griffith-Joyner) was never caught. Ridiculous. For me Ben will be remembered for being an extremely strong runner with a strong start and after getting upright to increase his speed and be steady, something no sprinter in the world has ever done. Bolt starts poorly, but Bolt is on another level. Ben was 20 years ahead of his time.
Still.........doped or not.......the man flew.........he pushed the limits of human ability..........he took a drug but he didn't have a jet pack.........the feet still carried him..........I do not agree with doping.........I'm just saying the man was fast
Like the others. Only two runners in this final never been convicted of drug using and CARL LEWIS is not one of those two. Lol. Even the ex director of the IOC said that he controlled Lewis positive several times but the US team shredded those reports. While he admitted to long-time steroid use, they had their cycles worked out, and wouldn't have been so sloppy as to test positive during the biggest race of Ben's career. Someone made sure that he failed that particular test.
Ben tore his hamstring that year and his pharmacist had him taking steroids too close to the Olympics to help with the healing process. That's why it hadn't cleared his system before Seoul. All the other sprinters had more time to get their systems clear. They were all on drugs.
Other clean athletes? It's been proven time and time again that Lewis had failed tests but USOC had the power to have those positive tests swept under the rug. Anyone that thinks Ben was the only one on roids in that 100m final is beyond naive.
Anyone who thinks that because other athletes cheated, that reduces the shame and disgrace that Ben Johnson repeatedly brought to athletics as a result of his cheating, is beyond naiive.
Newsflash: Everyone in 100m finals in OI use PED. It's not just steroids as it used to be, it's a designer's mixture of many things. Some roids stay in system for a few days, some for few weeks. All the hard juicing is going on in the off season and preparations, but it is going on all the time. How to detect steroids in system, increased TRT ratio? There's an anti-dope for that too. PED providers are always a step ahead of commission.
Its all the same all over the world. What ever it takes to WIN! Every person has the same choices and all who do the dirty deed states well if I do not some one else will. So they sell there soul, honor and dignity. Just look at every ones government there is a prime example!
paula radcliffe commenting on doping. Please one of the biggest drug cheats there was. Pathetic yes Johnson paid the price for the entire drug cheating olympic movement. Brutal he wasnt teh only one and he wasnt the worst one. Its a sad state when you blame one guy for a problem that was throughout the athletic field.
0:46 Ben Johnson looked almost naturally superhuman. Even though certain people have separate access levels to steroids certain steriods could have helped him.
The thing I noticed as a casual observer was the definition in his muscles, striations like you'd see in a bodybuilder. Just picked him out of the starting blocks, pretty obvious something was very different there.
How do you feel now that you said that.. 7 years ago Carl Lewis is still the head coach at the University of Houston,, still a nine time gold medalist in the Olympics,, still living the same house,,, and you are still a non-american that's fire truck red mad... Roaming around in your own imagination and conspiracies and rumors... Man Ben Johnson fucking cheated bro simple as that.. and he got caught... And he cheated again.. this man cheated three times.. how the hell you defend that..
@@sinsin1697 stfu you hippie, the most vile, evil, cheaters in society keep all their accolades... doesn’t mean they’re not cheaters or innocent. I’m American, just not a dumb one.
STEVE CRAM: ATTENTION, we have not moved away athletes and their doctors have got more and more sophisticated in their techniques to avoid being caught, and you truly know that is the truth don't you ....
Ben that day would have beaten anyone ... Bolt or whoever. Just a great great exhibition of running..it's like a tank coming at you at high speed . Thank you sir for the memories. Also he is no Armstrong , who is a cheat!
Ben Johnson was the fastest. They brought him right down. Y didn't they do the same to Carl Lewis? Ben is still my winner. I loved to see him run. I don't care,what they say,he was a better sprinter than the American golden boy Carl Lewis.
Ben Johnson, Carl Lewis and 5 other athletes were all on drugs during that race.. so there was 1 person that wasnt on drugs...either Ben deserves the gold...or that 1 person deserves the gold and no one gets the silver or bronze.. idk why the fuck the olympics turn a blind eye on carl
yh right... these people only attacked ben because he was winning... the others who doped and did not win weren't treated as harsh as ben... all that happened the world preferred carl over ben and that caused all this
It is funny that people think that Johnson is a cheat, scrub, criminal etc.... but forget that to win against a doper you need to dope. Now note that Usain Bolt is faster than Johnson.
can you just face the fact that he cheated? why do you have to search a reason to not belive it? he already said that he cheated. And at the next Olympic games that he assisted he cheated again. Face it.
Poor Brits. Still sore over the American Revolution. Dear Lord. Clean up the sport and remove dirty athletes from the events no matter what country they're from.
Yes I have it you must be Hellen Keller. Just to fill you in Usain Bolt has broken(shattered) the WR his own multiple times, He has 6 Gold Medals and counting!!! Ben Johnson has 1 gold medal... Opps I mean ZERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Usain Bolt wins!!! Welcome to earth pal
why was this nonsense even made? tired old, give me a different view point already besides making #BenJohnson the scapegoat. He's no angel but he's not jesus either and shouldn't be carried to the cross for EVERY OTHER sprinters doping sins.
Carl Lweys was the best, there is no random choice , Marion Jones got cought too, and she gave a good speech about not to use that , To protect your young children from creepy substances , She admitted the use of weird science , Science is good but not for cheating ,, We want hard strong natural sports people, I see the look on Ben Johnson and he break my heart , He wanted to be a Champion, He can still be Champion, Im sure of it.
I don't fucking like the framing here. even if it wasn't so widespread, everyone knew that to stand on that podium meant you had to be taking something. to claim that "oh he's taking the spot of a clean athlete" is ludicrous
LOL I knew someone before the soup got cold would mention Carl Lewis... These non Americans old crazy... Old non-americans I guarantee you over the age of 50 and you're not born in America..

I call bullsh*t. Ben was only one of 6 dirty athletes in that race. Testing should be done by hair snips. It’s not. Because someone who makes these decisions doesn’t really care.
Love Ben Johnson despite drug test failure !

The greatest sprinter ever.
on drugs that is
@@StreetKingz4Life Nope. He spoke true.
ben johnson can at least be proud that he ran faster than the other competitors and he finished first, period.
dude, he failed a drug test beforehand, and it was covered up. He was on the juice. Calvin Smith was the deserving gold medalist
That would be Clavin Smith he should be the Olympic Champ, world champ.

THE BEN JOHNSON STORY,,,,,was short
my fave 100m runner. destroyed a field of dopers and he was only on winstrol - not even proper drugs.
Only?? Lmao
Mr VC Other athletes other ethnic groups can get much better quality steroids and Ben Johnson. The steroids access is not equal.
Every single sprinter on the start line was doping... Wasn't just Johnson. Yet he was hounded while Carl Lewis sits on his high horse.
And today 2021 they're allowed to smoke pot..lmao.
thats what we told Canadian kids at the time ;-)
It would be interesting to put all the finalists on the same drug like Ben and see who wins. Wouldn't it?
What the hell is Paula saying she's not even a sprinter she might have bee using some of the staff too!
Shut the up Carl cycled hgh braces at 26, failed numerous test for banned supps

Johnson brought himself down and the sport down. Just because Lewis does not have a clean history does not justify what Johnson did.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995 Could you be any more clueless? You know nothing of the man or what he went through so just shut the hell up.

Only one of the top 5 runners (and none of the top 3) was clean. Lewis, Johnson, Christie were all on some drug or another.
agreed, but like he obv took more than the rest. he desstroyed everyone
lewis wasn't even supposed to b there,he got tested for drugs ! smh! oh soo didi christi,steups
Watched it
Why didn't they mention the doping issues with Linford Christie. Oh I see.Its a British production..Fools..
He wa targetted so that Lewis could have it
This dude was on everythang
Lawrence Williams took stanozolol 6 times a week 3 months on and 3 months off. That was it
