Especially since most of the footage on Seoul 88 on YT is from NBC unfortunately, it comes as a downright blessing to hear some British commentary after all that phony showbiz in-your-face and down-your-throat American style of presentation. As a European, I just find that too hard to stomach. "We'll be right back, after these messages..."
@@mondegreen9709 ha ha. This is Australian Monde. British commentator is quite bad too : not sure his name but the one who all you hear is the word "well". You are spot on regarding americans sport commentators.
@@sultrys2291 Sorry 'bout that, mate. Usually it shouldn't be too hard to distinguish an Australian accent from a British one, but in this case I must've missed it. My bad.
Extraño la ausencia de estos estos deportista de la Alemania Democtratia, URSS y demas de ese bloque en las competencias actuales, Eran un contrapeso a los USA.

...except for the horrible pronunciation of the Yugoslav girl's name.
"the Soviet with the long name" love it!
Olizarenko was the Klebb woman in From Russia with Love.
Rosa Klebb!
Olizarenko was injured, but way past her peak as well. This was her last international appearance.
Do you have the 1992 semis as well?
Great attempt by Olizarenko but bodies don't last forever.
Diane Modahl was clean but she came last.

All natural! not steroids involved.
