I used to love Carl Lewis as a kid, thinking Ben Johnson was the bad guy.
Now I'm older, and I see how Carl conducted himself, how he celebrated and blamed other factors when he lost, how he celebrated, I realised,.... he was a tool.
Someone like Calvin Smith, now he was a class guy, much more a role model.
I hear what yer saying about Calvin Smith but its competition.
They do things to get a psychological edge & Lewis was a competitor.
Look how he behaved n compare it to Maurice Greene or Dwain Chambers n ask yerself, was Lewis really a tool or was he just a high quality competitor ?
Lewis had Leo rising, meaning he felt compelled to grab the spotlight. Calvin Smith almost certainly had a different ascendant. As a neutral viewer, I don't mind the Leo theatrics, it makes for better television. And is probably why even today people look up Carl Lewis videos but not Calvin Smith ones.
I agree wholeheartedly with you, although in my case I've never really liked Carl despite his achievements. He was the Barry Bonds of T&F sprinting obviously b/4 Bonds gained prominence in MLB. Awesome talent but was a polarizing condescendingly arrogant personality. Calvin Smith and Robson Da Silva (who didn't run in this particular race but who did run in the 1988 Olympic 100m final) were truly two class guys who played by the rules, competed cleanly, and didn't take PED's and were humble and gracious. The fact that they went as far as they did in their careers is a testament to how truly classy these guys were. The psychological edge that some on this post allude to was in the case of both Lewis and Johnson chemically induced. Not so for Smith and Da Silva. Also, it should be noted that at 11:35 of this video Johnson's right foot is shown clearly touching the line of Lewis' lane and should have been disqualified.
@@crismaracana2824 There are no line infringements in the 100 meters, because you can't shorten the distance to travel by stepping outside your lane on a straight. Only if you hinder another athlete you can get disqualified, but that clearly wasn't the case here. Even in the 200m and the 400m you CAN step on the outside lane, just not the inside lane.
Couldnt agree more . Lewis when he was winning was a narcissistic tool . When he was losing he would blame anything from the track to the spectators .
super bello e super fantastico
Beautiful race. Always great to watch C.Lewis' beautiful technique. But the celebration is just over the top.
Vintage Ben Johnson
Calvin Smith, clean runner, true champ... 👍

IT was at this moment that Ben decided to get back on the Stanozolol for the upcoming Olympics.
This is track & field! When the heavyweights used to line up and battle any place, any time, anywhere...
You do have a point
@@Haraka111 Now it's about agents, lane draw, branding...business. I understand that track athletes have little to no opportunities to make a living through running, but USATF Nationals during an Olympics or Worlds year can't be the only time we see great match ups
@@gazzelle4 we have excellent chances of making a living... You just can't depend on others.. track and field got me through college for free.. I've flown over the Pacific Ocean swimming in the Atlantic Ocean swimming in the Gulf of Mexico all because of track and field...Going to a prestigious high school because of track and field all true.. graduated from that high School because of track and field... Now as far as direct influences of making a living.. I just had to be a little innovative.. I'm going to tell you this man once they start betting on races and track and field.. and races end up in Vegas.. that's when track athletes will get paid directly.. what as far as indirectly. I am a teacher today because of track and field.. get paid every 2 weeks
@@Haraka111 My comment was more in reference to the average professional track & field athlete not being able to make a consistent living through track & field. The women have recently illustrated that. It sounds like you're speaking more on the opportunities that track & field has afforded you.
@@gazzelle4 I did go to a prestigious high School because of track and field, I have a diploma from that high School,,,I went to college because of track and field... I am a teacher today because of track and field. So that's indirect influence.. as far as direct influences.. some people are trainers,, some people are models, some people do luck up and sign contracts... It's just the truth.. USA track and Field should do better.. all of the millions of dollars that USA track and Field is worth they should offer some stability in finances... I think you're right
Put in Robson Da Silva instead of Chidi Imoh and you have the Olympic final lineup!
Magnetic video tape really was an inferior technology
It was a month before Seoul
Hallo.Great Run.Great time 9.93.3-4 weeks before IO in Seoul.Am waithing for more Carl King Lewis.Merci.Yanks.
Carlos lewis era fera.
Bento Johnson turbinado
Yep Lewis was a dope duo fool ...then again so was Johnson ...
1:31 Ben Johnson -starts- *flys off the screen*
Don’t worry Ben you will get revenge in Seoul..
For three days maximum.

Sono bravi
Ben wasn't on the Stanozol Replacement Therapy there.
9:86 while on a vegan diet taking nothing more serious than cough medicine as a PED.
How good would Carl Lewis have been if he got on the dianobol like Linford Christie or the stanozol like Ben Johns ?
The heavy anabolics.
Glad he got the 100m world record but he deserved the long jump world record more than anyone in history. 11 years unbeaten & he has something like the 20 biggest jumps outa the top 30 all time.
CarL Lewis was a special one n most of all he was a great competitor.
I hear what you're saying bro.. Christy got caught with nandrolone... But just relax and look at the race... like you not in the race so.. just enjoy the race
Yeah vegan diet at age of 30 makes you break world records and also a lot faster than eating meat in your 20s and that cough medicine was found at Deloach's and 2 other athletes urine samples during the US trials 1988 as well. I guess Lewis, DeLoach and the rest they all suffered from the same "cold" huh? Lmao. 😂😂

Wats so funny ?
Yer giggling like a giddy schoolgirl who thinks she proved something.
Spit it out, no need to swallow on my behalf.
😏
@@SPIDERM0OSE Use your brain. I know it's something you usually don't but make an exception lol
@@martifrey3357
Use MY brain ?!
Says the dipshit giggling like she discovered Carl Lewis using cough medicine, under a post I made about Carl Lewis using cough medicine.
Stick to swallowing in future Martini.
Carl Lewis and his sister were obnoxious. Carol acting like she won the race herself.
SHE WAS HAPPY FOR HER BROTHER,,,,AND ???
May the best drugs win.🥴
Io c ero...ero piccolino
11:25
It was at this moment that the British Olympic Committee decided that Linford needed to drink more "Ginsing Tea" & drink it more often, along with increasing his Nandrolone dosage.
😏
Bird legs carl
Puro garrobo le hizo ben johnson
Carl Lewis did not become a vegan before 1990-1991, so here he still ate meat.
And as a vegan he "only broke 1 personal record - 100 metres in 9.86 = world record. Yet, as a vegan, he delivered the long jump series in history.
A month later in the olympic final Lewis ran 2 hundreds of a second faster while Johnson ran 21 hundreds of a second faster.

Did you think that before you looked up this video.. just a question and before you watch this video no less than four times..
