Hicham 🐐🔥

O Pato!!!!!

He truly is a legend I always loved watching him (he always had a certain style of running) and even though I’m from GB I always wanted him to win x great man and also a wonderful commentator on bbc during the 2012 Olympics x love the man xx

Rui Silva last lap 51.3.

Simplt the best ever.

My favourite Olympic video ever. I come back to it regularly and still feel emotional. Hicham El Guerrouj is the greatest 1500M/Miler I have ever seen, and not a bad 5,000M as well. Bernard Lagat is a class act as well, and I have huge respect for him for his generosity to Hicham. They both had tremendous respect for each other and it showed. Bruce McAvaney's commentary and the music choice are just brilliant. He still holds the world record time: "Each lap run during the men's world-record race of 3:26.00, run by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco in 1998, averaged just under 55 seconds per lap."

el guerrouj is a saint, people should be wearing el guerrouj shirts lol

He's absolutely a legend.

No one worship humans in Morocco

من مصر. انتظرنا هذا اليوم طويلا. بعد تعثرين وسوء حظ. اخر فرصة واحلى فوز. ومن بعدها 5000 متر. فخورين بك

Hes My idol in track

Momentos inolvidables y emocionantes 🇲🇦😢

Not necessary memory is my hero

Никогда не видел спринтера так ровно торс держал.

El Guerrouj: Final 800m: 1:46.89, final 400m: 51.90, final 300m: 38.97, final 200m: 26.3 final 100m: 13.3 Rui Silva: Final 800m:1:46.3, final 400m: 51.3, final 300m: 38.5 Insane finish

"Or can Silva catch both of them?!" I thought at the top of the final bend that Silva was going to get them both and cause a huge upset. He was damn near last at the bell! Left it too late.

I want to be like El Guerrouj . He suffered a lot and failed many times, but in the end he achieved his dream. You may not be able to achieve your dream the first time, but if you continue and do not give up, be sure that you will achieve it.

El Guerrouj. One of the greatest middle distance runner. Africa whether nappy haired Ethiopian or straight hair Morrocans. El is greatest. Genius. Deserving young man. Amazing.

He's a legend ❤🇲🇦

“Greatest 1,500 meter runner ever. Nearly the greatest middle distance distance runner you will ever see”. Still true today. Beast

Only reynolds an johnson were mentioned in this race like they were the only ones in the line up

Loved watching him run. That style of his 👋

So proud of Hisham.

I tried to run like him when I was a kid, that was forgotten quickly

How fast would Bailey got if he got a decent start? 9.70?

This man is a living legend

Lagget the greatest silver medalist sadly

سباق أساطير يا للروعة بكيت كثيرا من شدة الفرح والخوف على هشاَم

🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🤲🤲

Hicham El Guerrouj just calming waiting until last 100m to turn the turbo run on. He sense it was slow race and his opponents didn't calculate a 1500 meter world record runner into their calculation. Hicham was hungry /too many dissapointments and ready for gold. It was all a tactical run. Smart and learned from his previous mistakes and fall. The GOAT of the 1500m.

4:57 HE'S A LEGEND

And the craziest thing about this race is that Frankie Fredericks also broke the old world record. 2 fastest times of all times in the same race. Amazing. And when you think, Pietro Menea's record of 19.72 stood unbroken since 1979 (btw MJ broke that one weeks before the Olympics in Athlanta. Just WOW!

boldon and fredereicks ran personal bests and national records adrenaline was pumpin like crazy in this race

Am room zimbabwe.irunfast.w we hat causins.people are different.

Me.ulton boldon

He was a pussy. Would not run against me.

За івана обідно дуже

Bailey>chicken Johnson

How fast would he have been if he had the facilities and tech today?

The greatest of all time.He is a real Legend

Greatest ever athlete in Modern Olympics history...

نعم سرف لهم الميدالية الذهبية و سرق الاراضي السلالية رفقة المديوري لبني جلدته من ايتام و مساكين بعدما تقوت شوكته

Johnson was on full peds here lol 💉

EPO, HG , Testosterona y Etc etc etc

Под стероидами выиграл 😂

هشام الأسطورة. ولا واحد يمكنه مقارعة هذا الأسد في المسافات المتوسطة. أن يبقى الرقم القياسي لمسافة ١٥٠٠ متر صامدا لعقود فهذا لا يمكن إلا أن يكون إنجاز أسد من أبناء المملكة المغربية الشريفة.

Mehn, Johnson had a peculiar running style, chest out, straight back. I think it is utilised in today's running

Who watched this hero in 2024 presses like 🎉

Michel Johnon was a great sprinter. However Donavan Bailey beat him. Afterwards Johnon started limping . Reminds me of a guy called Noah ( drama queen).lyles. great runners but bad losers . They cannot lose like a man.

انا اليوم أرى السباق والله دموع لان هشام يستحق وزهره فالاولمبيات تعتر
