To be the second greatest sprinter of alltime and the greatest long jumper of alltime is really something.

[@markusmeekma5874]

Wow! Such an amazing athlete. Beautiful to see him jump. Nowadays we don't see long jumpers who run so fast and smooth.

[@samson9098]

The greatest long jumper ever.

Four golds in the long jump in four consecutive Olympic games, that’s 16 years, that is CRAZY! Remarkable!

“It ain’t my job to be jumping on and off buses. I DO NOT do that, I am not Carl Lewis.” - Carter, Rush Hour

[@sasaha8389]

@Sheila Phillip Thats a quote from a comedy movie called "Rush Hour" with Inspector Lee (played by Jackie Chan) and Inspector James Carter (played by Chris Tucker). The movie is really good. I highly recommend you watching it

[@shem8560]

Carl Lewis won more gold medals in long jump than 100m wow amazing

[@Serve75]

Legend!

[@pradipbandyopadhyay9689]

Second to none;Lewis the legend!!

[@a1.ghost.]

It's weird seeing how consistently he was achieving 8.50m+ jumps, considering how those kind of jumps are rarely seen, even nowadays

[@victorthanosdrakopoulos2650]

Probably he was on juice. I was seeing some articles that athletics at that time they werent so rigid with drug testing, mostly because of politics. Now its different, its really strange.

[@supersai4198]

@@victorthanosdrakopoulos2650 you can't seriously compare drugs from the. To now. Do you know how advance drug exploits are these days? I would dare say 85% of the these type of atheltes are on PEDs

[@crabb9966]

@@victorthanosdrakopoulos2650 why didn't the other competitors also jump over 8,5 if the drugs was the reason

[@channelextreme5784]

My favourite..

[@concertom8774]

No doubt Carl is the king of long jump in human history.

[@eleftheriosavramidis3903]

Carl lewis was our supermann in the 80s,nothing compares with him he was very egoistic for winning everything,legendary was his behaviour against Daley Thompson the British olympic champ in Dekathlon they both couldn't smell each other!!!

[@octopusmagnificens]

Moscow 1980 could have been here.

[@whatyoudo9773]

KInda creepy how they show Powell collapse into the pit then Carl sitting there like nothing happened but maybe they werent friends, at least not at that moment. I met Carl at a bicycle show selling a funky combo-bike for workouts, he seemed to have about 2 seconds to talk to anyone unless you were buying, thats the feeling I got from him and I wanted so bad to get the chance to praise his achievments and talk to him but he just was not approachable, oh well it was still nice to see him, lot smaller than he looks on TV.

[@sahulianhooligan7046]

Why sprinters dont long jump anymore?

[@vvictoria6214]

That question proves why Carl Lewis is the greatest of all !!!

[@aspectoftheyeti1232]

My guy should’ve went for 5

[@tomgreeves9248]

Boggles my mind that he would be a track and field legend even if he had never sprinted.

undisputed legend... if usain bolt took up long jump, would he be as successful as carl lewis? 🤔

[@hanoman78]

would he risk spraining his ankle though?

[@Gro-485]

Yes

No, because long jump is a technical event.
