🗞️ News from the Olympic world: oly.ch/News - Спорт
for a population of 25 million. Australia has done incredibly well to be consistently in the top 10 on the medal table along with countries with populations far larger. Come on Aussies do us proud!
Hungary, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Cuba have done better per capita in summer Olympics. Actually, considering how much money we give sport in this country I'd argue we under perform. So many of our athletes underperform and choke especially our swimmers. Ariarne Titmus' gold was the first woman since 2008 to win an individual gold. Horton and Chalmers in 2016 were the first men since 2004.
And look at how Great Britain dominates us now. Even in swimming they're equal.
And New Zealand has done way better. 46 golds compared to 150 for Australia despite only having 20% of our population. Australia should have 230 golds population adjusted.
We need to stop patting ourselves on the back and admit the failures.
Countrys like China, Korea, USA, Canada etc have breeding grounds for kids to just grow up and play table tennis or something 6 hours a day without realising they're being groomed into the next Olympic star for their country
They really should have mentioned that the guy in 10. also dived the highest score in diving history which still stands
Also the pressure. Needed a perfect dive and the highest score in history to win and nailed it.
Doesn't stand anymore.
I honestly thought that should have been a lot higher.
I wish I was alive to watch the Bradbury race. Sitting there thinking he’s gone for all money, then all the other guys fall over and he wins. I would’ve gone absolutely nuts if I’d been able to watch that live. Amazing
It was amazing! I've always felt for Alisa Camplin being second but it feels so Aussie having Bradbury as our first. "Doing a Bradbury" is one of my favourites.
I dont know if anyone from Australia was watching. Do amy Aussies watch the winter olympics? I was alive but didnt even know it was on as it was assumed he would lose.
It was awesome to see. Australia loves Bradbury, and he’ll always be special to our country.
We did go completely nuts.....it was one of the most glorious and 'oh so Australian' moments in Olympic history! Will never forget that night.
This one's for you aussie from Vietnam. Congratulations on win as host city of 35th olympic in Brisbane
was not ready for the belly flops at 0:54
Really shows how sports evolve
Let's go Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺
🏀⚽️🎾
Sally Pearson worked so hard for years to be that great and her reaction to the gold was priceless..
Mate Bradbury is an icon In Australia. Should have been #1
I used to attend the primary school which Betty Cuthbert attended. She donated 2 of her medals to our school. It was very cool seeing them in the office! Rest In Peace.
Matthew Mitcham's dive doesn't get the credit it deserves. It should be one of the great moments in Olympic history, not just Australian.
"You want the gold? No problem just nail the highest scoring dive in Olympic history."
"Hold my beer."
Australia always there. Important part of the Olympic Movement. Only 1 of 3-4 nations to compete at every Summer Games. And Brisbane 2032.🇦🇺
PROUD TO BE AN AUSSIE 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Cathy Freeman, the greatest.
For me it should be:
1. Kieran Perkins winning the 1500m freestyle in Barcelona and Atlanta and becoming the first Australian to win back to back golds at this distance
2. Dawn Fraser winning 3 100m freestyle titles in a row at the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Olympics. The only Aussie to have won 3 individual golds in a row.
3. Steve Hooker becoming the first Australian to ever win a gold in the Pole Vault in a World record of 5.96m (at the time).
4. Emma McKeon becoming Australia’s greatest female swimmer with 11 Olympic medals 5 of them gold
5. Australia beating the USA in the men’s 4x100 freestyle relay in Sydney 2000.
Emma McKeon should enter in the list if this video needs to be updated with current results.
@@lexsoft3969 I agree.
2032 brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
let's go Aussies lets see us win the medals this year!!!!
🦘🇦🇺
4 gold medals today! 🇦🇺🇦🇺
10 de 10 para Sally Pearson 👏😆
Take your marks AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
Keiran Perkins, 1500m freestyle, 1996. Godly swim
Matthew Mittcham should be no 1. Because his win was so unexpected
Love from India🇮🇳
Cathy Freeman 🖤💛❤
So proud to be Aussie 🇦🇺
Thought Anna Mears gold in London would have been on here.
Jakara Anthony’s gold in Beijing 2022 is another Aussie achievement
Congratulations to all participants 🙏
You forgot Peter Norman getting silver in the 200 meters in 1968. Okay, he did not beat Tommie Smith, but he set an Australian record for the 200 meters that STILL STANDS 53 years later , PLUS he gave Tommie Smith and John Carlos the idea to make use of the one pair of gloves they had , for their iconic fist in the air protest on the awards stand (they only had one pair of gloves, so Peter Norman suggested they each wear one glove ).
Black Power Salute 🤜🤜
It's absurd Norman isn't 1 or 2 on this list.
The Land down under! 👏
Mighty Aussies
Very Beautiful👍👍
There's plenty not there that could be....Shane Gould, The Oarsome Foursome, Steve Hooker and of course, lots more swimming. I've forgotten heaps more too.
Dawn Fraser should be included as one of the greats, as she won 100m freestyle three times in a row : 1956, 1960, 1964.
She is included in the video
@@hermixtonen I only read from the description where I didn't find her name, and didn't watch all.
As long as there are Matthew Mitcham and Sally Pearson in the description, I felt I didn't need to watch.
After you telling me, I find she is at number 7. Thanks
She is one the greats.
And no Kieran Perkins the first Australian to ever win the 1500m Freestyle at two consecutive Olympics that is blasphemy that it wasn’t included! It was more memorable than some of these performances in my opinion I am sorry.
And the first to break the Minute time for the 100
But WHY was Kieran Perkins not here? I just think that was the most memorable gold medal of my life, after Cathy Freeman. I also wish they'd shown more of her, instead of that weirdly edited finish and the comment about the suit. That was.....interesting.
YES AUSTRALIA!!! LETS KEEP ON DOING SPORTS THE ONLY WAY WE KNOW HOW TO (very very well, especially with a population of only 25million people)
new number one for me Jessica Fox gold cause she's from Western Sydney
Agree that Mathew Mitcham and Cathy Freeman are worthy of note but also need to include the Mens 4x100 m relay swim in Sydney and Kieren Perkins 1996 1500m swim. Jon Siebens 200m butterfly and Debbie Flintoff-King's 400m hurdles - both from the 1984 Olympics - are also noteworthy.

how has this not got 1 mill likes
Let’s go Australia !
Let's gooo Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺
After some years australia will be the beacon of sports in the world.
I hope so ! Well where I’m at in Sydney.. fitness is the culture😂
1996 Atlanta Just making the final Kieren Perkins wins Gold in an outside lane in the 1500M
Yeah I am thinking the same thing. Its 25 years ago today since he won that race from lane 8 in Atlanta. That was the greatest 1500m swim of ALL TIME!
@@roxy5588 Explain to me how swimming 14 mins 56 seconds is better than swimming 14mins 41 seconds. Even for us Aussies thats moronic thinking.
Well done Australia 🇦🇺 🇬🇧
4x100 best of all time!!!!!
wb cate campbell.... and the 4x100 free swim relayy
Wow I would have thought Jodie Henry winning gold in the 100m Free at Athens would have got a mention.
Aussie Aussie Aussie, 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 🇦🇺!
Brisbane 2032
Obvious from the comments 10 is not enough!
Bring on 2032 Brisbane
Hey do another one and have the men’s basketball bronze at Tokyo at no. 1
aussie aussie aussie oi oi oi

edit - not first, but thats ok :)
Hope this time bharat does well....we had a very sad 2016....but this time hope for best 🥞
@@johnny123-v6q my wish....I think its democracy and we all are free to write our suggestions ..hope you understand brother 🙂
@@dr.sagarguru9356 What is a bharat?
Pete Norman, 1968. It's ridiculous that it is not 1 or 2 on this list. It's is one of the all time most significant Olympic moments and Peter Norman's dignity in his role in that moment should be celebrated.
🙏 🙏 🙏
Green and Gold 🟡🟢
Do a bradbury
congrats australia our country now has more power
Number 1 should be sally perason . 100 hurdle winner. beating all those black girls in athletics/sprinting is a phenomenal achievement.
Bradburry😂
One of the most important parts of skating is to stay on your feet. He was the only one who did. Tactics, my friend, tactics.
Not to mention the races he had to win to get there in the finals in the first place
McKeown, Dean Boxall!!?
Imagine if NZ had voted to remain as part of NSW. We woulf be absolutely unstoppable.
no thanks
They would have slowed us down, been an anchor.
Can You do Puerto Rico

For me :

2. Sally Pearson : 100m hurdle London 2012
3. Cathy Freeman : 400m Sydney 2000
4. Duncan Armstrong : 200m freestyle at Seoul 1988
5. Jon Sieben : 200m butterfly at Los Angeles 1984
in that order.
Spelling mistake!
bradbury was robbed of #1
Well if Cathy had fallen over he would be No 1!
Stephen Bradbury should be number 1, stop the aboriginal pandering
Classic Tigers fan. Classless racist bogan.
