The greatest athelete of ALLTIME period. The best sprinter of his time. And the greatest long jumper of ALLTIME. Went undefeated for 10 years in the long jump. From 1981 to 1991. When Mike Powell did that amazing freak jump in Tokyo at the 1991 world championships.
Won 4 consecutive golds in a row at the Olympics. Nobody else has even won 2 in a row. In total 9 Olympic gold medals and 1 silver. LEGEND.
The greatest athlete of all time, period, is the current world record holder in the decathlon.
But Lewis was absolutely amazing, dominant, and incredible to watch. One of the all-time legends.

Carl Lewis was all over my walls in that amazing red track & field outfit. He inspired this girl, just to do me one T&E 100. I had asthma but I always dreamed to breath long enough to be fast. Like Carl Lewis. Like FloJo, like JackieK. Love you all - thank you for inspiring.
I just bought a carl lewis poster. I'm training for the miami marathon. Carl Lewis is the 🐐
The two greatest athletes all time Mr bolt and Mr lewis , what these two accomplished will never be repeated in our lifetime, if ever, study the facts.
Carl Lewis - as his coach said, was quite unique, a few people like him in the world - god given talent and physique, discipline and intelligence. A great role model indeed.
Legendary.
19.81, 9.99, Gold long jump, WR 4x100 those times would win many many races to this day.
For all those who go on about drugs and "secret tests" and so on, Lewis competed at an elite level from 1979 to 1998. That's a mighty long time to go undetected.
Lewis was an exquisite athlete. The only thing that bugs me about his past was that he never landed a long jump correctly. If Lewis landed like Myricks, Lewis would be the WR holder today.
He didn't go undetected. Read this, for instance: www.theguardian.com/sport/2003/apr/24/athletics.duncanmackay
and then the u.s. mafia sets up johnson as the scapegoat when no one was doping as much as the u.s. americans
Oh, please. The "stimulants" he tested for are in cold medicine. His LEVEL of detection is not even considered a POSITIVE test now. Cold medicine stimulant at low levels is not the same thing as using furazabol and stanozolol. buddy. You are wallowing in some serious delusion.
wewewewewe what, you seriously think he wasn't on roids in cold war america?
Yes. He was't. You don't know anything about this subject. I do.
wewewewewe lol i guess that settles it
I'd always wanted Bolt to have a bash at the long jump 😜
Bolt too heavy
So true that might have helped him longer in his sprinting career.This however depends on the wisdom of his coach handling them speaking from experience and as a coach.
He was better than Bolt as the word Athlete. Lean tall and light also his times were good enough to still win today
I needed salt with my chips so I watched this
😂😂😂 seasoning
So many butt hurt Ben Johnson fans are here in comments section
WHY IS THE COACH ALMOST NAKED??
8:48 would the italian have been disqualified?
i guess not if carl wasnt in seoul final
I use to look up to him then I realized how arrogant he was. It didn't bother me he was a doper (As I feel they should all be allowed to "Juice up") what bothered me was how materialistic, arrogant and what hyporcrite he was .
He’s like penis too. I’ll play with own but that’s where it stops : Carl will go further
@@patricksweeney5308 ur post is three years old and i dont expect you to reply after all these years but i dont know why you post their sexual preference as if it is relevant to the sport they dedicate their lives to
all the best
If anti-doping regulations had been strictly enforced, Calvin Smith would have left the 1988 Seoul Games as the Olympic 100 meters champion and world-record holder.
Calvin Smith finished fourth behind Ben Johnson, Carl Lewis and Linford Christie. Today he is the only man among the first five finishers in Seoul untouched by a drug scandal.
Ben Johnson was hustled out of Seoul after testing positive for the steroid stanozolol following his victory in a world-record 9.79 seconds.
It was revealed in 2003 that Carl Lewis had failed three drugs tests for stimulants during the 1988 Olympic trials. Under the rules of the time he should have been banned from the Games but the results were covered up by the U.S. Olympic Committee after it accepted his plea that he had innocently taken a herbal supplement.
Christie failed a test for the stimulant pseudoephedrine after the final but was cleared on a split decision by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) medical commission when he argued that he had taken it inadvertently in ginseng tea.
If Carl Lewis had been banned from the Games and Linford Christie disqualified, Smith would have been next in line for the gold medal and his world record would have stood once Johnson's times were scrubbed from the books.
I am a Historian of the sport and I know what you said is 100% facts.
@Cheetah Car
Yeah, since then it has been removed from the banned list, but at the time, it was still on the banned list. So, anti doping regulations weren't followed at the time.
Tariq Luqmaan Trotter you’ll never be able to know so just let it go. Most if not all the top sprinters are doping, especially the winners so I wouldn’t waste time pointing fingers. You sadly sound like someone who really needs a life.
@@closjr86
Your personal opinions, narratives, and hidden agendas don't take precedence over facts, public documented records and concrete evidence, that has been proven true.
@@henryjohnson1505
Thank you, I definitely appreciate that. Anybody who actually follows the sport knows all this info is absolutely true.
lol
Lewis was a cheat, zero integrity.
Be quite and learn to read.
