@@inyang9162 What makes you think he was drug user? Is becasue he was fast?Can you site the article or articles where it says he was on some kind of drug. I have never heard of this before. The only person I heard with drugs issue in connection with a race that Carl was in was Ben Johnson.
Dennis, MJ, Calvin Smith for the men Cheeseborogh, Inger Miller, Prandini for the women Give straight up CLINICS on turn running EVERY TIME hands down!!
Don't you love seeing that? Always have someone on your team (in your life) that motivates you and cheers for you like that, win or lose. That was just as beautiful as the race itself.
Agreed! The only one that comes close is that women’s world record 4 x 100 relay in London 2012. Carl Lewis caught the baton and moved it to his right hand in one motion faster & smoother than anyone I’ve ever seen. I’ve always loved this race!
glorious Nigeria, the third anchor for Nigeria late kayode oluyemi, was my class mate and roommate in secondary school,1982- 1984, may is soul rest in peace ( amen)
Yep, I was in the stadium for this (in fact all the T&F events). Fantastic evenings, and great to see legends in the flesh. Elsewhere Quincy Watts was the star of the program in the 400m & relay.
Are you deluded Mitchell and Lewis were known drug cheats. Mitchell got caught Lewis was a filthy drug taker who got away despite getting caught numerous times.
Yasssss! That was amazing! The excitement that Mitchell had when the pass was successful and Lewis is just absolutely phenomenal! No one could even catch Lewis. This team set a new world and olympic record.
Yes.. Faith Idehen, Tina Iheagwam, Christy Opara-Thompson and Mary Onyali. They ran the race of their lives. Our teary eyes on that day an indication of the joys that brought to our ailing hearts.
When watching the Olympics was fun....Now we have nonstop interviews and also bringing celebrity who are not athletes to make it their own shows when we want is watching this athletes compete.
I myself I see Carl Lewis as the best runner of all time his running composure like a horse knees high beautiful running composure and I yet to see that only in Carl Lewis
@@markrobinson3523 If youtube permitted me to send links, I would include it in the chat, but you can google Carl Lewis Doping and see results from reputable sites like Reuters, theGuardian, etc. Infact the race Ben Johnson won, 6 of the 8 runners all failed drugs tests. The US helped to cover it up. It is known as the dirtiest race in history.
Something that was never mentioned but Tom Hammond or OJ, this same group, Marsh, Burrell, Mitchell and Lewis ran the previous World Record of 37.67 in Zurich, August 1991. That was about 2-3 weeks before they replaced Marsh with Andre Cason at the 1991 Worlds, where the set the new record of 37.50, September 1, 1991 in Tokyo.
Yes, OJ commentated on sprint events at the 1976, 1984 and 1992 Olympics. OJ was an outstanding track athlete while at USC, even part of a world record relay team.
Two world record holders in one team. Later USA had it again I think with Green and Montgomery in one team. The best every was of course Asafa and Bolt in the same team.
I did...a lot back then. Consummate professional. No bullshitting. Great times back then at the Olympics. Better commentary. More time on basic, traditional events. Didn't take up DAYS with diving.
Carl Lewis era lento en el arranque pero cuando metía quinta y sexta velocidad era insuperable... bueno, en aquella época, porque después llegó al mundo su majestad USAIN BOLT .
I feel for the Cuban team!!! they got the last exchange in first place, but painfully, they did not have a stronger closer. It is sad, though. A well deserved 3rd place nobody expected!!!
Probably still had a vial or two of Soviet drugs in the fridge, despite USSR's (Cuba's accomplice and benefactor) richly deserved implosion two yrs before.
@teller1290 Don't make me laugh. US had more sofisticated vials than the Rusians, and Carl Lewis' blood wasn't red and has never been and not for been a king, though.
@@ricardogonzalez1894 tons of evidence and statements from firmer athletes from Eastern Bloc nations admitted using for years. It was a government mandated program of cheating over there to prove their rotten system was superior to ours.

Carl Lewis was an INCREDIBLE sprinter. I mean his execution has always been impeccable.
Hi
He's a cheater.
Except he committed the ultimate relay sin changing baton hand mid race. A complete no-no. Also he's a multiple time drug taker.....

@@inyang9162
You were the person who provided him with those drugs and were taking them too, weren't you?
D Mitchell smoked the curve and cheered the squad on! Awesome
He was at near top speed when he got the baton from Burrell, that helped him explode into the turn.
his cheering was my favorite part of this race. I keep replaying that part.
Dennis, MJ, Calvin Smith for the men
Cheeseborogh, Inger Miller, Prandini for the women

Clean with Dennis Mitchell ironic
@@doctorbonzo5457 yes but Carl Lewis was a cheat he has admitted to drug taking all drug cheats should be fucked out of athletics
But the athletes weren't clean

Wow. Amen. They ran their hearts out and made Nigeria proud.
Ooga Booga
🙏🏾
He was the lead off runner. May his soul rest in peace. Amen.
Dennis Mitchell gestures after hand off to Carl Lewis keep me watching over &over again.
That's why I keep watching, ❤ Dennis motivating/egging Carl on.
Very impressive result. The time would have taken gold in 2021 in spite of all the progress made in the last 30 years in sprinting.
Dennis Mitchell was flying😱😱
You got that right! We used to say he's running like he stole something!😄
He burned holes in the track. What a leg he ran.
Omg yessss😱😱😱
He ate their lunch on that curve.
😂
For reasons that became obvious later...
Still brings a tear to my eye, awesome.
Same here, I had this recorded on VHS back in ‘92 and have probably seen this 200 times. Not an exaggeration.
Davidson Ezinwa from Nigeria was big and ran so well🔥
Yes, my proudest moments
Me too. 37.98 still unsurpassed. Surreal.
Dennis Mitchell ran with such fury. You talk about a guy who looks fast, there it is.
Yep, I was in the stadium for this (in fact all the T&F events). Fantastic evenings, and great to see legends in the flesh. Elsewhere Quincy Watts was the star of the program in the 400m & relay.
The lack of egos back then is such a nice thing. Truly and humbly represented our USA. The pride of America right there. Awesome
Great point 👍🏽. Listening to Carl Lewis praise and defer to everyone else but himself is refreshing 👌🏾
That's Right😊
Truly a beautiful race, Dennis Mitchell was getting around that curve and Carl Lewis was moving out great race gentlemen
Are you deluded Mitchell and Lewis were known drug cheats. Mitchell got caught Lewis was a filthy drug taker who got away despite getting caught numerous times.
Dennis Mitchell was so pumped he nearly chased Carl Lewis to the finish line. Lol
WOW!, that was awesome....even 28 years later....
Yasssss! That was amazing! The excitement that Mitchell had when the pass was successful and Lewis is just absolutely phenomenal! No one could even catch Lewis. This team set a new world and olympic record.
The excitement of Dennis Mitchell after passing the button. I love the way he uses his hands to communicate.
After missing the team in the 100m Lewis ran his best anchor leg of his career in Barcelona. I guess he wanted to prove he still had it.
So happy for the Nigerians. Their women's team came third, and there's a video of them jumping and jumping and jumping for joy!
Thanks. We didn't really consolidate on what we achieved in the 90s. However, our time (no pun intended) will come eventually.
@@Bprovo Sure hope it does, you deserve every success. Wishing you strength, luck and the perfect atmosphere to thrive! Love always.

@@olayinkaoladimeji3116 Beautiful!
Dennis Mitchell 3rd leg was no joke in this race !
His Zurich 91turn is what set the WR for them
UNREAL
Same like English Gardner at the Rio Olympics
Always my fav sprinter. King Carl Lewis
Dennis Mitchell 🔥🔥🔥
I love his celebratory antics when he passes the baton to Carl Lewis.
I love to watch Carl tear up the tracks..this relay exchange and speed was beautiful
When watching the Olympics was fun....Now we have nonstop interviews and also bringing celebrity who are not athletes to make it their own shows when we want is watching this athletes compete.
These quartet has wings on their feet and they' re all flying✈️amazing WR.
In hindsight, 1992 U.S. Basketball team were NOT the Only Barcelona "Dream Team!"...Hats Off to ALL!
Awesome! I'm still smiling in 2023
listening to OJ and now he's gone.
Gotta love Leroy Burrell.
Chills and more chills all these years later! 2020 Olympics brings me back here to see Carl and team dominate!❤️
So good to rewatch these old races like it just happened.
I myself I see Carl Lewis as the best runner of all time his running composure like a horse knees high beautiful running composure and I yet to see that only in Carl Lewis
LMAO. You mean one of the biggest drug cheats of all time.
And there was me thinking the best runner of all times should be the individual who ran the fastest of all times…..alas I stand corrected.
@@sheriffsaliu9872 I don’t believe that for one minute I never heard of Carl Lewis doping he is in history and no one can take that from him

Come on now wake up is Usain Bolt no questions
Oh snap Carl Lewis! Damn this is a throwback lol

@helpinghal a record that will probably never be broken
Andre Cason was a great sprinter, but he never took the spotlight from Carl.
Dennis Mitchell ate that whole curve up and didnt leave nothing...no crumbs left at all!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
92 team was flying 🏆🏆🏆🏆
The Juice doing the commentary!! Then two years later...................
Lewis was a very smooth runner.
The Nigerian 3rd leg runner and the anchor leg are goated.
Did anyone notice the space the Nigerian anchor covered to make silver???
He was terrific!!
The baton pass was also swift
Stunning!!
Davidson Ezinwa.
Kayode Oluyemi of blessed memory leading off..
Chidi Imoh on the back stretch
Olapade Adeniken 3rd, and Davidson Ezinwa on the anchor.
Mr Lewis is 1 of the most focus and calculated athletic participant I've seeing in the sport . Respect .
Carl a class act. Took the time acknowledge an injury opened the spot for him.
Doped to the eyeballs as well
Bitter soul @@ChrisHansen-e2r
That was an incredible race! If I remember correctly, but Carl ran an 8.8 on his leg. April 2023.
I checked twice
8.7!!!!
Two world record holders in one team. Later USA had it again I think with Green and Montgomery in one team. The best every was of course Asafa and Bolt in the same team.
Dennis turned the jets on big time!
Wow that 3rd leg and ⚓️ anchor Lewis was flying. I've never seen CL 🏃♂️ run.
I did...a lot back then. Consummate professional. No bullshitting. Great times back then at the Olympics. Better commentary. More time on basic, traditional events. Didn't take up DAYS with diving.
HAHA. Thanks again dude. I wish had easy access to this as you.
Goosebumps
the best 4x100 relay team of alltime 100%
No you will find that's Jamaica who are wr holders not usa
Wrong ! Jamaica is the best 4x100 relay team. They not only hold the world record but also the 2nd best all-time result.
If only the US could run relays like this now.
Thanks for including the pre and post race footage! Any chance you have the women’s 4x400 from Barcelona ‘92?
YES!!! that was MAGNIFICENT 😊
@@bremymarie oiiiiiiiiiiiii
"Carl Lewis, in his final olympic games". Wrong.
3rd LEG WAS SUPER MEGA FAST.
They were so fast ass brothers and set a new world record congratulations men and USA 🇺🇸.37.40.
Naija no drug , no tricks, we are so pure and too strong
I wish they still explained it like this on TV.
No time for it. Gotta have equal time between male and female events...from same people who can't agree on what a woman is.
World record is now 36.84 in 2023 (set in 2012 by Jamaica with Usain Bolt as the anchor).
The Nigerian Team all the way...Africa has always been clean back then...
Carl Lewis wasn’t quite finished with the Olympics, despite what the announcer said. 😂
Carl Lewis era lento en el arranque pero cuando metía quinta y sexta velocidad era insuperable... bueno, en aquella época, porque después llegó al mundo su majestad USAIN BOLT .
they were the absolute best
AWESOME - THEY WERE SMOKIN!!!!!!!!!!!
Carl Lewis looking like Jermaine Jackson!!😀😀
Does, doesn't he, lololololol
He does...lol
Incredible....
That's OJ, right? Who could have imagined...
Yes! I thought that voice sounded mighty familiar!
I Love my US Sprint teams ❤
Olympics should be done every two years so we can watch the best at the youth and not when they are old.
Yesssss
Its too much planning and building of Stadiums, and what's not involved, very big undertaking
4:19 Mizuno was and STILL a great product in racewear! 🐦
as italian, I enjoyed a lot the introduction service before the race 👍👍
in Italy, TVs are not used to trait track & field like that
Beautiful team and Carl ALWAYS the GENTLEMAN COMPETITOR!!!!!!
Calvin Smith was the best 3rd leg runner I've ever seen, but Dennis Mitchell was cooking with gas. Mitchell was also a great 1st leg.
USA men and women are good tracks teams they have good runners 🏃♀️
One of the best races
Is that O. J. Simpson as a commentator? No one picked up on that?
Dennis Mitchell used to shut that 3rd leg DOWN. Period.
We are Nigeria you can't do without seeing us . Naija always strong
Mike Marsh was coach of 2024 4x100 disaster relay in Paris
Carl “Prime Time” Lewis.
7:07 “When Carry the baton the race is over
7:15….those of many quotes every time I see the Olympic
One of the sickest relays ever. Oh, and was that OJ is commenting with Costas?
DENNIS MITCHELL was the fastest Sprinter ever.
Carl Lewis & Michael Johnson 2 US Goats!☺Love USA!!!!!!😄😄😄😄😄
9:40 Carl is so quirky. He wastes time changing hands and then starts talking. He's saying "yes, yes" Running is secondary.
3 Santa Monica Track runners
Dennis Mitchell was flying ❤❤❤
Before Bolt....and l love Justin Gatlin....but before Bolt was Carl Lewis!
Lewis admitted taking performance enhancing drugs nothing but another American cheat like Gatlin and Tyson all for the mighty cheating us of a
Thank God we have bolt who was always fun to watch
Carl wasn't a good sport man. Always beefing when someone ran past him
@@tofemsagrovetandchicks1817yes bolt finished with a big bust.
Those two UH alumni
Yes indeed, Great and fun times at U of H during the 80's,
OJ doing this commentary!!! Lmao
Mr Dennis Mitchell, serious gears.
I'm 57, as we would say back in the 70's ' Dennis Mitchell was hauling ass man '..lol
Ran that curve.
Dennis Mitchell may have been the fastest human ever in this sprint!!! Jesus Christ he was FLYING
At the time, many considered Dennis the greatest third leg in history. He could run that turn
This is the track glory of USA, Carl Lewis, Leroy Burrell, .Mike Marsh and Dennis
Mitchell.
I came my boys, the Nigerians. I'm proud.
I wonder why Carl Lewis slowed down in the final few meters, or is it my eyes?
The pass from Mike Marsh to Leroy Burrell was quite slow.
thank you for uploading this video any chance you have the 100m US 1992 Olympic men's trials
In one of the replays, leywis stepped out of his lane.
On another note. OJ was damn good commentator.
He was on USC Track team that tied world record in 67 68?
The best relay..
.
France set the world record before this. But one of them tried the individual 100m and pulled the muscle, just like Derek Redmond in the 400m.
I respect Bolt, but Carl is the absolute best tract man ever.
Today they have advanced shoes, a superior track, and other advantages.
And those shorts were flapping in the wind.
@@judrayton and something else lol
Carl had a better technique for sure!
Still wouldn't have got near bolt unless he took extra drugs and was only 8m behind
Flo jo now that was one superstar that the jamaican s wouldn't have got near with the shoes and tracks
Those Guys are fast and furious.
