The most beautiful 4x100 m relay race I've ever seen. Carmelita Jeter pointing the clock with the baton will end up as an iconic moment in olympic history.
This my favorite as well. Also check out the 1988 women 4x100m if you never saw it. my second favorite.
@@supapsych191 I remember that race as well especially how Evelyn Ashford went turbo mode to beat the East German runner to win gold.
Rio Olympics were also a magic moment after the solo qualification and running the final from lane 1.
Jeter pointing at the clock will always be epic to me. I love that moment and the whole race.
Iconic
Me too!
I think Carmelita had been watching the clock the whole last 50 meters.
It is 2020 and I still get goose bumps. Madison holding on against SAFP, Felix giving us the lead, knight holding off VCB, and Jeter flying home!!! MAGNIFICENT!!!!!
Same. it never gets old
Same today may 2024.
I watch this race almost every day. It’s my favorite 4x100m ever.
Tbh
Amazing splits, slick baton exchanges, brought it home.....incredible time!
Same here
So a my
Ok so I’m not the only one! I watch the actual race on the other NBC post and mock the announcer “This is Special, This is a World Record!”
I remember Carmelita wiping her hands on her top. She didn't want to drop that baton. That was incredibly epic.
Mo
Yeah, that was probably some pine tar or the stickum football players would put on their jerseys. Funny if the ref went to take it from her and it was stuck to her hand when she opened it.
Felix was going so fast she ran out of frame LOLOLOL. This race was magic.
Bwhahahahahahaha.
Bartoleta keep pace with Shelly-Ann, and Carmelita end the work in 9.70 !
@@virgilius7036 She said wench Shelley where you think you are going? I got you.
Tianna straight served Shelly Ann on that first leg it was over after that once Allison got that baton it was lights out.
I’m a fan of the unorthodox method of passing the baton
same here i do it in every race
Bryan lol
Bryan 😂
😂😂
lol
This race wouldn't have been won without Tianna, Tianna held her own against Pocket Rocket, The Goat Shelly. Felix was gonna do her thing and did, Bianca maintained, and Jeter was the FINISHER. The relay coaches was genius in picking this group.
It was also the perfect handover by Felix that put them ahead of 1-2 steps
Facts
Watched Jeter's interview... Paid a lot of props to Bianca Knight actually. In fact, as group lead, Jeter insisted that it be Bianca to hand to her because she could trust her.
By the way I do agree Madison played a huge role. Allyson Felix was untouchable that season and was always going to do her thing.
Jeter herself of course was not gonna be touched.
It honestly wasn't that hard to pick the team since Felix, Jeter and Madison were 100m finalists at those olympics. Tianna def was important but Felix leg gave them the big lead and had 2 super changeovers. This relay order was so perfect!
@@farirn642 facts and people keep forgetting and leaving out Felix set the record for the fastest 2nd leg in history
THIS WILL NEVER GET OLD
This was one of the most iconic and history making race ever!!!! Almost 10 yrs later I’m still hyped 😊
It’s super awesome when Jeter crosses the line how she points at the clock
Absolute World Classic
Iconic
My fave part
Bianca Knight hit that bend like a freight train with a rocket on its back!! This gives me chills every time I watch the race!
the craziest part about this record is that they only had 1 100m specialist in the relay.
..but three of the USA sprinters made the 100m final - all running under 10.9
@@fredball8240 yeah
Right timing for A world Record, with perfect handoff
@@fredball8240 And all made the top 5. Jeter, Madison and Felix
yeah, they had the long jumper -- I expected this next, "Suzanne Cohen takes the second leg for the USA -- she's gotten so strong as a figure skater and won the gold in the winter Olympics, so she could be a real asset here today."
I watched this a million times. Rewatching, slow motion and regular. I love it when they break down world class sporting, it gives you even more details behind an extraordinary story!
Tiana reeled Shelly in on the first leg, Allyson blew it open on the second leg, Bianca rode the curve, held off VCB, and Carmelita just burned rubber down the stretch. SPECIAL!!! CRUSHED THE WORLD RECORD 40.82 !!!
Ok you should be a color announcer. Your verbiage just took me back 10 yrs.
This girl ran a 9.7 split. That’s insane
@@ajunahenry9307 this is not a record bc she ran from the mobile start. Only immobile starts are considered. Anyway I love this team
Габит Канафин stop hating
@@shawday7911 whom?
@@user-ju6ml7hi2t your'e right^^
She ran like someone stole her iPhone.
That last slow motion pass from Knight to Jeter was chilling. Absolutely beautiful.
I swell with pride every time I see this.
Shelly-Ann seems like such a sweet, pleasant person - always smiling and so gracious! Tiana and Felix put them ahead and they stayed ahead.
Allyson Felix broke it open with that second leg
And Jeter finished it
@@Justice20247 Yeah, if Jeter had no lead, she would have won it anyway.
Even the Jamaican pass was great but the US women were totally focused and set to win the Gold
Jeter finishing and pointing to the electronic time board is EPIC.
I looked at the clock and i saw we was moving. This team was on fire👏👏👏👏
So proud of this US team, even though im Canadian
Man, the logic makes the baton handing process seem much harder than I always thought it was.
one of the GREATEST moment in Atheltics ever, Peace from Indonesia.
I love watching this race over and over. Love the commentary, writing and music
Love love love that she pointed over the finish line! ❤️💙
Jeter pointing at the World Record Clock was awesome ..... A 9.7 split would almost be a world record 100 for the men ............
Ummmm, no? There is no such thing as world records for relay splits, but Usain has clocked a 8.6 split. Bob "Bullet" Hayes ran an anchor leg under 9 seconds 55 year ago. It may have escaped your keen eye, but after the first leg the runners have a running start.
Izzard Clips you seriously missed the point. everything you said is OBVIOUS! the original comment meant that the time 9.7 would be close to world record in a men’s 100m race.
@@breeze9778 The mens 100m world record is 9.58 set by Bolt in 2009! So possibly your miss the point. Peace.
@@johndyson1974 Breezy S said "close" for goodness sake.
No it wouldn't💀
My favorite relay race..... I love 1988 relay as well with FloJo and Ashford
The USA women were simply amazing with their baton changes. Their victory, with their new world record, was well deserved.
I watch this video about once a month. These women are incredible. Power, function, and if I dare say, a sexiness about them. They are truly incredible women whose talents are ageless.
Whew, that 'unorthodox' pass had me howling and crying😂😂😂! Thx, I needed that LAUGH!!
Idk why but this makes me wanna cry tears of joy lol
It's funny that the baton drops in 2004 & 2008 both had one thing in common...Lauren Williams. I think she was the problem. I was honestly surprised they let her even run in 2012.
Yes she kept getting out too early
Marion Jones got slow in 2004.
redemption
That's a testament to Never Give Up
Yeah she transitioned to the bobsled team and they apparently did remarkably well.
Can’t ever stop watching this....
These sisters did that. Talk about movin…. Impressive. Great race, but that finish was outstanding!
Alison Felix didn't even run the bend!
Lol the back straight right.which is the longest leg.
IKR. WTH is he talking about. She ran the straight away as that is typically the longest part of the race and she has the experience and speed to get them where they need to go.
Dayron Miller the announcer said “no one ran the bend better.”
@@peacefulruler1 watch the video again and listen
Alex Pennington right
Truly the greatest moment of the 2012 olympics
I love Jeter so much, she is amazing..
My black queens won’t they do it🥇🥇🥇🥇
Tangi Coleman you mean our USA black Queens
racist
Facts!
what is a black queen? i'm confused
EVERY SINGLE TIME SINCE DAY 1!!!
The perfect pass is from MADISON TO FELIX.
Carmelita Jeter's job was to closed the deal, bring (fly) it home and smash the record as the fastest ever 4 by 100.
Waiting for tokyo 2020
Md Mohideen yeet
Now its probably 2021.
Gonna have to wait a little longer unfortunately
Corona 😭😭😭
Yep Sadly missed , this is what great Athletes dream about
Alyson Felix blazed by Dafne Schippers as if she was walking!
I know. Daphne was like wth.
Alyson is my gal.. She ran the bend well. But Carmelita is out of this world. The quartert was awesome.
Thats what I was going to write! She was FLYING!!
@@lewisomari4437 Bianca run the second bend. Allyson run the first straight leg, starting at 2:42
I guess it's worth mentioning that Dafne had just turned 20 and was still a full-time heptathlete. It's not like she was the sprinter she is now back then.
Allyson Felix. 4x100m and 4x400m gold. Absolute legend
and 200 gold
I watch this documentary every day, these four ladies are my most favourite ever!!!!!!
USA Women, I'm so Happy that you won this race, and not repeating what happened in 2004/08 and winning this in World Record Fashion, great job.. The Best in the World ♥️
Am not surprised this record lasts to eternity. I love the four girls
They also ran the 2nd fastest time at Rio
Every time I saw a baton drop there was always Lauren Williams
Common denominator. Yeah sorry Lauren you are the fall guy.
Lauryn Williams was a bad luck.
The common denominator for the men is Justin Gatlin
And so was that drug cheat!!!
I really enjoyed watching this and I am so proud of these women and what they accomplished. It was SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!!.
With lots of love from NIGERIA!!!
Super awesome when Jeter crosses the line and points at the clock USA BABY
This race and the 4x100m in 1988 with Alice Brown,Sheila Echols,Florence Griffin Joyner,and Evelyn Ashford. Are my two favorite women 4x100m races ever.
2016 is no slouch either. I was all 3 at least twice a week
@@slford80 I agree... 2016 41.01 run was awesome.
I NEVER get tired of watching this one! It's still electrifying!
B. Knight held her own against the fast and powerful VCB!!
Thanks for this narration! Now I see how special this was!
I get goosebumps anytime I watch this race
The very best of USA team...4x100
Super blast..ALLYSON FELIX ..my idol. The LEGEND..hope 1 day i will meet U🇵🇭
I watched this video daily.
❤️ this 🇺🇸 quartet so immensely that this video is my all-time rewatchable😘Absolutely relish their stellar performance and moment of glory! Cool😎, this WR still stands today!👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉
I feel Jet was on so much form that she wouldve won the singles gold. Her split was 9.7 which say from her start block seemed a 10.7 maybe less
This win for US women was Amazing
My favourite race of all time..
"We got the stick around", lol, love it.
What "bend" is he talking about. Allyson rand the "back stretch"! She always runs the 2nd leg. with exception of 2004 when she started. 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
KENNECTED did
I thought the problem is with me. Because english is my second language.
And they did it without any performance enhancing drugs. Can the same thing be said about the record braking German team in those days? I really doubt it.
Is that a joke?
@@saitama4435 lol no
Saitama you got proof?
I doubt they were not juiced, but americans rule the world.
@@saitama4435 Truth hurts😂😂💀💀
I ran track and when 2nd leg Felix passed to 3rd leg ( the youngest on the team) Felix ignited her -Let's Go!Let's Go and clapped her hand. She set 3rd leg up. I ran anchor and when 3rd leg says, STICK. I hold my arm out high so they can place it in there. 3rd leg shouts Let's Gothat gave me fuel to get to the finish line. You can't see what's behind you so you rely on your teammates!
I just love USA and Jamaica, their fair rivalry in the field can't be described in words
Simply SPECTACULAR. AMAZING PRECISION ON THE HANDOFFS AND THAT POINT TO THE WR AS CJ CROSSES THE LINE IS PROBABLY THE GREATEST MOMENT IN WOMENS TRACK EVER.
2:34 Fantastic video showing the impressive speed and flawless execution of US team!!! All the four girls were just incredible!
Allyson (9.77) run the first straight leg at about the same time as Jeter (9.70), which is quite extraordinary given she had to slow down for the additional baton handover.
They SHATTERED IT!!!!!!!!!
Im a brit amd i just love watching this.... They were awesome!
This quartet lifts my spirits.
Madison OUT THE BLOCKS WAS NOT PLAYING AT ALL..BUT WHEN CARMELITA GOT THAT BATON IT WAS KISS MY A__AND CATCH ME IF YOU CAN!!! I LOVED IT AND STILL DO🖤🖤🖤🖤
I love it.... all of those ladies were FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Colorful descriptions 😂
I'm dead 😂😂😂
Such a special moment.
This was an impressive relay final.
The only thing that dropped was the time on the clock. Beautiful :).
Why does the narrator keep calling Allyson Felix’s leg a “bend”? It was a straightaway. The 2nd leg is the exact opposite of a bend. It’s the longest straightaway.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH. IT GIVES YOU GREAT FEELINGS OUT OF SOMETHING HISTORICAL THAT ALREADY A GREAT MOMENT! INSPIRATIONAL! AWESOME!
Beautiful documentary... That race 💥💥💥💥💥💥
Getting hyped for Tokyo 🗾 .. this analysis and split view of handoffs was superb!!!
Kudos to those ladies for getting the stick and looking awesome doing it.
They performed like and acted like winners.
40.82. . . . So let me get this straight. .. . That means everyone averaged a 10.2. And with the baton exchange basically and 10.0 or 10.1 🤔. These women were amazing
Jeter and Felix ran under 10 seconds actually. Felix ran 9.96 I believe, and Jeter ran 9.70 (one of the fastest splits ever ran by a woman).
Bianca knight tho!!! 🔥
Yeeeessss!
She looked like a freight train when she hit that bend! Pure power and excellence!!
@@shonmajette3452 yessss
When she took off, I was like good lord... pure power!
Yup she held her own against a fast closing VCB
This shows black excellence and I’m so proud
Jeter ran a 9.7 split. Isn't that like a men's 100m time?
With a running start. It's in line with her PB from the blocks, 10.64. It's still an amazingly fast split for a woman.
So proud of my sisters
Am yet to see anyone who has not enjoyed watch this super natural movie? Cannot stop watching
Allyson just rips it. They all rock....goodness sake. It's as if they had wings..
Black girl magic!
I have been looking for a video like this. Emotional race
It's 2024 but i came back to watch an extraordinary achievement by team USA. Tianna Madison really deserved to get this gold.
Unorthodox method - yeet the baton
What " WOWW" me??...was the control Madison had on her body when she handed off to Felix!! She surprised Felix on how fast she got there. That's the point in the race that could have destroyed Team USA's gold and record.
Black women running are so beautiful !
our sisters made us proud of our color skin
I still get teary 🥲 watching this 🔥
That flying JAJUAR was so on fire she couldn't even stop after passing that baton to that "over the speed limit CHEETAH" who chewed up that 2nd leg and spat them out to that TIGER who went into beast mode delivering those carcasses to the LIONESS who went in for the kill. Talk about blood on the tracks! Magnificent Race USA!
Excellent Analogy/Comparison!!!
Relay require harmony in the teams to make it happen
I love Allyson and I like Carmelita...she seems a real good mate
