Olympic Games Mexico 1968 Closing Ceremony (Amateur Footage)
In 1963, the IOC awarded the Olympics to Mexico despite some warnings about the effects of competing at the altitude (2,134 metres) of Ciudad de México. The warnings would prove prophetic, both for good and bad, but also prominent at Ciudad de México was the first large-scale incursion of politics directly into the Olympic venues.
Political problems manifested themselves as protests by Mexican students before the Games. The students were upset that so much money was spent on the Olympics in the face of such widespread poverty in their country. As the protest movement gathered momentum leading up to the Games, the Mexican Army took charge on the night of 2 October. As 10,000 people demonstrated in the Square of the Three Cultures in Ciudad de México, the Army surrounded the crowd and soon opened fire. More than 250 people were killed and thousands were injured.
In the United States, Harry Edwards, a professor at San Jose State University, urged blacks to boycott the Olympics to protest the rampant racism of American society. The boycott never materialized. However, his efforts came to fruition in the victory ceremony of the 200 metres. The race was won by Tommie Smith (USA) with the bronze medal going to John Carlos (USA). On the victory platform, as “The Star Spangled Banner” played in the background, almost unheard, the two black Americans stood barefooted, heads bowed, and each raised a singled black-gloved fist in their own form of protest. The IOC banned the two from future Olympic participation and ordered them to leave the Olympic Village immediately.
On a more positive political note, the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) entered separate national teams for the first time.
The altitude severely affected many track & field events. Bob Beamon used the lesser gravity to set a stunning world record in the long jump of 8.90 (29-2½). In the 100, 200, 400, 400 metre hurdles, 4×100 relay, 4×400 relay, and the triple jump, all sprint or sprint-related events not requiring much oxygen, and aided by the lessened pull of gravity, new world records were set by the men. Many of these records would not be broken for years.
But the distance running events saw very slow times, as the runners gasped for the oxygen that was not there. In the 5,000 metres, the winning time was the slowest in 16 years. In the marathon, Mamo Wolde (ETH) won in a time eight minutes slower than his countryman, Abebe Bikila, had posted in Tokyo. Bikila ran in Mexico but was hampered by a stress fracture and withdrew at 27 km (17 miles).
The two saddest sights attributed to altitude were the men’s 1,500 metres and 10,000 metres. In the 1,500 the race was seen as a dual between Kenya’s Kip Keino, who had grown up at altitude and trained there regularly, and America’s Jim Ryun. Ryun had become the dominant miler in the world in the past few years, though he was slightly less so in 1968 due to health issues. Still, he was no match for Keino in the thin air of Ciudad de México and had to settle for the silver medal. It is possible that Keino would have won at any altitude but there is no way to know.
In the 10,000 metres, Australia’s Ron Clarke, one of the finest distance runners ever against the clock, was still searching for his first gold medal. He ran himself into exhaustion, but through 8,000 metres, the lead pack was Clarke and Naftali Temu (KEN), Mamo Wolde (ETH), and Mohamad Gammoudi (TUN) - all altitude-trained Africans. Clarke was dropped at that point and finished 6th. At the finish he collapsed, ashen-faced, and lay unconscious, near death, for 10 minutes as the Australian team doctor wept openly while administering to him. Clarke recovered fully, but he would never win an Olympic gold medal.

The most decorated gymnast at the Olympics. The best all times!
Whenever filmed this is amazing
Do you have the names of the competitors that day ?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great when bars were closer
❤ At no point did you worry about her falling and injuring herself like today. She did a beautiful elegant graceful routine. If she could see what they do today, she would ask how is that possible? Too much pressure on today's gymnasts 😮 and I applaud their power, mental and physical strength and skill ❤
Eran buenos, buenos, super jinetes y con caballares de otras razas, que en algunos casos, no superaban 1, 60 metros del alzada,
Que orgullo como Chileno y como Hijo Jose, un fuerte abrazo
The mount made go dizzy😵💫
Thanks for sharing!
Danke für die Erinnerung, wie laut und verstunken das da mal war, das macht glücklich mit dem jetzigen Stachus. Den erfrischenden Brunnen im Sommer hat es auch noch nicht gegeben und die für Fahrgäste mit Kinderwagen, Rollator und Gehbehinderung unzumutbaren Trambahnen waren auch noch da. Tolle Zeiten.... nicht.

Almost a clean sweep by the Jamaicans. Looks like Arthur Wint might have sustained an injury and slowed up near the finish line.
