- Breaking a World Record is the highest possible achievement in athletics. Not only is a world record an incredible moment for sports, but it showcases an individual's dominance over all of their competitors.
Of all the great distance runners throughout history, Haile Gebrselassie from Ethiopia just might be the most revoluationary of them all as he set an unprecedented 27 world records in his career. From the 2,000 meters up to the marathon distance, Gebrselassie was constantly improving on record times. From 1992 to 2009, a full 17 years, Haile was constantly breaking World Records, which is a feat that few athletes have ever been close to matching.
In this video, we'll be detailing Gebrselassie's World Record performances and how he became one of the most esteemed athletes in running history.
Thanks for watching!
*Haile Gebrselassie* is the Mike Tyson, Michael Jordan, Pelè, Tiger Woods, Rafael Nadal, Wayne Gretzky of Track and Field. No one can deny it.
😍😍😍😍
nobody wants to insist because well YOU are 100 PERCENT CORRECT
Muhammad Ali klay*
Michael Phelps
His smile is like, the sweetest thing in track and field😁
I will always remember him as one of those runners that took this sport to another level.
Always a smile on his face and can't recall a single rival having a bad word to say about him. A class act.
He is not one of the greatest, he is the greatest by a long margin!
I'm so f
Grateful someone finally give this man his respect and covered his amazing world records
Bekele may be the GOAT, and I do love him, but the difference between him and his mentor and previous GOAT, is the smile that was always on Haile's face.
That's what made him so lovable.
Haille is the one that started this Renaissance of Track and World Records. The rest even Kipchoge follow in his footsteps. Love you Haille.
Kennisa Bekele has followed in Haile's steps and has now bettered him in every event Haile held a former WR. The 5000m, 10000m WR's are now held by Kennesisa Bekele and the marathon 2nd best time is also his.
Repent of your sins and follow Jesus Christ Almight y.

Not one of the greatest ever, but the greatest ever!
I am Kenyan and I approve this message.
Second to the great kenenisa
U know someone 27 world record broker
♥️
Indeed
As a Kenyan from an athletics country all over the place.... I remove my cap and salute Haile Gebrselassie as the greatest! We love you Haile!
For sure
A legend respect another legend
I raised myself from a lowest place a person could be and put me in a place very close to where I dreamed of because of this world class man! Thank you my example Haile Gebreselassie!
I met Haile in a national x country race of 12km in january 1988 in Assela city..his home town.we represented our respective regions. He was way way younger than me..probably the youngest of all. I remember how he galloped past me as the race unfolded with consumate ease. I sensed running must be inborn... seeing this kid running so fast with stride that matches older runners.He was placed 7th competing with the very best that came from Addis. During the dinner ceremony after the race where we were shown a video of the late Miruts Yifter's 5000 meter final win in the Moscow 1980 olympics. Miruts Yifter himself was with us on the dinner session, also watching the video and everybody was clapping for him as the video showed eventually Miruts bursting in speed past the tanzanian runner and the finn carlo maninca in the last lap with 300 meters to go.Miruts was smiling meanwhile. Haile's friends during dinner session cheered him a lot saying this is our hope, Assela town's future hope, and during that same dinner ceremony they were loughing constantly at him and mocking him for picking kocho, a loal staple food instead of the more stylish meat. He was mocking them back saying you all are ignorant about the value of kocho.
What a story.
❤💜💚💙🇪🇹
Thank you no one could have put it in better way than you
Too much respect sir 👏
Haile Gebrselassie is the greatest athlete of all time! In other words, he is the G.O.A.T!
Not even Kenenisa Bekele comes close! Breaking world records in itself is not a walk in the park! Doing it multiple times in a wide range of distances is mind boggling! I am Kenyan by the way!
Kiswahili Kitukuzwe 254 ok I agree he is the best but you can’t say Bekele doesn’t come close. I mean Bekele has beaten a few of his records
Are you deluded ? how can you say Bekele doesn't even come close when he is the one who broke all of his world records and won more championships than him ? fair enough in your opinion he is the G.O.A.T which i dont agree by the way but dont say he doesn't come close it just makes you sounds stupid.
Bekele was also a complete beast and pretty much untouchable in Cross Country. Not trying to take anything away from the King, but he won two medals (bronze and a silver as a junior) at World XC, arguably the most competitive distance race on the planet, while Bekele won 11 gold and 1 silver. He was undefeated over both the short course and long course for 5 consecutive years (2002 - 2006). No runner can match that kind of resume.
I am Ethiopian and I am always inspired by Haile. But, Kenenisa Bekele is the greatest long distance runner I have ever seen. To this day, I truly believe that he respected Hisham Elgarouj unnecessarily and waited till the last lap giving advantage to a short distance great like the Moroccan in the 5000m Athens olympics. If he started in the final 4 laps, he was winning that race. He is the man! Unbelievable for Haile and Kenenisa to dominate for over 20 years one after the other!
Don’t call him the goat But the world Best runner.
REAL LEGEND.
he was my running idol back when i was still running competitively. amazing man.
Still the second fastest 5k and 10k runner ever. Had he been chasing bekeles records instead of bekele chasing his, who knows how fast he would have run!
Him and Daniel Komen could have ran sub 12:30
You are giving me more and more running motivation with each new video! I would love you to make a full documentary on Kenenisa Bekele's life. From childhood up until his 02:01:41 marathon. He is my idol when it comes to running.
Rudolph Clench
He truly is the emperor of distance running. Always will be in my book.
@@fastinradfordable He is indeed the goat!
I had doubts whether he could be considered the greatest prior to his incredible marathon in 2019.
He has an unbelievable 5000 m and 10000 m time that I believe are supreme times that are not going to be touched for a long time to come. However then he had only one solid marathon and had nearly nothing else in the marathon and had even not completed many marathons in his career.
So then I held Kipchoge as the GOAT long distance runner, but after his 2:01.41 I have no doubts anymore- He's the GOAT in long distance no doubt.
@@alansamuel2454 Kenenisa is the greatest ever!!
His 5000m and 10000m records were broken by the help of kangaroo shoes and robotic wavelight pacing system. No will comes close to Bekele
I broke the cross country record at my middle school 3 times I remember being really hyped when they put it on the wall
icon, legend, greatest runner of all time ... we loves u haile!
Great video with inspiring scenes!
1. Change your tactics, meet your demands.
2. Even in the worst pain, Keep the smile.
3. Maintain a positive attitude, achieve your goals.
Thank you Legend!
We need more about others like Abebe Bekele, Mamo Wolde
Born in the right place, with the right genetics, in the right time, and with the right mindset. That type of coincidence stacked on coincidence is the reason people like Haile are considered "greatest in a generation".
There is no people like him 😂
One of the best videos you have put out. Wonderful!!
That's very interesting, about him carrying his books being part of his running form from then on. Awesome video dude.
If Haile was younger and competing today alongside Kipchoge and Bekele, then he could most certainly have been the third man to run a sub-2:02 marathon.
He cant
@@DLS24DLS he can if Nike sponsors him lol...
@@DarkPa1adin then why didnt they sponsor such a talent?
@@DLS24DLS haha. Adidas was top then. Now Nike took over with the next%. And I'm not a Nike fan. I'm an Adidas fan.
Man if he get Kipchoge’s chance like Nike shoes 4% & 5% and other facilities by nn global sports management for sure he could run u2hr.He has strong mentality & physicality
Legend, myth! The greatest of all time!!!
Yes another video
Amazing Haile will always be my idol and inspiration all my life.
ONE of the greatest? No, THE greatest, ever, at any distance.
just watching his stride is making me feel high. How is it even possible to be this good :D
The icon man who had been run with out today’s technology but showed amazing performance for the world for more than 2 decades.if he got the today technology aids like Nike shoes for sure he could run marathon u2 hr
He is a legend.
Beast runner and motivation video.thanks bro.
That is an amazing time spand - 15 years world class!

Haile Gebreselassie is the GREATEST of ALL TIME!!!!
Tnx for recognizing our hero. One love Ethiopia
Thanks for the christmas gift 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Another amazing vídeo 👏👏👏👏
He still holds the 1 hr run WR and the 10 mile WBP.
Yeah 44min and bits
@@Alex.1739 The one hour record is gone. Mo Farah got his first record!
I watched it , yeah go on mo!
@@alansamuel2454 the wavelights on the track should be banned
@@waterproof4403 Yep gives current athletes a huge advantage in calculational benefit especially if you assume they're of fairly raw skill themselves. Bekele and Haile had to depend on mental grit and wit rather than mechanically aided world record setting.
people say they kick up a gear but Haile 1 gear was not enough he kicked up several gears and it was a wonder to behold every time
He is a beast 💪
What an excellent video this is. Thank you. That part about Geb running to school with his books in his hands was a super-genius detail that will hook any track geek!
Proud that he is from my homeland.
Haile you are the LEGEND and the GOAT no doubt about that
Simply put an unbeatable legend.
I meet Haile the King 2 times in Berlin ❤️
Ethiopia proud of our brave athlete ! Glory to Ethiopia !

Thank you for this!
I find your uploads interesting and informative, would love to see more of Gebrselassie and other great drug-free athletes like Emil Zatopek, Lasse Viren, Mitrus Yifter and Henry Rono please.
8:30 "However..." I feel like this is the theme of this video he just never stops breaking world records haha
Haile is so precious.
amazing!
Just like St.Nick,you're dropping off goodies on Christmas eve! Happy holidays,TRP,and keep the dope content coming in the new year!!!
Kenenisa Bekele and Haile are the only two runners in history with a case to be TBE. No one else is even close to them.
Kipchoge ?
@@lordsackmann2363 Not at all. Great runner tho, but you cant replace breaking WR in all distances, with been pretty good marathonrunner.
Ok good point. But he is by far the greatest Marathon Runner, or not ?
@@lordsackmann2363 No doubt about it. Even if Bekele breaks the marathon WR, nobody has done in the marathon was Kidchogue did.
@@oscarmaidana9294 exactly. Kipchoge is the beat marathon runner while Haile and Kenensia are the absolute greatest runners overall
Mo Farah owes money to this man
Mo Farah liar and a thief .He never came back Ethiopia again for training he never paid for hotel
@@dawitgebrekidan8010 would you pay for hotel you got robbed 3000 pound?
@@Alex.1739 what has the owner of the hotels to do with this? It's like blaming on Donald Trump when you get lost something inside Trump hotel.
Good video 👍🏽👍🏽
Amazing best ever runner
these videos are so entertaining
I consider him the second best, my favourite is Ababe Bekila.
Please do an analysis on Moses Kiptanui. I know like his compatriot, Henry Rono, he never won an Olympic gold medal but his story is worth being told.
I am Ethiopian and I consider Haile way better than Kenenisa, even if Kenenisa broke Haile's records.
Faisel Moh'd Muktar Even Haile/G will testifies That there will never be another #Kenenisa 💚💛❤️🔥ሁለቱን ማወዳደር ይደብራል ::

haha አረ ተው ባክህ ;)
Interms of records YEH, but Haile's undefeated long journey is very remarkable to me. He protected his and his country's reputation. He never let others to win even at times when he is not feeling well. Just have a look at Sydney 2000 Olympic; czcams.com/video/5D56ZAvcxN0/video.html
To me, that was the best finish in the history of track race.
If it were Kenenisa, i think, he would have given up and let Paul Tergat to win by just leaving the race in the last round and complain for a leg injury as he does sometimes : ). But Haile, never; he never gave up no matter his leg injury.
Watch the above link i sent you and thank me later :D
Faisel Moh'd Muktar it’s very difficult for me to pick between the two 😘 I have a wonderful memory of Sydney Olympic I watched that race in Cape Town at Africans sport bar I was the only one supporting Haile the whole bar were against me GoD is good and we know what happened at the end he made me proud in front of everyone & Tears of Joy I cried like a baby 💚💛❤️🤗 አንተ #ለሀይሌ የሚሰማህን ስሜት ልክ እኔ ለጥሩዬ የሚሰማኝ ስሜት ነው ከ አልማዝ ጋር ሳወዳድራቸው happy chatting with you የሀገር ልጅ 🙏😘
@@mvab3252
Yes me too. I watched it live while i was in my sweet home country. What a memory it was!
I am a very big fan of Kenenisa too; even though he has bet records, he was not as consistent as Halile the Great; he was beaten several times by Mo Farah, Kipchoge and others.
Let's hope this COVID-19 will leave soon and watch Kenenisa vs Kipchoge; I feel like this is the last chance for Kenenisa to beat Kipchoge; if he can't know, he will give up :'( .
Faisel Moh'd Muktar yes when we Comes to Marathon #Choge is D Man and D favorite but finger Crossed to our legend #Bekele indeed that’s his last chance to beat him 💪🏽 I can’t wait to see that race 🔥👏
He has no second, he is the GOAT!!!
I can watch this video all day.
HAILE ALL TIME HERO ✊
Had to be an Ethiopian, why some might ask, because Ethiopia is where humanity and civilization start from. The first place woman conceived.
Indeed the greatest
This guy is a legend like messi cristiano ronaldo pele Lebron james Rafael Nadal Michel jackson etc
Hayela Gabrielle one of faster runners he was time. I so admire his talent and fantastic runners he was time never for get him he was one of Ethiopian hero.
what a legend.
We love you our legend!!
Hero
And people want to call Eliud the goat 🙄 give me a break. Marathon goat yes, but as far as the greatest distance runner of all time? It's either Haile or Kenenisa, not even close.
Eliud Kipchoge is clearly the greatest marathoner of all time!
Haile Gebrselassie is the greatest athlete, runner (or whatever you want to call it) of all time! *"Sorry Kenenisa Bekele, you come a distant second to both these two greats."* I am Kenyan by the way!
both are the greatest in their respective races
Ajay Kumar disagree. Haile broke the marathon WORLD RECORD more times than kipchoge has. Kipchoge has no other world records to his name other than the one Marathon world record. Haile had 27.
Kiswahili Kitukuzwe 254 agreed. Although, I don't believe kenenisa is a distant second. I think he's pretty close to them. If we rank both kipchoge and Haile at 10, kenenisa is a 9. Kenenisa also has plenty of world records to his name but can be slightly overshadowed by the accomplishments of these men
Word!!
That's true dedication...
Some of the pictures looks like he is flying!
Our hero💞
what's with the "one of the", "one of the". Haile is the greatest distance runner of all time.
Bekele is in every way greater than Haile. I don't mean to put one down, but there is literally no question as to who was the better runner among Bekele and Haile - Bekele has bettered all of Haile's times.
@@alansamuel2454 That's just wrong: Gebrselasie has better times over 1500m, Mile, 3000m, 2 Miles, 10km, Half-Marathon
@@keinKlarname When I gave this comment I made a mistake I should have mentioned WR's.
Bekele has a 3:32 1500, a 7:25.79 3000, a 8:13 2 mile, 27:49 10km never run a mile Haile has a 3:33 1500, a 3:52 mile, a 7:25.09 3000, a 8:01 2 mile, a 27:02 10km. So for the most of them you're right with the exception of the 1500m.
But Bekele only ran a 2 miles once against Haile 3 times, Bekele never did a mile, and his 1:00.00 half is definitely possible to improve now to at least a sub 59 considering he missed the Marathon WR by 2 seconds!
And this is not considering the events both of them focused on the 5000 m, and the 10000 m and the marathon all of which Bekele has significantly faster times.
@@alansamuel2454 No, I was not wrong with the 1500m, Gebrselassie has set his PB indoors and is still the 4th fastest ever, 22 years after he has set this mark. Bekele did run the Mile and he has not significantly faster times in the 5000m and 10000m.
He broke 27 world records. All of them are the best
the gerat man in the track and field running !
the best ever if you break 27 world records your a true great a king of long distance running
uma.lenda viva ❤❤❤
Proud to be Ethiopian!
very strong our athlethe
King
Please do not discount the role played by the Genetics in these super-human performances. None of this would have been possible without blessed genes that give them East Africans lungs the size of a horse. Hence don't forget to mention it (at least once).
Of course it doesn't mean that those stellar performances, incredible timings, numerous world records and that untouchable dominance - any of it could have been achieved without the model work ethics, the complete dedication towards one trade and commitment towards ones realising ones dreams, the mastery over ones craft.
Horse lung 🤣😂😂
