The best 200m / 400m runner in history. His span of work is undeniable as he set the blue print for Bolt.
Lmao i can't wait for Michael norman to make you eat your words 😭
@@marsbars2889 soooo what abt Norman again???
@@raamkumar986...So about that
Best 200m runner in history? Every watched Usain Bolt? 19.19!!! Michael Johnson never did 100m and that was Bolt's specialty!! All the pros and coaches always found interesting how Michael Johnson never got injured while leading a race. Michael Johnson was injured only when trailing a race. Just ask Donovan Bailey!!
You are a stupid person. Let me explain then:
MJ improved the 200m record from 19.72 to 19.32 - by 0.4 seconds!
Bolt only improved the record by 0.13 seconds. This is why MJ's record is far greater.
Bolt's speciality was the 100m and Johnson's speciality was the 400m. MJ was unbeaten at the 400m for 8 years (58 wins in a row), something Bolt cannot compete with.
This is absolutely my favorite MJ race of all time! Loved the rivalry between MJ and The SMTC...
Thank you for this! was looking for proper FULL footage of this race.
MJ said all the other sprinters celebrated when he got lane 8. You see his intensity at the end? Directed at them. As in "cheer now bitches!"lol
“From Lane 8”! Lol greatest track quote
I was so bummed for Michael as his ill-timed food poisoning effectively ended his chances of medaling in Barcelona. If he had not gotten sick, for sure he would have gotten gold.
Would've easily broken Mennea's record.
Crazy to think that he broke the 43s second barrier every year from 1992-2000. Even in his last year competing, his seasons best was 43.68
@@Juve_Ukeyou mean the 44s barrier
When it comes to both 200 & 400m Johnson is undoubtedly the king....
This man has the best running style i've ever seen
Ever seen by you,watch Flo jo and asafa powell
Mj stack up the muscles between 92 to 96! Hence the extra forces to exert into the ground.
Michael johnson, legend... best athlete ever... ouzes class... style,
Texas legend. Love him. Dominated in all events !
great upload thx jim
Two weeks before the 1992 Summer Olympics began, Johnson and his agent both contracted food poisoning at a restaurant in Spain. Johnson lost both weight and strength. He was the favorite to win the 200 m going into the Olympics, but he could do no better than sixth in his semifinal heat, and failed to reach the 200 m final
I was wondering why I never heard of him winning the 200 after seeing this video thanks!
He was poisoned
@@makeaway4554 - Do you believe he was?
@@chicnoir29 yes
@@makeaway4554Jesus is the way truth and life
it's too funny to see people holding the starting blocks
Nice footage of Johnson training.
This guy was unbelievable.
well marsh won the important race a few months later
Yeah Johnson had food poisoning
7:51
Why is MJ's fingers (thumb) so long ?
This is the second time I have noticed this
Commentary brought to you by Carl Lewis's agent?
I assume Johnson was in lane 8 those other 31 races in a row he won too. The only reaction was to lane draw 'luck', not what a great athletic perforamce we just watched.
Other useful fact: apparently making excuses is not making excuses.
preach George preach😇😇
Johnson looks far leaner here as opposed to his physique in '96
Had to build his body up once he knew he wanted to do the 200/400 double at championships. 8 rounds can do a lot to your body.
His coach was partial to Johnson running at a leaner weight.
Who are the commentary . It sounds like oj simpson . Im i correct?
Yes, you are correct. As a former world record holder (4 x 110y relay), OJ frequently did track commentary.
Lane 8 is not the worst in a 200 or 400 .
Just ask Wayde
Frankly it’s the best, not considering anything but it having the widest curve
If you're already the fastest in the field, lane 8 doesn't matter lol
Lane 1 is the worst. The turn is way too tight
so he didnt run the 400 in barcelona because of the scheduling ???
Yes that's correct. And he was able to successfully lobby the IAAF before the 1996 Atlanta games to change the 200 meters and 400 meters schedule. The original schedule had the 400 meters and 200 meters heats and finals combined on some days. For example, the 400 meters semifinals and the first two rounds of the 200 meters were to be held on the same day, and the 200 meters semis and 400 meters final on the same day a day later. After Johnson's successful lobby, the 400 meters heats and finals were all done prior to the start of the 200 meter heats (with a day's rest in between). The rest is history.
@@kobzster06 Michael's lobbying worked because of them cooperating with him at the 1995 world championships. Mike's original plan was to double at the '96 Olympics but he was initially rejected like a year or so before. The committee at the '95 world championships knew he wanted to double at the Olympics and said they would change the schedule at the world championships for him so he could do that there at least. When he won 200m and 400m gold at the championships that's when the Olympics people had to agree to work with Mike so he could do it at the Olympics because he had too big of a buzz and too many supporters and fans after what he did at the world champs. I'm sure they saw $$ signs and more viewers.
Michael mentions all this in interviews after the Olympics. Might have been years later but I got the information directly from him.
Mike Marsh look like Quark off Deep Space Nine.....
Michael Johnson is Cool.
@6:33 Check out Johnson's last foot placement before the finish line. Could he have been DQ'ed for that?
That sounds like OJ on the commentary
Teldrin Lathers: if OJ had been on the track with them he would've Killed them all! (Lol sorry!)
You see Michael Johnson the world 🌎 best 400meters runner won the faster man 100 meters Carl Lewis , No fast 100 meters love 200 or more metres Race. ,if Michael Johnson was in in the first labe he could have won with more distance
What a coincidence 😏😏
1:37
Wow Pause Literally 5.41
Something h is wrong with you for thinking h like that youbannedfrom watching what your really thinking about doing Leviticus 18:22 read, bleed and repent.
Fuck you and the Bible
@@Shem441 No my guy. Pay attention. That's how many of these stars get down. Sodom and Gomorrah style. Something is wrong with them for living like that. We need to start noticing this behavior and they need to repent for doing it. Not us. Shalom.
The null dugout expectably record because lace ultrascructurally cover in a sudden line. mushy, imported downtown
That’s the thing about aging athletes you always wonder prime vs prime. Or like Mayweather dodging Pac-Man til he slowed down.😁 just kidding nothing against Mayweather Jr.
He lost the 200m at the games ha ha loza
He had food poisoning
