Kenya's Ezekiel Kemboi wins the Men's 3000m Steeplechase event in the Olympic Stadium at the London 2012 Olympic Games (5 August).
France's Mahiedine Mekhissi-Benabbad won silver in the event with Kenya's Abel Kiprop Mutai winning bronze.
Since 1896, athletics has been on the programme of each edition of the Games of the Olympiad. Its presence on the Games programme has allowed its popularity to increase across the world. This popularity was also strengthened by the creation of the IAAF in 1912. Women's events appeared for the first time at the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, while the men's programme was standardised as of the 1932 Games in Los Angeles. Although at the beginning women were authorised to participate in only some events, today their programme is almost identical to that of the men.

Beutiful how these athletes celebrate. True athletes :)
Respect to 5th place.
TheTree0fDeath Respect !
Much respect
TheTree0fDeath is
Now the olympic champion.
@@Leo99z really?
It's the kemboi dance for me, in 2022 the memory are still fresh
The steeplechase is such a great event. You can really see the strain as some of the athletes struggle to get over the last few jumps. When you are giving it your all just to hold pace it is tough to come up with that little bit extra you need for the jump!

Great Athletes. A Kenyan falls and still get 5th!
Outstanding
@@andrewkiptoo3563 ;
You are right brother
That guy who fell is a real champ. He got right back up and started passing everyone
Great run. And a little celebration there at the end that is rarely seen from the Kenyans! Nice run from 2nd place as well. With all the focus on Kenya and Ethiopia, no one said a thing about him until he won the silver.
Steven Turner you had reason the commentator no tell a word for Mahiedine Mekhissi Benabbad whereas is the two consecutive silver medal in steeple chase pekin - london

Incredible how Kemboi accelerates in the last lap, what a talent!
Really curious to see how the race will go in Beijing this year and Rio next. Would like to see Jager for the USA right up there! Hoping to be in Rio myself for the final, what an experience that would be. Will sure be strange being a morning race.
💪💪💪💪
Did you follow it up in Tokyo 2020 we as Kenyan has lost our dominance
@@nessnzungu6962 Uganda won in the womens
@@waterproof4403 and also the men I guess
Now we have Eliud kip' in marathon
@@nessnzungu6962 and Bridig Kosgei the world record holder
Also Peres Jepchirchir the olympic marathon winner in Tokyo
Kenya has insane athletes. It's Ethiopians that are having a hard time
I like that you can hear the footsteps in this race, Ive never seen that before in the olympics but it makes me feel more immersed almost like im in the race myself.
Moments like this make me proud to be Kenyan....absolutely sublime
Dear lord all I wanna do is run again grant me this small mercy I’ve been injured for 5 months! These videos make me miss running so much
God hear his prayers
May God see you through...
❤💚
That kemboi dance makes me like Kenya the more.

London 2012💜 I miss those days
Also Beijing 2008
Tunawapenda sana mashujaa wetu. Ivo ivo ivo ivo!!!
Aaaaaa a kbsa
It’s so satisfying to see all of them jump😭😭
I'm happy how the commentator focuses on Kenyans. It must be nice to be Kenyan
Really good race by Brimin Kipruto too. Fell and still got 5th.
Congratulations 'Bakarna'
Following the footsteps slowly by slowly. Hopefully you'll be able to Congratulate me too soon.
Were it not for the slide you'll have won medal I'm sure...
NOBODY DARES KENYANS EXCEPT ETHIOPIANS, AM PROUD KENYAN!!!
the interesting thing is that KENYANS are willing to TRAIN BRITISH ,USA and OTHERS in the high altitudes of RIFT VALLEY and that doesnt cause them loose to them in GAMES!!
How kemboi loses his head just before the homestretch should be a case study 😂😂
Watching over and over again and again
kenya home athletics ,,,,,waching 2019
Greatest 3000M steeplechase runner of all time.
Who is here 2023 . Hi from Kenya ❤.
B. Kipruto tried it all 👏.
Congratulations Kenya proud of being a Kenyan
Kenya foreva
BRAVO! our wonderful athletes
beautiful celebrating 12:30
helps to cushion the impact and more or less forces you to step on the barrier instead of hurdling it like most people do. it requires a much different technique, and it looks cool
Excellent sportsmanship, keep up !!!
I think that's Kenyan pride that we couldn't let go. The Ethiopians are killing us in 5000/10000m, so at least the Kenyans have gat sumtin' to hold on. Kudos ya'll.
What makes Kenyans so goddamn good at running?
JasminLeblanc beats me.. even we close neighbours( uganda) have failed to get it
JasminLeblanc they might be practicing with lions
Jed Mark Rodriguez Definitely you are glueless 'bout Kenya or Africa as a whole! Go for safari to learn more.
hahhahaha
JasminLeblanc our runners have the inborn ability in addition to the high altitude training
When it comes to Steeplechase Gold its a Kenyan Monopoly
A tip for all, don't aim to be the pacer because you'll lose momentum because you're pressured among other things.Hence why you see the Kenyans for instance just take it easy and take off at the end.Converse energy.
So truee😂😂🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
I am proud to be KENYAN!
PS: Kemboi thank you for the best meme ever made! 12:15😂
Gran gesto deportivo del francés con el pequeño keniata.
agreed..........my first (and only so far) steeplechase race....i felt the worst pain ever........its madd hard
2024 kemboi still the king❤
You only see that on this man ? He's a great athlete and a good friend of the winner.
And he is not learning any dance from Usain Bolt because Usain Bolt knows nothing about the dance called Ndombolo...
Yeah, I have no idea why they said that. Maybe they assumed that one part at the beginning looked similar to the Lightning Bolt? Tbh Usain Bolt probably knows about it now, after seeing this
Ahaa😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Wonderful my country Kenya
He didn't win because he was Kenyan! He won because he worked is ass off
Shon Phillips no it’s cause he’s a Kenyan!!!!
@@Afronad :)
Those genetics are to blame...
Winning is part of Kenyans...deep in the dna
To win at this level, you need more than just hard work!
Thanks alot
Respect à ce grand champion!
2024 still here watching this great runner
@12:01, "Ng'et Weri", Mutai, that was a good word to Kemboi.😂👍
Translation....Get up man/ stand up man.
I lked Kemboi¨s dance
I miss kemboi running the SC😢
Ng'et weri who heard that? Proud of my language
Kakas
Mutai to Kemboi, I heard it😂😂😂😂
Kemboi will be back in London 2017 to run the frenchman into the ground and reclaim his medal!!!! Go Kemboi!
Kemboi dancing is enough for my day😅😅😅
They all super CHAMPIONS GREAT! GREAT!
race starts at 3:10
+Moses Kariuki,dats true,i agree wth u.May God bless our mom KENYA.
Back here in 2024,kemboi really represented us well
The mental strength of these old blacks men have is really commendable.. In this age also.. They are dominant
Muita força esses tem meu respeito
Kenya owns this race till eternity...BOOM
Oh my. Tokyo 2021 we got defeated. First time.
They should rename this to the Kenyan race.
how tactical of Kemboi?viva Kenya!
🇰🇪🏆🇰🇪💐Well done Kemboi 💐
response to british commentators" actually kemboi was dancing on the tracks before bolt even dreamed of been the legend that he is today. only difference is 3000m steeplechase vs 100m popularity.
One thing that I don't understand is that sometimes water obstacle is in the outside and sometimes is in the inside. When its in the outside it seems they have to run more than 3000m.
They adjust the start line accordingly, depending on whether the water jump's inside or outside. They run 3000m with regular hurdle spacing whatever happens.
Even jager has got to medal at the next Olympics
chris perillo he did
This has been a Kenyans race.We should have a gold medal for Kenyans and another for the rest.
Feels good to be a Kenyan
I like Kenya race super
My country people, mad respect
iyo dance makes me proud to be Kenyan...
Rest in peace our legend kariuki
Wow 👍amazing race 🏃
I like how they make a 4 minute mile pace look easy
Almost all forms of celebration at an Olympics are fine and highly deserved, but in my opinion running to the outside lane is a tad disrespectful to other competitors.
***** All the 8 lanes are legit to be run on and there's nothing wrong winning (finishing) on lane one or eight! That happens when you in shape if you are a runner.
Kenyans are made for running, they're so beast !
Evan Jager will win in 2016, mark my words.
+Alvin W how many American records in steeple has he got?
How do you know he's even competing in rio?
+Brayden Little no one's gonna beat my Kenya nay time soon, not in Steeplechase Men
beat Kenyans? aha.. dream again, not this century
+Aneya Florence don't be too arrogant "kuna kupanda na kushuka" just be thankful to God for giving our athlete's the ability and pray that the greatness continues. in short just be humble
Una carrera de primer nivel .
What an amazing sportsmanship!
Kiprop coming back from a trip to take 5th. Everyone behind him should have sat down and waited for the race to end.
Muy bueno, emocionante e increible.La gente de España da demasiada importancia al fútbol y la verdad es que este deporte los 3000 obstáculos son muy bonitos.
Good work professor of steeplechase,show them how its done...
The 5th place.....you are an hero
