  • Ben Johnson was the fastest and best ever. All sprinters are on something at this level. With modern training techniques and faster tracks, Ben Johnson could've ran 9.5 right now. In this race, he slowed around 80 meters and then at the end raised his hand. Even in this race, he would've done this in 9.72 - 9.76 back in 88...

  • All runners up to the fourth place were taking advantage of illegal substances.

  • It ain't EASY being CHEESY.

  • Ben johnson and Donovan Bailey both had their American counter parts but now America have Tyson and all we have is crosby lol

  • Ben Johnson is the true winner of the gold medal. Both Lewis and Christie also test positive for banned substances during their careers and let's be honest, they were all cheating. Johnson's only fault is that he has a raving lunatic for a doctor who knew how to administer the drugs but didn't have a clue when to cease the program. They all cheated, and so has every other medal winner in the 100 metre competition since then. I declare now before you Ben Johnson the 1988 gold medal winner

  • Look like he runnin on air

  • ben he is the best he is talent u thin carl lewis he didn`t take drugs ben u are the best

  • If he was on steroids, how come his penis didn't shrink, like mine? And how come my PB is still 15 seconds?

  • Fastest junkie on earth :)

  • best race in history

  • Comment removed

  • Maestro!!!!!!

  • Doping Guy...not cool at all :/

  • roids cant give you a start like that! he beat an american so the americans screwed with his tests cuz all these guys were on some kind of performance enhancer but johnson got caught cuz he smashed an american! AMerica paid for the olympic games in salt lake city so doing something like this would be more simple than that. Donavin Baily smashed micheal johnson to get revenge and Canada would celebrate eventually . AMERICAN are not as athletic as us because their nation is polluted and genes

  • Its funny because every one of those runners used roids at the time...

  • @lpuck4

    Not Calvin Johnson who placed 4th, eventually 3rd, he should have gotten gold, Linford was on juice, Carl on stimulants. He ran a 10.36 at the age of 40 without training, just natural speed. The jamaicans today though? Not looking good, too many of them running too fast.

  • Wade Exum, the United States Olympic Committee's director of drug control administration from 1991 to 2000, gave copies of documents to Sports Illustrated which revealed that some 100 American athletes who failed drug tests and should have been prevented from competing in the Olympics were nevertheless cleared to compete.It was revealed that Lewis tested positive three times before the 1988 Olympics for pseudoephedrine, ephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine

  • Olympic sport is disgraceful because its big business couple with politic. Fans wants runners to go faster and faster. To achieve inhuman speed requires help. Share in the blame people, to include the poster who wrote, "I remember the day....disgraceful"

  • diickroid.

  • There's no doubt to me that Carl Lewis' was a covered up that is for sure! IOC (International Olympic Committee) is so nasty, nasty, nasty is always been that way!

  • Why is it that they did not take that medal from him?????? Because he was not an American (USA)..... There's a lot of corruption an hypocrisy in sports too! I wonder how come Carl Lewis has never been suspended! Cz he's from the Usa and they always suppose to win also suppose to be the best but not any more!

  • his start is amazing, he jumps lol

  • Lewis failed a drug test before the 1988 olympics, that drug is now legal.....

    fuck you.

  • druggie 123

  • Look at him jumping out of those blocks!

  • remeber this...PREIMIERE AND NUMBERO UNO-1ST AND WORLD CHAMPION...BEN JOHNSON, CANADA!! alright!

  • Comment removed

  • I couldnt stop staring at his dick.. no homo...

  • why Ben jumped at the beginning of the race?

    porque salta Ben al principio de la carrera??

  • @deibidmc it was his starting technique, he pushed himself with 2 feet off

  • @Mynxor OK, thank you, now I understand it.

  • HAHA is dick can't even keep up with his junky ass

  • holy shoots how did he get dat start like wtf..wish if i cud start like dat

  • When Ben Johnson won that race he was a Great Canadian, then a few days later when his urine test results came back positive for steroids, the Canadian press was referring to him no longer as a great Canadian but a "damn Jamaican" who should be sent back to his country. Ah, Hypocrisy and Racism! I never get tired of it :)

  • @machintruc313 i totally remember that.....very disgraceful....and also shocking as a Canadian.

  • @machintruc313 That may be hypocrisy, but it is surely not racism, my dear.

  • @machintruc313 lol!! they gave the medal to carl lewis who was tested possitive for steroids even before the competition and they let him get that just cause he is an american, talk about hypocrisy.

  • @Mr12inches1 hes tested positive for stims, stil a cheating american puppet

  • @machintruc313 I'd love to see some quotes from the Canadian press calling him a "damn Jamaican".

  • @rubsley google it then, 1988 seoul games, ben johnson. I wrote that from memory, saw and heard it like many others when I was living in Canada. Next time check first, then talk. He was a hell of a sprinter.

  • roids

  • moi je trouve que ben johnson est vraiment fromidable malgré le dopage ! il reste un tres belle athlète respectable...car je suis dans les starts je pense a lui !

  • @velvet4u

    Here's the facts,every athlete that's on roids knows the dangers and there fully aware of what there doing 2 there bodies..If ur willing 2 pay £800 for a ticket for the 100 metres final in 2012 and watch non drugged athletes then good luck 2 u..We all know who's going 2 win that final oh and bye the way he's not drug free(have a think about who im talking about)..Drug use in athletics is worse now than it was in Ben Johnson's day..

  • @steroidsr4losers

    Here's a suggestion why don't they have 2 olympics,that way u could have all the athletes on roids and all the natural athletes not competing against each other..The natural games would die a very slow death because people want 2 c athletes running like express trains,I'm natural and could run the 100 metres in 10 sec but I couldn't do 9.79 or 9.59 and that's the facts..

  • @thomasstanners1967 But why would you want an olympics where people are destroying their lives.

    It is not just a matter of running like express trains for the temporary thrill. Steroids have serious "LIFELONG" side effects.

  • @thomasstanners1967 LMAO!! I remember having this same conversation with someone many years ago; playing with the idea of having a "SterOlympics" lol!! Just for the lulz to see what the times etc., would be like xD.

  • steroids are not...that's something to watch from that angle

  • @steroidsR4losers u will be begging for steroids when ur testosterone level is falling off trust me, then come bac to youtube and kiss my ass

  • roids

  • roids

  • roids

  • roids

  • his dick is also on steroid...

  • At least Ben ultimately had the guts to confess. Something most of his competitors were never man enough to do.

  • the difference between the canadian olympic team and the american is the americans know how to hide and protect their athletes, shame what happened to ben

  • @KushPizzaSleep Damn right. There were like 5 guys from this race including Carl Lewis that tested positive for performance enhancing drugs. I can not stand Lewis, that guy is a huge hypocrite and an arrogant jackass.

  • @EPizits I did'nt know that,is that actual fact or rumor???

  • @rockpig63 That is 100% fact. Lewis failed a drug test TWICE before the 1988 olympics. But it was covered up.

  • @EPizits he did try to say it was some medication but if u see him after the zurich race before this race where he beats johnson u can see his pupils dilated like hes on something

  • @EPizits They werent for steroids though. Johnson was so doped up it was ridiculous. He was so blatant about it that the IOC had to do something.

  • @rockpig63 its in bigger stronger faster (the documentary), the letters are there say he failed lol and so did other american athletes aswell!

  • @KushPizzaSleep EXACTLY! Well put!!

  • ben was to fast for 80's

  • fuckin carl lewis u took steroids too while this poor man takes all the heat

  • its quite amazing because my real name is Ben Johnson, and I know for fact I didn't take any drugs!

  • For the record, every sprinter in this race was 'juiced' except for the guy that finished last. Poor Ben....just wanted to shut Carl Lewis up once and for all and he got hung out to dry and everyone else walked away 'clean'. US Athletics complained to the Olympic commitee and they nailed him after this race....will never forgive my country for not fighting harder for him and returning the favour to the Americans.

  • @frenchycanada well fucking said

  • @frenchycanada Spot on!!! Johnson was the best, plain and simple. Indeed, it was some of the other competitors were on way higher levels of oil injectables than Ben - that makes his feat even more incredible. I always loved the way commentators who were full of ***, NOT knowledge, sounded surprised by Bens starts. Nobody had the strength to start the way he did (actually leaping out from the blocks, Jesus!!!) and he was subsequently the best and most explosive starter around!

  • Check out the SCORE.ca interview

    GREAT INTERVIEW THE TRUTH IS COMING NOV 2

  • druggie or not, his technique was absolutely amazing. no side to side chest movement, 100% power efficiency.

  • @speedFIYAH

    If he came in last place, you wouldn't be "raving" about his technique.

    Stay natural buddy!

  • @steroidsR4losers look at everybody else in the race, even lewis (because hes panicking) was not perfect. i am 100% anti drugs, but the display of technique from Ben was incredible. Only asafa powell has better efficiency in my opinion.

  • @speedFIYAH

    Let's continue to support DRUG FREE sports.

    Stay natural buddy!

  • @speedFIYAH

    Who cares how "good" he ran...he also CHEATED by using STEROIDS.

    Stay natural buddy!

  • @steroidsR4losers i agree. But lewis told after his carreer that he also used it. Its odd that he can still keep his medals.

  • @steroidsR4losers and they even stripped Ben of all records he ever ran. Thats odd...still Lewis did the same. Told about it and can keep it.

  • Lewis was on roids to. He has admitted to it.

  • @nitrogif lol no he hasnt admitted to it dont tell such a shit! if he was doped he was on amphetamins and not on steroids! because they were in the vitamines idiot!

  • @nitrogif

    He got CAUGHT using STEROIDS. Why should he (or any STEROID CHEATER) get ANY respect for not denying the fact? If he didn't get CAUGHT, you think he would have later on came out and confessed that he used STEROIDS? He STILL is a liar...he just got CAUGHT.

    Stay natural buddy!

  • Wouldn't mind seeing a 'virtual' race done with computer graphics with all of the top 100m guys from the past 20 years in it. Would love to see Ben Johnsons fastest run superimposed on Carl Lewis, super imposed on Usain Bolt etc....

  • Comment removed

  • @perkiomenville

    Donovan Bailey - 1996 Athens WR/OR 9.84

  • So many dopers. Real world record probably like 9.96

  • all you stupid people that think that anyone at this level is not taking drugs of one kind or anther is a retard, how is it cheating if they are all doing it, steroids are old news , they have HgH , blood dopeing EPO and if you still needed steroids, you can just buy a desinor steroid, from a lab that isnt on the dopeing list they have been doing it for years and years. its old tec, stop crying cheater and look at this for what it is the fastest run in the world, still. you people cant do this

  • Ben Johnson was so obsessed after losing in Zurich that he couldnt help himself and used anabolics massively (look his eyes and muscle mass compared to Zurich's sprint), Carl Lewis knew the moment Johnson passed the line so far head of him that something was really wrong and we all know the rest is history.. Johnson was for ever dishonored in the field of sport. How shamful.. But am glad this happened to him, he never had the delicatessen, the class and humbleness Carl Lewis did.

  • @europeandancer please dont put humble and carl lewis in the same sentence

  • @DamzCK All right I give u that but Carl still had class even if he blown like a rockette after winning a race...

  • @europeandancer ARE YOU ON CRACK!?????? QUEEN CARL is one the biggest PRICKS in Sports History right up there with John McEnroe He was so arrogant & abrasive towards the media he couldn't get a mojour endorsment in his own country in his hey day (1980 -1984) it wasn't until Big Ben showed up he quieted down a bit but he was still annoying he's a cheat too tested positive ( he admitted it) but they covered it up he's taken shots at Bolt too Even retired he's still a bitch.

  • @LVSWTZ lol I guess am not following that close anymore - okie what I am trying to say is that Carl got style when racing hmmm I agree he's still a bitch and was okie but he was very much high class attitude when it came down to the race, his body language and the way her held himself along with a lean not overly muscular physique, that's what always stroke me when seeing him..

  • @europeandancer Sorry my misunderstanding lol. I agree on the track his sprinting style was perfect no one looked more graceful running that fast.

  • @europeandancer Carl Lewis is totally in love with himself. Anytime anybody beat him, he had an excuse. Now he thinks Bolt's cheating???? Lewis is a bitch who can't admit there are people out there better than he was. Total narcisist.

  • @KennedyCorey I dont desagree with all that.. My point is truly that no one else to this day have or had had the style and gracefulness he did when on the track.. Regardless juicing or narcissism, the guy is a track field legend.

  • @KennedyCorey I think its because Carl Lewis is a cheat as well, He knew how hard he ran with the aid of steroids, so he is thinking just like many other athletes, ''who comes in front of me, must have used steroids as well''

  • best ever

  • all you faggots that support this loser is probably canada...you're all fucking cheaters!

  • fucking cheater

  • how to cheat at athletics

    

  • Johnson was a BADASS....i miss that dude

  • @gprince21 you miss his dick thrusting into your asshole

  • @siliconsurf wow what a clever statement! fucking loser faggot tries to act like a tough guy on the internet....idiot

  • @gprince21 faggot

  • @siliconsurf great comeback, son

  • Anyone who thinks that Lewis wasn't beefed up with hormones is lying to themselves. Ben Johnson, my friend and the true champion of the 100 metres in Seoul Korea, 1988

  • @PONYBOY430 He is also a fucking loser, a fucking fraud, a fucking cheater, and a fucking failure

  • @PowerSprinter the USA hockey federation paid the Soviet federation millions to lose the 'miracle on ice' so shut your fat mouth yankee

  • @juzu4me Yeah i totally believe that *rolls eyes*

  • @PowerSprinter well you're probably a naive fool who thinks flo-jo got that good drinking green tea and working hard. *rolls eyes*

  • @juzu4me Nope, i bet she took steroids, although that is mere speculation.  With a guy like Ben J., there is no speculation needed.

  • @PowerSprinter Johnson got caught because he had an idiot of a doctor. Lewis obviously was pumped full of hormones but he never failed his tests. Give your head a shake, they all do it you fool

  • @juzu4me

    Lewis = skinny scrawny dude who was naturally gifted. couldnt squat more than 300lbs

    Ben Johnson = shorter, thick jacked man who could squat well over 600 pounds and bench press over 400 pounds.  also little sidenote, was actually caught for steroids

    i cant tell you that i know lewis never took steroids and you cant tell me that he did. but i have to give him (and all athletes) the benifit of doubt

  • @PowerSprinter Lewis was purported to have taken steroids and these accusations came from his own team. Come on, face reality. Lewis should give that gold back to Johnson because they were all on steroids. Lewis must have had some killer masking agents I tell you! Whatever, you know damn well he was on steroids but you'll never admit it. ciaoo

  • @juzu4me See tht makes now sense. if Lewis really did take steroids, then he shouldnt give his gold to Ben Johnson, he should give it to the next best CLEAN racer

  • @PowerSprinter which was who? Linford Christi was not clean. They were all cheating, only one got caught

  • @juzu4me See you are just assuming, they were not all cheating, thats bullshit. maybe a small few were, but we dont know. All we know is that they passed and ben didnt. therefore ben deserves what he got. there is no definitive proof than linford christi, lewis, or anyone in this race cheated, just speculation

    are you canadian?

  • @PowerSprinter yes, I am Canadian. Dude I hope you don't mind that I am going to send you a site with an article I just read. All three tested positive for banned substances during their careers, and Lewis in 1998. Please read it and let's all face reality. Thanks for your time

  • @PowerSprinter It was revealed that Lewis tested positive three times before the 1988 Olympics for pseudoephedrine, ephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, banned stimulants and bronchodilators the usual excuse at this time was cough bottle he got away with it

  • @juzu4me He acutally failed one test ,but theylet him compete anyway.

    It was on a documentary called bigger,faster,stronger

    I'm not sure if I remember correctly;you may be right.

  • @shamwowftl yeah Lewis did fail a drug test but of course his team greased some palms and let him go on competing. Johnson was clearly the better sprinter on that day and got ROBBED of gold

  • @juzu4me I agree!

  • @PowerSprinter Kid, can you do me a favor and STFU, you filthy cunt!! Why is it always Ben?? Ben this, Ben that, just stfu and stop bitching and bitching and bitching and bitching and bitching because must I remind you that your fellow American GayLewis was tested positive 3x before the Seoul Olympics 1988!! But of course I can't quite expect that from an American.

    USA= The Nationality of Roids!!!!

  • @LightningBolt700 all of that is speculation, im not saying that lewis is innocent, or that other americans are, im just saying that the one thing we know is that Johnson is a cheater. Who knows how many else cheated, we will never know

  • @PowerSprinter Yeah, but you can't blame him!! Everybody was cheating. Ben would had never cheated if they were clean. Seoul destroyed Ben's career, so did America!!! He could have been a true legend, but he learned from the negative examples like FagLewis.

  • @LightningBolt700 Dumb ass, Germany first produced artificial testosterone in the 30's, which are steroids.

  • @astrolifter Germany Invented everything in the 30's.

  • @astrolifter Since when I mentioned where were steroids created, dumbass??

  • Why does everyone always defend ben johnson? he was a fraud, he i a loser for the sport, and he cheated. he got caught, yes maybe others cheated too, but they didnt get caught. Also, to assume that they all used steroids is rediculous, probaly 2 others used in that race at most.

  • @PowerSprinter I'm backing my claim. This is something I copied and paste from other web sites, not my words. "2003, it was disclosed that Carl Lewis tested positive for a substance in 1988 but it was not deemed serious enough to pursue. So they say." "Christie's career and standing in athletics have unfortunately been seriously tainted by alleged use of performance enhancing substances." Now I just named the two for you, there's more I made up none of this Bullshit you know nothing.

  • @Din0might7 Oh snap, you found that directly on the internet? Thats legit, because you know the internet is always right, right? Dude, there is always someone claiing bullshit on the internet. and even if those were legit claims, then that means that lewis and christie were also cheaters. it doesnt make ben johnson less of a cheater. What you said is purely speculation with NO PROOF.

  • @PowerSprinter I toke me less then 5 mins to find those quotes. Give me a day, I would find thousands. Give me a year and a grant, to fund my project, I would have hard evidence. I called Marion Jones out before Victor Conte ratted her out. Your right though, those guys cheating doesn't mean Ben didn't. But this proves that I didn't just make all this up. You just made up that I made it up. When infact I have read lots on the subject. Seoul 88 the dirtiest race in history.

  • This was the race when everyone started getting scared and times went up. Look how many track stars retired soon after this because they were afraid of getting caught and having medals taken away or imageds tarnished. Most people never knew Ben was autistic and really let the sport/doctors use him and push him around. They were all dirty so it was as fair as anything!

    Everyone called H. Cansaco a liar.....he told the truth and nobody believed him.

  • Poor Ben. Everybody knows all of these guys were dirty. If Ben runs clean he probably wouldn't have made the finals, not alone win. He does what everybody else does an he's labeled a cheat. They are all on something, and he was the fastest. Ben Johnson won this race. I saw it with my own eyes. Show me the drug tests. The drug tests the the dirtest thing in here, they catch who they want to catch.

  • @Din0might7 Boo woo, cry me a river will ya. He cheated and got caught. thats what happens, you get punished and embarassed. No not all of the runners were juicing, you just made that bullshit up to cover for the cheating loser

  • @Din0might7 agreed. The palms were greased and Ben Johnson was the one they fingered. No one can tell me that Carl Lewis won the gold that year. Ben is the true winner of that gold

  • not only was he taking drugs but he was selling them,

    thats how he funded his running habit.

  • Discrace to Canada!!!!

  • Carl lewis , Linford christie ..who were also in the 1988 olympic final have tested positive for steroids in there career.. ( You can even google this fact).. it makes me sick that ben johnson copped so much shit and the others got away and nobody really made a big deal about it..

    what makes me even sicker is that the gold medal was taken from ben and given to carl lewis (another guy that was also on drugs) .. THATS BEN'S MEDAL

  • correctly : 9.58^^

  • Ben Johnson was awesome back then , he ran 9.79 full of dope and now theres a dude who ran 9.69 and everyone believes hes clean :p lmfao^^ Btw , the guy on the left has a real bad technique , he runs like a goose , he should keep his legs straight :p He would go faster :p

  • ...
