Berlin 1936 men's 10000m

[Losrandir]

"No läheppä sinä". "Lähen."

Why were Hitler and Goering cheering for the Finns? Or maybe they were mad that the Japanee wasn't winning anymore.

[Losrandir]

@kozmon0t Well, those three are all very much white and northern, so why wouldnt they. Pretty impressive for a small country

[kozmon0t]

@Losrandir Because Finns aren't "Aryans." Not that there's any such thing as an Aryan, but Finns are Finn-Ugric Baltic and not closely related to Germans or most Europeans, for the most part. Most Finno-Ugric people actually live in Russia, which Hitler called Asiatic.

I bet Hitler decided Finland was of his "race" because it fit in with using Finland as leverage against the USSR.

[Losrandir]

@kozmon0t You are right. I was being foolish I guess. I read history though. Where were the Finnish people originated? Propably somewhere Peter the Great decided to make his country, that fucker. And the Saami people. I need to think thousands of years of ago for that and it isn't all that easy

[kozmon0t]

@kozmon0t Some linguists say proto-Uralic was first spoken along the Volga river. The major Uralic tribes in Russia have autonomous areas, at least officially. There's the Mari, the Komi... I can't remember them all. Karelians of course, almost the same as Finns.

Nykyään pärjäisivät myös, ennen vanhaan treenasivat järkevästi, nykyään huippujuoksija poltetaan loppuun muutamassa vuodessa, paria poikkeusta lukuunottamatta.

Stalin realized too late how hard the Finnish guys were that time

[4807avh]

Paavo Nurmi was the greatest,but in 1936 he was too old.

Nevertheless he won 9 gold medals. All of them in long distance running.

[MiKKA335]

Was that Ahn Do at 0:53 ?

[papmjny]

The Finns - really aryan race - hehheh hahaa

[geheimzinnigheid]

The fourth runnner is Murakoso Kouhei（村社 講平）.His nickname was a small Giant. In that days, Finns were strong in long distance.Their main trainning was the fartlek.

[poo72]

Ei ihme, että tuon kuntosia miehiä ei voitettu sodassa, toista se ois nyt.

Jep, tämä nerokas huomiosi heittää saavutuksen romukoppaan. Mukana oli ainoastaan viidenkymmenen valtion edustajia. Kaikkihan tuolloin kolmoisvoittoja saivat.

[pyllywaltteri]

No kuka vittu sano että mää sitä vähättelen.. Sitä vaan että nykyään tuppaa noissa oleen afrikkalaiset niin kärjessä että olis voinu tossakin tulla mitalikolmikkoon muutoksia
