In my opinion, the best story is Pat Tillman's. He was a football player who walked away from a 3.7 million dollar contract to join the Army Rangers, for the sole reason he wanted to give back to his country. He was killed in action. Look him up some time, it's truly inspiring.
@geauxtigers16 come ooooooon are you serious?? I hope you're not...I don't know what you've been told over there in United States but, get out of your country and may be the truth will be clearer...he's a cheater, unfortunately. It does not detract from his fight against the cancer.
@kerlazinho umm love to tell you that there is no evidence that he cheated, unlike just about everyone else. And your also taking it out on America because we dominate in Cycling just like in the majority of all other sports. Hence the Olympics. Now please tell me what country you live in, so I can give you examples as to why we are superior to you.
@geauxtigers16 oh no you don't dominate in cycling, oh no!! ahaha where you from?? are you sick?? The spanish dominate, because they are doped, juste like lance and floyd landis...And the olympics?? ahahah marion jones was doped, ben johnson was doped..you can only win by cheating..it's sad for the sport.
And for exemple, in soccer or rugby, you think you're superior???, ahahahaha you're very funny you know?
i don't want to be rude, but Lance really didn't win the tour de france until '99, and that's after the cancer period...and also he never won at the olympics from all i know...anyway,i'm pretty sure he is not the youngest rider to ever win the tour...
i don't want to be rude, but Lance really didn't win the tour de france until '99, and that's after the cancer period...and also he never won at the olympics from all i know...
the person that did this should really get their facts about lance right, never olympic champ and he was not the youngest rider to win the tour. he only one his first tour after cancer.
Lance Armstrong is a real inspiring HERO determination on his mind STRONG WILL and concentration is the key to success even if adversity is against to you!!!!! BE THE BEST in everything.
I didn't see pele, I didn't see Cruyff, I didn'd see platini ( And I never see maradona clean, always drug) but I see Zidane and he is the best of the last 20 years at less
Zidane and Shane Warne????????? Tiger Woods, Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, Lance Armstrong and Michael Schumacer are the greatest sport stars of all time
Nice original choice. Just curious as to how many pele games have you personally watched? As it is your opinion right your not just saying what 99% of other football fans say are you?
Video was alright, i have got to say i wouldn't call Warne inspirational, nor Zidane really. Player of the millennium is a f***ing ridiculous title for anyone in any sport. I am interested to know how a board of French men sitting at the Fifa headquarters are able to know and evaluate every player in the last 1,000 years! lol. Also Zidane hasnt really even been much of an icon in the last 5 decades In most places in the world the likes of Pele and Maradona are the names and will continue to be.
warne is not a fuckin legend...maybe in australia.....he has been banned for drugs...he broke his marriage due to him being sleeping with every other whore.....
Some1 liek Sachin is an idol. Respected all over the world.
Lance is probably one of the greatest sports athletes in history. What he did was awe-inspiring...on every level. I've never been impressed with what "teams" do...you're only as great as what other's feed you!
as great as lance has been, his sport is very one dimensional as far as sports go...cycling requires really, zero skill. in my opinion it is much more impressive for an athlete to match the stamina, and strenght etc, with skill.
Give me an example...BTW, I think the greatest athlete in history wasn't human...it was the only perfect creature that man has ever seen...no one disagrees...he stands alone in his physical, anatomical and aesthical perfection...his name was Secretariat. We'll never see his perfection again. The greatest moment in sports history is the one event that made men cheer, applaud and break out into tears at the same time...it was so magical on every level...Secretariat winning the Belmont.
were talking about humans here, not animals. every single horse is more athletic than the most athletic human. why don't we bring grey hounds into the discussion...
Name a greyhound that defies the law of nature and INCREASES HIS SPEED throughout a race...NO other human or animal in recorded history accomplished this feat. Secretariat is the ONLY creature, not just animal, that was anatomically perfect enough to be "supernatural". You were able to witness something no human will ever see again....I wouldn't be so cavalier. No human will ever have the magic or perfection of Secretariat. We were lucky enough to have witnessed the magic...he's irreplaceable.
Really so when grant hacket swam the second half of his race faster than the first half he wasn't increasing his speed throught the race? or when olympic rowers close the race faster than any other part of the race that's not increasing their speed throughout the race? You sir are retarded. And if you're going to bring horses into it seabiscuit would be the one to do, a horse with a gimp leg.
Not my opinion...FACT. It's documented that ONLY Secretariat, not any human or other horse INDIVIDUALLY, was able to increase his speed thorughout an entire race. And you seem to think that TEAM effort is the same as an individual effort...Your comparison of a race horse to team of rowers sounds not only illogical but retarded, as you would put it...Seabsicuit was a great horse but not in Secretariat's or Man O War's league. He had heart...not incredible speed.
and check the title mate, It's inspiring sports heros. Not superfreaks with more natural talent than ever needed.
So to say he had heart not incredible speed, is exactly what would fit in this video. If the video were titled the sports superfreaks, sure put your Secretariat in there.
As you can tell, I'm Secretariat's biggest fan:-) I agree...he was the superfreak of nature...What I consider to be the greatest athlete of all time isn't a human...it's a horse:-) You may want to watch ESPN's 2 videos on Secretariat...he's the only non-human that was ranked in the top 10 greatest athletes of the 20th century. He still has a huge fan base after all these years. I think the Belmont was the only sporting event in history that made viewers break into tears...Watch it:-)
And BTW, no horse has broken ANY of Secretariat's track records in the Triple Crown..even 36 years later!! He still has the fastest mile and a half. Watch his Triple Crown wins and especially, the Belmont to watch his greatness. He won by 31 lengths!! Michael Phelps only matched Mark Spitz's record, 7 world records....he only broke the NUMBER of wins because he was ALLOWED to race an 8th race...Mark Spitz raced 7 & set 7 world records...Phelps raced 8 and set 7 world records.
i'm not sure where Michael Phelps comes into any of this, i said Grant Hacket. Who FACT increased his speed throughout the race in Fukuoka Japan in 2001 when he set the 1500 world record, the second half of his race was faster than the first, it's called negative splitting. I've done it many times as does thousands of other swimmers.
And i wasn't comparing rowers to a horse race, simply stating that they improve their speed over the race.
look beyond your stupid opinions, no matter what you do, to train for 12 hours a day, overcome cancer and then train again, you need an infinite will, that is the one thing that separates the normal from the best. No one including you could comprehend what he's pushed through.
You're right. What Lance Armstrong accomplished is absolutly amazing. He's a great cyclist. But people should consider the fact that he only focused on the Tour of France, while other cyclists have to be good the whole season through. So in that sence it would seem rather unfair to call him greatest cyclist ever. But nonetheless, all the respect to what he did. Winning the Tour 7 times after recovering from cancer, that's really incredible!!!
Get your facts straigh, youngest winner of the tdf Henri Cornet 1904 age 20, lance never won an olympic gold only 1 bronce in 2000. Also 12 hours a day everyday haha, longest rides 8 and definately not everyday. Read up before you post stuff. also he only started riding again almost 2 years after being diagnosed.
"The only captain to win a world cup for France" - I'm pretty sure that it was Didier Deschamps who captained France to their one World Cup, also captaining them to the European Championships two years later.
Zizou was captain when he was sent off in the 2006 World Cup final.
By the way, good choice with Michael Johnson. Even with one record long gone, and another looking under threat from the likes of Usain Bolt, he still captures the imagination of many budding athletes.
thankyou. this is the first time i've watched an 'inspirational' clip when you don't just have American sporting moments. and shane warne.. amazing. cheers.
