  • This has nothing to do with a winner, this is just plain stupid - not listening to your body as an athlete. Obviously she's not capable. Honestly I think this is pathetic.

  • HAHAHAHAHA WOMEN ARE SO STUPID AND ONLY GOOD FOR ORAL, VAGINAL ANND ANAL SEX

  • @DrBukcake oh FY

  • queria está lá pra aplaudi- la de pé.

  • esta mulher é foda um prova de superação é de aplaudir esta mulher !!!

  • Isso sim que é superação! Excelente vídeo!

  • Parabéns! Isso sim que é superação! Simplesmente fantástico!

  • esse ex-padre viado deveria ser fuzilado!!!

    já gabrielle é o máximo em superação!! sempre me emiciono ao ver as imagens!!!!

  • If anyone has ever run or jogged, they will identify with this. The sheer desire to not be beat. An inspiration for living life, too.

    Don't ever let the bastards grind you down.

  • this is sick!

    ps: scheiss means shit in german...

  • Holy Shit!!!...this is what i call a stunning willpower!!! she aint no ordinary woman..thats for sure!

  • She is called Anderson-Schiess, Scheiss is german and means shit ^.-

  • @05Night33

    Congrats genious. You made the effort to write the name at least one time wrong. She's called Andersen-Schiess, and Schiess means shoot (yourself). Scheiss auf dich.

  • @thebudo1

    Thanx, to explain a german, what Schiess means =P

    And when we are talking about writing wrong, i'll say you, that you have to write it with a small "s". So you wrote it wrong, like me. Your as genious as me!

    In german we say "Wish first in front of your one door", think about it =P

  • One of the most incredible things i have ever seen in my life!! Have goosebumps every bloody where. What a woman!!

  • I remember watching this from home, and urging her on. This film doesn't show it, but when she crossed the finish line, the crowd gave her an ear-splitting standing ovation.

  • The winner must have hated her. Who won that year, in fact ?

  • @Vendimi3 It was 1984, the first year the Olympics had a women's marathon. The winner was Joan Benoit-Samuelson, of the US.

  • Sei não... talvez ela tenha feito uma cena, só pra ser eternamente lembrada! Pô, ela já era veterana nessa época, com certeza teria aguentado chegar ao fim da prova sem tanto desgaste físico... Sei lá, pra mim teve um certo teatro nisso tudo!

  • Só respondendo o amigo logo embaixo...

    O fato não é o preparo, não é a colocação... Oque estamos vendo aqui é a força de vontade! É a garra! A determinação! Morô?

  • csak gratulálni tudok.kitartásból nálam ez felér az olimpiai arany éremel.

  • Mas, na moral, ele devia estar mal preparada.

    Corredora olímpica tem que aguentar o tranco.

  • Me arrepiei rs

  • BRAAAAIIIINS

  • @boudosaved holy crap! I wanted to a marathon but after seeing this hell no.

  • bravo...

  • thats imbarrasing, a olympic marathon runner shouldnt be like that its only 26 miles

  • this should of been the real gold medal

  • 何事もあきらめちゃいけない、勝負を最後まで捨ててはいけないと­いうことを教えられました。

  • Hallo maylart, o teu video é muito bom e nos lembra de um momento muito importante peco-te porém que retire o nome SCHEISS. isto nao é nome, isso é uma palavrao em alemao (merda). A Gabrielle Andersen era da SCHWEIZ (Suica)

  • Complimenti, questa ragazza è arrivata stremata all'arrivo anche se ormai non aveva vinto, questo si che è avere spirito sportivo!

  • Parabéns, grande lição de superação!Andersen, você é demais!

  • Grande lição de superação!Parabéns você é demais!

  • determinação,,garra,,,persistê­ncia...

    belo exemplo!

  • e terrificante cosa fa quest'atleta

  • This is amazing!

  • Heroic!!!

  • hay que tener fuerzas para hazer eseo,que le paso¿'¿'¿'

  • Grande........Grande.......Gra­nde Gabrielle....Grande forza, complimenti

  • This brought me to tears. Gabrielle Andersen-Scheiss is a real champion and an inspiration.

  • too dehydrated

  • The medics could see that she was still perspiring (sweating). That meant that she still had fluids in her body and was not in any severe danger.

    As always when judging a medical condition you mustn't jump to conclusions. You must look at the indicators, not at the suprficial signs.

    For example: you're a medic, you come to an accident. You see two people, one is apparently stuck and is screaming loudly in pain. The other is sitting still. Which one gets first care? (continued)

  • Answer: the person sitting still. The screaming person is obviously breathing. You don't know if the the one sitting still is.

    Look for the indicators because they tell the real story. And that was the case here. So she was obviously exhausted, possibly suffering overheating. But(!) she was still sweating, so there *was* fluids in her. That will keep her alive and safe for the moment. So the medics followed her, watched her making sure she didn't deteriorate. *Then* they tended to her.

  • Exactly.... let's look at the indicators!!!! Severe CNS symptoms....who cares if she is still perspiring and has fluids left in her body. I hope you are not medic yourself

  • thank you show the video. I was watched it 24 years ago. I was 11 years old. I never forget the her. I have her book. she was visited to Japan. I have remember. thank you very much.

  • Well, don't forget that it happened in 1984.

    Nowadays she would be immediately stopped for sure.

  • It was after this that they passed the Scheiss rule, allowing medical attention during the event. They weren't allowed to touch her at this time; it would have DQ'd her.

  • she should not drink rum instead of water during the marathon

  • Her finishing time of 2:48:45 would have won the Gold Medal in the first five Olympic games. Simply Amazing.

  • One of the best moments of Olympic Games, ever. The real meaning of ancient OG spirit.

  • Her name is Gabriela Andersen-Schiess.

  • lol, scheiss would be too bad ;)

  • Aber echt!

    Es ist noch nicht korrigiert...ach, scheiss drauf!^^

  • triumph des willens

  • I remember watching this as it was happening. I was screaming at the screen, "Don't touch her! Don't touch her!" If the officials had helped her, she'd be disqualified. This woman held up the true Olympic spirit when her body was beyond giving up with exhaustion. She came in last, but she won something better than any medal. Goddess bless her.

  • I don't think she finished last; IIRC there were other runners after her.

    Another link I saw said she's now 62, lives in Idaho, and didn't see what the big deal was because all she wanted to do was finish the race.

  • p.s. Seeing that she's 62 was not as shocking as seeing Mary Lou Retton in the stands this time around and thinking, "Wow, she looks like she's 40!" and guess why? Because she is!

  • wow... who needs a medal if you can do this :). This is something noone can ever take away from her...

  • thats rigth my friend.........she is amazing....daamn.....the human nature...never quit...never

  • I think this is the one of the most incredible scenes in the history of the Olympic Games. This woman defined the meaning of determination, passion and sports' spirit. I was 12 years old when I first saw it, I am 35 now and I still remember it very clear. Gz Maylart for posting it.

  • Este é o símbolo do espirito olímpico.

  • No moment in sports has ever moved me as much as this. I was there with my father when I was 12 years old. The entire stadium got up and cheered this woman to the finish line. I had never seen people unite in such a way. This lady is a hero.

  • That is so true. She could have died from a heat related illness that day but she forged on, determined to finish. As one can see she couldn't even walk a staight line by the end, let alone run. In the culture of sport we tend to lionize the winners above all others but this kind of courage embodies what sport is all about. As you said, a true hero.

  • Ella si que nos dio a todos un gran mensaje
