  • and this video is awesome... but it should also have the clip, "Secretariat is widening now! He is moving like a tremendous machine!"

  • i like all of you :)

  • The instrumental at the beginning is from the soundtrack of the movie "Hoffa".

  • what a shot by Yzerman!

  • Makes Me Proud To Be An American

  • @talcaraz100 What?? American like "People from America" I hope!

    Just for you (and your memory)...Gretzky, Lemieux, Roy, Flutie and many other are NOT from United States. I hope your "proud to be american" include all America!

  • Muhammad Ali bad man

    

  • Omg, the instrumental for this song is used in eminems song

  • not enough soccer...hello the best sport

  • which game on 4:04?

  • @24KoBr Stanford vs. Cal 1982, "the play"

  • the two dunks at 5:02 are insane

  • @BeigeSabbath...That Yankee would be Roger Maris!

  • anyone know the name of the first instrumental song....shazam let me down..

  • @DRWingsfan13 I'm pretty sure it's from a movie I think someone mentions it in previous comments on this video

  • ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

    SHUT UP  AND ENJOY THE VIDEO!

    ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

  • greatest video ever !

    

  • This is the best video ever done!! only 116444 viws!!!! Common!!!! Justin Bieber has 500.000.000!!! The people is realy stupid

  • Shoulda had when Smokin Joe Frazier shut Cassius Clay big mouth and knocked him on his ass.

  • :10 TY COBB!!!

    

  • 5:52 best dual fist pump ever. greatest vid ever!

  • My favourite would be when ali knocked george foreman out when george was in his prime.

  • Epic. Fucking epic. 0:53 lets go leafs

  • How is Lou Gehrig in the past 25 years, lol?

  • @enricoshyster Lou Gehrig played more recently then some of the clips shown.

  • Awesome video, but what really pisses me off, its that its supposed to show greatest sports moments in history, but they only show stuff that happens in the U.s, so there is not one vid of soccer, no maradona or pele, only soccer part was 1/2 second of U.s in women's world cup. That's one of the reasons.I hate the u.s, they think that the only good stuff happens here, but never in the foreign world.

  • @ASG89V2 AMERICA!!

  • @CSJ09 what about the continent of America?

  • @ASG89V2 This is an ESPN(US) video, 90% of its audience is American therefore all of the video is going to cater to what Americans watch. Americans DONT watch soccer. Simple. And cut the BS! if, for example, the BBC were to make a similar video it wouldnt have an OUNCE of basketball, baseball or American football in it. Itd be loaded with Soccer, Rugby and cricket. if youre going to argue for soccer you might as well argue for every other sport in the world.

  • Finally a video that can bring all sports fans together instead of arguing

  • WARNING THIS VIDEO CAUSES EXTREME GOOSEBUMPS

  • Interesting that, of all things, it ends with that savage shot of Ali.

  • Oops my second time watching it I noticed a clip that could be longer

  • I like but seriously no Lance Armstrong. He only battled cancer and won 7 Tour de Frances in a row

  • @sportsrdan5 he's there at 3:31

  • @sportsrdan5 lance is def in not for long thow deserves longer than half a sec at 3:31

  • Gotta respect the love given to Walter Payton.

  • what's the song

  • this is the most inspirational video I have ever seen

  • this is what i live for.

  • Muhammad Ali for prez

  • If that doesn't fire you up...nothing will.

  • Emotional

  • Ridiculously entertaining...sad to see the clip of Monica Seles getting stabbed though at 4:34 ...Gretzky and Jordan the faces of hockey and basketball for me at least.

  • whats that for a match at 4:05?

  • @ebigollo0311 That was a game winning play, the other teams band was on the field already thinking game was over but california kept throwing the ball around and took kickoff return all the way(which is difficult to do) for game winning touchdown

  • Just amazing

  • The best video i have ever scene on youtube

  • @jovanb101 *seen (pet peeve)

  • 1:14 to 1:17 WHY WHY!!!!! god who doesn't remember that.

  • @euskaldanak what is it?

  • @lakingsiv Its Nancy Kerrigan 1994 WInter Olympics, she got clubbed in the right knee with a metal baton by Shane Stant. It was a planned assault by Tanya Hardings ex husband Jeff Gillooly he was accompanied by friend Shawn Eckardt. Recently her dad and brother Mark got into a struggle leading to her fathers death at 70. Mark was charged with manslaughter with the incident. Sad.

  • Does anyone know who the hockey player is at 3:15?

  • @robby391 He has a Bruins Jersey so Bobby Orr maybe.

  • @thekiller678 Actually, a Brantford jersey. My hometown. It's Wayne Gretzky.

  • @DoranNu Huh. Never would have known that unless you told me :p

  • @robby391 That is Gretzky when he was young ... probably around 12-14 I'd say.

  • @trpirate 11 actually lol

  • haha i love it when i see stuff that i remember watching live.

  • i wish they could update this to 2010

  • Great video but needs Buckner..."BEHIND THE BAG!"

  • @thunderpantherx now you know thats not going to happen. ESPN loves the Red Sox...they'd never show that. haha.

  • @bbri1991 actually I watched the video again and I noticed that they slipped it in at 3:55 ...just a really short clip and doesn't have the announcer but you're absolutely correct, espn LOVES the red sox lol

  • @bbri1991 "Behind the bag" is in the video.

  • @thekiller678 yea i posted that before i saw it. definitely deserves more than a less than a second snippet tho. that was one of the great moments in sports (unless your from boston....which i'm not, haha)

  • @thunderpantherx It's in the video. Look harder

  • @thekiller678 Yeah I know, check my reply to bbri1991 a day ago. And it would be so much better if they included the commentary b/c that's the best part. Just sayin'.

  • whos that at 0:47 ?

  • @eddybagwell johnny unitas.

  • @bbri1991

    thanks :)

  • Eines der besten Sportvideos das ich bisher gesehen habe, wahrscheinlich sogar das Beste.

    Gute Arbeit---good job, great video

  • Ended off with Ali - perfect.

  • the greatest collection of sport video

    s PERIOD!!

  • So,So,So bias.What the Red Sox beating the Smakees four straight to advance and eventually winning the world series don't count?

  • This is really beautiful, the 12 people that disliked this..dont know what life is

  • I still get chills watching this video.... I used to watch it before ever college hockey game we played..... good times

  • In case anyone is wondering the first song is:

    "Trucker Salute" by David Newman Track 4 on the Hoffa Movie Soundtrack

  • The video description is wrong. This video ESPN did for the greatest moments of the entire 20th century, not just the past 25 years.

  • wat song is it

  • @yugars22 "Dream On" by Aerosmith

  • I love this video but they the last photo should be the punch that Joe Frazier knocked Ali on his ass, and won their first fight when both were at their peak. Down goes Cassius Clay, Down goes Cassius Clay

  • It's LEGENDARY !!! Beautiful video !!! It makes me cry 

  • i think ive watched this 6 times over a 1 month period amzing vid

  • who's the yankees guy at 2:23?

  • @BeigeSabbath roger maris

  • I'm pretty sure it's Ted Williams.

  • I'm pretty sure it's Ted Williams.

  • I'm pretty sure it's Ted Williams.

  • @BeigeSabbath roger maris

  • no football? damn.

  • @cellm823 Yeah, it was ESPN so i guess they stuck with the american theme for this.

  • joe carter 3 run shot to win the series best moment ever

  • Kick ass video

  • the editing of this video is awesome. this video, however, nowhere near represents the greatest moments of sports. i especially like the two-second ovation to lance armstrong.

  • YEAAAA BOI Muhammed Ali

  • who was da guy with da glasses at 0:43?

  • I believe it's John Wooden college basketball coach?

  • gives me chills watching this

  • The song is Dream On by Aerosmith, awesome tune!

  • Who is the person holding up the sign with 100 written on it?

  • @FullM3talGamer Chamberlain,basketball legend

  • @FullM3talGamer Wilt Chamberlain

  • @FullM3talGamer wilt chamberlain...

  • @FullM3talGamer hey! It's your sister :P I barely saw your comment on this video all late. That guy is Wilt Chamberlain, a basketball player. He scored 100 points in a game, which is a record. 2nd place is 81 points.

  • Lol what's with all these shit yank sports. LETS SEE SOME PROPER SPORTS BRING ON FOOTBALL AND RUGBY!?!??!

  • I watch this at least once a month.

  • i get goosebumps from this video every time

  • they told me the jews have hannah storms nipples peircing out sirs...those antisemite bastards!...kevin howard....

  • whats the song at the beginning?

  • @lordofwrath88: I forget the name of the song, but it's on the soundtrack to the movie "Hoffa" starring Jack Nicholson. Great song! This video inspired me to use it for the slideshow track for the slideshow at my wedding reception.

  • Has someone got some info for the sidestepping at 2:55? What game? Any longer clip?

    As a rugby player... That's got to create such an damn great feeling... =D

  • that's barry sanders bro..just search barry sander's highlights..you'll see more of those crazy feet..he basically had to do that every damn time to get his team ahead..what a crap team for such a great player..detroit lions by the way..boooo

  • That's Detroit Lion's running back Barry Sanders against the Chicago Bears. Guessing this is early '90s(s)

    A little reminiscent of Barry John?

  • @sm910dif That's Barry Sanders in an American Football game. He's one of the greatest running backs to ever play the game.

  • this looks like more than 25 years ago

  • It's coach Eddie Robinson crying at 3:44

  • at 3:44 the guy crying is willy mays

  • Could have included Danny Hodge, and Dan Gable. Legends in wrestling.

  • Who's da guy cryin at 3:44?

  • At 3:22 thats Bob Knight throwing a chair during a technical foul, because he thought the call was bullshit, greatest college basketball coach ever

  • epic 4:47

  • I would add Bruce Lee to this list.

  • What's the thing at 3:22 ? :)

  • Bob Knight chunking a chair.

  • Great footage.

    Chris Webber, still priceless.

  • Brilliant. Gave me chills.

  • What's the thing at 3:14?

  • a very young Wayne Gretzky, probably only 8 or 9 (i do not know for sure) only in his pee-wee league.....already showing the natural talent of a 15yr. old.......

  • Gretzky or Lemieux???

  • @SkeffingtonP -- Gretzky.

  • good point jackgotlucky

  • it's all human, but one.........Secretariat.

  • If anyone in the Markham 4 pitch league is watching this...you are going to get hammered by my fist this weekend. RIP assholes.

  • Great video.. back when sports were better... don't u think?

  • I agree. Sports was better before when it wasnt about all the fame.

  • @GiveADogABohnel5 I think so!

  • Hell yeah, 3:34, the Big Unit and the M's beating the Yankees in the 1995 playoffs. We havent won any World Series Games here, so that was our biggest moment by far.
