  • This is a work of art.

  • I remember seeing this one with my ex-wife when it came out. We were both sat silent for a while afterwords in shock. This is still the best commercial I have seen and by the looks of what is out now it will remain the best for a long while.

  • so are the beginning and ending of a kid getting chased by like bullies or something?

  • best video in the world!!!!!

    look at 0:53 through 0:57, such good editing! :-)

  • This commercial used to break my heart as a kid; never got the chance to do sports or join any teams due to lack of money and terrible parents...i'd watch this everytime it came on and daydream about how much different i'd be as a person if I was included.

  • @GistoftheFist It's not too late. Just do it.

  • ballet

  • some of the best editing ive ever seen in a commercial. how all the sports connect as one is beautiful

  • That's awesome! (:

  • best commercial ever!!

  • Makes me want to jump up and start running for no particular reason. Powerful.

    Nike used to really touch the soul with their commercials.

  • This commercial still gives me chills.

  • What they dont show at the end is that the kid was running inside a Mc Donalds....

  • I like it that they didn't have to use slow-motion here, as they so often do. Brilliant.

  • downloaded the music (J. elias) from Itunes....have it on my ipod for when i am running. When i get tired and start to struggle, i listen to this and...keep on moving....

  • Nike showing that as long as we are willing to move life WILL come full circle...

  • Yeah, this was aired during the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City.

  • Who is this black triathlete?

  • damn i remeber the first time i saw this commercial years ago and it still makes me feel the same way today i love it. please any 1 know what music piece is used in this commercial?

  • @C815richard It is called "Move" by Johathan Elias

    youtube.com/watch?v=DNJXxxzTFw­g

  • @C815richard The song is called "Move" by Jonathan Elias

  • This is by far the best Nike commercial ever made.

  • Love this commercial!

  • At 0:30, this man is Mike bibby no ? :O

  • what is name of song please ? :)

  • @gizzly34080 It's titled 'Move' by Jonathan Elias, from his Album American River.

  • I FOUND IT!!! Finally, yayy :)

  • 0:56 cutest thing ever.

  • Inspira ¡¡¡ me encantaaa

  • This video with the song in the background reminds me how beautiful each sport is. Makes you feel you are a part of this video. Best Nike Ad ever!

  • I had to roll back the video after seeing that bridge. Sure enough, that's definitely the Foresthill bridge.

    Of course, this being modern America, you can't actually parachute off that bridge without getting arrested. They'll also confiscate your equipment, and the news will report you as a jackass. People have done it (not me).

    Unless you're filming a TV commercial, then it's okay apparently. Cool commercial, but people don't really have that much freedom anymore.

  • One of my all-time favorite commercials. The start of the Olympics tonight reminded me of seeing it during the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic games and how much I loved it. Thank you for posting.

  • im a grown man and i just cried.

  • This is undoubtedly my favorite commercial of all time.

  • Does anyone know where you can find a downloadable audio file for this sonG>!>!>!>

  • I have it as an MP3. The name of it is "Move" and it's by Jonathan Elias. You may be able to find it on some sharing sites (limewire, etc.) but if you can't then send me a private message with your email and I'll send it to you.

  • The most beautiful sports montage I have ever seen by far 0_o

  • i finally got the meaning of " Just Do It"

  • One of the best Nike comericials ever very moving

  • I've posted the full original song by Jonathan Elias.

  • @theonegift thanks for posting the song mate. beautiful song.

  • cool beans. :D

  • Was that first guy (the one who was running) Patrick Chan? Looks like it, but the video quality, even in HD, was really blurry.

  • my favorite commercial EVER... it kinda has a sad tone to it...

  • i think they should have a figure skating commercial!!

  • noooooooo

  • YES!!! figure skaters work just as hard! when we prefom we barley breath because it hurts or makes us unconsentrated so when were done we are breathing really hard & we have to jump really high & have to have endurance & figure skaters have a lot of muscule its just all in thier legs so u dont really notice it!

  • amazing ad.  thank u nike.

  • Back 8 or 9 years ago, during some big meeting, when the top advertising executives at NIKE first saw this finished commercial, I wonder how happy and excited they were...

  • ur gay who aksed when u saw it ass hole hahahahaha jk u cool

  • There was a nike commercial released right before this one in 2002. Does anyone know the name or have a link to it?

  • Best commercial ever made.

  • Not a single runner in this vid had good form besides the tri guys. And thats saying ALOT!

  • 2016 back in the states chicago baby dare to dream

  • yeah! go chicago 2016! there is nothing better than a good sport montage =)

  • btw which year was this commercial?2000 Sydney Olympics?

  • No, this commercial was for the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics

  • was it that long ago already? Yikes!

  • @faxxanadu lol for real!

  • yeah, everybody seems to remember it from the 2002 Olympics, but it also played at the 2000 Sydney Olympics as well.

  • love it.Sports life is wonderful.

  • What a beautiful montage! The images are edited together perfectly with great transitions and a tremendous harmonious song linking it all. Without a doubt the best sports commercial!!

  • I love this ad, almost as much as the one with the marathon runner running past building that show different sports heroes with soft music in the background (if anyone knows the title, please message me!). This is a great ad, I had it on tape and can't find it now... thanks for posting!

  • i lov the triathlon bit in the end!

  • se t ace mu largo pro sta muy bn

  • Nike always seems to make the best commercials.

  • its really a great commercial .

  • This is simply the best commercial that was ever created.

  • ke hermosa musica!!!

  • Advertising as art. Wonderful.

  • one of the best nike ads

  • without a doubt one of the best olympic ads ever aired/created. period.

    i wish the musician who composed the music for this had a bigger canon of work - i remember that after this aired i tried to look up some of his other stuff, but wasn't that pleased.

  • i would say, their new nike courage one is better, very inspirational

  • Just do it

  • what kind of music is this?

  • Nike does not use sweath shops. Look it up. Not every corporation is evil. I'm guessing you make your own clothes and food and just stumbled on this video by accident.

  • actually nike did use sweat shops a few years ago but i'm not too sure about it now. watch this mini documentary called "behind the swoosh." i love nike and i have so many nike clothes but now i feel bad for wearing nike.

  • They did remove the sweatshops. You can wear your nikes guilt-free.

  • Children dont work in sweat shops because they are made to its because they need the money for food. They are like american kids where playing games is an everyday thing. You work or you starve. America went through a phase in its development where our children worked but after a time we built industry and children didnt have to work. Buy nike and where them with pride, you're feeding children.

  • yeah there's a good portion of fucked-over Americans who didn't learn what their parents did growing up. but as long as they're happy.

    I still have hope for our generation, we're too vast to generalize.

  • exactly, american made =]

  • theres always a smartass who needs to comment

  • this is perfect. the music, the images, everything. It's just beautiful. Say what you want about nike, but they sure know how to make a good commercial

  • again a great nike comercial!

    LOVE IT !

    just do it

  • so... Beautiful *^_^* i love it

  • Simply the greatest ad ever made. Beautiful.

  • Remember seeing it when it first aired and I am still blown away by how well done this commercial is.

    The best I've ever seen. No question about it.

  • I second that. I haven't seen this video in a couple years and I still get the chills.

  • Here Here. I remember seeing this when it aired and loved the hell out of it. Damn glad to see it on here.

  • i love this commercial so much. makes you want to just go outside and run.

  • the most beautiful commercial ever. it never gets old.

  • asd, if you had half a brain you would still have half a brain.

  • Actually, it's a Nike commercial, not an Olympics commercial.

  • This is a work of art. Simply beautiful.

  • YOU'RE a towel

  • Best commercial evah!

  • Thank you so much for posting this commercial. I used to love watching it during the Olympics. It is utter beauty and how often can you say that about a TV ad? Back when it was first aired during the Olympics, I was spellbound whenever I saw the commercial. I have to say that it is just as magical seeing it years later. Thanks again!!!

  • This is one of my all-time favorite commercials. If you like this, search for "nike gravity" which is out of this same feel. If only more of these were made.

  • I have driven and walked across the bridge that the guy parachutes from. It is the Auburn-Foresthill Bridge, and is located in Auburn, California, which is just northeast of Sacramento.

  • This is amazing, the only commercial I think I've ever watched just to enjoy it.

  • It is amazing isn't it. Simply beautiful--a testament to humanity's eternal love of sport.

  • this commercial almost brings tears to my eyes

  • That flow is how it feels to do what you love (to me).

    First time I've seen this...

    Thanks so much!

  • Yeah this is pretty much one of my favorite commercials of all time, with some of my favorite commercial music of all time (other fav goes out to J Ralph for "One Million Miles Away" on the Volkswagen ad). And this was directed by one of Ridley Scott's kids no less. Go Figure.

  • yeah anyone?

  • I've been looking for this commercial for years! I remember it because of the music... It's simply amazing

  • Hola, soy de Argentina .... me encanta esa propaganda, es muy inspiradora

  • This commercial is simply amazing and also it's very inspiring to get out and "just do it!" This is my # 1 commercial of all time and it was done very well, I am just confused to see how Nike did so well on the project but never made anymore like it.?.?.?

  • When I first saw this commercial on TV I think I almost welled up. The graphic matching is amazing.

  • it's by Jonathan Elias if i can remember but i forgot what the title is called try "move"

  • any one know what the name of this song is?
