Calvin Smith who ran the 3rd leg could have beaten Lewis in the final, if he wasn't injured in the olympic qualifiers.

As much as I hate Carl Lewis, that was probably one of the most impressive relay runs I've ever seen in my life. I can't even measure how large that lead was by the time Lewis was at the line.

So a white dude anchored the men's 4x100 m relay team then in 1936.
Those were the days ,but times have since changed for a long time now.
Great footage though .

I loved this programme when it was first shown on BBC 20 years ago. Thanks for posting!
