  • David Perry is the narrator.

  • I should also point out that Lewis' primary accomplishment was as a jumper. He was Olympic champion 4 times and was undefeated for 10 years in the long jump and has posted the majority of the jumps over 28 and a half feet. The fact that in '88 he was found to have the same banned stimulants in his system as over a hundred other athletes doesn't explain how he dominated all of them for a decade and a half.

  • I love these Official Olympic Films, the narrator's voice just keeps you captivated to what's going on at all times!

  • @Trulyloyale If you made any sense, you might have a compelling argument. Instead, you come off as a blithering idiot.

  • Carl Lewis the best to ever do it!!! Period. A monster in his prime...Yes!!!!

  • carl lewis ?? XDDD only a ridiculous clown, one of the many druged cheaters inside

    the US track & field team who robbed & stole for decades tens of olympic medals !!ù

    Doped cheater at LA 84, superdoped lieing cheater in Seoul 88 ....!!!

    Carl who ......???!!!

    I really laugh to tears when some 1way blind fans or a clueless dumbs calls this

    doped comedian " the best of all times " ...XDDDD!!

    In the 200m , f.i., he was not even 50% of such an outclass & CLEAN champ as Mennea !!!

  • U-S-A! U-S-A!

  • LOL thomas jefferson

  • As effortless and beautiful as Lewis was as a sprinter, I don't think any Lewis would get close to Bolt. Bolt is from another planet. But, for pure aesthethics, Lewis was

    the best of all time.

  • too bad mennea was bumped and lost his balance coming off the turn...... he could have got a medal

  • Carl Lewis was the best of all time

  • bolt

  • Ben johnson was a cheater,a doper.Lewis took what everyone else used till 1990 or so,you can't say he was doped at that time.

    Carl Lewis was the best long jumper ever and a 200m natural talent.With nowadays tracks,shoes and trainings,he'd be a challenge for Usain Bolt too.
