Men's 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay Sydney Olympics 2000
Uploaded by: micebass
Video Description:
The greatest swimming race in history. Going into the 2000 Olympics the Americans had never lost the event and anchor leg swimmer Gary Hall Jr predicted before the games that the Australians would be 'smashed like guitars'. The Aussies, featuring Michael Klim and Ian Thorpe were determined to use home advantage to make sure that didn't happen. This is what happened next . . . .

| HBO replayed this race with backstory. Hall's comments were blown out of proportion as he stated in the same article that he respected the Australian people and swim team. However even as an American, I couldn't help but enjoy watching the Aussie guitar strumming after they won. They deserved to have their moment. Congrats Australia on winning one of the greatest races in any sport I have ever seen. Hard to believe that was 8 years ago! Most of us "yanks" truly appreciated the accomplishment. |
