I think this was one of the biggest surprises i have ever witnessed in Athletics. It was a bit like when Greece won the Euro championships.

Thanks for uploading. I was there that night. I was looking down and saw them look back at each other as I was watching them. At that moment I knew something was going to happen. And as soon as Mark crossed the finish line, I knew we'd won. It was brilliant! I was screaming the whole time, and jumping up and down. I bought a poster and wanted to get all 4 guys to sign it so I could frame it. If anyone can help please let me know. I would never let it out of my sight. What a night! :-)

Pure teamwork from our boys, i absolutely lost my mind watching this at the time and it's still a thrill

8:11 Ladies and gentlemen, here is the perfect change of a baton at a relay! And the next one too.

In the weeks before Athens Olympic Games, there was a lot of speculation that the traffic will be terrible, nobody could move etc. So we chose to go on vacation with my family, even though we could have tickets to any event due to my job. As days were by, we realized that the situation was pretty normal. Thus we came back and attended 4 events during the last 3 days, including the last day of Athletics. It is a day none of us will forget.

Came here after watching the new Olympic documentary on BBC and listening to Darren Campbell talk about dropping the baton in Atlanta. Can't wait to get to this part!

Individually the GB sprinters had an poor Olympics MLF and Gardener didn't make the cut for 100m final and Campbell and Devonish like wise for the 200m final so Colin Jackson and Michael Johnson as well as Crammy and Stuart Storey had plenty of reason to criticise them. But that race is shows the beauty of the sprint relay anything can happen who would have expected that American team of Crawford gold in the 200m, Gatlin gold in the 100 and bronze in the 200m and Greene bronze in the 100m to have been beaten. It was third and forth legs that did it for GB the change between Gaitlin and Coby Miller was awful Miller is almost at a standstill and the final change Aliu and Greene and looking for the baton and Devonish and MLF's change was faultless as Lewis Francis is not looking around to see where the baton is and that gave GB the lead but Greene was closing fast it was nail bitingly close.

Australia felt the same way when we beat America at 2000 Olympics 4x100m swimming final. America had won every previous Olympic 4x100m final. Very proud day for Australia🇦🇺
