The first American games wasn't supposed to be held in St. Louis, but in Chicago. There was a lot of back and forth, and in the end it ended up being in St. Louis at the same time as the World Fair. It was a disaster on so many levels, especially the swimming and the marathon.

During the Olympic winter games in 1972 in Sapporo, Japan, Austrian Skier Karl Schranz was disquallified from the games just briefly after he had arrived in Japan, on the allegation of being a secret professional sportsman. The IOC president presented a photography of Schranz wearing a soccer-outfit with a coffee-advert on its back, which as far as we know, Schranz wore for a charity game. So he returned to Austria quite bitter, yet in Vienna he was greeted by a crowd of nearly 100 000 people, celebrating him as if he had won the games single-handedly.

13:20 actually, the IOC awarded the hosting rights for the 1904 Games to Chicago, with the World's Fair in St Louis originally scheduled for 1903, in honor of the centennial of the Louisiana Purchase. However, the organization of the St Louis World's Fair ended up pushing it back a year to 1904, and, not wanting the Olympics to be completely eclipsed by the World's Fair, the two are merged into a single mega event, similar to the 1900 Paris games.

Also, Brisbane, Australia will (Maybe) host the 2032 games. Fun fact, if you go visit Stadium Australia (The Stadium built for 2000) now known today as Acore Stadium, in Olympic Park, Sydney, you can actually go see the Coldron used. It's in Cathy Freeman Park, outside the Stadium.

Sadly, Canada still has the distinction of being the only host country to not win a gold medal at their own games, twice the other time being the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. It wasn't until the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver that we finally won gold. Also, I have a very interesting piece of Olympic memorabilia, a Toronto 1996 pin, which was produced for our bid. I got it when I went to the Olympic announcement party at Skydome (now Roger's Centre) here in Toronto in '91, where we lost to Atlanta. I recall Mayor Hazel McCallion (mayor of Mississauga, Ontario, right next to Toronto) tell a reporter that she believes that the games will be known as "The Coca-Cola Games". (Incidentally, I was also at the breakfast party outside of Union Station here in Toronto when we lost to Beijing.)

“Rio hosts the first games in Latin America” I forgot Mexico speaks English

Seeing recent history in the context of all/general history is interesting, and helps perceive it with having the same impact/value/weight as “older” history and helps perceive it as not just singular/isolated events but as interconnected events happening within previous and current contexts.

Smart guy, Smart videos.

Small correction: Fannie Blankers-Coen is pronouncer as "Koon" not co-en

As recently as 1859, 70, 75 and 89, the Olympic Games were held directly in Greece.

This is very interesting

At the very end of the video, the globe slowly spins, and the video ends with Australia at the left edge. This is a coincidence -- the 2032 Summer Olympics are scheduled to take place in Brisbane. Nice little Easter Egg for those of us into the Olympics!

Then my friend from Australia said lets go to Paris🇫🇷 for a week in August 24.

You might want to recheck your facts regarding the first time gold medals were awarded. Wikipedia has medal tables showing Gold / Silver / Bronze medals awarded from the 1896 (first) games onwards.
