Untouchable - Jahangir Khan's Incomprehensible Win Streak
Ойын-сауық
In the fourth installment of Kai Farenholtz's 'Untouchable', we grace upon possibly one of sports all-time greatest achievements... Jahangir Khan's 555 match win streak.
It's honestly a crazy number to comprehend, but throughout the 1980's, Khan was putting on a massacre unknown to millions of people around the globe... imagine going 5-seasons without dropping a single game... pure, utter, dominance.

It will never be broken.
Astonishing. I have played for 25yrs and at top of city club level and i think 10 or 12 matches was as long a streak as i could tie together although i work during the day and can't train i'm sure makes a big difference. But still a amazing feat.
He will always be a squash legend. Always ❤
The news of Khan winning another title was an obvious, expected news without ever a doubt till he retired
Correction: Jahangir Khan won a still-record 10 British Opens and 6 World Championships, besides a number of other prestigious tournaments. A true legend of all time in sports... 👏🏻

It's not a correction. The video just reported what he won within the five-year period when he didn't lose a single match. As you point out, he won plenty outside of that streak.
Dil dil Pakistan 🇵🇰
What about Heather McKay from Australia who went nearly 20 years unbeaten and won 16 British Open titles in a row, including the 1968 final where she did not drop a point!

@@Squash101-qh7zl Yes, sure, but I was curious if her match string was as long as Jahangir’s. Maybe not if women were playing many fewer matches back then.

During that time, squash was less competitve because far fewer people played squash.

@@ricwhkIt depends upon the country. A lot less play in Australia and England than used to. It used to be super popular in Canada. It’s taken off in Egypt. In the U.S. I’m pretty sure the number of squash courts has gone down in the last few decades, although I didn’t check it. There weren’t as many pros on the tour back then is the really important factor.
Heather McKay?
pride of Pakistan.
