It's very appropriate that he was Finnish, since the finish line was the only place his rivals saw him.

He's a inspiration. He shows that there are no limits to what humans are capable of.

@Vanhapjuuma 5 месяцев назад

Well, there are some limits. Quite a few, actually. But Nurmi was an outstanding athlete.

By far the greatest distance runner of all time. Maybe even the greatest track and field athlete of all time.

@111Matu 3 года назад

He did win 9 gold medals (plus 3 silvers), but spread across three Olympic Games: 1920, 1924 and 1928. Also, he was predominantly a long distance runner, although indeed one of his gold medals is from 1500 meters, which is considered a middle distance.

@soturiks 3 года назад

The finest moment of the Swedish to get Nurmi banned from the Olympics. Nurmi was in his prime and had set multiple world records that year and would have without an injury won the marathon. Dude was a running machine.

Great video! Years ago, I read somewhere that Nurmi's resting pulse rate was 24. Emil Zatopek was a pallbearer at Nurmi's funeral.

And also we need the XC race back. All the XC races back then we're poorly thrown together. I think it should be reinstated.

@omnivorous65 Месяц назад

It would be interesting to understand if he had some inherent genetic advantage that affected his endurance or was it that he was ahead of his time in his approach to training.

@susannakristiina3514 5 лет назад

Sometimes it feels like athletes were more stronger or better then. Is there a method to calculate this? Was the air cleaner then, which would explain better lungs, food simpler (clean), people at all tough. Although the times were, of course, mathematically worse. In the Paris 1924 Olympic Games, Ville Ritola won four gold medals and two silver medals. He ran a long distance run for eight consecutive days for those six medals to win. Including qualifications 🏃‍♂️🥇🥇🥇🥇🥈🥈🏃

@MrKLindholm 5 лет назад

Nope Susanna, it Still is practise ,practise and practise… Nurmi is still human.

@MrSupernova111 4 года назад

I think this video, more than anything, proves the inconsistency training between athletes. With no internet and during a time when traveling beyond your own country was reserved for the wealthy or once in a lifetime experience there was probably little consistency in training around the world. Not to mention that sports performance science was probably in its infancy and its likely that it took decades or longer to understand what made some athletes better than others.

@user-kz9od2po1x 4 года назад

It’s the opposite ! The athletes are faster now then before ! You can compare it to Hicham the Moroccan athlete who made the same history as Paavo did by winning the 1500m and the 5000m at one Olympic event but in better timing!

@helpinghal 6 лет назад

Robert Smith These "Olympics On The Record" videos almost always contain factual inaccuracies. Nurmi won 9 total gold medals in his Olympic career (not 10 like the narrator says at the end) but won only 5 at the 1924 games. Paavo's nine gold medals tie him for second all-time with Larissa Latynina, Mark Spitz and Carl Lewis.
