The biggest stadium in DR was named Felix Sanchez, in honor of this hero. I watch this video, and I still cry.

@Keniaaguero784 Год назад

Cómo cubana viví esa carrera y lloré como niña pequeña y en 2012 cuando él pierde a su abuelita en preliminares fue un duro golpe y yo estaba segura él el iba a ganar llevaba todo ese sentimiento por dentro que le dio fuerzas para dedicarle a su abuelita ese triunfo 🏆 GRANDE FELIX SÁNCHEZ

Prohibido olvidar al Super Sanchez! Prohibido olvidar al Super Sanchez! How much respect and pride the Super Felix deserves. He was able to be part of the most famous athletics team in the world and decided to be on his little land team, where his roots are coming from, the Dominican Republic. That must be remembered and seen forever. Thanks Super Felix. You can easily see his tears almost out again during his whole documentary. We will be proud of you forever! (Estaremos orgullosos de ti siempre)

@cedrictrent92 7 лет назад

Felix Sanchez is a hero and an inspiration to us all. I remember watching him in Athens in '04 when he won gold. I didn't follow athletics closely at the time and didn't know who he was. 8 years later in London after losing an interest in athletics having enjoyed it for a few years, I watched Sanchez again and remembered him from Greece. It was amazing to see the same guy win the 400 hurdles 8 years apart. That kind of thing doesn't normally happen in the mankiller event. It was an astonishing feat. Good for him.

@davidrey28 6 лет назад

Watching his winning in 2012 still gives me chills, can't help it

One of my favourite athletes - I was eating some delicious Dominican Republic chocolate and it made me want to relive this - very inspiring, what track & field is all about. I also remember Felix winning a 400mH race AND a 400m flat on the same night at what would now be called a Diamond League meeting!!! Thank you for sharing your story Felix!

Gracias a Félix Sánchez se abrió una puerta demasiado grande en el atletismo en República Dominicana, gracias a él muchísimos atletas han surgido con el deseo de llegar a ser un grande como el. Félix Sánchez marco un antes y un después en el deporte de República Dominicana, luego de eso comenzó apoyarse un poco más el atletismo, ya que el deporte en el que más los jóvenes pensaba solo era baseball. Gracias Félix Sánchez siempre serás grande para los dominicanos ! ❤

I love your channel because I love sport and the values that the practice of any type of sport represents. All the stories are unique and wonderful. I am Ecuadorian and we also have a very valuable athlete: Jefferson Perez. It would be great if one day you can make a video about his story. It is as exciting and moving as all that are written in the Olympics.
