Montreal 1976 Official Olympic Film - Part 5 | Olympic History 

I don't have to imagine I was there.Drove up from NJ thru ny state and into Canada.Trip of a life time.

@@larciabella Great memories of the 1976 Summer: Montreal Olympics with Maynard Ferguson, plus radios blaring McCartney and Wings's Silly Love Songs, Elton John's Don't go Breaking my Heart, and ABBA's Dancing Queen. :)

@@jorgeponce5512 omg yes totally! I just got chills reading your response.I just graduated HS that year.Banner year .tall ships in NYC harbor.was in a Rock band ....going for my dreams!Yes Wings Silly Love songs, Bee-Gee's Nights on Broadway.

@@larciabella How could I have forgotten Bee Gees!

I know right Saturday Night Feevah!Yet I still love the early Bee-Gees....I Started a Joke, Massachusetts ,First of May.

Joey Suggs not always. I remember when it was a powder and you just mixed it up.

They were in glass bottles up until the 90's

@@Montrosesister12 From the very beginning it was sold in glass bottles. Stokely was the manufacturer. Powder was also available.

And when it was the original formula made by Stokely.

Richard Garneau was a one of our neighbours where I grew up.

East Europeans were semipros. They still worked for money somewhere but most of the time spent in the sports camps.

So you enjoyed watching amateurs and mediocre performances in what is supposed to be the best sporting event in the world?

hababam

What is the name?? The song is beautiful, but Shazam don’t find it

Kidney McSecrets speak to the Czech Republic and ask them if they blame the Americans for voting not to go.

@@Montrosesister12 they (Czech and some Republicans in the US) want to boycott China 2022 now. You know this only hurts the Athletes. We’ll just have China boycotting 2028.

He's just sold his soul/and everything/ for...devil,or a better one????Nobody knows it. Sad story.He was one of my favorite sportsman that time,but not anymore.

Go, Caitlin!

Ok, Boomer...

Correction - Caitlyn Jenner/She/Her Please use the proper pronouns

Now this champion is nothing to me..

smoking hot woman

Pero los Norte Americanos se dopaban y se dopan aun mas, la estrategia de ellos es siempre acusar a otros para desviar la atencion a otro lado. Y no me voy a poner aqui a detallar los casos de doping mas vergonzosos que han tenido lugar, muy documentados por cierto

epo was not invented yet

HGH and steroids don't aid in aerobic events.

HGH and steroids are useless for marathon. Only things which can help are asthma drugs and blood transfusion.

And their training was just more professional too...it's always easy to say they were all doped. Acually when any east german was doped they were all doped that time. All athlets that time were doped.

@@leifkunzel6701 Not Frank Shorter.

Absolutely! I have been looking for this particular song for ages!! It perfectly encapsulates the strength, the will and the pain that those runners were experiencing while completing the marathon.

Andre Gagnon

@@TheSomsom3 why not shazam

😂😂😂😂

IsoLAteD W you are the most funny thing because it’s been paid off since 2006 making it 30 yrs after the fact .

NICE

What debate

I know great quality for the time

It's called the Marathon Theme.

Darude- Sandstorm

@@angrymidgetwithayoyo i cant seem to find the full song itself anyone on youtube

@@DGarcia879 André Gagnon was an extraordinary composer. He was hired by the National Film Board of Canada to provide a soundtrack to that movie. Unfortunately, he had to sell his copyright to the NFB, a federal body that never contemplated the possibility of releasing that soundtrack properly on its own. I contacted Mr. Gagnon's agent many times and all the answers I got was that this soundtrack was government property. So you will never hear it anywhere, but in this movie made for the Montreal Olympics. Such a shame..

@@TheSomsom3 such an epic song. super sad we can hear the song itself on youtube

Yes

He finished 18th in those olympics

Go Caitlyn!

Hah! I know it.Crazy.

He was the peak of manliness in 1976

Canada is the only country not to win a gold medal while hosting the Olympics. This happened both in 1976 and 1988. With Whistler in 2010, lots of new sports were introduced, which Canada is good at.

This was the first Olympics in a long time where the Aussies failed to win a single swimming gold.

i don't think EPO was around yet
