Track & Field's UNBEATABLE Athletes! || TOP WINNING STREAKS EVER! 

In high school I was undefeated for a few years at the one mile. It was an amazing feeling. I never appreciated it enough when I was young. Now I’m in my 30s and am constantly grinding to get fast again.

That scissor high jump technique makes my hips hurt. What an amazing athlete she is. Humans are so unique sometimes .. it’s awesome.

She scissored 1.91 metres?! I wonder how high she would get with more modern technique, that is insanity.

I raced against the Kindergarten track team a few hundred times and have won every single time, so the answer is me 😎

I've never won a silver or bronze medal so thats impressive! but I've never won anything so I guess not

Your videos keep getting more interesting

I saw Moses run at the first ever World athletic championships in Helsinki 1983. He was a Real Legend at the time. At the same games, there was a surprise winner in pole vault, a certain Sergei Bubka.

Edwin Moses was the best athlet ever in all times! The king 👑👑👑👑👑

Said Aouita deserves at least an honorable mention, since july 1985 to july 1987 he won more than 40 consecutive races in 8 different distances. And since 1985 to 1990 he loses only 5 races and also in that period he broke the world recorld of 5 different distances (1500 / 2000 / 3000 / 2 miles / 5000)

I love your vids bro, keep up the good work!

Great list -including the honourable mentions!

Great presentation; I always enjoy seeing a new offering from you, and this one is top tier! Iolanda Balas was an amazing athlete and shows us that it is not always rock and paper... scissors are winners! (Apology for my poor pun) It was fantastic to see all these superb athletes in one video. I was fortunate to be at my peak when Edwin Moses was making 400m Hurdle history. I always admired him and his work ethic during those years. He inspired many others to improve in their respective events. Thanks again, TRP!

Phenomenal compilation. Bravo! 👏

I am so old I remember watching '91 Lewis Powell live with my dad

It's crazy how parry obrian came up with a totally different way of throwing the shot put ...same as the fosbury flop...these people revolutionised their chosen sport ...it's truly amazing ...they went beyond competing...it always made me think " how come no one else thought of that " ...that's what pioneer's do

Awesome video! I learned so much, love your videos!

Awesome athletes (all of them) - you found some great instrumentals to accompany them too.

Great video. Very thorough and entertaining

i really like your videos. It's always quality content you make. thank you and please keep up the good work :).

Thanks for the content !

This is Goosebumps stuff !!! Love it !!!

So interesting. Thanks for sharing!

Great work.

A firm thumbs up and hearty well done to TRP. This piece was informative seeing familiar performances and becoming acquainted with previously unknown athletic bars set. Even honorable mentions contributed to the excellent content. This is a question, and by no means a criticism, but I was curious if U.S. discus thrower Al Oerter was someone who could've made your video. Four consecutive gold medal podium appearances from the Melbourne Games in 1956 to the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City is a very impressive standard, and only equalled by Lewis' long jump achievements 28 years later.

That is a VERY impressive list of honorable mentions!

Great Video!

Good stuff. Very informative video with a also good matching sound track. Needed a bit final credits though. It also kept it decent -> for those individuals that had a more important role in life to perform; than being a professional athlete.

I really enjoy your new intro

I was watching Carl Lewis compete in the long jump latter in his career. He had scratched on his previous 2 tries and was behind on distance when he threw down a 28' 5 1/2" jump. When the camera zoomed in on his launch you could see his foot was a good 12" behind the line.

great video, what is the music at the beginning?

Edwin Moses could have so easily been a 4 time Olympic gold medallist. The US boycotted in '80 where he could've won blindfolded, and then he was upset in the final few meters in '88 in Seoul. He was the most unbeatable athlete in track and field in the mid 70's to mid 80's.

Excellent video as always. Just out of curiousity, how many times did Bolt lose the 200m ?

1 *Thanks total running productions!

You missed Steve Ovett! He won about 45ish consecutive middle distance races before his 1500m defeat at the 1984 olympics

On a separate note: Valerie Adams, sister of Steven Adams... for all of you basketball heads! 7:25

Nice video as usual ! What is the title of the intro music ? I know it is a free song but I've not been able to find it

Wooo go Valerie Adams!! She's a legend in New Zealand

Valerie Adams reminds me of Ms. Trunchbull from Matilda

What an excellent mini documentary. What about Juantorena, the 400 metre runner famously described as "opening his legs and showing his class"?

WoW! I never knew about Balas she was amazing 😳

3:55 I too never won a silver or a bronze at world level 😅

Edwin C Moses! Such a great athlete.... Amazing! Shout out to Dayton, Ohio!

For all these things, I am glad that I am Romanian!

Thanks for mentioning people like Parry O Brien - people like him don't get the credit they deserve. Athletes like him and Flosbury practically revolutionized their events.

Good good to see the great men and women who work hard to get the gold medals

Cool video, but I think you are missing Merlene Ottey (57 consecutive wins in the 100m).

Aleksandr Karelin - the wrestling federation had to change the rules at the last minute to stop this guy since no one could beat him. 887 wins and 2 losses - 13 years undefeated. Even his loss is clouded in doubt because of the sudden rule change to stop him. This guy was the perfect wrestling machine.

I thought Merlene Ottey might have made the honourable mentions. She went a couple of years unbeaten in the early 90's.

Bro zatopek was just like “mmmmm i dont feel like losing today so umm...”

Aye bolt had his time it’s time for some of these new runner to take the field

What song was that used during the Parry O'Brien clips?

I guessed Moses rip

Please tell background music at no . 6 Emil zatopek thank you

On the honorable mentions you missed that Carolina Klüft had more consecutive wins in heptathlon (19 or 18 if not including world youth championship) than Jackie Joyner-keresee.

one interesting talking point is how you count championship qualification rounds. A) Do they or do they not count? and B) if you get one of the qqualification spots but do not win, does this or does this not break your winning streak?

What's the song, started in @?

Enjoyable!

There is winning streaks based on time, and on events won in succession. Both are relevant.

I love it when a clean athlete was upgraded to be the real winner after a PED athlete was later DQ'd.

What's the song, started in 8:30?

Does your list of wins include preliminary heats. If so, I was at the 1996 Olympics and saw Michael Johnson take second in his first round race. He visibly slowed down in the last 100m and was nipped at the line by a Sri Lankan who was running in lane one.

The consecutive streak of wins in any sport is 555 games by Jehangir Khan, A Pakistani Squash player, 1981 to 1986. That has and probably will remain the longest winning streak by a sprotman in any game.

If I would to guess, I would say beside 154 consecutive wins, Iolanda Balas holds one more record. The most paused athletic performance of this video - 13:33. The same category achievement for movies however still remains unbeaten, after World's record of Shannon Stone in “Silver”.

What is the intro melody?

What's the name the sound at the start of the video

One of bolts biggest achievements was introducing a new generation to athletics ...you knew you were witnessing greatness. For me there's nothing that compares to the Olympics because like I said about usain bolt there's that anticipation that barriers could be broken and your seeing the evolution of athletics ...the best competing against the best from all over the planet ...

I never even have silver or gold haha And still dreaming to be as good as them lol Kudos to all of these legends👌

Daley Thompson was unbeaten for 9 years.

I keep getting Usain Bolt ads

Stefka Kostadinova high jump at 2.09 m this is unbeatable

Only two with 4 successive Olympic Golds. 12 years. Of course they lost a few events in between: Carl Lewis (long jump), Al Oerter (discus) , Both USA. What’s extra interesting about Oerter, is that in no Olympics was he favourite.

They should get Mondo on here now

Between 2013 when Bolt lost to Gatlin in Rome and 2017 when he retired, did Bolt actually run 45 individual final races? That cant be possible with only 4 championships and his very few appearances on the circuit. Also Michael Johnson competed in the 200m in 1992 Barcelona but because of food poisoning, he didn't run well and finished 6th in his semi final. Regardless, really great video though, appreciate the detailed breakdown and list! Your previous videos are dope as well!

Adams actually won the gold outright in 2008 even with drugs the belarussians couldn’t beat her.

Do these records include the elimination rounds?

Valerie Adams is Steven Adam's sister (Center for OKC Thunder) by the way. Something like 16 kids in their family and half of them are pro athletes lol.

Al Oerter didn't make the list? He should had been on this too. He was an unbeatable discus thrower for many years. Won gold medals in 4 Olympic Games in the discus (1956, 1960, 1964, & 1968).

6:59- "Marthon"

@ 4:00 - Johson lost to Bailey in the 150m race on June 1,1997. This would've been his first loss, ending his win streak. His injury you mention at 4:10, is supposedly from this, not a year before at the Olympics.

What about Harrison Dillard's winning streak of 82 races? Also you need to look at Steve Ovett's winning streak over the mile and 1500m up until the final of the Moscow Olympic 1500m

You forgot our sprinter, jodie Williams. She had a winning streak of 151 races over 100m and 200m, us brits treasure her

Anyone know what Michael Johnsons pb is for 100m

What about Maria Mutola the 800m runner from Mozambique she was prolific in her time and had a great career

154 wow I got goosebumps yow.

Because of performances like these, is why Valerie Adams is known as the Queen, all these athletes were incredibly dominant, they deserve any name they were given.

Who was that javelin thrower that was so dominate? Surprised he wasn't on the list

what is current longest streak?

Come on men! where is Jan Železný for the javelin throw, 98,48m?! That guy is a legend. He is "The Guy Who Forced the Field Size to be Increased".

Bubka only an honorable mention, the dude held the WR for 30 years second only to Mike Powel and he didn't break the WR once he did it 17 times. He still has the best performance ever outdoors.

Music 0:07 ?

I wonder why Bob Beamon(long jump) and Jan Zelezny(Javelin thrower) names not in the list🤔

KELLY SLATER - longest winning streak ever. 11 World Titles. Pro surfing career of some thirty years and still going at the elite level.

I was unbeatable at the football training when we ran 200m 10 times. Teammates were sucking air while I was there just chilling and waiting for another run to beat these guys. Great feeling

"The marathon, which measures out to 25 miles."

When doping was still allowed

Edwin Moses won 154 out of 159 400m hurdles finals in his career Michael Johnson won 60 out of 63 400m finals in his career Holy shit

You said Usain Bolt had 45... does that consider the race he false started or no?

Nice. It s a bit easier to win 100 shot put competitions than to win 100 marathons.

Balas may have been undefeated due mainly to the fact that during her time, there are less competition. Unlike today where the training is so stiff and so high-tech, so athletes today are better trained scientifically and with better nourishment unlike before...

damn having a sister like valerie, now i know why Steven adams is so scared of his older sister lol.
