Jesse Owens

Four world records in 45minutes, 1935

 

Everyone knows about Jesse Owens's four gold medals in the 1936 Berlin Olympics but athletics experts reckon his performance at the previous year's Big Ten meet in Ann Arbor was better. There, he had set three world records and tied a fourth, all in a span of about 45 minutes. Owens had a bad back but persuaded the coach to allow him to run the 100-yards where he tied the world record of 9.4. This convinced Owens' coach to allow him to participate in his other events. A mere fifteen minutes later, he took part in the long jump. Prior to jumping, Jesse put a handkerchief at 26 feet 21/2 inches, the distance of the world record. After such a bold gesture, he soared to a distance of 26 feet 81/4 inches, shattering the old world record by nearly 6 inches. Disregarding the pain, Owens proceeded to set a new world record in the 220y in 20.3, beating the old record by three-tenths of a second. Within the next 15 minutes, Owens was ready to compete in another event, this one being the 220y low hurdles. In his final event, Owens' official time was 22.6 seconds. This time would set yet another world record, beating the old record by four-tenths of a second.
