Some brilliant pictures here mate.

I remember many of them, some others, not so much and some are completely unknown to me.

They do bring back some brilliant memories, cheer. :thumbs2

Some absolutely iconic images there , particularly like the Maradona one which I hadn’t seen before and the Bolt image summed up perfectly the man and his incredible ability .

We could all add another fifty to that list if we put our mind to it , Nadia Comaneci standing in front of her “perfect 10 scoreboard , Torvill & Deans image at the end of Bolero and my own personal favourite,   this one…….😎👍

I was surprised it did not include the Tommie Smith  and John Carlos 'Black Power' salute at the Mexico Olympics in 1968.

I am sure I remember reading that the third placed Australian, Peter Norman, gave them the gloves.

Image result for carlos black power

Oops, just noticed there is a comment at the end of the article saying they featured this in a different article.
