best Olympic TV commercial

Many were excellent.

But I liked best the VISA commercial featuring sprinter Derek Redmond who, at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, “tore his hamstring in the 400 metres semi-final but fought through the pain and, with assistance from his father, managed to complete a full lap of the track as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.”

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

Today Redmond works for UK Athletics and is a motivational speaker.
