47.01 second split, wild, that was like 2-2.5 seconds faster than the next woman
Supposedly a 47.94
“Are you fucking kidding me?!”
Her opponents, probably.
Damn
Holy shit, that was just so so so insane
Omg this was awesome to see.
what the heck how did she catch that. incredible
It looks like she’s jogging.
At first I was thinking the 2 front ladies would pass eachother, I saw the Dutch woman and though, look at how mechanical her run is, then after she turns it on, I thought, Holy shit look at that mechanic run!
I thought the dutch were out and a blink later she appears and absolutely smokes everyone. Wow. Can’t wait for her race tomorrow.
GB ran a good last leg there too to snatch a medal
Incredible from Femke Bol 👏🏻
One of the coolest Olympic moments so far, WHAT a finish!!!
Looked like she literally had a rope on the leader to reel her in
“Olympisch kampioen Nederland. Wat een fantastische race van Femke Bol.”
Hey, I understand Dutch!
Almost broke the WR too! Wow!
That was insane.
I think I’m a fan now
Jesus she was WAAAY behind when given the baton!! like if she had won and they started from the same position that’d be incredible, but to literally have a negative head start?!?! INSANE
That was UNREAL!!
I love reddit’s auto caption.
He won’t be able to stop him.
Reminds me of the French comeback in 4x400m relay in European Championship 10 years ago, still an iconic moment of athleticism in France: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-VYwC28KXI
Bol is an absolute beast. It felt like she came from out of nowhere to take the gold and she always looks like she runs effortlessly. Fun race to watch.
passed by the dutchie !
Femke Bol-t
That was incredible. She hit that extra gear at the perfect time. Gave me Terminator 2, T-1000 vibes.
That girl will definitely survive the zombie apocalypse.
She has been hawking down the gold in so many races usually from 3 or more positions deep and doing it in just the last 50-100m! Absolute beast when she can just find a new gear at the end of the race
She is poetry in motion. What a majestic finish, wow! Truly astonishing. 🏆 🥇
Looked effortless for her
Good sportsmanship by the USA at the very end….thats what i want to see from our athletes.
Setting a WR in prelims just to lose in the finals 😭
Damn she closed that gap fast
Mickey Mouse strikes again
Amazing. Website says 47.93 split for Bol. That’s #2 all time behind Marita Koch from 1985.
Note: Koch is known to be a part of the state sponsored doping program in East Germany.
Wow. I ain’t even mad
French commentators telling her way to run being suboptimal, too rigid. Mmmh sure.
They were only .02 off a world record, what an incredible turn of events! That whole country would have been jumping up and down watching her overtake the others at the end!
VTEC kicked in yo!
Such class, absolutely loved it
I love watching athletes that are in peak physical condition getting absolutely smoked by generational talents. Femke Bol is must see tv anytime she’s on the track
Why does it look like some runners are just jogging (clearly they aren’t) while some others are sprinting. For example, the US runner seems like she’s running hard but the British and Dutch runners look like they are running at a relatively chill pace. Very fascinating
That, is an amazing race right there.
I think this was the greatest performance of a athlete in this Olympics. Just great.
