The most remarkable part of the saga came during the long jump competition. Owens was competing against Luz Long, a German athlete who was one of his strongest rivals. Owens won the gold medal, while Long took silver. After the competition, Long congratulated Owens, and the two athletes were photographed together. Their friendship became a lasting symbol of sporting respect across racial and political divisions. The story is particularly memorable because Long publicly showed friendship toward a Black athlete under Nazi rule.

CREATIVE MIND :

He became the first American to win four track-and-field gold medals at a single Olympic Games. His achievements made him the defining athletic figure of the Berlin Olympics, even though the Nazi government had intended to use the Games to promote its own ideology. 5.

Jessie Owen later said that Hitler congratulated him for his victory. He even waved at him. The person who displaced raw racism was actually the then American president, Mr Roosevelt who welcomed all the American Olympic team members to the White house upon their return from Germany but with the exclusion of Owen sorely because of his colour.
