This video is not included in the Olympiad Greatest Moments collection. The back of the box reads: "From the land Down under...to the top of the world in Olympic Games competition. Ron Clark, Shirley Strickland, Dawn Fraser, Herb Elliott (the miler many think was the world's best ever) and others are featured in this tribute to The Australians, Olympians from one of the world's great sports-loving countries. Using competition footage and personal recollections of the athletes, The Australians (from Emmy-winning sports filmmaking master Bud Greenspan's The Olympiad series) captures the glory of Olympic triumph...and the dramatic human stories behind it." Originally released in 1975 and then again in 1988 by Paramount Pictures.
