"The Big Ones That Got Away offers unforgettable stories of going for Olympic gold...and almost making it. Highlights include the story of the 1936 German women's relay team that, with a 10 meter lead, dropped the baton on the final pass-off, the controversial ruling that gave swimmer Lance Larson the silver medal when most of the judges thought he had won the gold. Sprinter Dave Sime's relay championship that was won and then lost; the astounding last-second controversy surrounding the 1972 USA-USSR basketball showdown and many more." This is from tape six, entitled "Against All Odds" from The Olympiad Greatest Moments series. This video is 50 minutes long.
