This 46 minute documentary was broadcast in Canada by CTV and Discovery channel between July 10th and July 16th, 2004. At this time there are no plans for this footage to be released on home video or DVD. Narrated by Kiefer Sutherland, this production reviews the climate in the sporting world that led to the 1988 Seoul Olympic 100 meter event where Johnson broke the tape in 9.79 seconds, then was disqualified for a positive drug test for steroids. Now at age 42, Johnson claims that "everyone" was on drugs and that his country did not protect him. This program also examines concerns from athletes from the former East Germany as well as comments from Johnson’s coach, Charlie Francis, in addition to highlighting how Agence France-Presse first exposed the story that was news worldwide. Johnson and his coach still maintain his doping sample was sabotaged with stanozolol, even though he admits to years of steroid use with other illegal substances.

Although the topic of doping is a common sight on the sports pages of newspapers, no references are made to the BALCO controversy that followed these events.
