Full race of mens coxless fours A Final This was recorded from BBC coverage, commentators were Daniel Topolski and Gary Herbert Rowing held at Penrith lakes with lane 6 nearest camera
But both seem to have been dumped this time around for Paris - scandalous

One of THE most emotional and spectacular sporting achievements ever - along with fantastic commentary I remember watching it live in 2000 with tears in my eyes, and 24 years on - it still makes me cry Totally amazing 👍🏼

I remember watching this in a pub very late in the UK and everyone crowding around the old TV set shouting and willing GB to a famous victory.

I'm British but was living in New Zealand when the Sydney Olympics was on. Normally a very calm, quiet man, but the second half of this race was the one and only time I have ever got up out of my seat, screaming at the telly! Epic race. So proud of the GB crew - especially Tim Foster, from my old rowing club in Bedford, and Steve Redgrave, my rowing hero!

I got up to watch this in the middle of the night- no way was I missing it. The Italians were closer at the line than I remembered, but even back then, I never had any doubt that GB would win. Matthew Pinsent wasn't letting anyone past.

I remember how incredible it was watching this live - but also after watching GB, Italy and the Aussies cruise through their heats with stroke counts in the mid-30s. One of the reasons this BBC commentary was so exciting was the added drama of relaying what felt like a superhuman Dragonball-style power escalation in the closing stages. Phenomenal performance by all those crews.

Why on earth are these two especially Gary Herbert not commentating for Paris 2024 after doing every Olympics since 96 It’s especially brilliant listening to Herbert going mental when our boys / girls are doing well - however biased it may be

I remember this race perfectly, one of the most spectacular and emotionally races of all time. As italian very well done to Gb and Italy teams. I lost 4 pints as a bet with my english colleague, but it was worth it. After few months I saw very close Steve Redgrave as I was working in a private school in High Wycombe, You could see how he was a perfect athlete.
