You finished this race with 100% dignity and a father’s love. I cried in ‘92 and to this day. God bless your will power and your father’s love. Lodie. ☺️

Everybody needs their dad. Never more illustrated with the moment derek bursts into tears after his dad gets to his side.

Derek. Thank you.

That was a championship moment... Never quit, fight !!

I watched this at school in 2018 never ever forgot it

I literally cried by seeing it and I really respect him from🇮🇳

My fellow countryman, Derek we are all very proud of you for showing the true meaning of Sport. Unfortunately your Olympic dream was shattered, never able to reach that pinnacle again, but that moment will surely live on in people’s memories forever.

You are a legend derek

What a wonderful story!!

Who on 🌎 would thumb this down? This is 1 of the greatest olympic moments of all time.

RIP to his dad.. passed today!

Probably would have medalled too in the final. Was such a devastating blow to Redmond but an inspiring moment

I started crying when I saw this, true human strenght to keep going in situation like that

Fair play to him.

Does anybody even remember who won this race? Only ppl who won are the Redmond's just an absolute beautiful moment that I cry watching every time

God is that Father that will come at our weakest moment to pick us up and carry us the rest of the way.
