Hank Aaron- Chasing The Dream
Рет қаралды 8,891
2 жыл бұрынAired in 1995 on TBS, this documentary, stock footage, interviews and reenactments are used to tell the story of Hank Aaron, the black Major League Baseball star who broke Babe Ruth's longstanding record for most career home runs. Sports legends Barry Bonds and Ken Griffey Jr. describe how Aaron's achievement inspired their own successes, and those who played with and against the slugger offer firsthand accounts of his talents. Aaron also sits down to discuss his career and civil rights activism.

The greatest of all time and The real homerun King is Henry Aaron.

The right man did it. Hank was all class. Played the game the right way. And probably the best hitter to ever live. And yes STILL the legitimate home run KING. RIP Hank.

Hank Aaron: Chasing The Dream was nominated for an Academy Award in 1996. I had it in VHS and recently tried to order it in DVD or Blue Ray to no avail. Took my VHS tape to have it transfered to DVD but due to copyright issues they couldn't do it. Thanks for uploading this treasure. ⚾ Blessings from San Juan, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

The sweetest words said was when Hank's Mother was hugging him on the field and also in danger of being shot she said "well if he goes down we go down together" A Mother's love.

Love the 60s footage at Atlanta F.C. Stadium. I was there for his 500th... my dad took us to three straight games to see it and he hit it the last game.

This documentary had so much rare footage. He hit #500 eight days after I was born.

Yeah I wish we could find more footage of the 69 LCS in Atlanta. This is all I've ever seen from that.

I had to turn the sound down when that annoying Skully strats his dribble. Milo Hamilton's call of 715 was 100 times better than Skully's.

I was never a Dodgers fan (I was Braves first, then eventually Cubs) but Scully (that is how is name is spelled) was in a league of his own. He was great to listen to and thankfully there are MANY more people who think as I do.
