And much too often, people cannot face their grief and would rather run with the conspiracy theory, rather than face the fact that often life is unpredictable and bad things happen to people who do not deserve it. I fear Kipchoge is at the receiving end of people who cannot reconcile their grief and are looking for somewhere to aim it.

There were a few trolls alleging Kiptum was murdered within hours of the news breaking. On one of the Facebook groups I am in, one troll started claiming that Kipchoge was behind it the day it broke. The last post I saw had the heading, "finally Kipchoge will be arrested". This was just a day or two before Tokyo. I suspect the number of complaints to the administrator of the group eventually led to the troll being removed. One comment on one of these posts stands out to me. In some parts of Africa, although not just in that continent, the belief in magic and witchdoctors is strong. And this is what Kipchoge is being accused of, hiring a witchdoctor to put a curse on Kiptum. These trolls "backed up" their claims by saying Kipchoge didn't acknowledge Kiptum's world record, or at least not effusively enough for their liking. There were also allegations that 3 men supposedly turned up at Kiptum's home just before the tragedy. None of this is true of course. From what I have read, Kiptum ran a 40+ km long run that morning and then decided to drive home in the evening. In Australia there are signs all along our regional roads and highways about drowsy drivers dying. Micro sleeps, of just a few seconds, can end in tragedy, which is the most likely cause of the accident that killed Kiptum and his coach, not Kipchoge or a witchdoctor's spells. These accusations are just compounding the tragedy for everyone who is a fan of the sport. Thanks for the video.

I love marathon, I enjoyed watching Kipchoge break records and setting new standards. All this came about the time Kiptum broke his record and he kept quiet for a loooong time waiting for "Ratification" of Kiptum's record. Unfortunately, that sparked negativity from fans. The saddest part that most people do not know is that most marathon teams/camps are always competing, but not in a healthy way. Personally, I think Kipchoge had a hard time accepting that his record had been broken and that by itself lay way for trolling and the expectations from the local community that he, being a "mentor/role model" for many upcoming athletes, should have been "the first" in congratulating Kiptum. It's sad that it has all come to this.

Thousands of people die in crashes. When your numbers up...Just because they're well known ( within a certain group)doesn't mean there is a conspiracy of some sort. That's delusional paranoia.
@SuperFuzzyDunlop3 ай бұрын
Why? People die in car crashes all the time and there's nothing about being a celebrity that protects you from that. It would honestly be suspicious if famous people never died in car crashes

@@Fourevrlearning He was on track to be the next greatest of all time and you know people will be jealous and hate. And are there more details of the crash? Was he drunk and or speeding? Usually when people die in car crashes they don't just lose control of a vehicle randomly while going the speed limit.

The notion that Eliud Kipchoge would have benefited from Kiptum’s death is wrong as well as vile. A Kipchoge-Kiptum match-up would have been the most exciting contest in athletics since Coe vs Ovett. Even if Kelvin Kelvin Kiptum had won, Eliud would have been a winner too because of the excitement and publicity that would have been attracted into the sport of distance running, and specifically into Kenyan running. I sincerely hope that Eliud is able to deal with this awful situation like the champion and fine human being that he is. I hope the 2024 Olympic marathon is a glorious success whoever wins it, and that the Olympic movement can overcome, just as we overcame tragedies such as the terrorist attack at the 1972 Munich Olympics. And may Kelvin rest in peace. Harambe.

I can’t believe people are behaving like this towards Kipchoge. Especially his own country of Kenya, as he’s very humble and supportive of other people running great times. I’m a casual runner, and he’s one of my idols. Wish him the best.

several years ago I had the pleasure of watching EK break the world record in Berlin from in front of the Adlon Kempinski just short of the Brandenberg Tor. he has always been an inspiration for all who aspire to just be better; as runners and as caring individuals. I have cheered for him from near and afar I respect him for his decency and athleticism.

@patrickgerardin50013 ай бұрын
So sad and disgusting. Maybe he should have made a clear and friendly statement praising Kiptum's exceptional abilities (or ensure it had the expected impact if he did). This could have been done since London 2023 where Kipchoge gave the starter. This would have stopped social medias to fuel antipathy and rivaltry. I hope everything will go right for him and he may prepare the olympics with serenity.

I was going to write that the internet/smart phone/social media era has ruined society. But let’s be honest, humans have been doing that long before the internet. However, we now have a wider platform, which when abused can be devastating. More accountability needs to happen both for individuals and social media providers. Ridiculous that such a humble and inspiring athlete, along with his family, have had to go through this. I truly hope Kipchoge realises that more people are on his side than those cowards who hide behind keyboards😢.

Whoever started the rumour that Eliud was involved in the accident should be ashamed of themselves. Only a bad person could have such thoughts and publicise them. Only a bad person who would be prepared to do something like that could start such a rumour. It's a shame that there is no law that punishes character assassination. The only positive thing may be that Eluid now knows better who his friends really are. It's not really a loss to banish false friends from your life.
