In the Los Angeles 1984 summer olympics Mary Lou Retton was the first American woman to ever win a gold medal in gymnastics. She won all around gold for the US team and earned silver medals for the Team and Vault. She also won bronze for the Uneven Bars and her Floor Exercise. That year with 5 medals she became the athlete with the all around most medals. This is my favorite Olympic moment because Mary Lou Retton helped set a figure for the future gymnasts, and she represented the strong American women we have.

On Thursday, August 1, 2016, Simone Manual became the first African American woman to ever win gold in the women's 100m freestyle, making olympic history. This is my favorite moment because it shows just how much hard work these athletes. It shows that you can't just go play a sport, and expect to win. You have to practice and take time. She is truly a inspiration, and it was a fun race to watch.

So my favorite olympic story was when Neymar won gold for team brazil in soccer. This doesn't seem that big but it was a very proud moment for brazil because they have never won gold in this sport and they are known for there soccer. It happened in the most recent olympics 2016

In the 2000 Sydney Games, during the opening ceremony, the North and South Koreans marched together for their short moment of alliance. They joined hands and marched around the arena, and it signified peace. This is my favorite moment because it shows that during these big events, big things can happen. Big, Good, Amazing things. I think that the olympics can bring nations together, during certain times.

Jesse Owens is my favorite athlete that was in the Olympics because he broke 6 world records in the span of 45 Minutes in 1936 at the Berlin games Hitler wanted to prove his theory about Aryan Racial superiority but Jesse Owens proved   him wrong and led people to hail Jesse Owens as the African- American Hero.

My favorite Olympic games moment was actually this year in Rio, because of the monumental amount of golds the U.S. swim team had, especially Katie Ladecky, she won a total of four gold medals(1/4 of the swim teams medals), all while smashing her own world record in the woman's 400 meter race, she also destroyed the 800 meter world record by a total of 2+ seconds, once again this was already her world record. This is my favorite moment because it was thrilling to watch someone win that many medals for your own country.

In the 1998 Nagano Games during the Downhill Competition, Hermann Maier suffered through a terrible crash. Even though he was in great pain, days later he went on to win two gold metals in different events. This is my favorite Olympic moment because Maier didn't quit because of what happened, he pushed on and achieved great things!

Who was involved in the moment?

Melankomas of Caria.

What was the moment or event?

The event was boxing and in the story Melankomas was known for defence and could deflect his opponent hits and not hit him in the process. This takic made his opponent frustrated and clumsy which had earned Melankomas lots of praise for his unique style and endurance. Melankomas could go a whole with putting his arms up and never putting them down to rest. His strategy of not hitting his opponent was interesting to the people even though he could have easily ended it and been victorious. But in the end Melankomas died young and undefeated.

When did it happen?

49 A.D.

Where did it happen?

Greese.

WHY IS THIS YOUR FAVORITE OLYMPIC MOMENT?

I love old stories about the greek gods and their heroes. This is my favorite moment because it tells a story from a long time ago that we still have today which I think is pretty cool.

Gabby Douglas is the first African of any nationality in Olympic history to become the individual all-around champion and the first American Gymnast to win gold in both individual all-around and team competitions at the same Olympics. She and Simone Biles are the only two American all-around champions to win multiple gold metals in a single Olympic games. Gabby Douglas is the first female reigning Olympic all-around champion to return to the World Championships and medal in the all-around since Elena Davydova in 1981. This is my favorite Olympic moment because she never gave up and she pushed herself to be the best.

“At the Berlin 1936 Olympics, Hitler planned to show the world that the Aryan people were the dominant race, Jesse Owens proved him wrong and sealed his place in Olympic history by becoming the most successful athlete of the 1936 Games. Owens also became the first american to win four track and field gold medals at a single Olympics (100m, 200m, 4x100m relay and long jump), a record that stood unbroken for 48 years.” This is my favorite moment in the Olympics because Jesse Owens proved a lot of people wrong.

My favorite olympic story was Ashton Eaton winning gold in the mens decathlon two years in a row this year, beating his previous olympic record. And after winning he shared an amazing moment with his wife celebrating his gold medal win. This all happened this year in the Rio olympics. And it's my favorite moment because it was his second gold in the decathlon which is an incredible feat
