Reply to Jim Redmond, who helped his son Derek finish his 400-meter race at the 1992 Olympics, dies at 81 by JustMyOpinionz
I’m not cutting onions, you’re cutting onions.
Derek Redmond was in fine form heading into the Barcelona Games and had posted the fastest time in his heat but tore his hamstring on the back straight.
Instead of seeking medical attention, he attempted to hobble to the finish line.
As he rounded the curve, he was joined by his father Jim who barged past track officials and waved them away, holding his inconsolable son and crossing the line together as the fans at the stadium gave them a standing ovation.
"Whatever happened, he had to finish and I was going to help him finish," Jim said to the BBC after the race.
"We started his career together and we were going to finish it together."
