Herb McKenley almost won the 100m Gold at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics. This is the 100m photo finish. The race, which produced one of the closest finishes in 100m history, was won by Lindy Remigino USA in a time of 10.40, who won by one inch, and did not believe he was victorious.
That time was also recorded for Herb McKenley JAM (silver), Emmanuel McDonald Bailey TRI (bronze) and F. Dean Smith USA 4th.
