Corey Johnson, narrator.
Featuring never-before-seen archival footage and new research, it reveals how the modern Olympics were shaped by the collaboration of interests between Hitler and ambitious Olympic planners. The grand themes and controversial issues from the 1936 Berlin Games have continued to this day: monumentality, budget overruns, and collusion with authoritarian regimes, corruption, and sometimes even bribery.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
The Appalling History of the Olympics submitted by KidBlue on October 27, 2022, 2:03pm Forget about the ideal of athletics apart from politics. Because if Hitler's Nazi Games in 1936, the Olympics are war by proxy. The Olympics history is rooted in the support of fascistic regimes. There is far more to this story than Jesse Owens. This appalling, disturbing history.
