What number was Jesse Owens?

Answer 1

3

Answer 2

One as far as I know. Because of WW2 there were no games in 1940 or 1944. I don't think he was at the games in London in 1948. Don't know if he competed in 1932. He was the star of the Berlin Olympics in 1936 winning 4 gold medals. Being a black man it rather knocked a hole in Hitlers racial supremacy rubbish. Berlin was his only Olympiad.

Answer 3

In track you generally didn't have a number printed on your uniform. They either give you a sticker or a race paper to attach to your left hip so the judges can see and make it easier to record your time.

Answer 4

In the 1936 Olympics Jesse Owens number was 777. In the 100m race in the 1936 Olympics he narrowly defeated another African-American, Ralph Metcalfe.
