The German athlete who helped Jesse Owens during the long jump at the 1936 Berlin Olympics was Lutz Long. Owens faced challenges with his jumps, and Long offered him advice on his technique and encouraged him to take a longer run-up. Their camaraderie and sportsmanship transcended the political tensions of the time and highlighted the spirit of the Olympics. Long's assistance played a significant role in Owens winning the gold medal in the event.
The1936 Berlin Olympics were supposed to be the showcase of "Aryan superiority". American track star Jess Owens, an African-American, won almost every race he was in handily, most against a young German man who was supposedly the best in the world. This young German athlete was apolitical, and when Owens got his gold medal for one event, the German held Owens hand aloft, and shouted to the audience: "Jesssseeee Owweeeens!!" Hitler was furious, and refused to shake Owens' hand.

Because Hitler wanted just a race of Arians, but Jesse Owens comes along and destroys that by winning 4 gold medals but the Germans still got the most medals and also one of Hitlers' friends betrayed him but becoming friends with Jesse.
