Story25
Abhinav Bindra once shot 100 out of 100 in practice six times in a row and walked out of the range unhappy. He is a perfectionist who once soled his shoes with rubber from Ferrari tyres because he thought it would help. He would wake up at 3:00 a.m. to practise at his range at home if an idea suddenly struck him. It is from such obsession that greatness arrives.

Story0
"If you're not strong enough to swim fast, you're probably not strong enough to swim 'pretty," said a young Esther Williams to theater impresario Billy Rose. Since the nineteenth century, tensions between beauty and strength, aesthetics and athleticism have both impeded and propelled the careers of female swimmers—none more so than synchronized swimmers, for whom Williams is often considered godmother. In this riveting history—the first of its kind—Vicki Valosik traces a century of aquatic performance, from vaudeville and dime museums to the Olympic arena.

Die zweiten Olympischen Spiele auf deutschem Boden sind das erste Weltereignis in der BRD: München 72 bietet die einmalige Chance, das moderne Deutschland vorzuzeigen. Alle wollen zum Aufbruch in die neue Zeit beitragen: berühmte Athleten, Helfer, eifrige Hostessen. Es ist ihr deutscher "Summer of Love". Bis es zum Terroranschlag auf die israelische Mannschaft kommt – und die "heiteren Spiele" ein abruptes Ende finden. "München 72" erzählt kunstvoll vom geteilten Deutschland, von alltäglichem Rassismus, Mode und Musik, Aufklärung und Sex.

Die Olympischen Spiele sind stets ein Höhepunkt für die Sportredaktion der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung. Da die für den Sommer 2020 angesetzten Sommerspiele in Tokio wegen der Corona-Pandemie um mindestens ein Jahr verschoben sind, lassen die Redakteure und Autoren stattdessen die spannendsten, bewegendsten und erschütterndsten Momente der Spiele seit 1964 wieder aufleben. Hören Sie in elf persönlichen Geschichten von Rekorden, Überraschungen, Tragik sowie Komik und wie der Traum von Olympia mitunter unbarmherzig an der Realität zerbirst.
