His father was from Germany
originally...
and thought that because he's speaking
German, nothing would happen to them.
Alex Springer
So all the family stayed in Poland
during the war...
but my father ran to Russia.
He didn't want to stay because he was
afraid something will happen to them.
And all the family...
his brothers, sisters
and his parents...
were killed in Poland.
He was the only one who survived.
Thirty-six years
after the Nazi Olympics...
Dachau, the first of the concentration
camps, was chosen as the site...
for an Olympic memorial service.
The Israeli team
came to the service...
along with competitors
from most European countries.
Dachau is just six miles
from the Munich stadium.
I think it was very difficult
for him with the memories...
of his family
and what the Germans did to them.
I think he felt this.
But maybe it was also
for him to-
to show something to the Germans...
that " Here I am, coming back
to the Olympic Games...
and you-
you couldn't really destroy me. "
Spitz is still holding them off.
He's got a half a meter lead.
Down on the near side is- But Spitz is
gonna go in. Spitz wins the gold medal!
Mark Spitz, USA.
And that is the whistle anyway,
and the United States...
have kept their unbeaten record
unless-
The referee says there's
three more seconds to play.
The only way they're going to score
is by going for a long shot.
And they got it!
My goodness, I don't believe it.
I do not believe it.
The Russians have got the gold.
Victory for the USSR
for the first time ever.
Absolutely fantastic.
Myself and two others traveled
from Libya to Germany...
two days before the operation.
leadership had given us the address of.
There we met up with
the rest of the team-
another group of three and two leaders
who had been in Munich for some time.
The following day my friend and I...
went to a couple of volleyball games
at the Olympic Park.
We still had not been told what
the target of our operation was to be.
After one of the competitions he said,
"Hey, there is the Lebanese team.
I'm going over
to say hello to them. "
I, coming from Holland, said,
'Are you out of your mind?"
They are from Lebanon.
Israel was in a state of war
with Lebanon.
He said, 'Ankie, that's exactly what
the Olympics are all about.
Here I can go to them and talk to them.
That's what the Olympics are about. "
So he went over and he asked
how were your results...
and I'm from Israel,
and how did it go?
To my big amazement, I saw
that the people responded...
and they talked to him...
