Bar None: Tan Sri Mani Jegathesan (Part 2) - The Spirit of Olympism

As we countdown to the start of the 2016 Rio Olympics next month, we continue our chat with three time Olympian Tan Sri Dr. Mani Jegathesan, who was once dubbed the 'Fastest Man in Asia'. The legendary sprinter talks to us about his fondest memories at the Olympics, the true spirit of the Summer Games and being sucked in by something called Olympism.
