Ben Johnson hit the pinnacle of his career when he set two consecutive records: 100 meters world records at the 1987 World Championships in Athletics and the 1988 Summer Olympics.

He set the Olympic record during the 1988 summer Olympics in Seoul but was disqualified after three days when the Olympic doping control center found that Johnson’s urine sample contained a banned substance.
