Eric Moussambani of Equatorial Guinea - Eric the Eel as he has become known epitomises what the Olympics are about He apparently only learned to swim a year before the 2000 Olympics and had never swum a full 100m race Then the other two swimmers in his heat were disqualified for false starts Eric swam alone - pretty slowly ñ but to the roars of the crowd he finished His time was 1:52 72 (The gold medal was won in 0:48 30 )
