The Indian marathoner who kept Adolf Hitler waiting at 1936 Berlin Olympics

In a one-of-a-kind incident which is hardly reminiscent to many, an Indian marathon runner CSA Swami became famous for inadvertently keeping Adolf Hitler waiting at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.

Swami, aged 22 at that time, was India's youngest participant at the 1936 Berlin Summer Games, and was determined to complete the marathon despite lagging far behind the leaders.
