Moments before four minutes past six, on the evening of the 6th of May 1954, Roger Bannister crossed the finish line at Iffley Road Track in Oxford, setting a new World record and breaking the four minute mile. As the announcer read out the time, the crowd erupted as soon as they heard three, and the time keeper holding the stop watch above dropped it, shattering its glass and freezing the record time forever. It would be several minutes before Bannister heard his actual time, a time that up till then had been considered impossible.
