Muhammad Ali Surprised Kids on “Candid Camera” Back in 1974 [Video]
All, Boxing, Television, Video January 25th. 2013, 3:20pm
This video is a few years old – Nearly 40 to be exact. I’m not sure how many times it has shown up on the Internet over those 40 years, but I had never seen it and that should be good enough for you. Ali appeared on Candid Camera in 1974 to surprise kids at PS 41 in New York. The big was simple, ask kids about Ali, get them talking and then bring in The Champ. Shock, surprise, fear, joy and awe follow.

I know there are about three boxing fans here, but has anyone else read Four Kings yet? I’m halfway through and love the old stories those guys tell.
