Lance

You have to watch this , to actually see for yourself , how shocking this story is! Lance Armstrong abuses his healing from cancer and all his charitas to justify a life full of cheating, lying and using doping, destroying other peoples life's along the way but most of all ruining 7 Tour de France years long the cycling sport. Destroying also the chances to win this race for the few ounces that want to do it clean....And it makes you realise that it hasn't stopped after that . Landis admits in this programme that he won the Tour on doping as well.... and there was Ullrich...and how many did the same the following years... And today..?! Shocking!

Does the world really need yet another documentary about disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong? This series is very thorough, and benefits from an unusual frankness from its protagonist. Clearly, Armstrong is, while admitting to his crimes, trying to build the case for his partial rehabilitation; but he seems more honest here than previously, if not necessarily more likeable. He clearly carries resentment that other dopers have been treated less harshly than him; but he was the boss of the peloton, a rich man and a bully with it, who denied everything as aggressively as possible for as long as possible, and there's simply no way sociery could, or should, have given him a free pass. If Lance will now foreover be the poster child for sports doping, he made it so. Armstrong's story is still both an amazing and terrible one, and it's retold here well; he remains an intriguing figure, albeit not a nice one.

He pretends that he accepts the wrong that he did but he still can't forgive Landis? He's still trying to reframe himself as hard done by, as much in his own mind as in other people's. The mental gymnastics he must go through on a daily basis makes me almost feel sorry for him. Except that he's a manipulative narcissist.

I'm looking forwards to a similar documentary with Trump after he gets out of jail for tax evasion...

I suspect that Armstrong hoped that this video would help rehabilitate his reputation, but his performance does him no favors. His petulance and self-absorption are on full display. With his deep pockets and his ready access to media, Armstrong tried to ruin the lives of people who he knew were telling the truth; yet he is more concerned in this video with what he imagines to be the world's unfair treatment of him.

Single minded , arrogant and selfish !! Along with a talent . Problem is that only winning mattered and winning anyway possible!! It's always the others not me attitude!! It's a very interesting film but it's the same as all these type of people. It's a shame because he was a fantastic talent and didn't see that as enough! Not sure if there was much point to this film ! You do hope that he can put his demons to rest !!
