Sparked from a discussion in JTOR, but I feel this could do with it's own thread.

The one overlooking Forbes is great, but iconic? I dunno.

Gotta go with Miracle on Ice. It's the greatest moment in US sports history and possibly in all of sports history.

Though the video/call probably outpaces the impact this has.

The thing about the Ali picture is the timing. Have you seen the video (film) footage of that moment? He pumps his arm lightning quick and the guy snapped the picture at just the right time.

Re: What is the most iconic photo in sports history?
Babe Ruth where he's holding two bats, but I'm not sure if it's a famous photo or a famous short video, because I think he winks in it...and that's the famous part...I'm not sure if it's immortalized as a photo necessarily...
