These are the official results of the men's 4 × 400 metres relay event at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, United States.
Seizing the opportunity of a weakened U.S. squad, Great Britain's Iwan Thomas shot out to a lead from the gun, putting a large gap on the U.S.'s LaMont Smith to his inside.
Harrison held his position behind Baulch all the way until the end of the second turn, with Greg Haughton bringing Jamaica into the three-team breakaway for the medals.
Harrison steadily gained on the last half of the turn, pulling even by the straightaway, then cleanly separated, putting the U.S. in the lead.
Britain's silver medalist Roger Black gained on Maybank but ultimately failed to pass him, giving the U.S. the gold medal with a margin of four metres.
