Everything about Du An Milo Evi totally explained
Dušan Milošević (born
June 1,
1894 in
Stragari,
Kingdom of Serbia – died
May 19,
1967 in
Belgrade,
Serbia,
SFR Yugoslavia) was a Serbian multi sport athlete and olympian.
He competed as one of two athletes from Serbia at the
1912 Summer Olympics, the other one being
Dragutin Tomašević.
In addition to representing the
Kingdom of Serbia internationally in
track and field and
swimming, Milošević was also one of the founders of
BSK, as well as one of its first
footballers.
On
May 20,
1912, he won the 100m qualification race in
Košutnjak that led him to the
1912 Olympic Games in
Stockholm, Sweden. He completed the race in 12 seconds. At the Olympic Games, on
June 23,
1912, he competed in the 100m qualifications and crossed the finish line third in his qualification group, clocking 11.6 seconds. Milošević didn't qualify for the next round, as only the two fastest runners in each heat would progress, but even if he'd qualified he wouldn't have been able to run because he passed out on the finish line due to the stomach pains.
He was taken to a Stockholm hospital, where he was diagnosed with
arsenic poisoning. He remained in the hospital for a couple of weeks, and his successful recovery was boosted by a visit from the
International Olympic Committee president,
Pierre de Coubertin and his daughter. The Swedish police made an inquiry, but it was never ascertained how the Serbian athlete got poisoned.
On his return to Serbia, Milošević quit athletics, and continued to play for BSK as a defender until the beginning of the
First World War. During the First World War he was imprisoned in a camp in
Hungary.
Most of his life he worked in an asbestos mine in Stragari, from which he retired as an advisor. He died and was buried in Belgrade.
