At the 1990 European Athletics Championships in Split the French team of Max Morinière, Daniel Sangouma, Trouabal and Bruno Marie-Rose improved the world record to 37.79 seconds. The record stood less than one year, as the Santa Monica Track Club from the United States team ran in 37.67 seconds at the 1991 Weltklasse Zurich meet. [1]

He was born on the same day (20 May 1965) as his teammate Bruno Marie-Rose.
