On what kind of rink is this filmed? Definitely not a 400m rink ... the corners are way too tight and the other straight end is quite close by and the inner lane is so small.
Nothing filmed in Hamilton, Ontario. The player is an American, it was edited in American soil. The message is do not give not say defend that is not yours. Canadains are fucken crazy people. I moved to calgary due to a job, and I am dying of their idiomatic comments !
"never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."
I haven't heard of that quote of his, but from other things I've read, WSC might have been the most eloquent speaker out of all the leaders in recent history.
I don't care what he was as an individual man; he could lift up an entire nation in its direst of times with words like those, being there when his people needed comfort the most. That's more than enough to make him great.
That is so very true, what's even more amazing is that he had so many difficulties speaking early in life that one of his teachers told him to pursue a career where he wouldn't have to communicate with very many people...luckily for Britain, and the rest of the world as well, he refused to listen.
@WHOPPERMANIA That means you likely live in NC near Dan's ex and daughters.I got to meet Dan in NC at a golf tourney/ fund raiser for a famous childrens hosp.Dan was really nice and friendly and it was before he and Robin got divorced.
I remember this TV movie--A Brother's Promise. Jansen was devastated by his sister's cancer death. She had always been there for him, even as kids, and when she died a good portion of himself went with her.
I remember it all. Calgary, Albertville and Lillehammer. I can still hear the crowd chearing as he looked up at the scoreboard to see his time at the end of the race. But the most memorable thing was when he looked up and waved to the sky to honor his sister. If that moment didn't move you then you're simply not human.

In sport,every nation's sport instructors are
the sports' winners or gold medal-lists and never employ the sports' loser or not gold medal lists as a sports instrucors or sport professors.
And I never seen that case even more world
sport super-power : USA, Russia, Germany, China.
And Korea(South Korea)also, too.

This is my favorite olympic story of all time. It is like something out of a movie. I wish i could find the original footage of him winning Gold.
