If anyone needed a reason to be proud to be an Australian then they should watch this video. I could watch this video over and over again. Thank you for making this video, in my eyes you are a national hero, thank you so much.
When you watch that 4x100m swim, I love how ferociously Thorpe kicks compared to the American in the last 20! It's like an outboard in the water behind him!
apolo was in the lead for that 1000m short track speed skating final! if the korean hadnt brought them all down he would have won. the austrailan was the lucky guy in the back. the guy from the desert island won.
4x100 relay was one of the all time great sporting moments. so exciting and a fantastic comeback by thopie. also, steve waughs 100 is something i'll always remember
I just watched your great video "Great Australian sporting moments" and I'd very much like to know which music you used at the start and which song is starting at 6:09 (or is it part of the same piece ?)
A big thanks in advance from a music and sportsfan in Belgium :-)
All the songs are in the info section to the right of the video, just click the button more info button to the right of the video to reveal the songlist (the songs are in order of appearance)
aus is the best sporting nation we have won 9 rugby league world cups,2 rugby world cups (along with south africa), we'v won the ashes 31 times, 4 cricket world cups, our fifa ranking is 14,12 commenwealth games, don bradman is the best athlet ever no other athlete dominates an international sport to the extent that Bradman did, we ranked 9 in all time olympics table not bad for a nation that started as a prison
Brilliant video mate, absolutely brilliant. Its a little disappointing to think back to this though, I remember growing up when we were winning everything - rugby and cricket world cups, dominating in the pool at the olympics, Lleyton Hewitt, Pat Rafter and the Poo winning slams, Davis Cup victories. We seem to be losing that shine and its a little disappointing
Love the recognition of Kerryn McCann
