Olympic Decision

[anidiotcalledgregg]

I remember my dad saying 'as long as the french don't get it I'm happy'. I just wish I was interested in the olympics so I could of celebrated with them. I can't wait now though.

[coventrydavid]

Can't wait.  I've got my tickets for the games!

[Mark5058]

Great to be able to see what it was like there. Poignant to hear sirens, knowing what was to come in London in less than a day

[DickieandBen]

it would be funny to see this vid if we didnt win , 1000's of sad people a large crowd

[calorus]

@DickieandBen - Nah we're British, we'd have clapped for whoever won.

[KeopsG]

I've been looking like crazy for a video with the previous moments... I can't believe there's videos for everything on youtube but none for this moment! anyone know anything about this? I want to see the melanie c singing. I was there and it'd be quite special for me to see again...

[marcoie]

how did those women know before he even announced the winner? Wasn't it live? or with like a 2 second time delay?

[morgbaden]

Listening on radio which was a few seconds ahead

[ridd201]

Unfortunately this fantastic moment was sort of ruined when the London bombings happened 12 hours later.

[GaryGarratt]

HAHA Thats quality! I watched this live on the news. I love the way that women starts going mental and cheering before the result even comes out hahaha!

[largesatsuma]

She must have been listening to a radio of something

[Demoesceptico]

Luck to Rio de Janeiro in the candidature for the Olympic Summer Games of 2016!!!

Here in Chile is slowly taking enthusiasm the idea to organize the Olympic Winter Games of 2022 or 2026, in Santiago.

God wants to our political and sportive authorities convince so that with this begin to work to attain it.

And God wants to that you succeed the next year in Copenhague, Denmark, when it choose the host city of 2016.

¡¡¡Good Luck!!!

I'd love to go to London one day, you guys totally deserved it!

[TDarkHunt]

Funny how it's held at trafalgar square, the monument which commemorates the victory of the English over the french LOL.

[alfredoggs]

[DJBertz94]

:)

[wimbledonx2]

oh how i wish i was there!

[flippywillsvidz]

get in there

[samross93]

woop go London!

[ashdaboy91]

Why did some people start cheering before it was announced?

[morgbaden]

Because our radios were a few seconds ahead of the TV link.

[rhys21kipling]

you are so stupid do you no what a radio is

[jeffreynumber5]

Yes they probably do if they were listening to one.

[AlfredMcLuvian]

I was at Trafalgar Square at that time. It was impossible to hear all those ppl!

Me myself being a Pole, I really adore the city of London. I've been to USA recently and I have to admitt that none of those cities could charm me as much as London did. I trully adore the city and I hope to be living there in the future!

Regards, lads!

[leoboy16]

classic moment, the people listening on the radio ruined it a bit though

[Geordiesned]

Yeah talk about being impatient! They really couldn't wait 2 seconds to find out at the same time as everyone else? lol

[alfaceandrice]

OMG! It is going to rain so much, look at the sky. LOL

[fylestyle05]

In my school my sister listened to the results on the radio and she was in her french class and her teacher was french. The teacher felt really awkward when london was announced the winner! lol. London 2012 is gonna be great!!

[hipoo12]

The other night I watched some recorded footage from the closing ceremony at the Sydney 2000 games. It looked so good that I felt a little jealous of the people who were there, but then it just made me so excited for London 2012!

[netapp14]

God i remember watching this at my skool library at lunch we were so happy BRING ON 2012!!!

[Clarkey4boro]

LMAO, I watched it in my school library too. We turned the TV on when France was put into the final so at first we thought that France had won

[gazatr0n]

Were so happy because we won the olympic bid and slapped France in the face at the same time. Ha Ha

[Frickfrak]

I LOVE that everyone is so enthusiastic, it's really heartwarming to see.

[jejobang]

the lady shouted in advance coz she had understand french..knowing that london translates it to english

[xtrashed]

i'm confused. where did she hear it in french?

[Jebusiness]

[Hullabaloo1]

Lol at the people who were listening to their radio's (Y)

[Jamandell]

[xxxRockTubs]

[oldonmachado]

Rio 2016. Wait...

[guitarfr3ak75]

what was the 2 sec early excitment. after roggue said "..city of.." u see a lady w/ her hands in the air and a few shouts of "yeah!" was it just for kicks? or do u think they knew a lil bit ahead of time. small-delayed telecast u think?

[morgbaden]

Yes, one of the shouts was me! A few of us in the crowd were listening through our radios and we were a couple of seconds ahead of everyone else. The woman went crazy while I waited for the crowd to catch up!

[BritishBarbarian]
