Steven Bradbury wins gold! - winter olympics 2002
Loading...
Uploaded by pgpete on May 28, 2008
This is my favourite olympic moment. we have become used to olympic wins where hundredths of a second are shaved off times and the athletes are just winning machines.
This win shows the human element in competition and gives us all a laught and a smile.
It serves as a reminder that you should never give up. no matter how grim things seem or how far you are behind.

This video reminds me of Ron Paul and the 2012 Presidential campaign.

To get to the Olympics at all, I have to giver him a 10 for discipline. He gets another 10 for situational awareness. Just making the finals should be worth a 9 at the least. Let's just say he makes the most of his potential.

Lmao, that shit is hilarious.

Anybody who says he didn't deserve to win the gold needs to read a bit about his history, He was a top competitive skater for ten years. He went to FOUR - count them 4 Olympics - you don't make it to 4 without damn hard work and being at the top of your sport. He had incredible bad luck during his career, he not only had his thigh sliced open during a World Cup event and losing 4 litres of blood but he also broke his neck in another accident in 2000 - 2 years before this. He is a legend

The skater is not bad but i wouldn't say that "the other skaters were going to fast and lost control" someone pushed someone and that guy fell into a person and he hit someone so on and so forth intil everyone fell except for the Bradbury.

Well earned.

Well deserved. The other guys got too greedy. Poor judgement, bad skaters.

We had to learn speaking about him in english class. Was so interesting when teacher explained how he won (I havent heard of him since that day) and i thought it should be interesting to look in youtube how he won. And bam! Amazing gold medal . Now hes my idol.

Winning in speed skating (or any race) is not about being the fastest- it's about being the best. He was clearly the best of the lot in this race.
