Peter Haining MBE.wmv

This is a video of the 1993 Lightweight Single Sculls final - the first of three consecutive Gold Medal performances by Peter Haining MBE one of our greatest ever rowers. This is an inspirational video - not his best sculling example - but shows the guts & determination that differentiates a World Champion from us mortals! - talk about doing it the hard way!

I`m also very proud to have grown up with you and watched you train through the years when we were youngsters you are an inspiration to the future of the youngsters who chose to be involved in rowing.

Is there another link to Peters Appearance on A Question of Sport?

@galby46 - I spoke to Peter just before Christmas and he was talking about being on Q of S - although haven't been able to find any video from it. Peter is inspirational in all kinds of ways - not just rowing - he is a great friend to have!

David Goldstrom's commentary is incorrect - Niall O' Toole was not the 1st Irish rower to win a world championship medal - Sean Drea of Ireland won a silver medal in the heavyweight single at the 1975 world championships.
