Has anyone seen 'First' (London 2012 Official Film)?

 

I just did, and it is astonishingly bad! Around 95% of the film is in slow-motion for no reason. :lol:

I never watch such films, I prefer rewatch the full events replays ;)

Some great photos here.  Huge crowds for the tug-of-war!

Reflects a traditional Anglo-saxon distrust of race walking although, like so many other sports, we actually invented it. 

 

The swimming obstacle course has almost got its own emoji!  :underwater:

That was exactly 25 years ago today.

This 2.37 jump by Artur Partyka in Atlanta is probably my favourite olympic moment ever. What emotions...! Such a clearance, it was much more than 2.40 in the air!

    • I'll jump on the off-topic with an unpopular opinion - ice hockey isn't so stamina demanding to justify 25 people rosters. And it doesn't have big playing fields like football or rugby for example, where you'd require so many reserves. 15 field players + 3 goalies should be good. Or 18+3 at max. But 25 is too much imo and the constant substitutes are too much as well.
