Mark the date of today: only 50 days to the Olympic Games in London!
I love the Olympics.
I love the thrills, the emotions, the stories.
And I end up watching and cheering for sports like archery, ping-pong, or weight lifting...I swear it's true.
I made few mash-ups of youtube videos (sometimes the quality is not that good...but better than nothing!) of some memorable gold medals to commemorate the event, and get the tears going...
One video for each country.
So nobody feels left out.
They are not comprehensive and are largely focused on the most recent Games (from Atlanta 1996 on), but please feel free to write in the comments any other winner (with medal or not!) that have sent chills up your spine!
Enjoy.
