Medal Ceremony - 2005 World Championships, Beijing

[epiphaniii]

Christy's YouTube post led me to this video of Apolo and the men's team receiving their bronze medals in Beijing, 2005. I was happy to see this because some of us have posted photos of the ceremony here and it was like seeing the pics come to life!

I like the US guys' less-than-graceful but cute walk onto the stage (hahaha), Jordan's smile, Mathieu Turcotte (?) of the gold-winning Canadian team jumping up and down, and Apolo stomping his foot. Apolo is very fidgety, despite Shani's attempt to get him to face the camera. The "Hey guys, smile!" request is cute (Allison, maybe?).

You're welcome, imapolo'sqt! I really like your screen name.

Laura, I wonder how the poster at YouTube got a hold of this video. I wonder if he/she took the video live, or was able to view it on TV overseas. I am very grateful for everyone who has the know-how and takes the time to share such videos with us.

I totally agree
