What Vancouver sounded like when Team Canada won gold in OT

A videographer was filming ferries crossing False Creek in Vancouver during the men's hockey final. The game was being broadcast in an outdoor arena at the water's edge near the middle of the frame.

Fast forward to the 1:00 mark to hear what the city - and the whole country - sounded like when the winning goal was scored in overtime. It's the sound of four years of tension being released.

There was a lot at stake on that game. The gold means we beat the record for most gold medals won in the winter olympics, and in 2002 in salt lake city the gold medal game was Canada vs. USA and we won the gold in their nation, people were saying that this was going to be karmic revenge.

Not to mention.. It's Canada and hockey.

Oh no, how ever shall he cope with the slings and arrows of the likes of me?

Look! on the horizon!
It's Saint Ching to Justins rescue, and he's definitely doing it out of concern for the poor little rich kid and not simply for the sake of being a contrarian.
