Beyond Selidor

Isn't it just staggeringly good? I think my only quibble would be that it's missing Cathy Freeman, but my impression is that the vid creator is an American, so may not have been aware of the symbolic significance of an Indigenous Australian woman winning the 400m race at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 (the last Olympics of her career and her last chance to win an elusive gold medal; I still remember watching the event on TV as a fifteen-year-old and getting genuine chills down my spine when she stepped out onto the track, the green, gold and white of her full-body hooded lycra running suit in contrast to the night sky, and the calm way she moved through the air as the race progressed).

I should leave a comment too. I always feel weird about doing so on old posts.
