Available…for His glory.

Okay, I have to do it. Ever since the 2000 olympics every time I watch swimming competitions I think about this guy. His name is Eric Moussambani from Equatorial Guinea. If you don’t remember or know the story- he got chosen by the IOC to represent his country in the olympic 100M Freestyle as an inviation to encourage olympic competition in his country. The other 2 competitors were similarly invited- they false started and Eric was on his own. Most laughed at him- the only YouTube videos I could find are of the Brits making extreme fun of him for the most part- I can’t post that…. so watch this. And know that by the end of the “race” most were not laughing- they were on their feet cheering for the guy. And keep in mind he had been swimming in a pool only 20M in length…. you gotta love the olympics…
