    Canadian player was full of confidence from the beginning

    Still watching this in 2021 at 3am because of quarantine...
  • It's a shame Derek won't be at 2021 Olympics.. I competed against him in high-school, obviously lost but it's cool to see someone I've met in the Olympics

    Crazy how these guys can high jump 7+ feet in the air

    This would have been so much easier if Isaac Newton didn’t invent gravity

    If these guys ever commit a crime, the prison will have to build some taller fences

    I didn't realize just how sharp Drouin was that day until watching this again. He was so far over every height until 2.38. Barshim was nursing an injury which was why he was only taking a very short approach. In events where he was jumping 2.42 or 2.43 he used an 8-stride approach, twice as long as he was using here. He still cleared 2.36 with this short run-up but that's not where he would have jumped from his full approach. Perhaps Drouin still could have jumped 2.40 on this day but he didn't have to.

    Bondarenko face at 5:54 .....priceless. That's the face you make when you know a gold medal is no longer in sight
