The moment you’ve won GOLD! 🎉💯
Let’s go back into the archives to when amputee skier Alexander Spitz won gold in the men’s slalom LW2 at the
#WinterParalympics in Lillehammer 1994. He is completely overjoyed and his reaction is priceless, a forever moment.
Accessible description: Archive footage of Alexander Spitz - a single leg amputee skier competing in the slalom competition. At the bottom of the mountain he suddenly realises he has won gold so he throws his ski into the air and jumps for joy. He then falls backwards onto the snow and continues to celebrate wildly by punching the air.
