#coc2014

There are videos on YouTube, the japanese camera has the best angle of the collision.....

Are you a troll. Did it sound like I was actually keen to watch the collision at all. (It - one of the collision videos - was actually one of the first Yuzuru videos youtube recommended to me, and I have religiously avoided those. I only watched this particular skate because I was impressed he somehow got onto the podium at all and went on to win GPF. There is only so far my curiosity can take me against my distaste for suffering.)

Kanako watching Yuzuru at COC2014

"We'll be friends forever, won't we, Pooh?" "Even longer."

Watching Yuzuru Hanyu gets hurt like that and still decide to skate really touched my heart. What was even more touching is that he fell five times and still got up like it was nothing serious. After he had finished his FP, he took his Winnie the Pooh stuffed toy and didn't let go of it until he had to be carried out. He kind of reminded me of Christopher Robin - a little boy with a great friend like Winnie the Pooh.

I really admire you, Yuzuru Hanyu.
