00:00I
00:04Realize now why it became so much bigger than just a hockey game
00:11We weren't superstars we were the boy next door lunch pail hard-hat group of guys
00:18To this day, it gives me chills
00:23The American team they're all amateurs the feeling was these guys have no chance
00:28He was gonna be a runaway
00:30That's how dominant the Soviet team was
00:34We needed a chance and her was a perfect person our approach to the game was going to be entirely different
00:40Herbie kicked our ass. I trained harder than I've ever trained in my life as a country
00:46We needed something to feel good about and we were in the midst of a cold war that was about as cold as you could get
00:52They were the enemy. They were Darth Vader
00:55You're prepared all your life for this moment
00:57The Russians with her fur coats and the American Cowboy
01:02We have been in big moments before but nothing like this. I look up and it's like
01:12The energy in the room I can feel it you're out there playing against these guys and they're immovable
01:17I think people related to who we were somehow this band of kids came together
01:31We had the audacity to believe we can do it
01:34They thought it was impossible
01:36They thought it was impossible! This is illicit! I can't believe it!
