Nelson Mandela's celebration is iconic. Brings a tear to the eye, and I'm not even South African.
What a man!
What a moment!
❤
who is here after seeing Invictus ?
I spoke to an Indian friend of mine who asked me why I love rugby more than cricket, and I told him to read about the 95 RWC and then watch Invictus afterwards to see what this did for our country.
Me
one of the greatest sporting achievements of all time
It was fitting that SA won that game. Even if it was for one day, the nation united. RIP Joost, RIP Mandela.
R.I.P to Jonah Lomu and Chester Williams also.
@@negroamaw324 RIP James Small and Ruben Kruger
I only wish I had been old enough to fully understand and appreciate what happened on that day. I was only 1!
me too. i was 4.
I was still a sperm in my dad sack that day
@@conorlinehan714 i may have actually been a sperm. was born in 96
I was -1
It was amazing, it gave hope in a country that had recently lost an identity yet gained another, people were afraid of what may happen post white rule. Unfortunately, the euphoria only lasted about 2 weeks.....
As a Englishman with family ties with NZ, I was gutted at the time. My head knew the historic significance but it took my heart many years to catch up. The birth of a new country, nothing less.
I was there, Goosebumps…
I was 9 , first time i saw a rugby match. I'm french, and still a S.A team fan today.
Jay Hernanes so you supporting them tomorrow??
Is this true even after 2023?
Probably most famous final ever
What is the law of this game?
Miracle on ice might be just a little better partly it was USA vs USSR during Cold War.
That wasn't the final, though.
@@jpmatti5684 What are you smoking?
I remember this game very well being a all black supporter I remember the pain of the loss but the unifacaction of a country as South Africa and the support of black and white together was very powerful on the bigger picture south Africa had to win with all the emotion behind
Still beautifull to see while I watching invictus in 2019! French rugby man 😊👌🏻💓
What is your favourite memory from the history of Rugby World Cup?
Emoção e orgulho.
England beating Australia in Sydney
This one.
what we do in life echoes into eternity
You can even tell by their lips.
-Thank you for what you did to our country.
-No Mr President. Thank you for what you do to our country.
Yoo I just watched Invictus. And that part made me tear up! When they won... I'm guessing it was everyone's excitement and love of the game? Like I imagined how people felt on that very day, all the emotions going through everyone and I just had to cry a little... lol
Same. And I am Filipino, yet this movie was so touching and inspiring. Happy & motivational tears are the most powerful ones!
One team, one nation... Nelson mándela, the best president of South Africa 🇿🇦!!
where's Matt Damon?
nyo agik berak you you..
In this video, it’s where Matt Damon hides it’s where Matt Damon hides.

2023 October 28. I am here. The legend and the deep joy of victory of South African rugby.
Como Argentino, me encanta este momento, Sudáfrica unida, el saludo entre Pienaar y Mandela es la mejor imagen de un un pueblo que deja atrás el racismo, y se convierte en una Nación libre para todos los Sudafricanos, Nelson Mandela fue, es y será un sabio de nuestros tiempos !!!
What?
Been an All Blacks fan since I first watched a rugby game in 2000.
And I always find it upsetting reading about their losses in the RWC, especially this and the whole food poisoning thing.
But after watching Invictus just a few hours ago, man I can't feel bad anymore knowing what it meant to the country of South Africa. Congrats Bokke
This was the greatest SA rugby team and by far the best captain . Francois Pienaar...
being born in New Zealand as a child growing up we were taught about the great man that was Nelson Mandela. We were taught about Mandela and his people's fight trying to break down the racist white minority establishment that controlled South Africa. To this day it does'nt bode well with me as a rugby fan the 1981 Springbok tour of NZ. I would love to think the protests in NZ (even though NZ is a small country in the greater scheme of things), in a small way during that 1981 tour did something to help breakdown the racist control of South Africa during the apartheid era.
It absolutely did!
South African here and let me just say if it wasn’t for the international pressure that was applied onto the apartheid government to change their racist ways, there’s a chance that we’d still be living under the regime. It’s sad to think but it seems that one of the reasons for black/POC liberation was because South Africa was being isolated from the rest of the world, especially in sports like the Rugby World Cup, Olympics etc. You may think that your protest didn’t make a big impact, but yours and all the other international protests greatly helped us in gaining back our rights and freedoms.
I am 46y.o. Colombian-afro descendant born and currently a proud Australian citizen . Didn't know anything about rugby till I arrived in Australia and believe me I still don't know much about the game. But something I have learnt is that sports is God's way to right all the wrongs that humans do in earth. At my age I am starting to understand many things around the world. It's the first time thst I see this footage other than the movie Invictus that I loved. I am so grateful to have seen this video and so lucky to understand the important moment in modern history. I couldn't avoid to drop a tear watching it. And I am so glad to read both comments like these. Respect and love to both of you 💖🏆🙌🏾
Wkooy
The fact that Pienaar is white and Mandela black makes that moment even more beautiful.
caramba! Assitindo Invictus agora e vendo este vídeo dá pra imaginar o que significou pro país este título
Richard, esse foi o primeiro título da África do Sul na Copa do mundo de rugby union, mas também foi sua primeira participação, já q eles ñ participaram das 2 primeiras, por causa do boicote internacional, devido ao apartheid, fazia apenas 1 ano do fim do apartheid e o rugby representava como um símbolo do apartheid, já q era praticado em sua maioria pela minoria branca, tanto q a seleção do país só tinha 1 jogador negro na época, por isso a população negra tava torcendo contra os Springboks, inclusive na final contra os All Blacks da Nova Zelândia, q eram favoritos ao título, mas no intervalo do jogo, Nelson Mandela fez um pronunciamento, pedindo para os negros torcerem para os Springboks e q a seleção ñ representava só os brancos, mas toda a África do Sul, dps disso os negros passaram a torcer para os Springboks, oq fez com q o time reagisse e virasse o jogo e se sagrasse campeão, esse título representou a união nacional do país
Who's here after watch Invictus?
Four is the Boks' lucky number this year! 🏆#1🇿🇦
Se me eriza la piel viendo un dia tan historico con un icono de la libertad mundial O_O
J'y étais. Un sacré souvenir l'Af Sud.
Did it again🔥
More relevant than ever 💚
Invictus brought me here
2016 we took it again madiba RIP
Very beautifull moment
Love this people!
I remember this so well - even if we had not won as we did the whole Of SA celebrated!
Incredible moment : Mandela giving the cup to Francois pienaar
Esta es la forma de unir un país y no intentando separarlo ni atacar por ser de derechas o de izquierdas, sino mediante la unión de que todos son una nación
What happened @2:05? Did NM want to lift it too?
Using this video as a teaching aid for 'Invictus'... Yayyy!
And in 2019, after South Africa won its third cup and a black captain lifted it, many South Africans, included blacks, went to the airport to celebrate them. The team of the white South African, the one which represented apartheid. Mandela was right
I hate sport, but this is majestic
Long Live Mandela . . Long Live Francois Pienaar . . ❤️ From 🇵🇰
2:07 that awkward moment though
Iconic
El país del arcoiris.... más Mándelas para el mundo..... necesitamos muchos mandelas en momentos donde los líderes actuales están corrompidos por el ego
Нельсон Мандела мой кумир!!!! Очень крутой!!!)))
That number was his loyalty
“We didn’t have 60,000 South Africans. WE HAD 43 MILLION SOUTH AFRICANS!!”
such a beautiful Final. New Zealand and South Africa become a one Nation. I wasn't there but I can conjure up. I'm a 2k.. LOL
❤
Invictus❤️
I was fighting for my life because I had just drowned I was 1 years old
Invictus final scene
anyone notice the black guy behind Mandela, tried to get a handshake and was rejected.
Lol sad guy
true
Always remember that. The entire neighborhood seemed to roar at the win, you could hear the celebration happening. I don’t know we were really happy at the win but, I went to a multi racial school throughout the apartheid, and we were all cynical of the whole thing.
Nelson showed the world power of Sports. It is more than a competitive event to unite a racism hit country
The match itself was as total slug fest and defensive battle for the ages. Matches like that nearly always come down to conditioning and who wants it more. On that day South Africa simply refused to be denied. This despite pretty much unanimous opinion in the Rugby world that they faced inevitable defeat. Aside from the geopolitical implications of the match, this is a very compelling "guy story" just on its face. it is the stuff every boy and most men dream of privately. Of facing impossible odds, going on anyway, and winning.
There was so much hope and optimism about the rebirth of South Africa back then, but it was all for nothing. Less than 30 years later SA is utterly destroyed. The entire nation is now a burning pit of corruption, crime and violence.
It was the worldwide transformation to neoliberalism.
You see the same in romania, bulgaria, Slovakia, poland, hungary etc. The country sides of romania or bulgaria are to some extent slums, if you ever have been there.
Will this happen again this weekend?
It did!!!🎉🎉🎉
This is just not Rugby. We call it The Union. If we can convert The Great Nelson, why cannot with others.
It is the only sport the human race has not corrupted as yet. We shall leave it as such.
Let us enjoy a great Game JAPAN. The cleanest and polite people of all.
Let us respect Our Hosts, Let us Play Our Game. Let us Shake hands.
This is Rugby Union and not football or soccer.
This is Springbok country where's your green card?
Vim pelo filme invictus
Invictus
Anyone mentioned 2/3rd of the All Blacks squad got conveniently "food poisoned" the day before the final?
A prisoner who became a president
Please watch the movie "Invictus"

nah fam thats morgan freeman
Охуительно
Beautiful for a country, disgusting for a sport.
disgusting for a sport?
@@grainster Because the semi-final between SA and France was a disgrace of refereeing, 3 tries refused for France and the only try scored by SA was not valid (Even Kruger, the SA player that scored it said it afterwards). Then the fact that the ABs were suddenly all sicks just before the final raised suspicion of poisoning. Finally, the fact that SA players were likely using illicite products for doping (SA captain Pienaar himself said that they were taking pills). All of that makes this World Cup a disgrace for the sport, but this is usually shadowed by the beautiful story of a post-apartheid South Africa winning.
@@MrRikouz It's all bs. AB cheated again and again with referee and both AB and France are not stranger to doping.
Better dropping it and accept defeat
rip nelson mandela u know the all backs r the best
What ?
Viva rusia
This World Cup was ridiculous it should be win by New Zealand or France but it was World Cup after apartheid so RSA should be champions biggest shame World Cup
English plse...
Voetsek
Almost as ridiculous as your english
Yea, biggest shame, just like your english.
Too bad who got it by cheating this World Cup. But at the same time, fortunately who "won" otherwise the country would have been devastated.
cheats
