A positive attitude trumps everything

The son of a mason, he was determined and worked hard to participate in the Olympic Games since he was a child. So he turned to ski jumping, which no one in China has participated in yet, and started a single-minded training camp as an amateur, which has always been a difficult and high-risk sport. The Nordics started training this sport from a 6-year-old child, and Eddie was 22 years old. He was poor and white, and the national Olympic team did not support it. It was inevitable that he would encounter cold-eyed and sharp ridicule everywhere, but Eddie smiled plainly. Keep sticking to your goals. Jumping from a high platform faces the danger of death and injury at any time. It is true that when the power of the dream is strong enough, the impossible task becomes possible. Eddie overcomes his fear and finally walks to the stage of the Olympic Games.

Because of the weak foundation, even if he qualified for the competition, he only took the last place. After Eddie successfully completed the snow jump and landed on the field, he cheered like an eagle and moved the audience. Everyone has their own goals. When their hard-earned goals are finally achieved, the sense of accomplishment and excitement is beyond words. However, other people's standards are actually flashy surfaces and have little to do with themselves. Officially, this full of positive energy infected others and made Eddie a star.

"The essence of the Olympic Games is not to win but to participate. Just as the essence of life is not the result but the experience." We all have our own goals, big or small, and I don't know how many people are still working hard and persevering. The most important thing in life is to recognize and stick to your goals and walk your own path.

    Complementary standard Taron Egerton's acting skills can be seen at the end of the film. There are many historical clips, including the press conference and the little eagle dance. It can be seen that many details have indeed worked hard. Although Uncle Wolf is a fictional character, he is also flesh and blood. At the end, the sentence "come again next year" has been seen. A few months later, there is still a manga that talks about the theme of ski jumping. It was drawn by Lun Okamoto. I only remember that the name is a monosyllabic reduplication. Besides, it is also worth watching the lonely person.

Eddie the Eagle quotes

  • Eddie Edwards: I just thought we could have a little chat about me being an Olympic ski-jumper.

    Bronson Peary: You've more chance of being a ballerina than a jumper.

    Eddie Edwards: Good one. I was juts after a few tips, really.

    Bronson Peary: Give up, there's one for free.

  • Bronson Peary: [showing Eddie the models of the different ramps] I felll in love with this sport, man. It started with this little baby. This 15 metre little vixen. You manage to land that because it's meant to hook you into the sport, right, so otherwise you wouldn't even bother trying. The 40 meter, when you stack you get bruised, which I don't have to explain to *you*.

    Eddie Edwards: [chuckles] Sorry.

    Bronson Peary: The 70 metre, you break bones and you're lucky if you can walk again. The 90 metre. The goddess. Let's just say in the Wild West we'd be measuring you for your coffin before you even reach the stairs. Never forget that, kid.
