Side Note: This video was put together using several video segments. The organizers had the men and women events alternate at some point. There was this time when the men's event started, the Swedish National Anthem was played, while the camera was focused on the female athletes, and then they focused on the men, so, I respectfully decided not to clip the video segment showing the men while the Swedish National Anthem was being played. End of Side Note.
