  • Hans-Kristian Vittinghus is a Danish men's singles player whose career spanned more than 1 1/2 decades.
    Whilst never the top player from Denmark, Vittinghus earned the respect of fans and fellow players alike through his never say die attitude, what he did on and off the court and his respect, and love for the sport
    This documentary pays tribute, in his own words, to this badminton icon laying out his entire career from how he got into badminton, his early career results, how he thought World and Olympic Champion Chen Long would never make it, his infamous diving rally against Lee Chong Wei at the 2012 All England, what it meant to become a World Champion how and whyhe ended his career, plus lots more.
    If you are a Vittinghus fan, a badminton fan, or just a sports fan in general, then you won't want to miss this one.
    A special thank you to Hans-Kristian Vittinghus for taking the time to talk with me about his career :)

    This is one of the very insightful videos that dive into a badminton athlete's life, ty hans for talking openly about harsh truths, injuries, and setbacks of such an incredible sporting journey of yours. totally enjoyed it. I may have criticized Ben for taking too long to edit this video, but now it makes sense as it includes all his old match footage that syncs with the right storytelling.
