Swimmer Tom Dean secured Britain's fourth gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics in the 200 metre freestyle on Tuesday.
Not only that, he did so six months after contracting COVID-19 for a second time, which left the 21-year-old athlete struggling to walk up stairs. It was a truly moving moment, but the celebrations weren't just happening in Tokyo.
Thousands of miles away from the Tokyo Aquatics Centre, in his mum's back garden in Maidenhead, Berkshire in England, Dean's friends and family watched intently as the swimmer inched his way to victory and, as you can imagine, the screaming and cheering got louder and more intense the closer the final stretch came.
The moment was captured by BBC South sports editor Lewis Coombes in a video that shows the truly joyful gathering of family and friends celebrating Dean's win.
