So proud of you Arshad Nadeem! Pakistan needs more of this ❤
As a Pakistani-Canadian I cannot begin to express how monumental his gold medal is! Unlike Canada, the Pakistani government invests next to nothing in sporting facilities or talent development. This man won gold based on his sheer will-power, determination, strength and perseverance! Despite the scarcity of resources and the poverty he endured, Arshad Nadeem won! This man should be a source of inspiration for us all ❤ No matter how dire our circumstances are, we can all strive to become the best versions of ourselves ❤ Thank you Arshad Nadeem 👏🏽
As a Canadian we won 7 Gold as a pak Canadian I am at 8 Gold.. cheers
AaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaAAAAAAAA cheetah 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰(love you too boo🇨🇦)
Congratulations Pakistan
Bro looked like he was taking a warm up throw 😂
Notice how CBC intentionally did not want to mention "Pakistani" athlete due to their hate for Islam. Had this been any other non-Muslim country they would have been drooling. The double standards are endless with these European immigrants.
Well done tonall of these gentlemen but ARSHAD KILLED IT!
jesus if that guy had some athletic ability and some more training he could throw it off the grid.
Subhan Allah, Al Hamdulilah.
سبحان اللہ، الحمدللہ۔
Practice for years, throwing a spear. For nothing
Punjabi ❤️❤️❤️
Congrats Pakistan brothers big S/O from your brother in CA 🇨🇦
As a Canadian Pakistani I am proud for this great achievement by this Pakistani Olympian
Viva brother nation of Pakistan!
So proud of Nadeem 🇵🇰 . Love from India 🇮🇳 ❤ I saw his performance in Tokyo 2020 and there’s huge improvement. THATS will and determination 💪
The pakistani guy was much more solid than the indian
As a Canadian I respectfully submit that this is the story of the 2024 Olympic Games!
Well played Neeraj ❤
Nadeem’s story is straight out of a book. Grew up in a mud hut essentially with a hard working family who couldn’t afford to even buy a javelin. So he went and made some himself out of wood and practiced with it. No fancy training facilities. Just pure dedication and then goes to the Olympics and wins the gold and breaks the record. I’m Proud Pakistani/Canadian after this win!
Well done Arshad.With hardly any support from the system…..this man has has set a new record on his own efforts.
يا علي مدد!
Pakistan: 1
India : 0
Congratulations Pakistan
Pakistan won a gold medal after 40 years and any medal after 32 years
Last time Pakistan won a gold medal in 1984 when our field hockey won it
This is the first individual gold medal for Pakistan in history
For the first part of his career he had no one to support as my home country’s sports and athletics boards are corrupt and Government doesn’t really bother supporting athletes
It was only after Tokyo Olympics 2021 that Arshad was recognised at national level and finally government invested on him but still it wasn’t much investment as compared to his competitors so what he has achieved is just legendary
Hats off to this man ❤️
Many of my friends here in 🇨🇦 are congratulating me and I am loving it 🙏🏼
这哥们的助跑实在是太差了，可以说完全凭力量破世界纪录。
Congratulations to Pakistan, not only did you break the world record and win gold, he threw it so calm and easy unlike the others who tripped & fell
why isnt tom brady there
Congrats, this whole is so beautiful. It really does take a village.
That’s a Big Strong Dude
Very good Arshad Nadeem
