2018 Winter Olympics Norway's Aksel Lund Svindal skier wishes his mom saw him make history
Norway's Aksel Lund Svindal made history last week, becoming the oldest skier to win a downhill gold at the Olympics, aged 35.
It was also his country's first gold medal in the event, propelling him even higher in the ranks of the most-loved Norwegian sportsmen.
The triumph could only have been made sweeter, if his mother -- who died in childbirth when Svindal was eight years old -- had been there to share it with him, he tells CNN's Christina Macfarlane.
"I can imagine that everything I've accomplished and all the moments that I've been able to experience with my dad and my brother -- that if she was there too, it would have been better," he says.
"That would have been the perfect way for sure, but that's not how life is."
Have good time for you!
