The Minneapolis Miracle

This video shows what’s known as “The Minneapolis Miracle”. During a divisional playoff game in the NFL, the Minnesota Vikings (Purple) were down to the New Orleans Saints (White & Gold). In a last effort heave, Stefon Diggs (the receiver) makes the catch, and lands in a miraculous state, allowing him to take it down and win the game out of seemingly nowhere. This went down as one of the most miraculous and exciting finishes to a playoff game ever.

In this recording, done on presumably a phone camera, the impact of the building can be heard. While phone mics are okay, it is hard to contain tens of thousands of fans screaming all at once. The result is almost a static like sound in the background, while the sounds of the fans directly around the camera are quite discernable. This really adds to the level of excitement that someone feels from watching this video, as you almost feel you are right there in the stadium.
