Olympic dad goes viral for NSFW interview after daughter's historic gold medal

It’s hard to imagine any parent not being over the moon if their child won an Olympic gold medal, but few could match the enthusiasm of Zoi Sadowski-Synnott’s father Sean – if you’re judging by their willingness to drop expletives on live television.

After Zoi captured New Zealand’s first-ever gold at the Winter Olympics, a reporter asked Sean how proud he was, to which he paused for a brief moment before laying out what, to him, seemed obvious.

“I’m pretty f—ing excited, to be honest,” he said.

No one’s calling you a liar, Sean.
