Additional Information Bradbury is best known for his memorable and unlikely gold medal win in the men's short track 1000 metres event at the Salt Lake City 2002 Winter Olympic Games. When all four of his competitors crashed out at the final corner while jostling for the gold medal, this allowed the Australian, who was around 15 m behind with only 50 m to go, to avoid the pile-up and take the victory.--Wikipedia
