- Description
Shows a ship captain standing on the top platform of an Olympic Games podium. He is wearing a 'Romania' shirt, holding his cellphone and wearing an Olive Wreath on his head. An Olympic Games official is about to give the man a medal and tells the man behind her "We're still in the 'afterglow' phase!". In the background is a cargo ship stuck in a wall, with two men underneath with a measuring ruler. Refers to the incident in which a Romanian cargo ship rammed into a Greek hillside, near the town of Stylida, north of Athens, as the captain was speaking on his cell phone in September 2004, shortly after the conclusion of Athens hosting the 2004 Olympic Games.
