Ever wonder what it looks like to win a provincial title? Ever wonder what it looks like to lose one even?
Well you can get an unbelievable idea of it by watching this stunning video from Slaughtneil GAA in Derry.
The club captured their first ever Ulster senior football title on Sunday in the most dramatic of finales to the most thrilling of games and they also captured the piece of history magnificently on film.
From the moment Barry McGuigan carries the ball from his own left corner, to the instinctive catch, swivel, and kick from match-winner Chrissy Bradley - or Sammy as he's known - to Paudie McGuigan's absolute hounding out of the next ball, the last ball, it's all there to marvel over.
Inevitably, at the final whistle, Armagh is absolute chaos, the place erupts and Slaughtneil invade the Athletic Grounds with all the joy, euphoria and emotion that really sums up just what it means to do this with your own club.
Watch this video and tell us you don't have goosebumps.
Thanks to Mal McMullan for sending this our way.
