01:02To thank him for the inspiration and the strength he brings us all.
01:07The hope he brings to everybody.
01:09The whole company is so proud of what Yulo has achieved.
01:16For GMA, one of our core values is excellence.
01:21And he excelled that.
01:23We're so proud.
01:24For Carlos, everything that happens to him is like a dream
01:29after the historic victory in the Paris Olympics.
01:33In the Olympics, I just want to win a medal.
01:37And the medal itself, I've been dreaming of it since I was 12 years old.
01:43I'm so grateful for my journey.
01:46Carlos told us how he felt about his floor exercise routine.
01:51Before I started on the floor, I saw that I was 14.9 plus the score of my competitor.
01:57I was like, no, I'll just focus on myself.
02:01And then I showed what I practiced.
02:04I did it.
02:05I'm so happy.
02:08But I didn't know that I would go gold.
02:12It was even harder for Carlos to get a gold medal in the vault.
02:17One of the people who helped him here was a Filipino-British gymnast,
02:21Jake Jarman of Team Great Britain.
02:24He considers him a close friend.
02:27In my second vault, I had a hard time.
02:30He wasn't consistent.
02:33So I asked Jake to teach me.
02:35When I was in training camp.
02:38And yeah, I learned his technique.
02:43I told him to teach me.
02:45Jake agreed.
02:47Yeah.
02:49Carlos has a lot of people in his career.
02:52He also gave a message to his Japanese coach,
02:55Munehiro Kugimiya,
02:57and to the people who helped him to get used to Japan.
03:00Thank you for your support.
03:03Thank you for your support.
03:09What does that mean?
03:11Thank you for your support.
03:13And from the heart,
03:15I thank you all.
03:17Carlos is very happy about his return.
03:20He bonded with other athletes from Team Philippines.
03:24I'm really excited to see AJ.
03:26I know he had a hard time on this journey.
03:30And I'm super proud of what he did.
03:32I really respect our athletes.
03:37And they inspire me.
03:41Carlos did not expect a grand homecoming parade.
03:44Just now, they are preparing for the 2028 Olympics.
03:49If we can, we can do it.
03:51I want him not to go alone,
03:53but to have a team of four other gymnasts.
03:56So I'm trying to look now for a foreign coach.
04:00On the return of the golden hero of gymnastics in the country,
04:03many are hoping that this will be the golden era
04:07not only of Philippine gymnastics,
04:09but also of Philippine sports.
