While Brian is in Japan for FaOI, here's a short clip (from a few weeks ago) of Brian talking about his 2007 World Title. It's part of French channel W9 program "Mon Trophée, Ma Victoire" (which means "My Trophy, My Victory") showing high-class French athletes talking about their most precous victory, while the clip show the moment wth snaps of the athletes talking.

Translation:
Voice-Off: "Now he's the figure skating world champion, something that last happened 42 years ago..."
Brian: "When I went on the ice, I felt ill. I barely slept the night before, I was so stressed for the World Champion title, I put a lot of pressure on myself. But this aside, I did want to give it all. So I went on the ice and I was like a warrior, a fighter. The quad was my first jump. It was an element I could do... but the cost for the slightest mistake is high. The biggest part was done, I knew I could do the rest of the program. I give it all, I felt good, I enjoyed every single moment, every second. That's all.
When I finish my program, I know I'm the world champion.
Once I go on the podium, I get the medal, the Marseillaise... really, it's such a good feeling. It's an unforgetable moment, the best to live.
This medal is very important because it doesn't represent just one competition... It's my whole life."
