0:00 / 1:45
Marsch des Ersten Herzgrenadier-Regiments, Op. 65
June 7, 2026. Denmark vs Ukraine. Four days before the World Cup.
In the 65th minute, Christian Eriksen collapsed. He has an ICD in his chest — an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, fitted after his cardiac arrest at Euro 2020. On June 7, it fired. Eriksen briefly lost consciousness. Then he regained it. He walked to the ambulance. The entire stadium stood.
The next day, he was home.
His statement: "Receiving a shock from my ICD has had a major impact on both me and my family, but I want to reassure everyone that this was a different situation from what happened in 2021. I am feeling good, and my recovery has already started. My ICD did exactly what it was designed to do: protect me when I needed it. For now, my focus is on recovering, spending time with my family, going on vacation and playing football with my children."
Performed as a Prussian military march: brass ensemble, snare drum, bass drum, strict 2/4 regimental cadence. The ICD firing treated as a military order executed with perfect discipline. Eriksen walking to the ambulance treated as a general crossing the field after victory. The standing ovation treated as a full regiment at attention. Total sincerity.
Lyrics
Marsch des Ersten Herzgrenadier-Regiments, Op. 65
(trumpet fanfare, snare drum roll — 2 bars)
In the sixty-fifth minute, the order was given
The regiment in his chest snapped to attention
One charge, delivered with mechanical precision
The general opened his eyes — a command decision
March! The heart has answered!
March! The duty done!
Across the field of Copenhagen
The general walks — the battle won!
March! Ten thousand soldiers standing!
At attention, as one!
The ICD has fired — on schedule!
Left, right — the march goes on!
He rose to his feet, the medics flanked him
A regimental escort, parade-ground standard
The ambulance waited at full attention
The crowd rose up — a standing commendation
March! The heart has answered!
March! The duty done!
Across the field of Copenhagen
The general walks — the battle won!
March! Ten thousand soldiers standing!
At attention, as one!
The ICD has fired — on schedule!
Left, right — the march goes on!
He is home with his family
The ICD filed its report
Mission accomplished — full debrief complete
One soldier, one order, one court!
Left — right — left!
