The video depicts Chris as a little schoolboy, who gets bullied at school, berated by his angry parents, and ostracized by everyone around him - but finds solace through music and imagination. It was filmed in Los Angeles, and was directed by French director Cloé Bailly, who said: "The video is about this magic power that kids have to switch off from reality and jump into their own world." On February 25, 2020, a music video was made available on the band's official YouTube channel. On February 21, 2020, an alternative acoustic version of the song called " Champion of the World (Reimagined)" was released on the EP, Coldplay: Reimagined, along with two other Reimagined versions, " Broken" and " Cry Cry Cry". Anyway "Champion of the World" is the song that came from following the other path, and that's why Scott is a co-writer on this song."

When it was first made available for streaming, Chris posted a note on the band's social media, stating: "I want to acknowledge Scott Hutchison from Owl John, on the song "Champion of the World". The song was partly written by late Scottish singer Scott Hutchison, from the bands Frightened Rabbit and Owl John, who came up with the first bit of the riff and some of the chords from Owl John's song, "Los Angeles, Be Kind". ![]() At last, he stated: "The thing that we always thought about is that we want to try and make it an underdog anthem, that's what we set out to do and hopefully we succeeded." ![]() He said it was one of the longest to record because the band "tried lots of different things, adding lots and taking lots away", until they came back to its essential bare-bones. ![]() Will Champion revealed the song was a very important song for Everyday Life, serving as "a cornerstone, a foundation for the album". Although it didn't ever fly, he never gave up believing in it. In 97.9X WBSX's Uninterrupted Disruption track by track, Chris Martin said the song is both sort of about himself and about late Honduran man, Don Agustín López Pacheco (the same man from the track " When I Need a Friend"), who, despite being disabled by polio, spent most of his life making his own helicopter out of scrapped metal and old bits of wood for the past 50 years.
