The greatest tradition of the ancient times has been passed down to the modern generation of our time! We should consider ourselves privileged! The Olympic Games not only promote the noble arts of sports but it also unifies the mankind around the idea of the universal sacred peace.
But you betrayed your ancestors’ culture and embraced the religion Christian which your ancestors get killed because they refuse to convert ! It is shame! I respect Ancient greece and rome! But for the fake East Orthodox greece, it is a joke!
Man I cant believe this was almost 4 years ago and we’re nearly a month to go for the lighting of the Olympic flame for the Tokyo 2020 games the Olympic Games are amazing can’t wait for Tokyo 2020
*A minha cidade da onde moro sendo Status de Celebridades no mundo todo que nos encheu de Orgulho eu assisti ao vivo essa cerimônia na época.* *2:44** A Tocha Olímpica do Rio 2016 foi acesa 👉🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥*
Respect to Greece from Your Latin Brothers in Italy. Soon we shall come back to bring you back into the Imperium! The age of the Caesars shall return!!!!!!! ROMA INVICTA!
What fun is that? The olympics have always been a showcase of some of the best a country has to offer. Not only that but Greece is the motherland...so they’re the ones we all turn to for the “kickoff”. Of course they’re gonna get some classic beauties involved.
Watching this, I get disgusted by obsessed we all have become with medals and world records and winning and the total medal count and which country is the best. It should just be about the fact that all the countries of the world have come together and that the athletes are simply taking part
The Olympics, ancient and modern, is a competition. Yes, it's about bringing the world together but everyone is coming to compete. I also think there's real comraderie and sportsmanship among the athletes themselves, it's the individual country Olympic committee members, the IOC and leader's of certain countries that have become problems but that's what happens when a competition becomes a business with many millions of dollars involved.
why am I crying watching this??? I am not that emotional. perhaps it just reminds me that we are all human and this represent unity that we should have had instead of war or fighting each other?? Anybody here can explain to me what's going on with my emotion right now..? appreciate it.
Temple of Hera brought me here-amazing that she had a Temple here before Zeus! - + races were held in her honor every 4 years! Winners called Herae-possible etymology for hero / herald?

+Fun Chuua Unffortunately .I wondered the same thing..because the torch is so beautiful but it certainly would be more if it could stay completely white :/
Several miner lamps that lit with the same flame travel with the torch. There are actually four miner lamps that are lit when the torch relay gets on the plane. Also in the host country, several mini cauldrons are lit at the end of each day during the entire course of the torch relay. Everyone one of those flames are sourced from the first flame in Greece.

I wonder why is the womenfolks given privilege in almost all ceremonies across world In my culture too, it's so. Is it because men used to do everything behind the scenes since old times , and as a matter of giving them some work gave them some face to few easier work. Another may be since they give birth to new life that being equivalent to god capacity they are thought as more god like or may be their presence is taken as more auspicious but then we too had female infanticides.
This is difficult my friend.. Cause the "big powers" took us down and their trying a lot to do not rise again, they dont want peace for human kind... 1700 years hits us with everything they can
As someone who works in IT, I appreciate the fact that the first thing they did after lighting the torch was create a backup.
LOL, COMPUTER ERA!
As someone who knows mathematics it's cool to see them light the torch at the focus of the parabolic shaped reflector thing.
Lol 😂
Redundancy and contingency make the world go round 🤙
According to officials at the London Olympics, they don't like thinking of them as 'spares' or 'backups'. To them, "They're all the same flame."
those dresses are so pretty simple and elegant
Simple, elegant those are rags
Yeah probably for you taste wrap yourself in a towel it's a gown
ancient greek clothing :)

Please don't. 😂
Please do come. We will educate you one more time and you can copy everything Greek yet again. You tried in 1940 and you know what happened to you
No thanks 😂 and we are not Latin we are Hellenes
It's like the music from the hunger games

I wish normal people could be included in these types of events.

Nicolas Juntilla, everybody in the video looked normal to me. What abnormality did tou spot?
@@stavrosnicolaou4702 They all look like clones. Does everyone in this country look exactly the same?
When will it be back in greece?
Never. Because now it's all about money, politics and a show off.
There are no immediate plans for an Olympic Games in Greece in the future.
@@RaymondHng me gustaría que regrese a Grecia!
I want come back again to Greece
...and so it begins.
Good luck fellow Brazilians.

Thanks France for creating the modern Olympics!

Tall and strong
What was the name of the thing that ignited the torch
It was a mirror
first time ever i see no dislikes..
Chris Chandy vs
This is so cool!
Я тут сейчас стою
Amazing!
Why bother go all historical, but there's a modern flute being played instead of an aulos, pan flute or lyre?
There is a lyre you just didnt see it in the video, also a modern flute does not take away anything from the ceremony.
O tanto de gente que tentou apagar o fogo não está escrito 😂😂
Must be beautiful to witness
Greece 😍
ancient Olympia beautiful culture and beautiful girls are so different with beautiful Eastern culture and beautiful Asian girls.
The torch burns to dark at the front... is that normal?
+Fun Chuua Unffortunately .I wondered the same thing..because the torch is so beautiful but it certainly would be more if it could stay completely white :/
+Junior Oliveira wow, racist.
well obviously, it's fire, and fire can burn things.

Earlier flame was ignited through sun.
Hi, I am the provost
I just like it... It's too much to explain...
...my 1. given name for DaughTers
Andrea 2nd name Luise
what if the flame goes out?
greece fails 😂
modern torches like this one have a fuel source inside
The games are suspended
Several miner lamps that lit with the same flame travel with the torch. There are actually four miner lamps that are lit when the torch relay gets on the plane. Also in the host country, several mini cauldrons are lit at the end of each day during the entire course of the torch relay. Everyone one of those flames are sourced from the first flame in Greece.
It was pele who was supposed to light but he did not due to poor health
Athens has a baseball stadium that’s been left unused since the 2004 Olympics ended because Greeks don’t play baseball
Yeah baseball does seem a bit funny to us...
🤯
Sound like Lord of the Rings
