The greatest Olympic Cauldron lighting ever – or was it?

Paralympic archer Antonio Rebollo Liñán pulled off the breathtaking feat of igniting the cauldron with a flaming arrow. Discover the story behind this unforgettable ceremony and its lasting impact on Olympic history as we question whether it actually happened the way most people remember it.

The Tour De France Explained in Animation
Doesn’t matter - like you said - it’s theatre - and Barcelona pulled it off better than anyone to date.
It worked perfectly. The arrow was supposed to fly over the cauldron and it did. All the Spanish media explained it the next day of the opening.
Clearly, the footage of the arrow outside the stadium is not the same night as the opening ceremony. You can clearly see that the cauldron was surrounded by darkness in the ceremony opening. The footage outside the stadium clearly shows much brighter surroundings. Not the same night, and how the flame ignited is another clue, but I let you guys figure that one out.
'Close enough to ignite the gases'? I doubt it even did that. It's more likely the Olympic flames was simply turned on at the appropriate time.
Considering the strong wind that night, it's almost impossible to generate a flammable gas mixture at that height away from the cauldron. Secondly, if the cauldron flame was ignited by the arrow, the flame should travel from where the arrow was to the cauldron. But the fact is not. What I'm thinking is the cauldro was ignited by some device in the cauldron itself, had nothing to do with the arrow.
Mto bom
I'm not sure if that flew by close enough to fire up the gases. To me it seems that the gas lights up from the bottom to the top instead of from where the arrow passed by
Yes, I can't agree with u more. And, the flame was not travel from where the arrow passed to the cauldron, oppositely, the flame was rose from bottom to top.
I think this is what happens when you ignite inflammable gasses (like methane, CH4). The fire is an optic effect generated by heat, you saw it coming from the bottom possibly because that's where the combustion built up heat sooner. You might want to ask a physicist or an engineer tho
He remains a wonderful man, better than the people we saw at the Paris opening, and we do not know whether they are men or women
again an online bad faith, I'm 100% sure you don't know who this man is if you don't know the 2 people in Paris next to the cauldron
You should watch the '92 opening ceremonies - like 2012 it's about the pandemic. Very creepy.
was not a trick or deception, it was done that way on purpose. The technicians did not want it to fall directly into the cauldron although the athlete was willing to throw it inside as he has commented on more than one occasion. Just passing it through the gas jet was enormously difficult and meritorious.
Beautiful.., the aim was to light the Olympic Cauldron which the arrow did
It actually hit Diego Soccoro, 19, who was outside the stadium. He survived his injures and kept a small fragment of the arrow in his chest as a momento.
So nobody’s gonna ask where the arrow landed?
I just assumed it sailed over and killed someone in the parking lot.
lol 😂
😂
Maybe they were firemen outside the stadium extinguished the arrow for fire prevention...
He still lit the thing. Who cares if it went in.
Gold medal
well, it still the best and legendary lighting of the cauldron ever!
2024 Baguette 🥖 Olympics brought me here Ahh 1992 great times, even if it was staged, so much better than the trash ceremony from 2024 🥐
Did you wake this morning and think, "I know, I will be a cunt today"
BS
Doesn't matter if it landed in or lit the cauldron. It was an epic moment.
Yeah
yeah no. an illusion is in itself never as epic as something real
@@scabento13and it was totally real.
ŠUPČINO, NE KVARI PREMIJERU !
Okay about the arrow but how about the flame? Nothing burst into flames or did they have people waiting to catch the flame?
That shit went in
Uhhhh I hate to break it to you, but you can see the far side of the cauldron when it lights and the arrow disappears and doesn’t reappear on the far side of the cauldron. I’m pretty sure that it went in. 🔥 Either way, it was an awesome shot, and I remember watching it live and being blown away.
Did you watch the video?
@roryds1532 Umm, did you watch it. Clearly, the footage of the arrow outside the stadium is not the same night as the opening ceremony. You can clearly see that the cauldron was surrounded by darkness in ceremony opening. The footage outside the stadium clearly shows much brighter surroundings. Not the same night, and how the flame ignited is another clue, but I let you figure that one out.
AI Voiceover 😬
Next time just have the guy do the narration in French. I can't understand him anyways. Also, have him read faster, use more technical jargon, and change the title to "The Tour de France Explained in French to People Who Already Understand it".
I could understand rhe narrator bery well through his French accent.
Your animation reminds me of the great work "Les Triplettes de Belleville" ~ the greatest full-length animated Tour de France farce ever created. Not sure if it's on CZcams (free); it could be!
If you've never stood beside the road in France, among new friends from France, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, England, Spain, DO IT. I was lucky: lived near Genève, Suisse 1997-2010 and could bike to the courses nearby; Col de la Faucille, Joux-Plane, Morzine, Grand Bornand, Col de Rommes, etc. And(!) Tour de Suisse, Romandie, etc... Do it!
Masterly animation
Spectators getting in the way on the road is outrageous. Very dangerous for the athletes.
I've been a road cyclist for almost a decade now. I know a lot about racing and follow professional races every year. However, I still come back to this video once in a while, I really don't know why. I simply find it relaxing and it reminds me of the beauty of beginning to follow a sport as life changing as cycling. To those who are watching this video for the first time and are entering the world of cycling, good luck in your journey!
I am now French
Love this. Thank you for this video!
I think that historians should examine more this incident that led to Rommel's hesitation to proceed to crush Dunkirk all because of a tank regiment that apparently displayed skill that alarmed him to relent.
❤you Joe❤ thank you for guiding me and all of us ❤🎉
“Cracking” is called bonking
Mom told me several times in life ,," there are several people u dont ever want to get in a fight with cause youll get your arse kicked, an Englishman, an Irishma, a farmer or a farmers son. A korean, n a couple others. Good advice
This is the Frenchest video I have ever seen on youtube. 👍🏽

Good if brief
Well done
This is very interesting. Now I better understand the favourite hobby of my husband. Cycling and watching TDF.
I think fat bikes are best! 😊
Great video. Very illustrative to learn lot of things I didn’t know before, like uniform colors, wind strategies and some other things. Thank 10:20
