I am proud of her. 10:54 The London Olympics is the first Olympics in which Korea has appeared in an international competition.
저 원반던지기 선수분 성함은 박봉식이네요.
London 1948 were the first Olympic Games for South Korea since they became independent from Japan
@@sydyoon 네 검색해보니 1951년에 병으로 사망하셨다고하네요. 그리고 잘못말한게 있는데 한국이 최초로 태극기를 들고 국제무대에 발을 들인건 1948 생모리츠 동계올림픽이였네요. 정부수립 이전이기 하지만 충분히 의의가 있다고 봅니다.

Amazing to see the athletes MARCHING like soldiers! Very different now...
True- but watch from 7:43 to see that the athletes weren't slaves to discipline !
They probably all WERE soldiers, or only recently discharged.
@@UWalvern0810 ㄹㅇㅋㅋ
Fascinating to see Korea participant in olympic for the 1st time.. When Korea Republic was really a union Korea Republic before the separation between North & South
Actually it was only South Korea that competed in London 1948 and it wasn't until Munich 1972 when North Korea competed in their first Olympic Games, Korea was divided between North and South in 1945 after the defeat of Japan
When King George IV open the ceremony, never imagine her daughter Queen Elizabeth II would open too in 2012
Diego Fonseca don’t forget 76
@@goldeneve And his son in law opened Melbourne in 1956
Well I think he expected her to open it in 76,and Prince Phillip to do it in 56. 2012 was a world away from 1948.
George VI
George VI not IV
Think about the time: 3 years after WWII, India: A young independent country, Germany: Not there, because of the war the country didn't exist. London laid still in ruins after the war...
Also Germany was disqualified from the olympics due to WW2.
--------------- `London laid still in ruins after the war...` pfff ... Really? And what about Dresden with 120,000 dead?
@super dude no Soviet Union.
@@nusratparveen82 So was Austria, Prussia and Hungary after WW1 and Japan after WW2.
@@sandozpop6017 It's called "war' guys! War! What about the blitzkreig against London? W-A-R!!
I love how they all kept the steps aligned while marching which is obvious since it was only three years past the war
you were going to be shamed online if you marched out of step before!!
So the British once again had the right to be proud when the City of London, the capital of England, had the honor of hosting the Summer Olympics three times in 1908, 1948 and 2012. It was wonderful. England has organized the Olympics in the most thoughtful and effective way. Unbelievable. Congratulations.
Cheers to the Brits for putting on an Olympics in 1948, when they didn't lift all food rationing until 1954!
The running commentary, violin and harp flourishes during the women's discus throws sounds positively quaint.
Harrison Dillard the 100m champion passed away a couple of days ago aged 96.
Back when the olympics wasn't about the money and deals but rather the sportmanship and nations participating.
6:26 The King proclaims the games open.
The King (in 1948): "I proclaim open the Olympic Games of London, celebrating the 14th Olympiad of the modern era."
The Queen (his daughter, in 2012): "I declare open the Olympic Games of London, celebrating the 30th Olympiad of the modern era."
Don't forget 1976! She is queen of Canada as well.
@Victor Marquez She WAS the Queen of Canada 😢
WW2 put the Olympics on hold. Things were run on a shoestring because the postwar cleanup was still going, earning it the nickname "austerity Olympics". Still, everyone must have been glad to have the Olympics back. Germany and Japan were banned, and I don't think they would have been popular anyway. Japan was a bit upset about it, but Germany took it quietly.
It made sense for both Germany and Japan to not compete in London 1948 since both countries were still under allied occupation
@@AdamTheMan1993 they wouldn’t have felt welcome anyway. Best all around for them not to come.
The. images. are awesome but some one may take over the task of editing the colors and giving them their balance, this is in it self a treasure
Is it really 1948?? It's quality is so high!!
I know right!
its because its been digitally restore in HD
This video it's sooo bad...
+Javi Vázquez but it's 1948
+Javi Vázquez ????
Let the games begin!
beautiful to see such diversion and 'new domains' Pakistan, Canada, India and South-Africa competing in their first Olympics.
I think Canada actually debuted before this one
@@depressedjaguarsfan5676 so did India

Korea !
Could that be John Snagge doing the commentary?

Out of the 58 countries gathered at this Olympic Games 57 of those countries dipped their flag in the opening ceremony as a salute to the king of England. The United States was the ONLY country to hold its banner true the entire time. When asked why the flag bearer of the United States said “these colors bow to no earthly king.” Greatest Olympic moment in history.
Rather embarrassing than a great olympic moment. Typical US arrogance, the UK and US were tight allies during the war!
America will never bow to anybody
They saved almost all the antics from Berlin olympics.
"Antics"? The contents of the Olympic Ceremonies are prescribed in the Olympic Charter so there is slight variance over the years.
"He's come a long way for this....oh, into the net."
Love the commentary.
And that was the last time Argentina was ever cheered at a British sporting event...
71 years ago.

Awesome history
4:46 the awkward Pakistans marching is hilarious

Lastima Que Los Juegos De Londres Se Cancelaron en 1944 Y Lo Pospusieron Hacia 1948
Is there a clip showing Peru at the London 1948 Games? (I'm Peruvian)
Sadly there doesn't appear to be any. Shame because this is the only time we won a gold medal (Edwin Vásquez is a legend)

I have not been to London before
Olympians during those times were well disciplined. Look the way they march, like military.
Most of them probably WERE military.

11:46 ....Wait, Austria is there, but not Germany?!?
Oh, yeah. This was back in the day when Austria was depicted as a victim of German aggression. (Never mind that they cheered their annexation and heartily persecuted their Jews!)
Wel now Austria is basically 🇩🇪
So is it still basically it’s own country now or still owned by Germany?
@@joshxmuhozi Of course, Austria is independent and not part of Germany. But we share a common language and a similar culture.
-------------------- Who were the "Jews"?
@@ruhri0411 Why does Austria share a similar culture with Germany at all.
In 2022 someone has to answer this question for me in the 21st Century.
I like how women try to be elegant throwing discus.

So many countries were missing from the Parade of Nations
9:29 Is Indonesia Flag?

Monaco actually since Indonesia didn't compete in London 1948
The big result screen seems to be a human driven digital matrix display.
