BEIJING is still the best both in opening and closing ceremony....it will be remembered forever...they showed their creativity,great effort and unity...im not a Chinese but i saluted their love and D-D-CATION towards their culture...
what they did was truly amazing...without the help of those WELL KNOWN celebrities/singers yet they still managed to AWE the world...well done TALENTED,CREATIVE CHINA.
Si
this is the best closing ceremonies that i can recall
i remember this so vividly. i was 9 during this Olympics event. never forget the light men of China
Will you marry me and move to China together?
Let's see what happens in 2022, Beijing Winter Olympic games
HAHA NOT FUNNY

@Aryan enjoy it
It will be no 1
Watching this now exactly 10 year later is nostalgic, one of the best Olympics, every person involved to make it happen back then should be proud of himself/herself.👍☺

Sí señor!
An incredible and perfect inauguration neither London nor Rio have overcome it.
both tried hard to make this huge event spectacular and we should appreciate their hard work
China have totally raise the bar for the olympic ceremony......
Not so many countries can afford Olympics nowadays...
This funny , the comments section is funny , Some people even think the fire work is fake. Wtf hahha
Beijing 2008 and now it's Beijing 2022
that is winter Olympic in 2022 .
中华民族从来都是包含了各民族的多元文化汇成，包括满汉族之内的各民族的独特文化积累和融合才构成了让每个中国人为之自豪的华夏文明，（我是汉族）很开心看到您的发言。
Still the best ever
Asakura YT always will be
All the ceremonies are different, and that's what makes the Olympics so special. Athens showed off their history, Beijing showed off Chinese power, and London showed off their culture. The Olympics truly brings everyone together!
Looks like what makes up a cellular system! Damn cool!
5:36 that camera angle is amazing looking down on the ceremony from the olympic flame itself!
i guess some say that beijing closing ceremony is boring cuz they can not fully understand the culture. i am a chinese so i can understand it and gain a lot of fun from it. for me this one is so touching as actually i can rarely see those traditonal performances nowadays. it is always good to remind people of their own culture and to cherish it. in my opinon there's no point to compare it with london ceremony as they are based on different cultures and history.
china's opening and closing ceremony was the best and the greatest in the history of the olympic games. i salute u Beijing China for hosting a spectacular event. AMAZING!!!!!
Pretty proud:)
You dont have to speak it out? can u just keep it in ur mind, these kind of words make us Chinese look stupid as fk
iZzy Yue what's wrong with saying that you're proud?
+iZzy Yue wtf? it's great to be proud of your country
SUPER GALING!!! I keep watching this over and over. and it never cease to amaze me
Bejing set the bar so high for future opening & closing ceremonies
I agree, the most beatiful ceremony, ever seen in the world!!!!!!!!!!
This was the first Olympic games I remember since I was born, so I consider this my first Olympics.
Very marvelous,good job.
Just finished watching the Tokyo Olympics 2021, Beijing is still the best.
WATCH IT LIVE----
ROCK
fantastic event..thanks 4 the upload
Well done London for a fantastic Paralympic opening ceremony!
This was amazing.
What a fantastic ceremony!
The point of the ceremonies is to highlight the history and culture of the host city. Every country and city has a different history and future. All of the ceremonies are special because they united the world under one roof. People need to get over the fact that London wasn't as spectacular as Beijing! Who knows if any ceremony will ever beat Beijing's! However, we need to stay supportive because as Pierre de Coubertin said, "The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
I think that Great Britain is so much more than music, I was hoping to see a little more of history and tribute to its culture and people, but their closing ceremony was more like 10% tribute to their culture and 90% tribute to their current celebrities
London didn't fail. It got huge praise and after all it was showing the world the history from where it is being hosted. I think it's an amazing idea. Brilliant. Enjoy the games guys and goodluck.
wonderful vedeo . i enjoyed watching,i wish you good luck!
London and Beijing were both good in different ways. to say one was better than the other is not the most mature way to look at it. they were both great ceremonies in their own way, Beijing was grand with incredible colours and fireworks and CGI special effects. London was a celebration of music and historical industry with soul filled references to the youth.
the uk i mean!! the best of the best!!!!!!!!!!! such a luxury !!! we are very fortunate to to see such and amazing show!
Amazing
compared to Beijing, london was a school play, the have so little culture and imagination.
+Paolo Budiel We [UK] have deep history and culture, sadly, most of it can not be displayed in this form, although I feel they ought to have tried, no less, this is why we ended up what we did...we also spent only 9 billion, China spent 40 billion. However, London was okay and a huge huge event. Of course it's not what it ought to have been, but everybody knows China does everything better than everybody else and they have very very deep culture of which can be called upon and elegantly, effortlessly displayed in this form.
Compared to China, every other was a school play. Lol.
+The Anti-Theist TRUTH
+The Anti-Theist Why do you think the Chinese spent 40 billion on the Games and London a fraction of that cost? Because London isn't as insecure as Beijing was. London is a world class city with or without hosting the Olympics, it didn't need to spend so lavishly when it already had the infrastructure in place as well as a lot of the venues.Beijing may have outdone London in terms of scale (and let's not put the UK down here since China is a much bigger country) but London was better in terms of heart and soul.
+Tom Riddle LOL let's not do the comparison by putting down each other. If you're talking about "heart and soul", please search the history and culture of Beijing and comment again. I am sure Beijing wasn't only better than London in terms of scale and population. But yeah I would believe infrastructure and many other aspects in London are still better.
+LEE KP Historically, China is the only country who earns money on this Olympic game
I'm British/Chinese and I am proud to be one. I loved the Beijing's closing ceremony and I think there's nothing wrong with the London Closing Ceremony, I really enjoyed it, yes its more like a concert but Britain has a popular music industry and it is part of the culture, not to mention, high tea, comedy and the respect of the deceased singers I loved it. But I really wish they do a better job on the opening ceremony though, I don't mind the others but the phone texting part was just ridiculous
Go China! You rocked this, you should be very proud!
The Hindhead Bypass was getting built that time in 2008 ready for London 2012
Every single Olympics in history did a great job. None of them are the best, they are equal. The olympics is to bring us together, not to split us up. You even see athletes becoming friends even if they were against each other. So, lets become. "One world." Not, one country and let Rio have their turn.
WOW! UNBELIEVABLE!
wel done china we r proud of our best friend in world and ur good performance in medels its ur nation's that win so much madels.
thanks for all visitors and viewers in world GOOD LUCK for ALL.
please be nice to other , you wil bring peace and joy to your self.
every ceremony every country are different , I happy with all .
I love London... but watching this opening ceremony did hurt...
I am truly amazed at the Beijing's performance at the Olympics...they used the same person for every sport.
always look on the bright side of life
beijing opening was beautifully done !!! cant wait to see what london has to show!!! XD
of course ，it is still standing .it took so much building it !

I agree !
i was 8 when olympics in beiging happened, but i still remember a part of the closing ceremony: there was a lot of people with electronic violins (i guess) singing something like "beogi beiging"
did anybody know anout that?
I watched this 1 month before finishing Kindergarden
donde puedo verlo completo?
“My memory of the Beijing Olympics has not changed. It is a fake smile, an elaborate costume party with the sole intention of glorifying the country … Through authoritarian power a country can possess many things, but it cannot bring joy or happiness to its people.” Ai Weiwei
Beijing showed the world, huge numbers of people doing as they are told in unison. GB showed individual freedom and creativity. It depends what floats your boat, both are pretty representative.
the ik ceremony the best so far!!! will be very hard to see anithing like that again!
Hey thanks for uploading so beautiful videos of beijing 2008 opening and closing ceremony but it would be great if you will upload the hd version of beijing 2008 opening and closing ceremony and do u hav the complete beijing 2008 opening and closing ceremony? . plzz upload if u can thanks a lot!
Good
Seriously?
Why can't we all just enjoy the performances? Instead of badmouthing each other's ceremonies and comparing them in a detrimental way, why not appreciate all the time and effort it must have taken to create these portrayals, and realize that each and every host nation has brought and will bring something new to the table? Isn't that what the Olympics are about--bringing people together? It's people who argue over such trivial things that make the world such a hard place to live in...
I think these were the best olympics=D
totally i agree with you
I don't really see why ppl are comparing ceremonies, coz (yes, I'm british), our ceremony was truly british and china's ceremony was amazing too. :)
yo me pregunto cuanto dinero habran invertido los chinos en todo ese espectaculo...😍🇨🇳
Billones de Yuanes
Does anyone know the name of the girl drummer band at point 5.14? In the closing ceremony the played "jasmine flower" (maybe), i liked it very much!
Cool
The Beijing one looked like something outta Dr Seuss
london well done. BEIJING AWESOME, SPECTACULAR, AMAZING!!!! can't top this yet...:)
My favs were The Forging Of the Olympic Rings and Seven Athletes and the Lighting of the Beacons.
Lindo amei foi muito criativo
I remeber seeing this on TV :D
agreed, even though i was hoping it was gonna be ok, i doubted it...
This is the plus side to human labor
Where is the rest of it? It cut off at the end!
the BEST
I'll take it!
Those big horn cars looked like something out of a Dr. Suess book.
why did you have to cut out some scenes?
That was the point - it was supposed to be chaos / pandemonium. Im not british but I watched the ceremony on the BBC. They explained certain connections / references to various authors like John Milton & P. L. Travers. I guess you get a different impression with actual British commentary.
omg "fun musical celebration".. u made me lol hard on that one
wher can i see full video ?
BEST
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE UPLOAD THE FULL CLOSING CEREMONY????? please please please
