Opening Ceremony of London 2012 Olympic Games



London 2012 Olympics Games officially opened on July 27, 2012 local time at the Olympic stadium. The opening ceremony which cost about 400 billion rupiahs occurred very festive and luxurious. Olympics that followed about ten thousand athletes representing 204 countries is the thirtieth Olympics games. Oak tree that rises above the grassy mound in the opening ceremony was made of steel and fiberglass. But the grass around it is a real grass and wild flowers adorn the stage. Voldemort is controlled by cables and ropes.

Another interesting thing when Queen Elizabeth II jumped from a helicopter with Daniel Craig (James Bond) using a parachute display the British flag. But do you know that Queen Elizabeth II who jumped it is not the real queen? Yap! She was a stuntman, Gary Connery.


The Legendary British football player, David Beckham drove a boat that delivered the Olympic torch. And I admitted he seemed absolutely attractive.


The most amazing to me is the fire that ignited into a circle and then a huge torch which can close like a flower bud. Later became a big torch.

WAIT!
There was one more, a fireworks show at the London 2012 Olympic stadium seemed really amazing and too bad if left out.

    Voldemort appeared for the purpose of injuring the kids in the hospital and when the children were screaming, Mary Poppins came to rescue children who are frightened. (so British..)

    I enjoyed the fireworks too :)
