Paris Olympics 2024 LIVE | Paris 2024 Olympic Opening Ceremony Kicks Off Games In Unique Style | N18G

The 2024 Olympics opened in Paris in spectacular style with thousands of athletes sailing along the River Seine past lively performers on bridges, banks and rooftops in an ambitious take on an opening ceremony.

Swapping a stadium for a waterway for the first time to open the 'greatest show on earth', the near four-hour spectacle culminated in French judo great Teddy Riner and sprinter Marie-Jose Perec lighting a cauldron shaped like a hot air balloon that rose high above the Parisian sky.

yes we re all stunned at how bad the ceremony was

[pattielovecatsmell]

Felt down 😢, since saw marie antoinette(politics) and the last supper(religion) included in opening of sport game, all almost make me cry this is so so terrible and cruel ceremony opening olympic game i ve ever seen .

[Mst-bhti]

Most absurd, self indulgent (i.e. of the organizers) opening ceremony by far. "Look what we did" like the organizers "cultural mores" and "artistic talent" are the point of the Olympics. Pathetic, especially for people that are ostensibly mature adults.

Many people are ignorant because this is the marriage of Thetis and Peleus with Apollo and not the Last Supper with Jesus Christ.

[TheCkabar]

No parody of Islam or Muhammad? I hope they do that version in LA during the 2028 opening.

[amandawebb]

Stunning or stunned and mortified!! It was vile.

[saadologue]

The Hunger Games! With a side of racism and genocide.

[cousingoals]
