The ceremony of the London Olympics started and ended in spectacular fashion. Much of the beginning was related to the industrial revolution of post war England. Chimney's rose from the ground in amazing form. Bicycle riders work brightly illuminated wings that glowed beautifully in the dark..The queen had somewhat of a starring role along side Daniel Craig who repised his James Bond character sent to protect her majesty. She along with Daniel, jumped out of a helicopter and into the stadium with british coloured parachute's. Rowan Atkinson played his part as the comical Mr Bean who acted out the part of the famous running scene in 'Chariots Of Fire'. Towards the end, David Beckham travelled in a multi-coloured illuminating speed boat which he drove most of the way, that carried the torch through the River Thames to the Olympic venue. From there he past the torch to Sir Steve Redgrave who ran into the stadium and past it on to several young aspiring olympians who then went on to light the actual coldron. This was and outstanding event that was master crafted by british movie director, Danny Boyle. It's believed that the event was watched by 1 billion people world wide.
