    My all-time favorite torch lighting was the archer shooting the flaming arrow (LA?), but this one, with the man hoisted on cables high above the crowd "running on air" around the perimeter of the stadium to get to the torch was pretty amazing...

    I thought Georgia attacked but its so hard to get straight info.

    The guys in the green suits with lights.....they were black suits 3 days before and the artist didn't like them so ordered green and got them...in 3 days!!!..for hundreds of performers if not thousands.....try that in the USA
