Count down from 60 sec of the start of the opening ceremony By the spectacular drum performance!
These are the rows and rows of Chearn and Ha Dynasty
It was absolutely amazed and awesome with the drums and the count down.
I cried at the song of China flag entrance, sang by a girl.
Rising of the China PRC Flag, I was absolutely moved.
Representing 3000 students of Confucians and the start of Chinese Word formation in the Chun Chow Warlord period.
The dancing of the words and printing showed different Chinese period of the word "harmony" "Wo"
Sarah Brightman and Mr Lau sang the English and Chinese version of the Olympic theme song of 2008, "One World, One Dream"
Children's faces from all over the world are collected over 1 year to dance under the Globe as the theme song was being sang.

Fantastic scence ever played on earth with very postive message for mankind and our future, almost from another planet, not this world, a dream. People seeing these and were not impressed should quickly see a psychiatrists to check if there is too much negative energy and hatred in their soul.
Wow !!! Thanks Veronica!!
Did you watch the opening ceremony live????
I did record it and save it as my collection of treasured videos!!
Hey the pictures are from New York Times!!
Hi hi Anonymous! I agree totally with you!!! Oh, so we are like most people: think that this is the BEST OPENING Ever in past Olympics!!!
Indeed, like a dream, NOT from this world. In fact, it showed many old historical times of China, some thousands of years ago (the drums were from the earliest dynasty Ha!!
