I believe the Priestess is saying the ancient rite to invoke the gods of Olympus who originally "oversaw" the games in Ancient Greece.

Hey! Guys! This is not the lighting of the Olympic Cauldron in Beijing but the Lighting of the OLYMPIC TORCH in OLYMPIA, GREECE on MARCH 2008. So you can't compare this to the 1992 Olympic Games lighting of the cauldron. ok? Plus, I am wondering what this Greek priestess is trying to say when the Olympic Torch is being lit. Any translations from Greek to English?

Rome, France!

I agree this was pretty awesome but the one in Barcelon still the best.

this is too long, but still , thnx for putting it up (Y)

The guy lighting the flame by firing a burning arrow was the best so far.

I think it was barcelona.

[imnislander2]

that was pretty awesome too, but you gotta admit that when they lit the torch in beijing last night was probably one of the best torch lightings in history.
