QATAR 2022



[Flubadoodoo]

i was like right to the left of the horse near the top, and you cant see it clearly in the vid but the horse's foot actually slipped for a moment, i was surprised by how he didnt fall off, if i was there i would've jumped off :)

[almihera]

one of the most beautiful videos i have ever seen

[SharedJoy]

Heart breaking.

I'm not Qatari, but the prince and his horse are the symbol of both the Arabian horse and the people.

It shows the courage, bravery and pride.

[mewsao]

[2100549]

[jann624]

[BabyClara07]

If this is what Doha has to offer...... then I look forward to them hosting the football world cup in 2018, a nation and a region that should be truly celebrated

[TheMalou10]

WHY!? no computer MAGIC!!! and forgive me CANADA 2010 winter game opening is very boring! KABOOM!!!SUPERMAN didnt came out when the ice crystals r incomplete.see, the torchlight is dull!!!

[apple123456789LOL]

[Braddah06]

[worldagency]

Handsome Prince!

[MohammedSuleman89]

waoooo...love Q ATAR!!

[Turbotronic1]

Everyone can say this opening ceremony was the best, or Beijing's was the best, etc. What matters and more importantly what makes an opening ceremony truly successful is the pride and emotion it instills in the citizens of the host country, and as a Qatari, in my opinion this has been the most successful ceremony ever because of what I felt during that moment which was and still is to this very day incomparable to any ceremony in sport's history.

My hope is that all nations experience this.

[nooriqatar]

Words do not reflect the extent of my love and proud for you, Qatar I LOVE QATAR AND I WILL ALWAYS DO

[GamerFreak186]

[iman198517]

[misunderstood2020]

lighting the torch was the best part..it was breathtaking!!

[vibaljr]

This is still better than the Beijing Olympics!

[daehaneul]

@vibaljr The 2008 Olympics still the most extravagant event...Including its opening...

[1coolchick93]

[q8tisuperwomen]

[makrorah]

it was a creat opening ceremony.i want to tell you it was rainy day and the Staircase was wet but he was Courageous.i love hem so match.he make Qatar proud.

[markpasayanmd]

one of the best opening ceremony for a sporting event... a testament to the unity among Muslims and Non-Muslims...

Truly the best cauldron-lighting ceremony in the history of the ASIAN GAMES!!! impressive...

But my top pick remains the SYDNEY OLYMPICS in 2000... that was breath-taking... water and fire came together...

[markpasayanmd]

the 2006 ASIAN games is my second pick... kudos to the horse!

and my 3rd pick is the 1992 BARCELONA OLYMPICS... precision and accuracy....

the biggest disappointmend is the 1996 ATLANTA OLYMPICS... yeah you got Ali lighting the flame... but what the heck is that flying ball on a string???? the US could have tought of something more....

[mahalkong]

I have goose pumps every time i see this video!!!

proud to be from Qatar

[Aburamzi]

where is Qatar anyway?

[koggak]

some where you can't even dream of coming to :)

[R1500man]

[sally2007]

It`s the best opening ceremony ..

[cheesemonkeylick]

SAW IT IN PERSON i live in doha. :D

[ourouba]

god bless u sheikh mohammad, u made me fall in love with u.i want u to know that u are the eighth wonder.i think that this life, this world, times, and skies has never and will never witness a man as beautiful and as miraculous as u are.i love u so.

[stjdot]

the best opening ceremony in the history of all sporting events

[JAYJAS0311]

Very dramatic indeed! Whoever the organizers decided to light the cauldron would not deminish the drama of the moment. Yet letting the son of the Emir do it, on horseback, was definitely amazing! It multiplied the drama ang excitement a billion times!

[corapika]

magnificent!!!

[bhorum]

this opening ceremony is the most promising to me!!!!

[DM2223]

when i first saw it ... i was sooo scared

i was thinking how the shai5 would be doing at that moment too...because he is his son after all

but i most like the ending

[hamada316]

you had to be here my friend and watch it live!amazing atmosphere indeed :)

[kdilacad]

dude best lighting of the cauldron ever! it's so dramatic i almost cried hahaha
