  • ooooh its in london next? aww, too bad we have to wait another four years D:

  • i doubt london will be able to come up with better

  • But they will run themselves to the ground trying which will still ensure an amazing show. Beijing really set the bar high.

  • there is no diffrence between you guys and stoneage illitrate person we all should learn how to appriciate! even if it was fake i can say they r genius

  • its like bagdad

  • Except the fireworks are on the floor.

  • The chinese spent lota cash on the olympics and all their effort (hard work) is critsized by the westerns as "fake" "lip syning" etc.

    Give them credit.

  • Hey, this torch can give Beijing the Dumb Medal in polution . I´d include hundreds

    of cute and naked girls...it´s more natural and smoke free :)

  • There were fireworks there other people videotaped it live. Though it is amazing what you can do with 3d, and photoshop you can't really tell what is fake, and whats not.

  • They killed it this has to be the best display ever.

  • watch?v=1UEOZGFzPas

  • do it my ass, i dont care you kolians is sunsung or human inventor or whatever the fuck is, i am gonna split your country into another two pieces and fuck you up

  • Olympics fireworks OR Ossetian artillery shells? Joking!

  • You should become a stand up comedian.

  • there are only some footprint firework was made by computer due to security reason,the rest of the firework are all real,western try to call it 'fake'? the real scandal is they can't follow china's step,they still live in the age of stone,this is the age of cutting edge digital,the age of virtual,the age of postmodern,you don't call this fake,this is art,this is a part of the reality,the chinese understand this so they have nothing to hide,they didn't keep it as a secret,how low is the western?!

  • whoa. those were a lot of fireworks.

    and quite ironic when an ambulance went by near the end of the vid. :|

  • it's a police car

  • stunnig beautiful.

  • This video should be spread like wild fire to combat the smear campaign being waged against China's image in the jealous reaction the the greatest Olympic opening ceremony in history. By the way, Bob Costas, while commentating about the footprint fireworks said that that scene was a "digital effect". It was not a secret. There was no way to get that angle without risking the helicopter crew.

  • FOOTSTEP FIREWORKS

    /watch?v=xX6yZ1JeP9M&feature=r­elated

  • china prove that he is the best of all : china beat all previous record .

  • what are u trying to say?

  • Boycott my ASS, you low income loser, just because you cant offord to go and see the Olympic doesnt mean that you have to ruined it for others who can offord. hahahahaha Another western FAGGOT.

  • It was simply the Best, period.

  • what? beijing put on the best opening cermony ever even without the lipsyncer and the fake fireworks wich lasted like 1 min

  • Nonsense....Just see the video ''Olympic Closing Ceremony Athens 2004 - As kratisoun oi xoroi'' and find out what rythm and music means...

  • umm.. i didnt watch it in china. but you have to accept the truth that only the footprints fireworks were fake when it was broadcated on the tv. i mean seriosly its pretty real look at the smokes. but if theres a chance it wasnt real, cummon its pretty convincing even though its fake people paid money to watch it and they seem HELLA SATISFICED

  • the reason why u say the aren't fake is because u actually watched them from china..not on tv back home like us where the fireworks were actually faked. I'd be pretty impressed if they could fake fireworks live in fromt of people watching it in person and not on tv

  • i saw it sad ):

  • i know but most ppl in the Us was told diffrently by the media =_=

  • The fireworks are real and WERE actually there but some of the fireworks on TV was computer generated because they were afraid it wouldn't show on camera because of the dense clouds and night weather. Only on TV though!

  • yeah xero is right the helicopters couldnt fill all of the footprints at the sametime or something like that so they had to use the computers

  • The footprints at the beginning are fake not the whole set. There is a reason only news companies have video footage of the footprint "fireworks" leading up to the arena.

  • Who says she has to sing for real. It was not a rock concert. The little girl was just one of the thousands of performers to present the director's artistic vision.

    If the director thinks her being there lip-singing makes the overall production better, she lip-sings, simple as that. And the director was right.

  • The girl on stage didn't realy sing. The voice we've heared is from another girl, wich was supposed to sing but didn't because they taught she was too ugly for the scene.

  • i know , but did you watch the part where yao ming was walking with a tiny boy , he survived the earthquake, 2/3 of his classmates died. nothing else, but hes cutexD

    im just saying,=D

  • those fireworks were not fake just look at the smokes and the computer generated ones were only seen if u saw it on television, the fake ones were the ones that looked liked foots. They were prerecorded and then broadcated on TV

  • i think the lipsyncing was wrong for sure

    but the western media reli go too far

    some newspapers in canada and australia even report tat on the front page

    whats the point?

  • How can fire works be not real?? Look at those smokes! Even if it is fake, its fantastic isn't it? Is like we pay to watch animation?? If its good why not?

  • china makes tonns of ROBOT

    their duty is to get GOLD

  • About the little girl, i agree that it was wrong to deceive the world, however i see american artists doing it all the time. Because china does it, it's suddenly horrible. furthermore who really cares, did you not enjoy the show?!! then shut the hell up, you're just jealous that your country couldn't do better.

  • Wow!! Look at this stunning simulation. It almost looks real. Only, Only an american can come up with something so stupid. Simulated - this is really stupid, on bbc (a reliable source) they explained that SOME were done the night before - out of safety concerns. Now how the hell could they possibly be Fake.

  • typical chinese fraud. worthless genocide-endorsing assholes.......

  • I heard the fireworks started a huge fire and destroyed half of beijind and smurfs came and joined forces with ninja turtles to put the fire out!

  • haha

  • You suck at recording

  • excelente,no se podia esperar menos de los invetores de la polvora.

  • So their was feet shaped fireworks? because thats not what the news said.

  • Hmm what about that stupid little Asian girl miming because the real girl that was singing was too ugly.

    Yeah try and call that the WESTERN MEDIA BRAINWASHES

  • of coz it is not brainwash

    but why they keep forecasting on a lip-syncing news??just becoz the host country is china??

  • onewayticket2007: Pavaratti lip-sanged at the 2006 winter Olympics. What's the big deal?

  • Trust me,

    It is about trust and misrepresentation.

    If it happened it the west, the papers in the west is going to a greater time writing about it. Someone has to apologize and probably resign because of this already.

    They are very kind to China already.

  • i cant believe that the western media can be that irresponsible, the footprints firework is not fake and did reli go off,

    and they call that as fakery?

    i bet if it happened in us or canada they would happy to call that as 'visual effect' or 'simulation'

    the news they wrote was ambiguous as well

    they try to let u guys believe that, all fireworks were fake but not just the footprint one on TV

  • bullshit faggot. chinese are just lying pricks.

  • that crap just added to the shitty air over beijing

  • its environmentally friendly fireworks as part of the "Green Games"

  • His nick is nathanq9 and is spamming all over YouTube with his sort of cyber-crusade.

    BTW... amazing fireworks :)

  • The comment was for some Irish guy exploding against some non-christian people of the world. I think his comment was deleted, though.

  • Oh, yes. And where we will see Christian brutality? You can find clips of all western invasions... and maybe of torture and other cruelties done in the "civilized" world. Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, among the most recent brutal actions of "civilization". No wonder why we are so unpopular out of U.S. You know what brutality is, you are Irish, aren't you? Have forgotten Derry? I don't support any kind of cruelty, but we, westerners, should point ourselves before pointing anyone else's behavior.

  • The snow in Canada is made to walk on not snort. How do u explain the live camera shots of ppl with same sequence of fireworks and they were live. stop smoking, snorting, shotting up with the snow. Only David Copperfield can do live CGI. And even if it is true, why ruin it for us. Seeing that you guys may not even get a medal at all. :p Go China! Aewsome specticale. Real or not, looks better than any show i've seen. Live or otherwise.

  • TechieXP, sorry to say you CANNOT handle the truth.

    It is your Chinese organizers said they added pre-recorded footages,and computer generated segments.

    That is okay, keep your lies :P

    I love your passion to your country but this is "愚忠".

    It may look pretty but if it is not real, it just not real.

  • But that isn't even close to what we saw on TV in Canada. Officials now ADMIT IT. They CGI'd some of the fireworks and mixed in pre-recording of the other. Also, the "ugly" girl was pulled and a "pretty" one lipsynched for her: the Chinese Mini-Vanilli Opening is what we call it now. Take off eh, hosers!

  • that was awesome!!

  • Burn China Burn

  • idiot, asshole

  • Peopla plz, the Frireworks was realm, the problem was the smoke and china just wanted to show a good show but whit the smoke they cant, so they make a premade video for show it on TV, but they used near 3 million dollars on Fireworks, and you can see it on this and other real and not edited videos.

  • They came out and said the televised version of the fireworks were partly CGI. China is a very superficial culture and very fixated on appearance. They just wanted to put on a good show whether it's technically "faking it" or not. And then there's the whole deal with the lip syncing.

  • HAHAHAHA HOHOHHOHO. Youre from PSU? Penn State? This is in America, right? Land of Las Vegas, Las Vegas, and Miami?

    Yes, China is VERY superficial. hahaha hohohoho. huhuhuh

  • If all you know about the US is Las Vegas and Miami then you are more ridiculous than you're trying to make me seem. Get outside of your own head you might learn something.

  • WESTERN MEDIA BRAINWASHES AND DECEIVES PEOPLE MORE THAN I THOUGHT!!

    ONLY ONE 2 MINUTE video of the footprint fireworks approaching the stadium was "computerised" because IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE TO FILM IT LIVE!! they actually did have those fireworks!! the rest of the fireworks were real too!

    dont be so IGNORANT to believe EVERYTHING THE MEDIA EXAGGERATES! have your own mind!

  • I don't know what about my comment suggested that I was implying that the whole thing was CGI but if you read it correctly I said partially. I got the same news you did. And the only way you can be brainwashed is by being a willing participant. Don't believe everything you hear about "western" life.

  • well. if u watch the real footage you will notice that it looks billion times better with perfect formations and perfect colors- NOT POSSIBLE with fireworks, therefore FAKE! simple as that.

  • 2 minutes of fake video presented as live is 2 minutes too much.

    Too say, the misjudgment has discredited china already.

  • kevylicious,

    why do they presented the "computerised" or "computer generated" images as "live", then.

    If they put a footnote saying, "this is a computer generate approximation of live firework show. The real footage is not available due to safety reason".

    That would consider to be honest.

    And by the way, why don't they say something like "the sound track currently playing does not necessarily the performance of the artist stage".

  • so, the chinese government did admit that the fireworks were fake...

  • and the little girl singing

  • Hahaha, remind anyone of shock and awe?

  • fucking bbc ~~~eat shit pls~~~~~fake ur dad and mother

  • 实拍天安门广场上空踏往鸟巢的脚印烟花

    search with this~~

  • its real. good job Beijing.

  • fake ur mother~~~~~~~!

  • I wonder if the liver,Lung and stomac cancer that are at an all time high becouse there drinking plasma t.v waste and breathing in all sorts of toxins from the air is this fake? Chinas Fake always putting on a show the world owns china there our dumpster now!

  • that was great! i wish i were in china right now

  • The Chinese people want to live in friendly with every nation in the world . Harmonious forever. I'm a chinese college student.

  • I don't  think you are a high quality guy!

  • Sure, that's why the Chinese military is building nuclear missiles specifically capable of reaching the United States mainland. That's why the Chinese military budget has ballooned in the last 10 years. My fortune cookie says China will start the next world war.

  • I tell you we Chinese people or Chinese Government never launch a war forever.

    We just depend us carefully. Because we experienced disaster during WAR2. You know too many Chinese people died in dame WAR2.

    We are educated to be peaceful when we are chikd and we know how bad the war is.

    和平 和谐 peace forever, harmony forever!

  • Never launched a war? tell that to the mongols, tibetians, and Indians.

  • of course! I don't know who tell you that. Inner mongolia and Tibet are a part of China.

    We of course launch ea war agaist with our people . India have a different view at border.We do not allow every people separate our motherland.

  • well, actually the Chinese did raise wars again her surrounding countries ....

    Check your Chinese history text.

    Chinese suffered a lot in WW II. The Japanese were so bad.

  • The only thing "fakes" were the footprint fireworks. These, and 99% of the others were real.

  • The fireworks around the Bird's Nest stadium were real, the television footage of fireworks in other parts of Beijing was not.

  • i don't care if that was fake...it was kinda' cool!

  • I feel cheated because when i watched the fireworks live on tv i thought they were real but to find that they cheated us. If you are unable to do a certain display why do they pretend to be able to do it? I knew it looked too clear in the broardcast.

  • trust too much of your media, even forget you've got pupil...

  • I read that correctly? You feel "cheated"? Please be kidding.

    You know, someone in the audience was actually stabbed to death during the ceremony; I bet his relatives are feeling a little cheated as well...and not because of a couple of fake fireworks.

  • americans, just shut the fuck and handle the truth, china rapes USAanyday, fuck u americans, pipe down and quit saying thier shit is fake, just come out of the closet u faggots

  • congratulations you are racist!

  • americans shut up , sit, and watch a real show.........

  • If you think this is fake ,see my channel,it is not CG.why do you believe it is fake?

  • If I were there I'd plug my ears..!

  • omg big fireworks :]

  • the chinesee people discovered the fireworks

  • u mean invented

  • thats sickkk

  • was that fire at end? the fireworks were crazy sick

  • I like how the camera was shaking from all the fireworks

  • oly fudge

    u were there? did it cost ya anyting to be within viewing distance?

    so cool

  • The ones in the clip above are real but the footprints (sorry to reiterate) were fake i have total faith in the technologicaly sound chinese to pull these types of shows off but in this instance this isn't the case not bitter or sour grapes just facts

  • Actually, the footprints were real, but they used CGI for the aerial footage of them as they had safety concerns about putting a helicopter near them.

  • ^ : : : : : SEE CHANNEL : : : : : :
  • bEST ECVER

  • rhat was amazing

  • The footprints segment was fake check out the interview by the beijing times the creator of the footprints is gao xiaolong, the footprint fireworks were ready to be fired but after consultation with the powers that be and the beijing olympic commitee they had to go with the fake as the chinese only had one live feed for 3 billion viewers the alternative would have been a segment of darkness.

  • oh really? why dont you have a look at this: someone filmed the footsteps on the street: watch?v=wbZrI8onelg

  • the guys in the committee said they edited it with computer generated and per-recorded footages, not me.

    Of course, they said fire work did go off on Beijing,

    Again, it is just not looking good enough. So they decided to show the world some footage previously shot.

    That is why i am so upset, they said it is "live" but it was footage previous shot and computer generated.

    I felt being tricked.

  • i think the most important thing for a firework shown is artistic, if u make fake goods like toy and food ofcoz it is sin, but it was fair enough for them to make a CG and show that on TV, fireworks went off meanwhile...

    we never say the superman fake me and starwars fake me,right?:)

  • I don't have any problem if i was told the firework is a computer stimulation of what is happening and the song playing is not performed by the artist on stage.

    Hollywood told me superman is a movie, Beijing told me what it is "Live".

    If Beijing told me that what i am about to see is a stimulation, i would not even brother to see the ceremony.

    They misrepresent themselves and therefore tricked me into giving them credit for putting up such a great show.

    That is why i felt i was tricked.

  • nice

  • New single coming 2009! (click above)

  • nice!

  • WOW

  • Beautiful, well done.

  • many people think the foot steps fireworks were fake, however it is not. They are all REAL!!!! I just watched "the making of the opening ceremony" I was truly amazed!! Well done Zhang yimou and his team!!!

  • uk news yahoo com/skynews/20080811/twl-olymp­ic-fireworks-faked-for-tv-3fd0­ae9 html

  • I dont think the ones described in the article are these. The faked ones where around the city and taken from a birds eye view by a cameraman in a helicopter. Supposed to look like footprints too.

  • Chinese fireworks are just too good that westerners think its fake, or maybe they just jealous because they can't make it. China invented gunpowder thousands of years ago after all.

  • that's true...Chinese fireworks are the best!

  • no.. it's just that the firework show has some (not all)computer generated fireworks cause of safety concern. Not a big deal but the real firework are still amazing.

  • say if i gave you a thousand dollars in fives. What if a few of them is printed at my home, will you accepted that as a thousand dollars.

  • Because all airplans are banned, so the further away footsteps fireworks were pre-recorded.

    All the fireworks in the stadium and around it were real fireworks and it set a new guiness world record of more than 100000 firework rockets fired!

  • some of the fireworks were fake.. some were done on a screen or sumthin like that.. for safety purposes.. but they were still great

  • The opening ceremony was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I hope someone releases it on Bluray.

  • wow! that is so very awesome. to so really very heart pounding experience even it's only in youtube. Its like some kind of a battle of loud dragons. Thanks for sharing the video. Well gudluck all you guys and have fun in Beijing.

  • I feel the same exact thing!

  • OMG! Talk about intense!!

  • muy buen video saludos desde venezuela

  • The point of view is awesome! The camera wasnt steady tho. 5/5!
