THE DIRECTION IS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE BROADCAST WORLDWIDE & RELEASED ON DVD!

The DNA hologram & the rising of the olive tree during the Opening Ceremony of the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens as broadcast in High Definition.

"O Patria Mia" from G.Verdi's Aida - Maria Callas

Lyrics:
"Tora peto ya tis zois to paniyiri
tora peto ya tis haras mou ti yorti
fegaria mou palia
kenouria mou poulia
diohte ton ilio ke ti mera ap' to vouno
ya na me dite na perno
san astrapi ston ourano"

Translation:
Now I'm flying to the feast of life
now I'm flying to the celebration of my joy
Old moons of mine
New birds of mine
Chase away the sun and the day from the mountain
so that you may see me come
like a lightning in the sky.

  • ΤΟ DNA ΤΩΝ ΕΛΛΗΝΩΝ ΔΕΝ ΣΥΜΒΟΛΙΖΕΙ ΜΟΝΟ ΤΟ ΜΕΛΛΟΝ ΑΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΕ ΑΓΓΛΕ

    ΘΑ ΤΟ ΚΑΤΑΛΑΒΕΙΣ ΕΣΥ ΚΑΙ ΟΛΗ Η ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΤΗΤΑ ΠΟΛΥ ΠΙΟ ΣΥΝΤΟΜΑ ΑΠΟ ΟΤΙ ΦΑΝΤΑΖΕΤΑΙ ΚΑΝΕΙΣ

    " ΗΛΘΕΝ Η ΩΡΑ ΙΝΑ ΔΟΞΑΣΤΕΙ Ο ΥΙΟΣ ΤΟΥ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΥ "

  • ναρκωτικα..

  • @dragonflymed It's almost funny talking to me about values in life or the power of mind.. I am greek and i have studied since i was a kid about all these..maybe you are a greek too, because you understood the meaning, the messages and the whole atmosphere of our ceremony.

    With my comment i just wanted to mention that the modern greeks not only read books about ancient ideas but they can also produce such a remarkable, technological sight, although few people in the world expected it to be so..

  • @MrElpaso68 I wish i can understand what are u saying ! i love greece!

  • amazing choreography! A great culture and the best Olympic cerimony ever!

  • @gioulyfull everything about technology & nothing about life.so sorry for you for you'll never understand the value of such a moment...pitty that so many people like you believe in the power of mind and not the power of heart,of soul and spirit.(the only thing that stayed in my mind after watching the olympics in beiijing was hunderds of soldiers and fighters moving sychronized all over the stadium) no i'll go with the ones in Athens...the greek olympic games are not games...they are an idea

  • that video proves that not only the americans or germans or chinese know about technology...
