For some reason the London 2012 Olympics came to mind today, and I thought I’d revisit the opening ceremony. Thirteen years on, the brilliance of it hasn’t faded. Recreating the Industrial Revolution and forging the Olympic rings in a few minutes is absolute genius. (Plus, there’s a lot of comedy!)
If you’re feeling bored today, check it out again. It’s definitely worth a rewatch.
