Did you know that the flames represent the death and the Greek heroes?
A long time ago the ancient Greeks had war, some heroes died and that is why the flame was lit.
A long time ago they had a relay and they carried a torch then run around the world.The last one to carried the torch has to lite the large torch at the stadium. Some of them walk, ride and scuba dive and that sometimes takes them a long time.
The first games was held in the Olympia, Greece and it took all of the people a long time to go around the world.The large torch flames are huge, and you might get burnt!
