The only music I could think of that would be less appropriate for this video would literally have to come from a porn flick.

Very interesting - once you hit the mute button to kill the noise.

Just spotted this video. As one of thousands of Gamesmakers, you're welcome! It was a joy, and utter joy. Your thanks and appreciation are touching.

I miss the Olympics :(

I was a Young Games Maker, part of a team of 10 in total, 2 adult leaders and 8 juniors. I dropped in just after the test event as one member was just too young to be eligible, best decision of my life! In total we raised over £8000 for the hotel, meals and travel expenses for the whole team and it was by far worth it! We were at Lords carrying the arrows from the targets to the archers! As a keen archer I found it inspiring and so Im aiming for a future Olympics!

Your Games Makers need you!!! Purchase their charity song I Wish For You The World from itunes, Play, Amazon and even Sainsburys!!! Let's finish 2012 with a BANG! Check out their video on You Tube. Please share with all your Games Maker friends

God bless your soul. You made my experience memorable. You may have gone back to your normal life, but we won't forget you guys quickly.

andyb56 what a drama queen in fact i sense someone who applied to be a games maker but didn't make it and now has an agenda.

I was a Gamesmaker at Wimbledon and after being at the Opening Ceremony, started my shift with 2 hours sleep! The atmosphere was so exciting and friendly ( especially the army welcoming us in) It was a priviledge to have been involved in such an iconic venue and to see the delight in watching people see Centre Court for the first time! It was a very emotional and fun experience and of one that will remain with me forever. So thanks LOCOG for giving me the chance to be involved and we did it!!

Saw my cousins in this :D

It was indeed a pleasure and a privilege to have served the 2012 Olympic Games! Paul Grant Hillier, Operations Steward - Equestrian, Greenwich Park Proud Olympic Games Maker - Canada

"This is about the class system in this country and the selfish state we have become". Sorry, this is not about some twerp (you) wanting to argue the toss about class. This is about thanking a fantastic group of people who help put the Great back into Britain. So take that chip and your shoulder with it and bog off somewhere else.

Bully. Can't argue a topic so cast slurs like "Troll". This is about the class system in this country and the selfish state we have become. The power of government to control and distort is what I'm talking about and its more pertintent today as we remember the Hillsborough dead and come to terms with what Thatcher did to their kin. But thats not for you is it, carry on the love in with your employment stealing brethren... wheres the Pimms?

ok excuse me, thank you for all United Kingdom.

My husband was a Games Maker. He is retired on a pension. He paid out for the fares to the trainings and he put in many hours preparing for and during the Paralympic games. We spent the longest time apart in our 45 yr marriage as he stayed at our youngest son's in Stevenage as it was nearer than Northampton where we live in a retirement village. He loved every minute of his time as a Games Maker. I have written 2 poems about Paralympians on my facebook page. Thank you the public and athletes!

I'm pretty sure when we signed up for the roles none of us GamesMakers expected anything like the response we received. We've been welcomed into the hearts of the country and treated as stars. We aren't all unemployed bums as doupyourflies seems to think, in fact I don't think I met anyone who was in all my time there. We took holidays from work to do something that we truely felt was worth while, and wasn't it just. Watching this has moved me to tears, as have so many other tributes. Thank you.

The freezing will be the quality/speed of your Internet connection. Try again another time.

Why are volunteer performers (and staff behind the scenes) in the four ceremonies never mentioned? Some rehearsed for up to 150 hours per show - that's a full month of standard hours work.

Thank you everyone! I was a games maker at the stadium, and we gamesmakers feed off of your enthusiasm for the games. Thank you for turning up happy and willing to have a great day out! We will miss it!

I was an Olympic and Paralympic Gamesmaker loved all of my 20 shifts :) Thank you x

i was a young games maker and it was an amazing experience, i am so sad its all over, but i met a whole load of new wonderful people and my summer was truly AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

Not bizarre. People do things for various reasons. I do it rarely and feel guilty afterwards. Stealing work so large conglomerates can benefit isn't something I enjoy and I do it under pressure. This whole thing is very dark and quite scary. Its like Germany early on in the second world war and we are currently at war. Thats why the first thing on radio 5 live news today was the North Korean style quote by the oaf Cameron on Andy Murray's great victory. Worrying times to say the least.

i would love to see evrey single human being burnt to a sinder until i am the only person in the world left!!! then i would enjoy my life. humans need to DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

as a gamesmaker at the Olympic village this brought a lump to my throat, l really really will miss my shifts now it's all over . l would like to thank all the people l worked with for giving me so much pleasure and for the memories that will last a lifetime, god bless you all

at the winter olympics 2010 they were just as great... and you reminded us just how much fun they make the whole thing... not just being at the game but getting to the game., thank you ...... a former helper.. it was a party from start to the end and everyone made it a party and everyone it did not matter where you were from we there to have a fun time and become a family its a party just getting there

Gamesmakers? Employment breakers. I refuse to join this lower middle class love in. These are the selfish, they do it for themselves because they're wealthy enough to do it. I do the same at events which suit me but I'm a hippie and live with myself on that basis. This was an opportunity for the unemployed and as usual the greediest scuppered it and increased the profits for the greedier. If you were unemployed and doing it why weren't you job seeking while I was at work earning your benefit?

I couldn't make the parade - but all my patients in my diabetic clinic today were treated by a nurse in gamesmaker uniform. Loved being a gamesmaker for the cycling road races and time trials. Only wish I'd had the availability to do the paralympics as well. Brilliant experience.

Thank you to all the volunteers who made London 2012 such a fantastic experience, especially the Games Makers. They should not give the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award to an individual (too many to choose from anyway) but give it to all the London 2012 Games Makers. Eddie Izzards emotions at the end of this video sum up how great they all were.

Thank You to all! You really put the GREAT in Great Britain!

Some of my teachers are games makers and my friends parents :)

This video is unwatchable as it keeps freezing! As a gamesmaker I found this very disapointing after having a fabulous games. I was based at the North Greenwich Arena and I spoke to people from all over the world who consistently told us how well organised the games were and what a great job we were all doing. The feedback given was all positive. The whole experience was fantastic but exhausting. A one -off experience that will never happen again in my lifetime!!

Thank you, thank you Games Makers - you are superb!! Surely, surely got to be up for a special team of the year award at the annual sports' personality bash..? You helped make our Olympic day unforgetable - thank you.

Was honoured to be a Games Maker. I had an experience I will never forget. Thank you :)

I was a Games Maker at the Olympic Park doing Venue Entry. Not the most glamorous job making everybody pour out their liquids etc but everyone was so nice and understanding and overcame my shyness. Yesterday after waking up at 5:30 for a 7am start, volunteered to do the afternoon shift as it was my last day. Then in the evening someone from the paralympic family gave me a closing ceremony ticket, best night ever and a fitting end to a wonderful week, Thank you to him and all the spectators!

I was a Gamesmaker at Greenwich Park. The waving flags and clapping hands of the huge crowd in total silence so as not to spook the Para riders' horses was magical. Jane McG

I was a Games Maker at the Olympic Park & I had great fun seeing all them smiley faces inside the park & everyone enjoying themselves

I was a gamesmaker at Eton Dorney and had a fantastic time. Everyone wanted to have a great experience, the Army and spectators as well as the gamesmakers and it was the experience of a lifetime. Thanks to everyone.

All the gamesmaskers did the most amazing job working tirelessly during the Olympics making it such a great experience for every member of publc who attended. You are all superstars indeed. But please also remember those of us who were in the opening and closing ceremonies too and all the volunteers who worked so hard on those shows too, We are all one very big Olympic family and have achieved one of the best Olympic games in memory - Without us it would never have happened !! well done

I was a gamesmaker for 2 weeks at the NGA. I can honestly say they were among the best two weeks of my life. The people I worked with, the public, everyone was just so friendly and happy to be a part of it. Enjoy the parade, wish I could be there, but the uniform will be worn with pride at work :)

Thank you to all volunteers not just games makers!! Ceremonies volunteers, london ambassadors and all the others!!

I was a Games Maker at Weymouth and Portland, the atmosphere was amazing I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Everyone pulled together no matter what background they came from, we were all the same working for one goal, which was to make games enjoyable for all !!

I only had the opportunity to experience the feelgood factor once, BUT WOW, WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!!!!!! The volunteers/gamesmakers, whichever ones I encountered on my visit on 7th August, they were ALL amazing and I enjoyed them as much as the sport I went to spectate. THANK YOU, ONE AND ALL.

I was a Games Maker at the O2! Everyone working with me was so nice.

I went to London 2012 Olympic park 3 times the games makers were the best they helped me loads with everything thank you for making it the best games ever games makers

I was a Games Maker at the Olympic Park, and had the time of my life. I scanned more tickets, gave more high-fives and took more photos (of spectators) than I ever thought possible. I would love to thank all spectators who gave in their 'spare' tickets - you gave us Games Makers the opportunity see sports we would otherwise have missed, and experience the Park in a way we never dreamed. You say we made YOUR Games - but honestly you made OURS! Thank you all!

If you ain't Dutch, you ain't much :D

You are all AMAZING!!! You made it EXTRA special.Your enthusiasm, smiles,and energy!!! THANK YOU!!

I loved it, would do it again.

Where would I find the blog?
