I had goose bumps all the way through this video. As a very proud Australian, I may be bias, but these games were definitely the, friendliest, happiest and brought out the best in every athlete. I was there, the streets and events were ALIVE!

As a Brit who was living in New Zealand at the time, there was definitely something exceptional about the Sydney Olympics that the world had not seen before. I believe Sydney became the blueprint for really how to put on an Olympic Games.

I have watched EVERY opening ceremony of the Olympics ever broadcast since 1968........Sydney 2000 was without doubt the greatest that has ever been performed.........The Olympics themselves were the most brilliantly planned, organised, run and trouble free in ALL respects of any held since 1956..... and they even beat Melbourne. They made a profit with future world tourism to this country and EVERY one of the sporting venues and accommodation sites are still being used!!!!!!!.......... Transport and accommodation was a dream. Organization was brilliant, security precautions stunning. Nothing will ever come close to the 2000 games

Pedro Australians must be racist to have revolved their games around the aborigines. Most Australians love the indigenous people, even though most of them live thousands of kms apart and have never met any. Many, many Australians do what they can to help aborigines in their professional capacity, and all are supported financially by the government. It has only just dawned on authorities that their social problems are based on trauma which is passed on from one generation to the next. Hopefully their psychological problems can be addressed directly in future. The actions/inactions of governments does not reflect the attitudes of the people

Yeah ... as stated in this video, the whole bloody country stopped to watch Kathy Freeman and 'vibe' he on, after which she did a victory lap with BOTH flags. Exactly how ignorant can one person be? The hilarious thing is that in the real world, Australia is easily one of the LEAST racist countries; which is not something I am just saying, it's been shown in numerous worldwide studies. One quarter of current Australians were born overseas somewhere for goodness sake!n Which is why Australia has also been found, in numerous studies, to be one of the most multicultural countries in the world. Of course there are some racists; sadly they are everywhere, in every country. However there are very few in Australia and, as pointed out by - +j Phillips - the vast majority of Australians are disgusted by what was done to the Aborigines and would do almost anything to solve the problem. Unfortunately though, it's a problem that has no easy answers and needs to be solved over the course of generations. The Aborigines know that, which is why Kathy Freeman carried BOTH flags. Let's hope ignoramuses like poor, uneducated, clueless Pedro don't make matters worse by spreading their hateful racist bile. It's funny that a huge racist like Pedro - whose comments are the VERY DEFINITION of racism - is calling an entire nation racist!

Dorothea Mackellar's Poem...."My Country" is one of if not the greatest national representative poems ever written. She penned it in 1908 while only 19 years old and in England....Originally called "Core of my Heart"...for any Australian who knows this land and loves it, it is really the National Anthem that has never had music put to it!!!!!!!!!!! I have loved the poem since I first heard it when I was 6 years old....almost 50 years ago.....................Its use at the beginning of the video is great (even if they do get one word wrong...rugged instead of ragged)

The most amazing thing about the 4x100m Freestyle relay final is that EVERY Australian swimmer was headed by his US opponent at some stage in his leg except Klim who swam a world record.......EVERY single one of them swam the greatest relay leg that they ever swam in their careers................ ESPECIALLY Ashley Callis. His leg was stupendous the greatest adjusted 100m freestyle that he swam in his entire career....He gave Thorpe the winning margin.........The sound when Thorpe went past Hall in the last 4 strokes was almost DEAFENING!!...When Dennis says the roof was lifet off the stadium, I can tell you from personal experience he is 100% absolutely correct!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The most wonderful and best experience of my life, was volunteering at the Sydney Olympics for the whole 12 days as a NAATI Mandarin-English-Mandarin interpreter with Language Services. Every language had an Aussie volunteer interpreter from Australia. There were no imports from other countries. Juan Antonio Samaranch declared "The most dedicated and wonderful volunteers ever". Without the volunteers these games would not have been the historic wonderful success that they were.

I was 9 when the Olympics were here in Sydney. I remember my parents being so excited! They took my sister and I to watch the torch race at different points which at the time i was kind of, like, a bit underwhelmed not really understanding haha But as a 28 year old now, i would love that! haha At school we got to dress in our nationalities colours and did our own opening ceremony which was really cool. My parents managed to get tickets for softball (my mum played softball for fun so that was cool), equestrian and mountain cycling. My parents weren't very wealthy but they saved up and got us tickets to these events and i am very grateful now!! It was just a really nice time to be living in Sydney. I hope we have it here again :)

I'm so sad that since this olimpics there is no any documentary film about the next olimpics in timeline.

A truly outstanding recording, and of course a fantastic staging of this most epic of events! One day we will hopefully see a perfect Olympics staged (once the IOC get their act together) when the world's most amazing female athletes are only required to compete against other biological females.

Marion Jones won 5 medals juiced to the eyeballs...that is a much bigger problem than confected culture wars over trans women.

Cathy with the torch in front of the waterfall is a stunning visual. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised this film lacked a segment on women’s gymnastics, which was such a disaster in 2000, not triumphant :(

Frederick Grimes Just think of them all as being as sad and deluded as the citizens of poor North Korea and as stupid and evil as Kim Jong-Un; THEY all blame the USA for EVERYTHING. It's easier to blame somebody else more powerful rather than looking inward to examine your own faults.

amazing sport country, I love Australia, .....the most emotional moment, and moment of recognising, is the 400 metres of "recognising the culture of the Aboriginals", of their ambassador, Cathy Freeman, ....a moment of hapiness and tears, ...for so long, troubles, with the establishment, and genocide of the Aboriginals, ....

Great and funny Erkki Nool and his dramatic decathlon gold. Although in the anglophilic film Chris Huffins is the main character.

Didn't Steve Redgrave become the first Olympian to win 5 Gold medals in an endurance sport at these Games? You'd never know it from watching this.
