Paris Olympics 2024 - The Greatest Show on Earth

[@olelain]

Thank you for your nice video. KZbin is full of trolls who deny the beauty of Paris 2024. Merci !

[@TheFootyTrip]

@@olelain Indeed, that's the internet sadly. I just like to give my honest views on personal experiences and this was absolutely brilliant, amazing city and everything came together beautifully 😍

[@mattbad3114]

As a Parisian, I'm so happy Paris got to show its good side and it warms my heart seeing so many people from so many different cultures getting along and singing together; these Olympics were awesome and thank you for your vlog, it's always so cool seeing people discover the landmarks of our beautiful city

[@TheFootyTrip]

@@mattbad3114 Thank you for the lovely comment. It is so true, sometimes with all the negativity in the world that is all we see in the news so it is great that Paris had the opportunity to show it's best side and frankly you guys did an amazing job. It will certainly hold a special place in my heart forever 😍

[@gandigooglegandigoogle7202]

what shocked me the most was the beauty of the sites and this absolutely incredible atmosphere! I've never seen this anywhere! and I don't think I'll ever find such an atmosphere again, it was simply crazy!

[@TheFootyTrip]

@@gandigooglegandigoogle7202 Completely agree, I've been to many events, mostly football to be honest but this was something special. One of the most exciting and important things in an event is what the hosts bring and as you say, the beauty of the sites and atmosphere was incroyable. Let's hope LA can do somewhere close. Let's see 🤞

[@Malik_Sylvus]

It was great to see people, from all around the world, were very happy during the Olympic games thanks to the sport and the parisian atmosphere.

Thank you Sir, I hope the happiness continues and that the Paralympics brings the same vibes

[@battermy]

A beautiful video! Not because I am French, but because I am happy to see that every person who came to Paris for the Olympic Games was able to experience this spectacle which was extraordinary for us. This video is a perfect summary of the Olympic values, a meeting of the world around sport, with sharing, respect and many emotions. So thank you for coming, without you the party would not have been so beautiful.

Merci pour ce beau reportage. Je suis français et J ai suivi les jeux comme vous et il faut savoir que je n’ai jamais vu en France une telle ambiance patriote et sympathique également pour l ensemble des nations. Les français sont tous surpris de l engouement populaire surtout que nous sommes réputés râleurs. Nous sommes donc fiers que l ensemble des touristes ait pu découvrir cette face cachèe du tempérament des français et de vous avoir fait admirer à nouveau la plus belle ville du monde. Sachez que le prix des transports a quand même doubler pendant les JO 😅 et à très bientôt j en suis sur, la ville regorge de coins cachés encore plus beaux que les grands monuments…

Ah, merci beaucoup d'avoir regardé et je suis content que vous ayez apprécié. Je suis également heureux pour le peuple français que vous ayez retrouvé un nouveau bonheur et une nouvelle fierté. Le monde rapporte toujours de nombreuses raisons pour lesquelles les gens sont malheureux, donc les Jeux olympiques ont été une véritable pause. J'espère que Paris et la France pourront perpétuer l'esprit olympique à l'avenir. Et oui, j'adorerais y retourner.

Thanks for your nice "tour de France" of these Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Your video describes nicely the atmosphere of this wonderfull time. To precise the olympic flamme cauldron rising up in the air attached to a balloon is an hommage to the first ever human static flight processed by the Mongolfier brothers in 1783 in Versailles by filling up a ballon with warm air from a fire. Thus calling such a balloon a "montgolfière'. Greetings from Paris France.

THE FOOTY TRIP, Hi from South France, 🌴🌞 To understand why the Mona Lisa is so important in pictorial art, you have to know that this painting was a precursor at the time, paving the way for all the painters who would follow and even copy it. The techniques used, the arrangement of the elements composing it, etc., are innovations. To give an example allows us to understand better this particular craze and what makes it the most expensive painting in the world if ever, one day, it was sold. Let's compare it to Notre-Dame de Paris, which is also not the most imposing and complicated cathedral in its architecture. Yet, people come from all over the world to admire it. We even cry hot tears when it starts to burn. It's simply because it is the first. It sets the example for all cathedrals that were built afterward. Peace, folks. ☮👈😎

[@TheFootyTrip]

Ahh thank you so much for that. The joy of questioning something is that there is always someone who has some knowledge on the subject. Thank you for the info, always love to learn more 😍

[@LetsChillPage]

@@TheFootyTrip You're welcome. 😊

[@TerraeChannel]

It's funny to see that i was sitting nearly next to you for the hockey (except it was a different game :'D) Everyone was expecting chaos, Parisians fled the capital in masse. And suddenly Paris seems like a well running place! :'D

Thank you for this video and this nice comment ! I just wanted to clarify ... - In French, the sound "ou" is pronounced like: "oo". So you mean 'hymn to love', but we mean 'hymn to death' (death is mort in french). It’s sadder, isn’t it?

[@uiytt8497]

How much money did it cost :o ?

[@DH007-w2d]

A lot, of course as we are talking international event : Céline was here. How will it bring back ? A lot. As for infrastuctures, many are made in kit. One olympic swimming pool was built in a one of the poorest area of the great Paris. Clubs like judo, ping-pong and many others are overflowed with phone calls as kids loved it and fancy The Big Medals. To make a long story short, one city Châteauroux has seen its first tourists for decades, by thousands. Businesses there have made an historical hit. So, yes, those things cost. Ignorance costs much more.

[@TheFootyTrip]

Ooh good question. Maybe €50 a ticket. I can't quite recall. Flights £140 Accommodation £70 a night each person. I haven't added all together but some tough figures

[@uiytt8497]

@@TheFootyTrip Oh the tickets were way cheaper than I expected

[@TheFootyTrip]

I think it varied by event, Athletics would be expensive and some much lower, and free fan zones and road races for running and cycling

[@lulalelilo]

@@uiytt8497 There were different categories of tickets, from very cheap to very expensive. French here, and got lot of friends who attended events, there were tickets for 20-24 euros but they sold out real fast. Tickets price was ranging between 25 and 150 depending on sports, category in the stadium, depending if qualifiers or finals. Finals were around 200-400 for some sports. You had also premium tickets 500-1300€ but from general feedback they were way overpriced. People in Paris usually mixed cheap tickets, spent some 150-200 and for the rest enjoyed the fan zones/club de france to celebrate !

Apologies, it is AI. The caption was sarcasm

[@RobertSmith-up9rz]

The Champions League final debacle was due to British fans showing up at the gate, everyone knows it. Just rewind to the Euro final 2021 to see the same idiotic behavior in London. Happens every time an English club or the national team is in a game. Also, the fact that the Real Madrid side entrances were not as affected confirmed it was 99% the responsibility of British fans. Rest was definitely a few kids from Seine-Saint-Denis coming to take advantage of the chaos.

[@TheFootyTrip]

I wasn't there but I researched a little for making the video and my understanding was that it was badly policed, also that was my memory from the time once all information was made public. I don't disagree about the Euro 21 Final though, that was a bad day for English fans and again, a sheer lack of security. I have travelled many times to watch England and the fans are generally really well behaved.

[@alexandregamb]

@@TheFootyTrip French here.. have to say it. Not sure it was english fan fault in the final.. perhaps there was a little bit of it. But it seems the organisation from the government in France for this event was simply laking. After all.. no matter what we think of fans.. the responsability of the event is on France. Not on the fans.

[@TheFootyTrip]

​@@alexandregambYes I would agree Alexandre. I think the English fan reputation often precedes them and don't get the best treatment. There is plenty of evidence to suggest it was the organisers fault in this case. I will always give an honest view and accept when England is at fault but in this case my belief is that it was the organisation

[@alexandregamb]

@@TheFootyTrip I understand and respect that. Always better to be honest even when things go wrong. Anyway glad you had a good time in Paris. Hope it will be good in USA in 4 years for the next Olympic. Take care.

[@RobertSmith-up9rz]

@@TheFootyTrip It is not my point to trash all English fans, but it is a well-recorded truth that whenever England or an English club is playing there are problems in the city and by the stadium. Again, it is well-recorded. There were about 7,000 policemen between the fan zones and the stadium, much more than for the 2021 Euro final. Again, no such chaos occurred at the Real Madrid entry while it was a giant mess for the Liverpool one, go figure.
