The Olympics, Explained

[@IzHarris]

I AM LOVING ALL OF THIS LEARNINGGGG!

[@rhondaclements2090]

Well thought out and a great summary!

[@SMald87]

Actually in school in Spanish, they teach you that the Americas is actually one continent. The division is done more recent due to political influence. But we're 1 continent, 1 soul. Thank you for your cool video!!

[@BrightTripTravel]

Thanks 😊

[@AquiNinoska]

I enjoyed this video, thanks 😊

[@shreyaprakash]

So true.. The story of the olympics gives an insight into what was happening at that time in the world!

[@GrinReaper-b7x]

Thanks for the history of Olympics

[@fabs21]

Very underrated video!!

[@BrightTripTravel]

We agree 😎

[@kamarpreet]

This is a really amazing video. Loved the history and perspective on the games.

[@cunningham-code]

That 2002 Salt Lake City Opening Ceremony still gives me chills. Esp the national anthem performance.

[@shannonstiles7405]

Jim Thorpe should absolutely be “felt bad for.” It was not because “he was just the only one who didn’t lie.” He was discriminated against all along the way because he was Native American. Kind of a sad part of history to mention but breeze over. In general love your videos, though.

[@BrightTripTravel]

Thank you for this, we really appreciate it!

@@BrightTripTravel In 1983, 30 years after his death, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) restored his Olympic medals with replicas, after ruling that the decision to strip him of his medals fell outside of the required 30 days. Official IOC records still listed Thorpe as co-champion in decathlon and pentathlon until 2022, when it was decided to restore him as the sole champion in both events.

The first Olympics was held in Greece in 776 BC then transferred to the Philippines the next year...

Hi. Great video. I am making a video of my own for English language learners. I was wondering if you ran into any copyright issues given that you used footage from the Olympics

[@parulchaudhary2314]

I am so excited for the Olympics tomorrow🎉

[@sinan_3384]

I’ve always found it absolutely ridiculous how St. Louis and Atlanta have hosted Olympic Games before cities like New York, Istanbul or Madrid. Especially Istanbul which is one of the most historic cities in human history given its place in the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman Empires. Like imagine St. Louis, Missouri over a city like that??

[@lukepascal6023]

you do post good stuff!

[@BrightTripTravel]

All the time 😎

[@donnajones1664]

I am learning how Olympic started

[@arturowagner4728]

France, along with Spain, Portugal, Italy and Latin America subscribe to the five continent school of geography. That´s why there are five rings on the Olympic flag: Oceania (blue), Africa (black), Europe (red), Asia (yellow) America green).

[@AlexGlod]

Awesome video, guys!

[@BrightTripTravel]

Thanks so much!

The Olympics aren’t even half of competitive stuff it’s more of defiance against the horrible stuff happening in the world it’s amazing

Omg at my school it says it is not how u start but how u finish❤

[@murilotouro]

the reason why the americas were counted as one: America IS one continent lol

[@kensimpson2925]

I love this channel and its purpose. I just really wish the content was better vetted? The anecdote about Hitler isn't entirely true. Why teach history if not fully factual? A month after the Olympic Games, Owens told a crowd, “Hitler didn’t snub me-it was [Roosevelt] who snubbed me."

[@BrightTripTravel]

Thanks for raising our attention to that, we really appreciate it!

[@briangulo]

"Americas counting as one for some reason" yeah cause America is one continent

[@garrettsmith419]

North America and South America are two continents.

[@briangulo]

@@garrettsmith419 the north of Europe and the south of Europe are not 2 continents, why would America be different, the north of the earth and the south of the earth are different planets then 🤣😅

[@garrettsmith419]

@@briangulo I never said North “of” America or South “of” America. There’s North America and then there’s South America. Two whole continents. Just like Europe and Africa are two whole continents.

The five rings had a different meaning before they were applied to 5 continents.... they were an homage to the original Pagan patron gods

[@justingroff3682]

The real Christian reason to get rid of the Olympics the only verse I can think of as a Christian myself would be Paul saying, physical exercise, profits little but spiritual exercise profits much. But he is still saying that it is good for something and that’s just working out in general, not competing at a high level in this case the highest level. I think that competition is healthy for men. It is a good way for them to get out their testosterone without killing each other. so I disagree with the Roman emperor that got rid of it temporarily trying to claim that it is unbiblical he’s not right about that. Every Christian university, including the one I went to Cedarville in Ohio has and respects, and is proud of their sports there is nothing wrong with being proud of athleticism now the vanity and glory and marketing and commercialism and the fact that some players get 100 million and others get less than 200 grand contracts is really messed up and reminds me of Hollywood. we basically idolize only a couple different kinds of people on earth we idolize Rockstars, the most, for example, I idolize Trey Anastasio. In my opinion, he is the best band ever and he created it. And they are still going hard like The Rolling Stones…still rollin’ like a terrible limp bizkit song. They are one of the worst bands ever, but I’m sure someone still idolizes Fred Durst somewhere on the planet he has one fan left along with that hotdog, flavored water and chocolate starfish to keep him company. The other group is celebrities in general like Tom Cruise and the third group is Michael Jordan of course this is why in part I am against the idea of a spectrum of genders there must be two genders and they must be kept separate in order to be not only truthful but fair and just and we are seeing this in sports and we are also seeing it in a disgusting way in bathrooms. Imagine if you have a two year-old daughter and a pedophile is now allowed to pretend to be a woman and walk into the bathroom and either be a simple voyeur all the way up to a pedophile rapist. And molester or groper kidnapper in between. Of course she would not be OK with this. But to affirm trans rights the mother would have to be ok with it to be logically consistent. The same is true of murder. A mother would say I would never murder my child probably but many have in fact I would say more than 50% have. I am not talking about Plan B or birth control I am talking about actual abortion which is murder. we all instinctively know it’s murder but because of a mother’s convenience, we call it a right because children are very expensive. They potentially ruin your body, beautiful stomach and vagina especially if like my wife you have to have C-sections. It is not very fun or flattering or cheap. Having children is very expensive and that is the real reason why people get rid of them they are an expensive problem. Less than one percent of the time it is because of rape or incest, and they don’t want to associate with what happened to them, and on those rare cases which are extremely rare, I would understand if a person got an abortion. It is still murder But it’s capital punishment. It is murder that makes sense then and is somewhat morally and biblically justifiable. The whole trans thing is opening up a can of worms like no other since Roe versus Wade. The argument on the Democrat side goes it is a woman’s body and therefore her right, but it is not like cancer, which are free radicals, but technically the woman’s DNA still Children are not cancer. And they are not 100% the woman’s DNA either the mother has 50% of DNA in the child but so does the father no one says it is father right to kill their children, but it’s half theirs too. It is only said this way because the mother has to bear for nine months of pain. Because men don’t have to actually give birth, which is the most painful thing on earth besides methadone withdrawal root canals, and being shot in the bone in your femur. And burn pain those are the most excruciating pains that any man can go through anywhere near as painful as birth. So I get why they want to say that it is 100% their DNA but that’s a lie and we all know it’s a lie. It is a new body like every snowflake and fingerprint is unique. I am not my father or mother and if they would’ve killed me, it would’ve really sucked. Wouldn’t be able to type this for one and express my valid opinions and Biblical beliefs
