Confirmed, a bit disappointing really. Overall though the ceremony was good, some parts were a bit meh. Gaze commentating was quite annoying he only made comments about Basketball and I can't believe we didn't get to see Malta, the camera was on the Boomers at the time.Can someone confirm to me what I think just happened... the Olympic cauldron was lit by a bunch of ****s noone has heard of?
We really need to find out who it wasOh God, some muppet wrapping the flag around himself as he marches in. Always be wary of people who wrap themselves in the flag. Usually they're ****s. Bet it was Nick Darcy.
Wow!Korean archer, legally blind in 1 eye, sets WR
South Korea's Im Dong-Hyun, who is legally blind in one eye, broke his own archery world record Friday during the men's ranking round at the London Olympics.
Im's score of 699 broke the previous 72-arrow record of 696 he set in May of this year.
The 26-year-old archer has bad vision in his right eye and is legally blind in his left. He said he wouldn't get too excited about the result because it's only the first round.
The Koreans broke their 216-arrow world record with 2,087 points as Kim Bubmin and Oh Jin-Hyek placed second and third -- Kim also broke Im's old individual mark.
France, China, the United States and Japan finished second through fifth in that order. Canada's Crispin Duenas placed eighth in the individual ranking round.
The last country other than South Korea to win a gold medal in the men's team competition was the U.S. in 1996.
probably an advantage, saves closing the other eye
