China - Beijing - Bird's Nest (2008 Olympics Opening Ceremony Crowds)

2008 Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony crowds. Around 100,000 spectators, performers and staff attended the event. The ceremony was directed by Zhang Yimou, who's movies I've been admiring for years. The Ceremony was the greatest spectacle I have ever witnessed, opening with 2008 fou drummers and finishing with this scene of the athletes pouring to the National Stadium.
