OLYMPIC EXPERIENCE 1 x 58'
The Olympic Games... the supreme sporting challenge every four years brings the world to a riveting halt, as the super athletes reach for the greatest prize - Olympic Gold. Over the years
the games have witnessed incredible feats, innovative techniques, immense courage and daring, political protests and even cold blooded murder in Munich in 1972.
The Games survived this and other political assaults because the desire among the world's sportsmen and women to reach out to become faster, higher and stronger is the greater force.
The Olympic Experience captures all these emotions in a vivid canvas of winning and loosing, best expressed by the founder of the Modern Games Baron Pierre de Coubertin; ‘The most
important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part.’
