The first Olympic cauldron was in 1952, when the 6th Winter Games were held in Oslo, Norway. Organizers were in the fireplace of a stone house in the village of Morgelda, south of the city, the former home of Nordheim, the founder of Norwegian skiing
The torch was lit by drilling wood and then carried on a 225-kilometer torch relay. The flame was lit by Egil Nansen, grandson of the famous Norwegian explorer Fridiov Nansen.
After the 7th and 8th Winter Olympics, the same method of collecting fire was used. The flame of the 7th Olympic Games was lit by the famous Italian male figure skater Guido Caroli. In the 8th Winter Olympic Games, two-time Winter Olympic champion Ann Lawrence Mead held high the flame from distant Norway, flying down the steep slope of the snow, Olympic speed skating champion Ken Henry took the flame around the stadium, and then lit up the Olympic flame, the atmosphere of the general assembly to the climax.
In 1964, the tinder was lit from Olympia, the birthplace of the Games, in line with the Summer Olympics. The man who lit the flame was Austrian alpine skier Joseph Reid.
In 1972, at the opening ceremony of the 11th Winter Olympics in Sapporo, Japan, the last person to light the main torch was Japanese schoolboy Hideki Takada. This is the first time in the history of the Winter Olympics that this honor has been bestowed on a student to express their expectations for the future.
The main site of the 1976 Winter Olympics featured two fire towers, one 12 years old and one newly built. During the opening ceremony, Austrian luger Josef Festermantel first lit the flame on the new tower, and then his compatriot and alpine skier Crystal Haas lit the old torch tower. Two towers burn day and night at the same time, marking the Tyrol capital as twice the host of the Winter Olympics.
In 1980, the person who lit the torch in the stadium of the 13th Winter Olympics was different from the past. The person who lit the torch was not a well-known athlete or socialite in the country, but a 45-year-old Lake Placid citizen with five children, Dr. Charles Morgan Kerr.
It was Yugoslav women's figure skating champion Sandra Dubravsic, 21, who lit the main court fire at the 14th Winter Olympics.

One route, one spark, the Olympic Games keep the Olympic flame pure by strict tradition. The person in charge of the Beijing Olympic Torch Relay Center told reporters that only the torch collected from the Olympic torch relay can be used during the entire relay process, and the torch cannot be separated for more than one relay activity at the same time.
The Olympic flame is usually lit in front of the Temple of Hera in Olympia, Greece, the birthplace of the Games, several months before the Games begin. The way the flame is lit follows the ancient Greek tradition, by the chief priestess at Olympia
Temple of Hera
The only way to collect the Olympic flame is to recite a tribute to the sun god and then ignite the flame by focusing the sun's rays on the center of the concave mirror. The whole process was solemn and there were no crowds watching. After the flame is lit, the flame is placed in an ancient brazier and carried by the chief priestess to the altar inside the ancient Olympic stadium, where the flame is displayed to those waiting there, and the torch is lit in the hand of the first torchbearer, then. Begins its journey to the Olympic host city.
In order to maintain the purity of the Olympic flame, during the entire torch relay, only the flame collected from the Olympic Games can be used for transmission, and the flame cannot be mixed with any other symbolic flame. The host cities of the previous Olympic Games will greet the flame at the Panathenian Stadium in Greece after the flame has completed its journey through Greece. There, the flame of the Olympic flame will be placed into several flame lamps. According to the requirements of the International Olympic Committee, the torch relay should keep the flame burning during the torch relay, the flame flame can not be extinguished during the transmission process from Olympia to the Olympic Games host city, once the torch is extinguished, it must be ignited by a special guard runner with the flame flame inside the flame lamp to ensure that the Olympic Games opening ceremony the main torch is lit by the Olympic flame from Olympia.
The torch relay for the Beijing Olympics will follow this principle. The person in charge of the Beijing Olympic Torch Relay Center said that after the completion of the torch relay in Greece, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee will go to the Panathenian Stadium in Greece and welcome the flame back to Beijing with a flame lamp. Starting from Beijing, the flame will be divided into two ways, all the way to
Almaty
Start the journey of overseas transmission; The other way will go
Xizang
In May, the flame will be carried to Mount Everest and displayed to the world.
The torch will not be lit during its arrival on Everest, as IOC rules prohibit more than one relay from taking place at the same time. When the torch reaches Mount Everest and is lit, all relay activities outside Mount Everest must be suspended to ensure that only the single torch on Mount Everest burns the Olympic flame at this moment. After the torch is extinguished, the relay activities beyond Mount Everest will continue. When the torch relay is passed to Lhasa, Tibet, it will join the flame on Mount Everest and continue to pass until it enters the main venue of the Beijing Olympic Games and lights the main torch.
The Olympic torch is a hand-held torch approved by the International Olympic Committee for the burning of the Olympic flame. The Olympic torch is the carrier of the Olympic flame. Since the 11th Olympic Games in 1936, each Olympic Games has given birth to a torch that reflects the cultural characteristics of the host country and meets the requirements of high technology, and has become an important legacy of the Olympic movement.
The Beijing Olympic torch is 72 cm long, weighs 985 grams, burns for 15 minutes, has a flame height of 25 to 30 cm at zero wind speed, and can be identified and photographed under strong light and daylight conditions. In the process, the use of cone surface shape molding technology and aluminum corrosion, coloring technology. The fuel is propane, which meets environmental requirements. The torch shape is made of recyclable and environmentally friendly materials. The whole torch is elegant and gorgeous, rich in connotation, with strong Chinese characteristics, and harmoniously combines Chinese culture with the Olympic spirit. The concept of "coexistence of origin, harmony and integration" is a unique interpretation of the Olympic spirit and the connotation of the Olympic flame. The integration of Chinese elements such as auspicious clouds, lacquer red, and paper scrolls makes the ancient Oriental civilization and the modern Olympic spirit perfectly combine once again, bursting out a dazzling spark.
The creative inspiration of the Beijing Olympic Torch comes from the "auspicious cloud" pattern of "origin coexistence, harmony and integration". The cultural concept of Xiangyun has a time span of thousands of years in China, and it is a representative symbol of Chinese culture. The design of the torch shape is inspired by traditional Chinese paper scrolls. Paper is Chinese
Four great inventions
One, by
Silk Road
Spread to the West. Human civilization spread with the advent of paper. The application of lacquer red in the torch from the Han Dynasty makes it significantly different from the torch design of the previous Olympic Games, and the contrasting color of red and silver produces striking visual effects, which is conducive to various forms of media communication. The upper and lower proportion of the torch is evenly divided, and the auspicious cloud pattern and three-dimensional relief design make the whole torch elegant and gorgeous and heavy connotation.
The Beijing Olympic torch has reached a new technical height in terms of combustion stability and adaptability to the external environment, which can keep burning in strong winds of 65 kilometers per hour and heavy rain of 50 millimeters per hour. In the process of using thin and high-quality aluminum alloy and hollow plastic parts design, very light. The lower part is sprayed with high touch plastic paint, which feels comfortable and is not easy to slip. The Beijing Olympic Torch is the product of China's independent design and research, and has complete intellectual property rights.
The Beijing Olympic torch is fueled by propane, an inexpensive and commonly used fuel. Its main components are carbon and hydrogen, only carbon dioxide and water after combustion, no other substances, will not cause pollution to the environment.
The design and planning of the torch for the Beijing Olympic Games began in August 2005. Based on the concept of Beijing Olympic Games, the design concept, design requirements and creation methods of the torch are determined through the analysis of the previous Olympic torch design experience. According to the characteristics of the industrial design of the torch, in order to achieve the perfect combination of art and technology in the design scheme, with the approval of the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games office, the design of the torch is determined to take artistic modeling as the lead, combustion technology and industrial design simultaneously solicitation, public solicitation and directed commissioned creation.
On December 6, 2005, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games held a press conference and issued an open invitation for the design of the torch. As of February 28, 2006, BOCOG has received a total of 847 entries submitted by design agencies and designers at home and abroad, of which 388 are valid entries.
After the preliminary evaluation and review Committee of the Torch Design Collection for the Beijing Olympic Games made the preliminary evaluation and re-evaluation of the submitted works, 3 works were selected and submitted to the Executive Committee of the Beijing Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games for review in accordance with the provisions of the evaluation procedure. From June to August 2006, according to the principle of selecting the best artistic design and technical design, the BOCOG Executive Committee deliberated and determined the shape of the torch "Auspicious Cloud" designed by Lenovo (Beijing) Co., Ltd. innovation design Center
