10 Best Olympic Opening Ceremonies Of All Time, Ranked

As the venue for Tokyo’s 1964 Olympic Opening Ceremony, the National Stadium hosted a moment rich in history as the first Olympics to be broadcast live internationally and in colour, with Emperor Hirohito, in whose name the Pearl Harbor attacks were carried out, opening proceedings from a special box. The most memorable image came when Yoshinori Sakai, born in Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, the very day the city was bombed, lit the flame despite never having competed in the Games, symbolising a new and peaceful direction for the nation. - Joel Meares
