The torch is 72 cm long, weighs 985 grams, burns for 15 minutes, burns normally at a wind speed of no more than 65km h, and has a flame height of 25-30 cm at zero wind speed, which can be identified and photographed in both strong light and daylight.
Beijing 2008 Olympic Torch Creativity. Xiangyun is a representative symbol of Chinese culture, and its cultural concept has a time span of thousands of years in China. Xiangyun is an auspicious cloud pattern of the ancient Han nationality.
Clouds are a common sight in nature and are endowed with auspicious cultural meanings, hence the name. The design of the torch shape is inspired by traditional Chinese paper scrolls. Paper is one of the four great inventions of China, which came to the West through the Silk Road.
Human civilization spread with the advent of paper. The use of lacquer red on the torch from the Han Dynasty makes it clearly different from the torch design of the previous Olympic Games, and the contrast of red and silver colors produces eye-catching visual effects, which is conducive to various forms of ** communication. The upper and lower proportions of the torch are evenly divided, and the auspicious cloud pattern and three-dimensional relief craft design make the whole torch elegant and gorgeous, and the connotation is heavy.

The London 2012 Olympic torch weighs 800g and the entire torch is 80cm long. It is 100g heavier than the 2004 Athens Olympic torch, but 12 centimeters more tall, and due to the choice of material and hollowness, it is 185 grams lighter and 8 centimeters taller than the 2008 Beijing Olympic torch. In terms of the height of the torch, such a weight can already rank among the lightest torches in Olympic history.
The London Olympic torch is engraved with 8,000 rings, a tribute to the life achievements of the 8,000 torchbearers. For the first time in the history of the Olympic Games, the symbol of the torchbearer was also incorporated into the design of the torch, and the human element was added to the torch, which also fully demonstrated the innovative nature of the London Olympic Games.
The top of the torch at the London Olympics is a triangular design, the first triangular torch in Olympic history, and it is all gold. The designers said that the triangle image symbolizes the Olympic slogan of "higher, faster, stronger", and at the same time, the non-circular torch feels better and is easier to be held by the torchbearer.
