The detailed schedule of the Olympic torch relay has been determined, and it has been detailed to each day and to each province and city. The reporter learned from the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee that the planned route was slightly adjusted from the torch relay plan announced by the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee in April this year, and the time for the Olympic flame to be lit was advanced by one day.
On 24 March next year (originally scheduled for 25 March), the flame will be lit in Olympia, Greece, and the Olympic flame will be relayed in Greece for six days, and a handover ceremony will be held in Athens on 30 March to officially hand over the Olympic flame to Beijing.
Due to the unilateral termination of the Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee's consultation and talks with the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee on the entry of the torch into Taiwan, the International Olympic Committee cancelled the entry of the Olympic torch into Taiwan. As a result, the number of cities carrying the torch for the Beijing Olympic Games has been reduced to 21. The Olympic flame will enter Hong Kong on 2 May after the relay in Ho Chi Minh City on 29 April next year.
It is reported that during the relay of the Olympic flame in China, it will be carried in a maximum of three cities in one day. For example, on July 21 next year, the Olympic flame will be relayed in Benxi City, Liaoyang City and Anshan City in Liaoning Province. On the evening of 8 August, the flame will enter the Bird's Nest to light the cauldron of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

However, there have been five times in history that torches have been extinguished, some people have used fire extinguishers to extinguish torches, and some people have accidentally dropped torches on the ground and caused them to go out.

1.Yao. 2.Li ning.
Correct answer: Li Ning.
On August 8, 2008, the 29th Summer Olympic Games were held at the National Stadium "Bird's Nest" in the Beijing Olympic Park. Li Ning lit the cauldron of the Beijing Olympic Games, and the Olympic flame burned over the Bird's Nest. The cauldron of the Beijing Olympics was lit by gymnast Li Ning in a "trapeze" way.
The cauldron is 32 meters long, weighs 45 tons and has a maximum diameter of 12 meters. The main cauldron usually lies on the top of the "Bird's Nest", and it can not be pushed out and turned up until the last moment before the ignition, so that the lower part of the torch tower and the bowl belt above the "Bird's Nest" can be seamlessly connected, which is very difficult. "45 tons is just the weight of the torch tower itself, there are running trolleys and track equipment under it, plus the roof beams, the total weight that actually falls on the bird's nest is 405 tons. >>>More
