Official video of Paris 2024 opening ceremony 'is deleted from Olympics account' as viewers' backlash grows - and fans flock to praise London 2012 showcase which remains online

The official video of the Paris 2024 opening ceremony appears to have been deleted from the Olympics account as viewers' backlash grows - with fans flocking to praise the London 2012 showcase, which remains online.

Social media users shared a screenshot of the organisation's footage, which showed a blank screen with the caption 'this video is not available'.

Meanwhile, the show also does not appear to be on their YouTube channel - despite there being coverage of the games both before and after the ceremony.

And full-length versions of the ceremonies for London 2012, Rio 2016, Beijing 2022 and even Nagano 1998 are all available.

Neither the Olympics nor the Paris games have given any reason for this apparent omission. Both have been contacted for comment.

It comes after the event was dubbed the 'worst ever' and sparked backlash as it was carried out amid appalling weather.

Among the various artistic tableaus, named after French values such as freedom, fraternity and equality, it was the last supper-style performance in 'festivité' - or party - scene which caused the most controversy.

Notice they didn’t make fun of Islam?

They’d be dead if they had.

Now, they’ll just face eternal damnation instead.

Those London fagg#ts had a bunch of adult babies dancing behind an NIH government crib system. Hardly better!

The Marie part was the only good part, and that had nothing to do with the dinner scene; the Marie segment was done by the French metal band Gojira

Absolutely, it was disgraceful. BLOOD COLORED STREAMERS... I turned it off. There was no way I was going to watch the rest of the depravity.

Why so much love for London which was 3 games ago and which featured them boasting about their NHS with a stupid Busby Berkly show of old 40s ward beds dancing around?

It was disgusting. The kind of thing Moslems would love.

I don’t care what you think of the royals. Having that horrid image in every other window was just beyond the pale. Decent people skip over those untoward parts of history and don’t revel in it.

This was a great basic concept with the river. But the execution was poor.

Well, it starred Rowan Atkinson - which probably makes it the greatest opening ceremony of all time no matter what else happened. :)

Satan is overlord in this Paris Olympics program.

Our Lord Christ will win the battle.

And Satan’s minions know it.

You have to admit, the Utah Olympics opening ceremony was the polar opposite of the latest.

It was disgusting. Nobody says they are related per se. They are all part of the same depraved spectacle. No matter where one stands on monarchy, that was a brutal murder and nothing a national event should cast as funny.

Yes, and Marie Antoinette was posthumously maligned as a prostitute and as callous and cruel, for instance, the preposterous allegation that she had told the French people to eat cake in the absence of bread.

At her show trial, she was accused of all the above, as well as having consummated an incestuous relationship with her eight- year- old son.🤮

One can only wonder at the depths of evil into which the accusers at this kangaroo court descended, and the Queen did not fight for her life anymore, thus not enabling them to humiliate her even more.

She knew that she was doomed, and the death sentence was a foregone conclusion, she just managed to fight for her dignity as a human being.

The Great Revolution. My foot🤬

A very queer Parisian theatre director devised all of this nonsense
