After a seven year wait the opening ceremony finally gets underway with 2,008 drummers creating an incredible countdown

 

 

 

 

 

Drums thundered, strobe lights flickered and 14,000 performers poured through the Bird's Nest stadium in a dazzling extravaganza that offered up a vision of global harmony in line with the Games' motto "One World One Dream".









The breathtaking ceremony leaves spectators in awe as dancers covered in light enter the fray to reflect modernity




The crowd are thrilled as a 16-tonne globe dramatically emerges from the arena with dancers circumnavigating the continents
