Largest Human Olympic Rings


Surrey County council had big plans to celebrate World Olympic Day  and that proved to be a good countdown to  welcome London  2012 Games. Children and  sportspersons  along with teachers and councilors joined the bandwagon with pride. It was after all to create the Olympic rings which is held in high regards across the minds of everyone in the world. So it would be nothing like representing the rings. All the participants treated the chance as a great honour. 1,852 persons form George Abbot School and GB athletes  formed Olympic Rings on the School field.
Saliagopoulos Surrey Council’s cabinet minister for Community Services said that it was great to see  so many children make a piece of Olympic history. It was really spectacular to see so many persons being a part of the Olympic Rings. It looked as though even nature had to laud their efforts. The moment the participants broke the record there was a heavy downpour on the field. However instead of dampening their spirits the group took it to their stride. Everyone could not stop smiling.
The event was intended to involve more students into sports. Getting more children into sports would lay an implicit stress on remaining healthy and fit. Further it also teaches the children the values of  working hard with dedication. This would steer them to achieve their goals.
The previous world record for the Largest Human Olympic Rings was set in Beijing,China featuring as  much as 1,202 persons on June 24, 2008.
The Largest Human Olympic Ring  was formed by 1852 people ahead of London games 2012 at Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom on June 30, 2011.
