London2012 cauldron returns to life again

By Magdalena Stanislav


LONDON (TheSportsNext) July 30, 2012: The London2012 cauldron which was extinguished for relocation to another place of the stadium on Sunday, returned to life as the organizer relit at 7am local time (0600 GMT) here Monday.

It was reported on Sunday that the Olympic cauldron, which traditionally stays buring during the course of the Games, was seen unlit at around 11.14pm local time (2214 GMT).



The organizers then came up with the statement that they had put the cauldron off to relocate it to other part of the stadium.

Jackie Brock-Doyle, director of communications for the London Olympics organizers told local media, "The cauldron has been put out while we move it to another part of the stadium”.

It is important to mention here that the London 2012 cauldron was originally situated right in the middle of the stadium and even after relocation it is not visible from the outside which has attracted fair bit of criticism because traditionally the cauldron can be seen burning from outside of the Games’ stadium.
