When a rainstorm put out the Olympic flame during the 1976 Games in Montreal, organisers watched horrified as a helpful official quickly re-lit it with his cigarette lighter. They then snuffed it out again and re-lit it with a backup torch lit from the original flame.
1976年蒙特利爾奧運(yùn)會(huì)期間，一場(chǎng)暴雨澆滅了奧運(yùn)圣火，奧運(yùn)會(huì)組織者看到一位幫倒忙的官員迅速用他的打火機(jī)重新點(diǎn)燃圣火都嚇傻了。他們趕緊把火炬熄滅，然后用一個(gè)備用火炬重新點(diǎn)燃了圣火，備用火炬的火種來(lái)自最初的奧運(yùn)圣火。

小編說(shuō)：奧運(yùn)圣火怎么能用打火機(jī)點(diǎn)燃呢？Too naive！

For the first time in Olympic history, Romania's Nadia Comaneci scored a maximum 10.0 in the uneven bars at Montreal 1976. Scoreboards were unable to cope and so displayed the score as 1.0.
1976年蒙特利爾奧運(yùn)會(huì)上，羅馬尼亞選手娜迪亞?科馬內(nèi)奇獲得高低杠滿(mǎn)分10分，這在奧運(yùn)會(huì)上屬于首次。由于記分牌無(wú)法顯示10分，只好顯示其得分為1.0分。

小編說(shuō)：記分牌設(shè)置也太保守了！

The Olympics once lasted 187 days. In 1908, the London Olympics went on for 187 days... they started in April and didn't end until October.
史上歷時(shí)最久的奧運(yùn)會(huì)持續(xù)了187天。1908年的倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)4月開(kāi)幕，到10月才閉幕，一直開(kāi)了187天。

小編說(shuō)：開(kāi)那么久，是一天只比一個(gè)項(xiàng)目嗎？
