Later this month, it will head to the bottom of Lake Balkai, the world's deepest lake and before it all comes to an end on February 2014, even make its way to the peak of Mount Elbrus and The ritual of lighting a flame with a torch to mark the beginning of the Olympic games was started by the Greek in 776 B.C. when the first games were held at Olympia and continued until they came to a halt, about a thousand years later. My opinion of this article is that this is amazing that they are going to take the torch to space and to the deepest lake.
