Behind the scenes: how the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Torches, Rings, and Agitos came to life

Paralympic Olympic rings.

The four-day Paralympic Torch relay reached its final destination, lighting up the Opening Ceremony (28 August) for the Paralympics in Paris. From 25 August to 28 August, 1,000 Forerunners carried the Paralympic flame from its starting place in Stoke Mandeville in England, the birthplace of the Paralympics. It journeyed through the channel tunnel, split into 12 separate flames upon its arrival in Calais, then travelled across 50 cities in France.

Now, coinciding with the start of the Paralympics, steel and mining company ArcelorMittal has released a three-part behind-the-scenes video series, unmasking the creative process behind the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Torches, Rings, and Agitos.
