I found this picture using StumbleUpon today and I thought I should share it with you.

The picture was originally from Peking Olympische Spiele 2008 – wie das Logo entstand- a german site.

Edit:
On February 8th Harvard Mossige posted a comment showing an quick animation he made for the Beijing 2008 Olympics Logo- I thought it was great! Thanks for that!

This is his animation that can also be found here.

It is reminiscent of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests- you can learn more about this awful massacre here and here.
