Were you amazed as I was at the Olympic opening ceremonies when the fireworks appeared to create giant footprints moved toward the stadium. You may have asked yourself "how did they do that?"
Well, now we know: they faked it!
It was all computer generated for the TV audience. It took them more than a year to create the sequence for the broadcast on Friday. They even worked to recreate the haze that the smog creates at night, and inserted a shaky helicopter shot.
A few weeks ago, Iran was caught "photoshopping" a picture of a missle launch, when one of the missles was a dud.
Don't believe everything you see, especially from countries such as China and Iran.
