How the Olympic Flame Travels Across the Atlantic. Hint, it’s Way Better than You Do

That’s right, the olympic flame pictured above on it’s flight from Greece to Canada, has more leg room than you or  I have ever had ( and my twitter name, thattallguy, doesn’t lie)

As Adam from Gizmodo writes

I love symbolic gestures as much as the next guy, but is flying the olympic flame from Greece to Canada in a bunch of miner’s lanterns spread across six airplane seats really necessary? [The Big Picture]

All this to make sure the flame doesn’t go out…like it hasn’t done so in the past. I’m sure all those guys above have lighters in their pockets
