Fascinating Videos Show How Some Olympic Sports Have Evolved From 1912 To 2020

Here’s a series of fascinating “Then and Now” videos presented by The Olympics that show us how some of the Olympic spots have evolved from the 1912 games in Stockholm to the 2020 games in Tokyo.

While the technology and mechanics of sports have changed, the basic premise has mostly remained the same. The biggest difference is the Women’s 10m High Dive, which in 1912 consisted of just running off a platform and diving.

Witness the evolution of technique, precision, and athleticism as divers from different eras compete for Olympic glory. This video celebrates the rich history of diving while showcasing the incredible progress and innovation that has taken place over the past century.

I always enjoy watching the Olympic games and it’s really interesting and cool to take a look back at the past and see what it was like over 100 years ago.

Enjoy the videos!
