Differences between USA and AUS broadcasts of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games Opening Ceremony (archive.org)

On Friday, July 26, 2024, during the opening ceremonies of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, an artistic performance intended to be a part of the planned program was not broadcast in the United States.

At approximately two hours into the broadcast, shortly after the introduction of France's athletes (the last group to be introduced), the program moved to a series of music and dance performances, including a floating disco and a Dionysian feast.

During this, the US broadcast cut away to advertising breaks and exclusive interviews with US-based athletes while audiences outside the US remained with the main program.

This video features a side-by-side comparison of this portion of the live broadcasts into Australia (via the broadcaster Stan.) and the United States (via the broadcaster NBC) to illustrate the differences between what was presented to each audience.

Audio for each broadcast has been isolated onto opposing audio channels (US on the left, Australia on the right), allowing viewers to use headphones to selectively listen to either channel alone, or both at the same time.

I’d recommend watching it on a phone or laptop with headphones with one of the ear pieces taken out.

I tried uploading the unedited clip on its own a few days ago, but it was removed for violating copyright. Compositing the videos together counts as new/unique content, and the muxed audio does help bolster this claim.

If you have a vpn, you might try opening a connection within one of the counties that is streaming the games for free and try to watch on one of their websites.
