Did you know, the Olympic torch relay made its first appearance at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin? Carl Diem, the secretary general of the organizing committee of the Berlin games, proposed the relay after he was inspired by the torch that had burned over the 1928 games in Amsterdam. On May 13, 1931 the International Olympic Committee selected Berlin as the site of the 1936 Olympic Games. (Universal Newsreel footage via CriticalPast) | American Experience | PBS
