The Lord of the Rings Olympic Rivalry tells the story of the timeless games where orcs and men go head-to-head for gold glory.
This re-edited version of Lord of the Rings is cut and spliced to make it seem like the characters are training and competing in the Middle Earth Olympic Games. The best part is how they have re-cut the scene in which an orc is suicide bombing the Helms Deep wall into the running of the torch that's an iconic symbol of the Olympics.
Somehow, the creators of the video have managed to put themselves into the movie scenes without making it seem extremely fake. They interact with the fictional characters as if they were meant to be in the original movie.
While the athletes on planet earth are exciting, they're nothing compared to the likes of Gimili and Legolas at the Lord of the Rings Olympic Rivalry Games.
