GE Wind Energy "Discus" 2008 Beijing Olympic Commercial

GE, General Electric 2008 Beijing Olympic commercial titled "Discus". This great commercial created by BBDO New York just for the Olympic Games has some interesting comments, you come to your own conclusions about General Electrics claims on wind energy.
Hoping to keep things unpolitical here at Great Ads, this GE "Discus" Olympic commercial is great.

" ... Wind hasn't always played a helpful role at the Olympic games, but today wind energy is helping power the Beijing Olympic games; no matter which way the wind is blowing".

I love this great commercial just a little more because the General Electric, GE commercial for Olympic Games in Beijing 2008, was filmed in Jastrebarsko, Croatia, which is not from where my family is originally from.
