Physical description

This is a pair of white mittens from the Black Diamond brand, worn by Caryl Cordt-Moller, one of the masked flame bearers. These mittens are open on the palm side of the hand. They are closed with a velcro strip.

Notes

Caryl Cordt-Moller dons the costume of the masked flame bearer on the roofs of the Théâtre du Chatelet, opposite the Conciergerie. The character of the masked torchbearer accompanied all the scenes of this Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024. It was a common thread. Many viewers wondered who could be hiding under the mask of the flame bearer. In reality, nine of them have played this role, among them: Simon Nogueira, Lilou Ruel, Caryl Cordt-Moller, Maxence de Schrooder, Guillaume Larrazabal and Maxime Renaud.
