1972 Olympic Games Munich Official Relay Torch German Germany by Krupp

Colour: Silver
Height: 72cm
Composition: Metal, steel
Fuel: Liquid gas composed of 24 per cent propane and 76 per cent butane, contained in an aluminium cartridge. The combustion duration is 15 to 22 minutes.
Designer / Manufacturer: Friedrich Krupp AG / Olympiagas, Hagri

The Krupp company also produced the torch for the Berlin 1936 Games.
Two pilot lights were produced. They are fed by propane gas and can burn uninterrupted for at least six weeks.
So that the flame could travel the distance from Munich to Kiel in exactly 49 hours, all of the torchbearers were requested, whether they were on foot, on a bike, on horseback, motorcycle or in a rowing boat, to go at their maximum speed and to continue the relay both day and night.
The cauldron for this edition of the Games was formed by a burner made up of two concentric rings of fire, each with 21 gas jets. Two metres in diameter, the burner was set on a four-metre-high column made of pipe. Two years of development were necessary for the realisation of the cauldron.

Adolf Hitler saw the link with the ancient Games as the perfect way to illustrate his belief that classical Greece was an Aryan forerunner of the modern German Reich.

"The sportive, knightly battle awakens the best human characteristics. It doesn't separate, but unites the combatants in understanding and respect. It also helps to connect the countries in the spirit of peace.
That's why the Olympic Flame should never die."

— Adolf Hitler, commenting on the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games
The event was designed to demonstrate the growing influence and power of the Third Reich. It was internationally viewed as a great success, sufficient for it to be replicated in all Games thereafter.

Leni Riefenstahl, a film-maker admired by Hitler, filmed the relay for the 1938 release Olympia. While the film is often seen as a prime example of Nazi propaganda,[6] it has also been hailed as one of the greatest films of all time and won many awards upon its release.
