The cynic in me is here again
They have just unveiled the design for the Olympic torch and Health & Safety immediately sprung to mind.
They will we assume wear
Fire proof helmets just in case the wind blows and sets their hair on fire
Gloves in case it gets hot and burns their hands
Safety glasses in case sparks fly (you have to wear them if you play conkers)
Face guard for the same reason
Full fire proof clothing (fluorescent of course) in case they fall over and land on the torch
Carry a fire extinguisher and first aid kit
Have individual public Liability Insurance and personal insurance
Oh and lets not forget safety shoes
Did I miss anything
