TBWA\Tequila Hong Kong continues their "Beijing Moments" campaign for Adidas, now with posters depicting athletes from around the world with "the whole country behind them" - like the original thought in their "Together in 2008 Impossible is nothing" campaign previously shown here in Adland, depicting thousands of fellow countrymen giving a helping hand to the athletes. You can also see the campaign at adidas.com/beijingmoments Ok that totally stopped working for me so good luck with that I swear it was working a minute ago.
I find the first one kind of creepy due to recent activity around here. But that's probably just me.

The Tyson Guy shot is the only one that really works, IMHO. That ad looks perfect. I'm not so keen on the typography treatment in the Olympic Adidas campaigns. Feels so forced.
