Original Note:
The giant character in the image is not a figure of death as claimed, but rather a depiction of dark wizard Lord Voldemort, the main antagonist in the British-written book and movie series Harry Potter. The character is shown holding a magic wand, not a needle. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/12/08/fact-check-london-olympics-show-lord-voldemort-not-death-figure/6420825001/ https://www.huffpost.com/entry/london-olympics-voldemort-mary-poppins_n_1710785/amp https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN22Q30V/
