Here's an interesting fun fact: this is the first time ever that a swimmer is the Hungarian flag bearer at the Opening ceremony. I think this is mostly because swimmers usually aren't able to participate as they have events the next day. I am sure Egerszegi and/or Darnyi would have been flag bearers during the 90s if their events weren't so close to the ceremony.

Here in Egypt they announce the name just a day before Opening Ceremony really don't know why,  hopefully they'll make it boy and girl and I think Alaaeldin Abouelkassem and Hedaya Malak are the ones that deserve this honour
