Cardinal Scheid noted that the statue symbolized the joyous, embracing qualities of the "Cariocas" or citizens of Rio, and indeed of all Brazilians.After the handover, a group of samba dancers from the Grande Rio samba school danced to the contagious beat of their band. Dressed in their Carnaval finest with high feathered headdresses and glitter, the dancers celebrated the passion of the Brazilian people. The many journalists and tourists who were there could not help but move with the music - just like the New7Wonders team!
