clarification 1.
Though Bartholdi did place lighting within the torch initially, the idea of adding a series of floodlights to the balcony of the torch was not introduced until much later in the 20th century as the lights that were originally placed inside were not strong enough. However, this idea was scrapped due to the concerns over the pilots. We apologize for any confusion that the wording of the video may have caused.”
