This ain't a fuckin game
+SodaDuck McFarland ''twas a game of hand ball friend
stupid it is
Lol super facts
@@billymcleod1963 go to prison Billy you’ll see it’s the#1 game played in the joint
Handball is such a dope game man, I feel like if more people knew about it theyd love it. I used to play with my buddies all the time, I'm defiently a amatuer but its a blast. Theres also playing softball, real handball the ball is hard as f
Bro growing up and playing Handball in Cali most likely you’re probably in a hood court. You’re gonna get hit up by he homies who run the park and are gonna test you in a game of handball so be ready. Handball is hella fun and tiring, respect and durance is what it’s about.
Classic four wall handball does use a harder ball which moves faster. This is cooler though, and the culture is cool, and the man to man contact is probably greater even if the ball is slower and softer. One wall vs four wall changes a lot of the angles, but all the fastest volleys in four wall are back and forth of front wall anyways so you know big ball/one wall is lit. Both are cool sports. No small ball street ball unfortunately, and precious little in the gyms even.
No one was like yo thats blake griffin playing handball? lol
Word... On another note, I hope he wasn't playing serious against him😂
+RJ. its called security
+Ski Dabs its a public court
+RJ. They most likely had a permit to have the place to them self in order to film this segment.
+RJ. It's the court at West 4th in NYC. Famous streetball court. It's not that unusual to see NBA players there in the off-season. Plus, it's NYC, nobody cares that much. Everyone has somewhere else to be!
I think it's just awesome that he recognizes Hard work in another sport, he is a humble professional kid who respects work, and the way he treated Timbo was awesome, I think he would've done the same whether the cameras were there or not, he was really professional , I respect humble people, rich or not. great video.
looking at timbo nowadays dude doesn't deserve any respect
Great comment!!!!!
You know what helps in handball? Having hands that can palm a basketball.
His hands are like tennis rackets
knowing how to cut it when you hit the ball so when it contacts the wall, it goes in the opposite direction, thats what helps, having big hands means nothing if you don't know how to use them properly in handball
One-wall handball is mostly a NYC game. I think it became popular there because all the public parks had one or more concrete walls. It didn't cost much to build them, they didn't require any maintenance, and lots of people could use them at the same time. Perfect use of public money! I miss playing it, wish I could find a concrete wall where I live now!
BTW, in NYC, when you say "handball", this is the game you're talking about. The game that's played in a four-walled court indoors is called "blackball".
One wall really is the best, I wish it were more popular nationwide
until half way in to the Vid i was like, ''where is the Handball'' ?
+Art Vandelay . Dude, handball is major NYC and Irish sport great for walls in the City. There is a one wall, 4 wall and 3 wall versions and a selection of 4 ball hardness (black, red, blue and pink). It is easy to play but difficult to master. Terrific sport.
+Robert Gabel K thanks for the information ❤
+Robert Gabel It isn't really handball though
+Cosmo
t
+Robert Gabel do you know what the ball is? Like a squash ball?
i know all my nyc handballers are here
@MANCHESTER UNITED irrelevent
Always
MANCHESTER UNITED F.C this video is about handball lmao
MAN UTD and we dont care
M stfu
Most people dont know that handball's Irish🇮🇪
I appreciate Red Bull showing handball some love
how i miss this sport! everyday at the court from sun up to sun down during the spring and summer.
Had some great times playing handball when I was younger too
Ah, this takes me back. How I spent my summers growing up in NYC. I haven't played in decades since I haven't lived in NYC and I haven't found a court in other states. But I'm pushing to get an outdoor handball court in Houston suburbs
What shoes are best for handball?
@@christinavelasquez64 tennis “court” shoes.
I moved to Florida 4 yrs ago from NYC I finally found a court a few months ago
Man keep pushing. J live in Houston also and I haven’t found a handball court since I moved from nyc
Wonderful video!. The Sport of handball goes way back. Invented in Ireland in the early 1700's. Abe Lincoln played it. Team handball was invented around 1890.
So just like football, handball is a different sport than european handball. These limbgames really changed after the revolutionary war xD
the American form of football isn't even all about the feet
+Vandernator Also not a ball, but I think hand egg wouldn't draw much public
+nannedebadone2 hahaha true i think throw-egg or run-egg wouldn't be a very popular sport
+Vandernator xD true. So if you think about it that way one could understand why they call it football
+nannedebadone2 in deed my friend as a player of the true kind of handball i can confirm
blake is pretty good at handball for a beginner
+MrNothingButAir He's a super athlete, he's going to look respectable at anything he does. But I doubt that was his first time playing.
Hell yeah, I still remember when I first started playing at school at the handball courts, I would miss every swing and contact with the ball lol but I just play everyday now and now I'm better
Blake is good at every thing
facts true.. as a handball player myself we know the struggles of first learning the game, power shots, "seeing" the ball, angle shots, spin shots, rollers, stamina, timing, and ball placement.. but he managed above average when it came to seeing the ball and stamina.. he juss gotta work on ball placement
Your jumper is wet... For an air all
This form of handball is common in Ireland, why are people hating?
Because it's not handball, it's wall-ball or something, just like "american football" is not football, they don't play with their feet and it's not a ball, a ball is round, theirs is more like an egg.
Handball is played on a court with two teams and there is a goal, there is no goal and there are no teams in american wall-ball.
@@OriginalPuro No actually handball came from like ireland to america over 100 years ago, well before the "european handball" was invented with 2 teams and a goal.
The team sport is called Olympic handball, what’s being played here is called GAA handball in Ireland.
There are variations, it can be played using one wall, as here, or with four walls, which often takes place in a squash court.
Thank you for making this film. Handball is not just crosstraining for me but has come full circle to me in regards to fitness (physically and mentally).
En España y toda Europa tambien jugamos a Handball!
This handball was created before the Olympic handball. This handball is apart of GAA an Irish sport
Awesome, great to see this being done in collaboration with red bull, looking forward to Ep 2
In elementary school I use to play something we called handball but it was with a giant vertical wall and a large inflated rubber ball. Was a really, really fun game lol.
Paradite that’s prob European handball
It is not European handball.
Wow first time seeing this handball is coming up. I love it. Good work Timbo!
Blake's athleticism is insane. His fundamentals are mind blowing all he needs is a championship run and a #1 spot in the west and he's a clear MVP. No doubt in my mind
When worlds collide.☺️☺️
This is why cross training is essential to perfect your craft.💯💯
Rather confusing that they would name this game handball when there is already an established sport with that name...
+Johan Eriksson they could've named it bitchslapball
+Ligar Anggara Pangestu 😁 yes due to the fact I got bitch slapped a few times by that damn ball.
I guess its like Football, Volleyball, Hockey, Polo and how countries use those terms and to be fair I think Handball sounds reasonable since they are literally hitting a ball against a wall using their hands not sure what else they could call it.
It should be called hand-squash
+Johan Eriksson just like hmmm lets see football?
Timbo gave Blake that first point lol!
Really cool seeing Blake with Timbo back in the day.
Black griffin's body is crazy.
Mai Nyigguh tf how
You should do more like this, they are fun to watch
Handball is a gaa sport and I actually play handball it is harder than it looks and anyone can play it🔵
It’s a superb game, great for mental and physical fitness.
esto es pelota vasca de toda la vida
Estaba buscando un comentario como este, que handball ni que ostias
great story. i like this series a lot. good job redbull.
Wow! Blake is a nice guy. Throwing himself into other sports is cool. That was his first time playing handball? He played great!! Timbo seems very nice and humble.
hahaha he was playing so easy on him
true but Blake is in way better shape than him, if Blake got a few years of practice in he might be able to hold his own against him
this is a super fucking cool series. nice job redbull. something I actually want to watch lol
this was fun to watch
Something peaceful about this sport. Different feel than basketball, but unfortunately it’s not as global as basketball. Love em both though.
Deadliest milly rock of all time
Finally they put handball on the map. !!!
Open shop, you got a great new game. Hand ball+ the springy ropes.
Tim Gonzalez looks like real cool dude
Justice Tamaalii until you play a game against him
Timbo played me in east elmhurst queens ....back in the days with east Elmhurst legends like lil Marv... im finna pop up at west4th one of these days to get back in to it.
I have to say, Blake is quick learner! Handball is not that easy for playing his first time.
The best first timer I have ever seen.
@@beachwalker1466exactly. I couldn’t even whip the ball properly until a few months in, and that was on the big blues!
To all my fellow handballers out there, show this to everyone you know who claims that handball isn't a real sport or is a game that is only played by teenagers.
European handball is very diffrent tho. I train it and it's like a very diffrent sport. In european handball ia a lot more contact.
+Lukas Gnidovec There is no such thing as European handball. Handball is handball. What you see in the video is another version which the "Americans" named handball. Though both sports use hands and ball, for me this is more related to squash > hands = hand squash. I'm from Europe myself btw.
+Art Vandelay Handball isn't a real sport.
noah turner shut up:3
+noah turner play Timbo and then say handball isn't a real sport. Make sure you dive for every shot that is out of your reach by just running.
Blake is in the building! #ClippersNation
"I wish I meant to do that" I died ahahahahah
I'm a handball athlete at my school, I'm from Orange California, I want to travel to different states to compete with other tough opponents
rethink your life choices
You can't tell me what to do , shut the fuck up. It's a hobby that I enjoy.
+victor jeong lol
Internal R aye im from orang county
Internal R go for it you can do anything if your train hard and have a good mind set I’m trying out for handball as well have the same thoughts
That ball is everything
i bet you that tall dude couldn't use his right hand for a few days after playing that hard his first time, it takes time to build up the ability to play hard without sacrificing your hand's functionality
That was abolutly fantastic video, I enjoyed it so much!
After these handball techniques , Blake griffin has been recruited by the Brooklyn Nets 😎😎😎
Damm how crazy to see Blake Griffin playin handball
Blake griffin is the beeessstt #KGD
Blake griffin is INSANE
Timbo is moves and is built like Chris Paul. Blake is good at everything.
I feel like drinking a red bull now
Funny to see what americans call Handball, reminds me on what they did with Football ;)
this form of handball came before the one you're refering to.
Point of View and the word American
This game was established LONG before European Team Handball, in fact this handball really is the first sport. It was played in America as far back as the 1700's during the Revolutionary War and official courts will built in San Francisco in the 1800's. It was fully established in New York City in the turn of the 20th century.
Retrocade Podcast Olympic handball is a sport originated in Ancient Greece
@@akrasiathekruzmachine2341 Does not matter.
slap-ball is not a globally recognised sport, handball is, which is why it is an Olympic sport.
Same with hand-egg aka "murrican football", it's not a globally recognised sport, it's played in very few countries and they don't even play with their feet, it's not a ball either.
A ball is defined as round, where is the ball in "murrican football"? There is none.
Damn I wanna play against Timbo so bad
Hes good with both hands.. man
Come to.ps127
guess the training actually helped. he's playing real well rn
Really well done video, really enjoyed this
Timbo: That's a professional shot!
Blake: than you!I wish I meant to do that!
jajajja!
Tape for the hands? I assume callouses are par for the course but preventative measures?
Interesting video; thanks for posting!
I have watched the video with Spanish subtitles and there is an error, they are translating handball as "balonmano", but that's the sport of Team Handball. The proper translation in this case is "pelota mano".
As a side note, who would want Blake Griffin cross-train playing Team Handball? Could be cool to watch an NBA pro in it.
The Spanish name for this kind of handball is Rebote, which is loosely translated as ricochet.
Rebote. Spanish
3 wall handball is where it’s at.
Yes; more options. More power and lungs required. But; I play both. Both are great. I get hurt less in one wall.
I used to play handball back in the day
Documentary on legendary and extremely controversial handball champion Paul Haber is on UA-cam.Go to Paul Haber:Against the Wall
Everyone at my school knows how to do a power shot and cork screws
This was awesome
Blake seems like a cool guy.
I think it definitely helps to have big hands like he does
After watching this video, I'd be down to play haha
They could have picked another name but this is a great sport
i think they should do a series where they have football players learn and play rugby and vice versa.
he must use this had eye coordination for punching trainers in the face lol.
I'm a huge Blake Griffin fan but this was just too funny
Blake Griffin = Monster. If only he had a good jumpshot like LaMarcus and Nowitzki he would be the best ever PF
Went to school with Timbo, he used to ball in the bathroom during class time. Real deal
dat moment when BG fucked up
Lol
+carlos ortiz no
i need those cables. that's tough.
ngl this looks fun
Isn't this a poor man's version of squash?
The hell is squash?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squash_(sport) respek da sport lad.
what the actual fuck even is squash lmao ur talkin like its some relevant sport
And hitting a ball off a wall with your hand is relevant? Typical millennial mindset where you think you're above everyone.
Handball has been around 100+ years and is played on thousands of courts all around NYC. Also played around the country and internationally. Do some research before you talk out of your wrong end.
That was cool.
I hope he tries pole vault in his track and field. That is my sport right there.
Blake : "ok" sounds like Rammus looool
I understand BG struggle with the endurance factor. I played tennis all my life and every time I play team sports like football or basketball I get exhausted much quicker than playing tennis. Handball has similar coordination like tennis so you need to have quick feet, hands and eyes to control the ball and to be able to move around. Basketball requires similar but also different types of movements so no wonder BG got tired.
It IS amazing how each sport requires great endurance; yet it must be in a different way being that Blake got winded even though he is a professional athlete.
that's right ma boi timbo!
Our paster at our school is the best handball player I've ever seen, but I play with four squares
Blake is good. The secret is drinking red bull . I'm gonna go get a red bull now
handball= squash when u forgot ur racquet😂
7:20 Real handball players laughed
He is a real one but probably going easy
amazing
You should try Australian handball
real handball is like one of The biggest sports in europe
Out of all the stills they got day, why go with the most derpy pic of BG? lolol
Go to Paul Haber:Against the Wall handball documentary to see the all time most controversial and legendary champion in action.
Red bull is yum
Dat thumbnail tho xD
yeah haha xD
He wants to be healthy but he's drinking red bull!
seeing comments about what the sports name should be breaks my heart. no one is going to EUropean handball and saying it shouldnt be named that way or this way. cmon respect each others sport and dont hate.
This handball was made before team handball so this is actually handball lol,it's just not as popular it's really a nyc thing
It's a big sport in Ireland, it's been played in Ireland for over 200 years
Ok but why is no one talking about him checking BG out all the video
