Behind the video :
Hurling has been around for over 3000 years so we thought it was about time we shared it with our American friends. We brought a hurl and sliotar to the streets of Dublin and asked Americans to try a few basic hurling moves.

"This, lads, is a hurley, used in the Irish game of hurling, a cross between hockey and murder".
Nice reference
+veronicadredd22 :P i'd say more a cross between hockey and lacrosse. fisticuffs is actually an allowed part of hockey.
Its a quote from the Jason statham movie Blitz .
Hurling pre dates hockey and lacrosse by a few thousand years .
TickleMeShlomo Yep, and they say Canadians aren't violent. See them fight on the ice!
+TickleMeShlomo hockey the only time where bare knuckle boxing isn't criminal
It's the quickest sport in the world and possibly the most skilful
Qwikscopez not fucking possibly it takes fuckin talent
Looks like some kind of medieval club weapon..... or a frat house paddle. LMAO!!
I miss Hurling as a kid, I should get back into it.
This is such a fun channel!
You should make Americans Whatch Gaelic Football For The First Time.

I get that people in the east call it a Hurl but it annoys the shit out of me😁
same 😠
same
I know it's Hurley not hurl
I hate when people in the west sat Hurley
say
Those kids were brilliant. Just no fucks given.
+NemesisKismet just casually walking down the street with their hurleys... nothing to see here lol
+Dan Hazing ya you actually see kids mostly boys, just walking down the road with their hurlys and hitting their sliotor up the road and picking it up again when they get to it and repeating the process
Jodie O Sulivan cool, good to see such an old sport sticking around.
+Dan Hazing It's a great auld excuse to basically carry a weapon around with you the whole time!
+KingBobulousIII lol
that was really good for beginner's they should be proud
I know, they were very good, like im irish and I can't play hurling for the life of me 😂
+Sarahann Nolan Well, they're Americans. Being good is what we do.
* waits for this channel to blow up in rage * :3
It doesn't look to hard to get the basics down, I'm sure there is whole new aspects to team play. I kind of wish it was payed here in America I love trying new sports but there really isn't any teams or leagues you know.
I mean it's similar to some popular American sports, like ice/field hockey or lacrosse
Sarahann Nolan junior b standard
Not bad America , not bad at all

+Amanda Doyle
Yeah, why do you ask?

A stick and a ball for f*ck sake and really a hurl it's a Hurley

Seán Leahy yeah
In America, hurl is often used as slang for vomit. This took me a second. Haha
It's actually called a Hurley
@Rusty Shackleford and Galway my dads from Galway and I live there now
Please do 'American's Watch Mrs.Brown's Boys for the first time'.
You are a bloody genius!!!
What is that
+Ulysses432 no watch it it is so funny!!!
Ulysses432 No I swear i's soo funny, i just wanna see whhat Americans think of it :P
YESS YOU ARE A GENUIS
I feel like Camogie should of been mentioned! It's hurling a sister sport after all!
They are practically the same but camogie girls wear scorts
Yes being a camogie player I feel like we should get more recognition
Yeah c'mon Girls!!!!
bbonner422 it’s illegal in camogie
Nolwenn Appelbaum pretty much only some of the rules are different
My cousin showed me this video. We laughed hard at them especially the lad in the red shirt 😂😂😂😂😂
As an American, my first experience with Hurling was at a pub, in Killarney, on St. Patrick's, having my first 'technically' legal pint (was 18, which would be illegal over here). It was one of the most spectacular things I had ever seen during an already amazing experience.
Should I spell it Padraig? Or does it matter when a foreigner says it so long as it isn't abbreviated?
RogueBishop89 Most people in Ireland would say 'St. Patrick's Day' although more colloquially it would be 'Paddy's Day' but never ever called 'Patty's Day'
RogueBishop89 m8 I live in Killarney
Padraig is the irish gaelic for patrick for instance la le padraig is saint patricks day both are correct .but in different languages.You would not say saint padraigs day or la le patrick because the grammar would be wrong in both languages.Patrick was not irish and lived before the english language existed so neither is really right or long.When he came to ireland there was no p in gaelic so his name was pronounced by the locals with k sound rather than p
aww I thought they were actually gonna play a game...
"I don't know how to pass"
Well lads, they're ready to play county.
Daoine air bith anseo atá liofa!?!?!
Bless you*
Mise!
Mise! Bhuel, bhí Gaeilge líofa agam, níl fhios agam an bhfuil sé fós agam
Ó ta gan dabht
Hold on itranslate is loading
It kinda looks like lacrosse
+Kaitlyn kind of but they (im irish but i don't play hurling regularly) don't wear padding or safety equipment apart from the helmet.
+veronica boomsma actually I'm Irish I'm really into gaa and I call it camogie sometimes because I'm a girl and that's also what we call it but anyway you can wear shin pads
All sports with sticks came from this sport, its 3000 years old
@@elainem80 lacrosse had been played by the natives for hundreds of years before European contact
@@TehStormOG hurling is the oldest sport in the world, its 3000 years old. Fact
This makes me wanna hurl.
Fuck off.., at least I can actually play hurling... You cant... Lazy American
I did a bit of research, and there is in fact a little bit of semi-organized hurling being played at US colleges. It's very amateur stuff though, mostly kids with no previous experience just doing it for fun. Men and women play on the same team. Nevertheless, a hurling team from Montana was willing to travel to New York to win a national tournament (about the same distance as Ireland to Greece), so the players must really like the sport.
It annoys the shit out if me when people call it a hurl! It's a Hurley😂
The word hurl makes me cringe so much god damn its HURLY
HONN TIPP !!!!!
Where r u from?
Liam Gribben boooooooo.......hon the cats
@@liamgribben9939 where do ye think he has tipp in his name ya tick
Where's the part where they play?
thought there was going to be a lot of vomiting in this video
It was really good for a first time!I tried it when I went to Dublin last year, and it was soooo hard!
Looks nearly impossible to play i will stick to ice hockey lol
never play a real hurly match unless you're brave 😂 the amount of times I've been hit with a sliotar or whacked with a hurl in anger is mad
Being Irish it annoys me how they react
tbh they done pretty good lol
Yeah not bad at all :)
Peter Flanagan, the best Hurley maker in ireland
America has names for good sports. They are Baseball, Hockey, Football and Basketball.
They were actually pretty good for their first time 😂
There so confused😂😂" it's like a paddle"😂😂
We don't wear American football helmets for hurling the cringe is real
I have no athleticism whatsoever, but I'd still try.
Why does he keep calling it a "hurl"? It's a Hurley
Hurl is the nickname for a Hurling Stick :)
Depends on what the people around u called it
its the same thing,hey
Ah now it’s a hurl
GAAGO now on ROKU in the US!
LIVE MATCHES FROM IRELAND - INCLUDING HURLING, OF COURSE!
Toughest sport in the whole of the UK, just kidding dont blow me up. But seriously the goal keepers can't be all there in he head.
+possession2 In the irish republic you mean not played much in the uk
That was the joke, dont blow me up for it.
Passed the first two tests now do that running around a field and try not to have your head ripped off
"I already know what this is called" It... It's not a ball
This video made me feel good to be Irish, and the kids at the end made it.
Looks like a oar made into a weapon with how its shaped. I'd give it a watch if someone asked and nothing else was on.
"Ok, this is called a hurl"
Um. HurlEY, thank you very much.
He does? Ah, sure, that's fine then. Just Clare people say Hurley (hurl-ee) so got a bit annoyed.
Seán Leahy I see. Thanks
It's a hurley not a hurl. Hurl is only used in kilkenny
Can someone please tell me wtf field hockey is?
It's hockey done our artificial watered grass I think??
That's true. It's big here in the Netherlands. Our teams have been world champs and it's played a lot on an amateur level. It is a bit of an upper class sport here though :).
Hockey on a field and with a weird stick that looks like that hurling thingy in this video but with a U cut into it.
google.com
I hadn't heard of it before. Looks like a cool game.
Damn some of them were really good
It kinda reminds me of lacrosse
them hurls are not even finished
Just finished watching some Hurling highlight videos. This sport would definitely appeal to some Americans. It looks faster and more active than lacrosse.
I'd love to see them watch it and react to how rough it is
+Niall Campbell they do have an episode on facts look up americans watch hurling for the first time :)
It's not a feckin baseball
My biggest regret is not sticking with hurling when I was a young lad. Best sport in the world, and it helps for picking up a few birds as well :D
Looks a lot like lacrosse, which was incredibly difficult in high school gym.
Hey Americans! Don't steal are sport!!!
It's "our" not "are". and relax. We barely like soccer. Besides hurling has been played here for years in many areas but it's just not popular.
W . . . T . . . F ! ! ! That bat looks like something you'd murder the f@ck outta some sorry fool with ! Like an Axe, just made with all wood ! And you can still seriously split someone open with it ! Got' damn ! 😮🤔✌
Now I know a little more about hurling!! Good to meet you @Vidcon2016 Best.
This shit is just lacrosse with out any nets.
No its not actually but thanks for the great input
They were did good for people who never played before :D
1:20 me : just spoon the thing ye mad weapon even tho im from dublin
I see something where hurling is way better that any american sport...UNIFORMS.
This was filmed outside the Guinness Storehouse, St James Gate...Dublin...i reckon
Oh my gosh the guys are better than I am 😂😂
I'm actually sort of impressed, well done U.S.A, well done.
Omg I'm from Irish and I'm a professional camogie/hurler they aren't that bad well done America
In America, hurling means vomiting. Seriously.
What about comoge? (Cant spell) (Its hurling for girls) ;-;
Hurling and camoagie (think that's how you spell it) technically
My first exposure... and I am REALLY surprised that this is not a major professional sport in the US yet.
There are actually alot of Hurling clubs in the United States! I play for the Hoboken Guards in New Jersey and I founded a club at my University. There are clubs all over New York, Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco. I have played every major American sport and there is nothing that compares to the passion and skill both players and the fans have for the game! If you want to check out my experiences playing in the NCGAA (National Collegiate GAA) specifically the 2014 National Championship watch my videos! Slan!
Stop calling a Hurley a “stick”. A stick is something you pick off the ground in a field. A Hurley has many processes to make it.
The chap in the glasses is right....people in America would love hurling.
Even though they cover themselves in pads (like girls!!!) while playing games they celebrate the physical stuff in sport. Hurling is all about that.
What a hurler actually looks like, Really tall, Broken fingers,Broken legs
The game of Hurley (or Hurling) is 3,000 years old, it is the fastest field sport in the world -- 'Shinty' is its Scottish equivalent.
Oh my God! The girl you show at the beginning is my friend here in California. She was on a trip with our college to Ireland. Holy shit...
I’m from co armagh in Northern Ireland and we mostly do gaelic but we still do hurling it is less popular
Ugh they don't know how big hurling is and it's so much better than American football in my opinion
Hello other irish people around in the comments (I’m from Mayo)
I am from Ireland and I know how to play this would be a piece of cake for me and Tá mé ocht mbliena daoís only
Tá mé ocht mbliena daoís means:I am eight years old .in Irish though
I hate when people call it a hurl, it's hurley, Americans use hurl as a slang word for vomit ffs
Was this filmed at st James gate in Dublin? The tracks in the street look like the ones outside of st James gate. For anyone that doesn't know, st James gate is the big black gate that goes into the Guinness factory in Dublin
I play camogie/hurling and it gets kind of annoying when people compare it to other sports it's 3000 yrs old but still they were really good for beginners
I went up to an Irish person (I could tell by his voice) do you wanna play hurling with me and he said "what's hurling"? 😂 lol
I play comogie its the same as hurling but just for girls and a few different rules I am 10 turned 10 today I started when I was about 4 or 5 I am on the ireland team the oldest member is 28 I am the youngest I love it it is amazing I have had a fractured finger because of it but I still love it
In different parts of Ireland it’s called two things. A hurl. Or a Hurley. I say. A hurl
It's not called a hurl it's called a Hurley I play it in school in cork
No , hockey is like hurling . Hurling came first
Where's the black and Amber lads shame on you...
The oldest sport in the world, 3000 years old, originally used as a weapon.
There are about 15 GAA clubs in Texas.
HURLEY get ur facts right people
Mup Wexford💜💛
+Amy Smyth damn right
i love the way they think there all class for rising the ball yet a toddler could do that and there grown ass men and women
That's offensive to irish people I am 11 and I can play better than that
Leave me get one thing straight, u hurl with a HURLEY not a hurl
