We're endurance hunters who utilise team tactics, it's no coincidence that we domesticated the dog. We perfectly compliment one another's strengths and weaknesses - now we rule the world, and they get belly rubs lol
Okay, but realistically a pronghorn antelope will always win. Also In this video, all that was taken into consideration was raw data. Sure at top speeds, a horse would not out distance run a human. However, at moderate trotting (which are only recorded with saddles and riders on the horse) clocking in at 10-15 miles per hour for 3-4 hours. It is safe to assume that a horse trained to without a saddle to endurance run 350 Miles, could easily beat Dean Karnzes 350 mile run going 4.3 Miles per hour. Same with a dog, a cat, or an elephant. They all can outrun any human, and if trained equally to humans/given equal equipment, we would stand no chance.
@@barodrinksbeer7484 I'd agree within your your parameters, but admittedly it's limited hypothetical conjecture. In reality it wasn't a race, we used all kinds of tricks - and dogs can be trained. I.e. antelope don't sweat. They overheat much faster, even at a moderate pace. Understandably, if a chimp with a spear and a wolf began chasing me, then my cortisol levels would spike, diminishing my motor function and massively reducing my efficiency over a long distance. I'd be sweating buckets, and it might be enough to keep me alive lol.
Imagine if humans actually were taught to run, run everywhere.. rather than being taught, punished, or scolded when you run (i.e. scolded or punished for running in the hallway at school), so much so that running was as natural and normal as walking is. This shower thought always made me wonder how fast human sprinters could sprint if running everywhere was the norm :P
There are some tribes in Kenya that have a culture of running, and there may be similar cultures in other places too. People from these tribes are some of the world's best distance runners
@@sawyernorthrop4078There was a tribe in Africa that hit the children in the legs, and encouraged them to walk instead of being carried or crawling. The result was them being able to walk way earlier than children in other places. Also most of them could start running at the age of one! The environment they grow up in formed stronger children. That´s probably why most atleats excelling in running and jumping tend to come from harsher environments, but also DNA plays a big roll.
It wouldn’t change much, as running is mostly techniques then power. Olympic runners wouldn’t really improve their time even if they run instead of walk, the real wonder is how do we let so many people get extremely fat knowing that it will ruin humanity’s evolution?
@@clementpeloquin1131 let? Then what do you propose? Make exercise mandatory? Control their eating consumption? Then people would revolt saying oh this is tyrannical, communist bla bla bla. They made vaccines mandatory and everyone's complaining already. Tf u expect
@@aanzoranzo9687 Making exercice mandatory, as you mentioned. That would also mean free open gym’s, new job for the maintenance of the equipment too. And no, if they have the money to buy the food then they have the money for going to a gym
@Aidan McSweeney the point of this entire channel is information via „pretty picture“ yes this matters a lot . You don’t talk about pizza and show a hotdog don‘t you
@Aidan McSweeney the issue i have is that a Walk cycle is the most basic first type of animations you learn . Its like the dribbling of basketball.. its so expected from any animator you don’t put it in your portfolio. But if you can’t even bother learn it for 1hour or even buy an animation hell not even buy you find this for free …that is just sad . Especially when this channel has visuals and animations to explain stuff as a guide
@Aidan McSweeney just another example of how great of an argument are insults but srsly, the poor animation can quite as well drive ppl away from the vid and is genuenly making my head hurt
Consider that the skeletal muscle pump also plays a role here. In order to run this fast, you need to be able to not only get blood down to the legs but also back up to the heart fast enough to deliver adequate oxygen.
Blood does go fast through your body though, don’t underestimate it. Especially as faster runners would naturally have stronger heart muscles maybe making it faster. I’d assume the problem would lie with how much air you breathe in though because if you don’t get enough it limits your muscles capabilities. They can actually do anaerobic respiration to power the muscles but this makes lactic acid which is not good for muscles and produces less energy
@@Tc-rn8lh Yep... people tend to exaggerate animal's strenght for no reason... It is really annoying when watching those wildlife documentaries or reading comments in youtube that go like "that chimp could easily rip your arms off..."
Actually on a flat surface like a road, or a flat dirt road, once we get up to speed if you can run 40 mph, you can outrun a bear, remember use endurance to your advantage run in a way that would be exhausting for the predator
Great presentation. A little nitpick: Using Dean Karnazes as an example is unfair since he has the genetic, superhuman ability to dump lactic acid stored in his muscles (note: I say superhuman because he was featured on Stan Lee's SuperHumans, episode called Ultramarathon Man). This isn't something you train or work towards. It's a genetic ability he was born with. Yes, he did run for that length of time without sleeping or muscle-cramping but he is not a normal human. He's very much an outlier.
Thank you for this knowledge, hearing that last part sounded completely outlandish, some kind of training or other variable had to be the reason as to why this was possible for how extreme it is. Thanks for sharing
@@griffinflyer77 he has a genetic mutation that seems to have no effect on the other spheres of his health. This is what I understood from the episode. His superpower is pretty much being able to permanently recuperate his energy while still being active it’s an on crack version of what soccer/football players do while running on the pitch for 90 minutes
I remember when my uncle was in high-school. He was so fast and athletic that every year he would participate in track and field. 7 events and would take gold every year. He set state records that held for years and the one thing he said was to sprint on your toes. Pretty cool. I also had a friend who told me that theoretically he had an advantage in sprinting (verified by his doctor) because he has an extremely high arch in his feet. I dont know much about this claim but maybe you others in the comments might know something about that?
Don't think that a high arch gives an advantage short distance any ways as my foot basically had no arch so I had to get insoles as it put extra stress on my muscles to run and when I asked my doctor about will my arch affect me in sport he said no he even told me to look at pictures of usain bolts feet even he has pretty flat ones
They are both correct, and connected also. Running on your toes stimulates the muscles on the bottom of your foot and will strengthen the arch in your foot. Allowing you to make one that is very high. I recommend doing some research on it if you are interested. Walking barefooted is also a great way to get to this stage.
@@crisbowman still if run our toes, only our mid foot will touch the ground. Your heel should never touch the ground when running unless you want to jump or if necessary switch directions quickly (which is more like a jump I guess).
@@ic8537 Right, but a lot of people "stomp" at a slight angle pushing them forwards. At high speeds good sprinters stop pushing and start pulling the ground towards them and then back behind them. Less effort is exerted to keep them upright and is utilized more efficiently for forward speed.
@@crisbowman this is even effective for jogging, because it helps keep forward momentum and wastes less energy. I just thought from your original comment that you implied that we should still use our heel, which further from truth and harmful to joints. Also people stomp while walking too, they don't know how much force is actually being applied to their joint and tendons.
I KNEW running on your toes made you faster. I run vastly faster when I’m on my toes. It is also less tiring and takes less steps for me to reach somewhere.
@@xXChipsAndGravyXx Not supposed. As it has said in the video it requires more muscle mass and we have a plantigrade leg structure, meaning we are supposed to walk towards prey like Michael fucking Myers the goddamn tortoise vs the hare.
I personally am able to run faster, by running mainly on my toes. I never use my heel/the back of my feet when running, unless I'm slowing to a stop. Running straight and looking at the ground a few feet in front of you also helps you run longer. It helps by stopping you from thinking about what your trying to accomplish, and keeps you focused in yourself, not other people running around you. It also helps with staying balanced and in rhythm. If you have very good balance, than you might be able to run lower to the ground, which helps boost velocity. Very Slightly leaning from side to side when stepping/running also helps with rhythm and staying balanced. (These are all personally examples, I don't know what helps other people)
completely agree... some more added benefits for toe-running: 1) natural shock absorption - when running on full feet it is done by knees and back, which are not meant for such stress, causing problems in the long term; 2) more control of attack - can feel the ground thus reducing needed energy via better coordination of movements... one thing which helps me (apart from toe running and seeing the ground in front of me) is to feel balance in the back of head; from what I know control of muscles and blood vessels happens in a neural center located there... so I just start to feel the movement there, and it gets much more natural
im not an expert when it comes to measuring velocity, mph, etc. what i do know is ever since i was little, i never liked walking flat on my feet since it always felt gross and unsanitary to me. (it also made me feel like i was wearing stilettos as a kid) i didn’t know it could make you run a bit faster and longer than running flat-footed.
I completely relate. I'm not a professional in this at all either, but I've always preferred walking and running on my toes. It does feel more sanitary. My friends always say I'm weird for it, but I'm faster than them all lol
Usually when running the best place to land is on the balls of your feet (close to the area where the toes connect to the foot) this helps with shock absorption and carrying your momentum into the next stride. Another helpful thing is dorsiflexion (tilting your foot up towards your shins) this again helps with maintaining your momentum, and also with shock absorption. But it also gets your foot in the ideal position to minimize the time spent on the ground and getting to your next stride. Do be careful not to dorsiflex too hard, this can cause you to be running on flat feet which can lead to you putting a lot stress on your knees. Same goes with running entirely on your toes, this can cause a lot of pain due to the high amount of force’s exerted on them. :)
@@TheMissiIe what is that equivalent? a human runner cooles in average 2KW. A Bugatti Chiron with 1500 hp with 50% efficiency in combustion (probably less) means 1500hp or 1100kW of heat transfer.
@Soulleey the Chiron's radiator is one of the best radiators in the car world, the human cooling system is one of the best in the animal world. If you genuinely thought I was comparing the Chiron to a human.. you need to learn what an analogy is
My mother used to go for 10km runs out by our cabin in the summer. A couple of times, she tried taking our dog with her. Pretty sure she carried him back home each time. Poor little guy just couldn't keep up the pace, and slowed to a walk and refused to move any faster well before the point where my mother would typically turn around. At the time, I thought it was just because we didn't take him on runs enough, and he wasn't fit enough, and that may have been part of it, but I now understand that a good part of it was differences in endurance between our species. This makes me want to start running again. I was about as dormant as a hibernating bear for most of 2020 and 2021 so far, and while I haven't gained any weight, I want to be more fit, as I feel slower than I was before the pandemic, and I'm sure my endurance has plummeted.
I have dogs that I run with. A human can run a dog to death, especially high risk of its hot out. Because we sweat. And dogs can only take one breath per stride (while running, because their guts move back and forth, pulling air in and pushing it out) and panting is how they cool down
@@GoDaveGo I remember taking my big Labrador Retriever dog out for runs and halfway through the run, the dog would become dead weight huffing and puffing. It was then, I knew just how efficient the human species were at endurance. We could outlast any other animal for days non-stop. Theoretically, we could keep going for 3-4 days tops before getting tired at peak performance.
I love how he mentioned the mechanical specs of human anatomy especially leg, and muscular mechanism. These things are fascinating for someone like me, that works with mechanics. Awesome👍
I used to have a German shorthaired pointer. These dogs are incredible at covering terrain, but even with the short coat, heating is definitely the bottleneck. It amazed me how effortlessly he glided up and down each side of the road and managed to explore every ditch and underpass and get a good bark at each dog while still keeping pace. In the same time he'd double my jogging distance, triple my walking. But when I maintained it for around half an hour, he'd start matching my pace, and be hurting without water to drink and splash in. On a particularly hot day, eventually there'd be a point he couldn't keep up.
Turns out it takes hundreds of hours to replicate perfect running cycle animation. I had to find some solution for that without sacrificing the element of running itself as my setup is not that great. :)
I like to sprint with my dog when at the park. In the first few sprints the dog always wins, but afterwards I always win because he physically can't run faster anymore. I think it's about heat. When is winter it's take significantly more sprints for it to get tired. Since we evolved in Sub-Saharan Africa is safe to tell that the ability to sweat plus resistance running would be a very effective away of get any animal tired withing the temperature range of our cradle.
when i was a child after watching Jurassic park i started running on the tips of my feet and it became a habit of mine , every one laughed at me for it , i finally have science behind it and that explains why i was fast
Same, everytime I play football with my friends i may not be the fastest cuz my stamina is pretty low but im the fastest since i run like how you mentioned…
You know, I have a problem of walking on my toes. Everyone in my house & school made fun of me & ask why i walk so weirdly, just my mother accepted me (she's dead now), But somehow i was really good at sprinting, now that i know the truth I'm grateful for this gift.
I was the same actually. But I gradually learned to walk with my heels on the ground. Because of it I still have huge calves to this day even though i dont run or work them out.
I am a cross country runner, and I can confirm to a lot of this. When going on hill trails, I never bring my heel against the ground even if I’m going up slow. There’s a reason why we always stretch out our calves before going on those 6 mile runs, and this video covers most of it. There’s also a mentality that if you walk you get into a trap of ‘oh it’s ok to slow and walk.’ Speaking of, there’s a set minimum speed I need to be at in order to be in a running stance, otherwise it’s an awkward trot/walk.
Would you look at that, now i understand sandman’s ability in jojo part 7: he runs a horse race across USA on foot, but he runs with his toes and so he can run for hours and really really fast, the explanation at first says that, as he runs with only his toes touching the ground, his legs don’t receive any impact and they don’t get tired giving him an advantage when it comes to difficult terrain, this also makes him very fast plus the shortcuts he can take (shortcuts that a horse wouldn’t be able to take, like a forest or a rocky canyon) he manages to stay in the race staying at a medium position until he finds a useful shortcut which could give him the lead. Cool video btw, learned a lot.
@@markusionescu3957 basically in jojo part 7 there's this horse competition across the united states and there's this guy called sandman that run faster than horses...
My favorite 2 legged walker is the Pangolin. It looks like they walk on 4 legs due to being close to the ground, but they actually run on two legs and it looks adorable!
Thank you for pointing out how we're incredible long distance travellers. That's basically how we spread, Homosapiens littleraly just walked all over the Earth. Also since you mention Australia stuff, the Kangaroo is the most efficient long distance traveller in the world. Unlike other animals with complicated biomechanics, when a Kangaroo starts hopping it's simple, their whole body works in sync, just the act of bounding is enough to contract and expand the lungs with almost 0 energy used on their part.
Actually we are quite good in a lot of physical activities. We just have the tendency to compare us with the absolute best in every discipline, and that doesn't make sense.
@@Another_youtube_animator and btw, since they were talking long distance, your comment about the sprint is weird since, long distance running and sprinting are different things.... A person would jog for long distance
There was a dude who ran 26.2 miles, 42 kilometers, in less than 2 hours. literally 13.1mph or 21kph. That's about my sprinting speed, and he sustained it for 2 hours. His name is Eliud Kipchoge, and he's a freaking beast.
I can tell yall, like anybody who ever ran for his life: adrenaline is the answer. When someone gets an adrenaline push nothing matters anymore, you can run at least two times faster than normally its crazy.
You'll run out of neural fuel if you use too much adrenaline. Your body has a counter for it. You can push the counter back by learning to release dopamine.
@@imadeyoureadthis1 im talking about a real fight flight freeze response to something thats endangering your life in that moment. The rush only lasts for some time, after that your feet hurt and youre done because the adrenaline goes away and you exceeded your normal limits.
@@franzhanz8945 Adrenaline makes your blood vessels contract to direct your blood to major muscle groups. Adrenaline pumps more blood into your heart and muscles. The effects of adrenaline can last up to an hour after you've been removed from the stressful situation.
For sure. I remember when me and my friends were like 14 and got chased by some older teens. The adrenaline rush was something else. We outran them without feeling out of breath
This reminded me of a Native American tribe in Mexico called "raramuri" or the running people who can run very long distances barefoot or only with sandals and have a type of Traditional energy drink made with corn to run those distances
@@gustavod62 Tesgüino is a fermented drink made year round from sprouted corn. Sometimes it is also made with still-green stalks, fruits of certain cactuses, shrubs, wheat, and trees when corn is sparse. The process begins by malting the corn and spreading it in a shallow basket covered with pine needles each day for four or five days. It is kept moist until the corn sprouts by which time the starch in the corn has been converted into smaller sugars. It is then mashed and boiled for eight hours. Varied herbs are ground up and mixed with water into a paste which is then fermented overnight by a fire. Then the paste is combined with the corn liquid and fermented for another three to four days. Partaking of the alcoholic beverage usually takes place soon after its preparation, as the tesgüino can spoil within 24 hours.
I wish that I knew this 10 years ago. I would have won more races in Cross country and Track if continued to run on my toes instead of just in short sprints.
Interesting. I grew up on a farm in the country, spent almost all of my time barefoot except when going to school or stores. Always ran on my toes, never heels. I tend to walk that way as well, it feels natural. I remember being shocked in elementary when I learned most people run on their heels. That was insane. Good video
i didnt grow up on a farm but i did that as well, even when walking. i still do it most of the time. i thought it was just a habit until a couple years ago lol
omg, I'm so happy to read that I'm not the only person who walks on their toes most of the time. Always thought I was just weird. Like you said, it just feels more comfortable to me to walk that way, walking flat footed feels wrong.
I've broken many records in my Track team and have always ran "Cheetah Style" since I saw that they run on their toes for sprinting. I no joke made a pair of air cushioned shoes explode from running too fast in them and by this point walking on my toes feels normal. I leave "hoof prints" now not foot prints.
It's because the average animal is almost peak. The difference between an average human and a human at their peak is far greater than in any other animal species. The average horse vs the maximum horse there is hardly any difference
This reminds me of Sherlock Holmes,the hound of Baskerville Deduction: and then he tiptoed down the alley until he seemingly died. Sherlock: --, he wasn't tiptoeing,he was running... Running for his life. Something along those lines
@@laimawolf6826 I didn't know that, lol. How weird, I would almost say Sherlock is completely asexual. I have only read from the canon by Sir Doyle and yes I like it very very much.
@@steampunkastronaut7081 Yeah,I also think Sherlock is asexual and I have the full Conan Doyle book set,collectors edition :) I'm glad I found another Sherlock fan,may I ask your favourite Sherlock book?
@@laimawolf6826 After some insight I think I can be certain that The Sign of the Four is my favourite, and casually it is there where John gets to know Sherlock better and the reader may start noticing how the mad man is completely alien to romance or any kind of sensuality, hehe. The 12 adventures and Study in Scarlet follow very close too. They are all so good!! Now, which one is your favourite?
Every time I feel insecure about my small calves, I come back to this video to bolster my confidence. I actually have such huge calves that they're slowing me down from my maximum potential speed.
Watching this, I realized I walk using digitigrade ambulation much more often than usual. My walking speed is abnormally fast, and my stride is much longer (despite not having longer legs). I also generate more heat while walking and notice my calves get sore and that I'm pushing off with my toes more. IDK why, it's just the normal way to walk for me
So that's why so many events at the Olympics involve running and long-distance running. Also when you think about it, humans usually lean forward when running, making it easier to balance on our toes. You can stand on your toes, but it is exhausting after a little while.
I've been running on my toes since age 5 or so. I reflexively done it so far. Any other way seems odd to me. Not like running on sticks attached to my legs of course. I also use my lower leg muscles.
Amazing video! very informative. Fun fact, kangaroos are sometimes considered pentapedal animals, as they often use their tails as a 5th leg. Also, when in water, they are capable of moving their legs independently, but on land they are locked together.
To run faster, watch a velociraptor running animation loop. Hunch at a 45 degree angle, face forward, stand on your toes, and run as you would normally. Tip: you run faster barefoot
@@adyandrey23andrey becuz u didn't ran on plain obstacle free ground maybe. Becuz uneven surface and most importantly, pebbles or stone chips would make u scream once u step on them, forget running anymore.
@@frustationoverloaded5976 yes, you're definately right about the uneven ground and pebbles. It's like stubbing your small toe. I like running on sand barefoot though, so yeah, surface matters a lot.
Dean Karnazes has a genetic condition where he doesnt have to flush the lactic acid out his legs nearly as much as a normal runner (meaning he doesnt get tired when running)
Another important comparison to make it community and tool use. 40 hunter gatherers with spears can kill anything on the planet. There is no need to always sprint away if you have a big team of hunters. Unless you are alone, you do not necessarily have to run away from anything. I think that the endurance came from having to hunt things and was not motivated from being preyed upon.
This reminds me of most horror characters. They track you down relentlessly and you keep running and getting away. As you tire you get away slower and slower. Eventually falling to your hunter simply due to him tiring you out. No matter where you go. No matter where you run theyll never give you a break to get rest or to quickly eat to regain energy As you lay there gasping for air he comes in nothing you can do anymore. Nothing to do but let them have thier way. Almost certain death. We are natures horror characters
@@youtubediscriber6438 Yeah! Hundreds of people subscribe every day and has thousands of views a day. I was on a break but I will upload a new video soon too. :)
The sweat and our brains are just two of our biggest advantages. But the other big one is our shorter arms in comparison to our legs which allow us to maintain our balance easier when throwing things. Humans also have the ability to throw things the farthest out of any animal. Sure our arms dont got much power, but the distance we can throw combined with our ability to craft tools allowed humans to outlast any animal, and spear them from farther distances once they have been sufficiently worn out.
If we still lived a harsh life in he wilderness, we would not have to train. Animals who don't live in the wild, suck just as much as us humans. Like Dogs. You think dogs are fast? If you go on a walk with a dog that isn't used to walks, you can walk them into exhaustion in a mere 30min of leasurely strolling around.
Daily life for wild animals (carnivores specifically) IS their exercise. The better they chase down prey the better they eat, the better they eat the better their leg muscles get, the faster they can chase down more prey and eat even more. It's just not getting fit for fitness's sake like with us.
Yeah I feel like intensive exercise regiments specifically designed to increase stamina, speed, efficiency endurance etc are a massive boost to our numbers. We're comparing outliers from our species with the average of others. It's still interesting, but the bias can't be ignored
@@loops8274 The sheer fact that ancient humans still pushed animals into exhaustion and could hunt even Mammoths, it’s obvious that it’s still natural thing. Today, we’re used that technology does most of the work and that has decreased the average performance. Wild animals on the other hand are always on the move, so they’re generally in shape. So, I don’t think it’s bias.
im glad you covered the fact that humans are the only animal that can run for as long as we do. Its commonly overlooked our ancestors used to chase animals till they couldnt run anymore and secure the kill if it was worth the chase.
The only thing about running on my toes is that the muscle in the arch of the foot feels like it’s a little strained when walking normally but only in my right foot
Us humans are truly designed to run for maximum distance instead of maximum speed. Our ancestors literally ran animals to death as a means of hunting. Many animals can run faster than humans but no animal can run for longer. Just look at ultramatathon runners, they regularly run over 100 miles without stopping.
I've always used my toes, and then people made fun of me at school. Eventually the fastest kid at my school tried racing me and realised I was faster than him. He than said "I was on to something there". Now I know why.
Don't worry bruh, I've been running on my foot until 2 last years ago, when i start to pick up running on toe from reading JoJo and now i can actually catch up with an athlete same age of mine, despite me being slightly fatter
Haven't watched the video yet, but based on the thumbnail I'm intrigued. Because when I learned to walk, I learned to only walk on the ball and toe of my foot like on the right. And when I wear shoes, I am forced to walk heel to toe. Never been a fan of running, but when I'm barefoot I can leap and sprint very fast. When in my shoes I feel like a walrus out of the water.
I did a little research. All horses need to be approved to compete in most races, and horses can sunburn. Still. If jockeys have sunk tons of money into bicycle-like gear that doesn't flap in the wind, a trimmed mane makes plenty of sense.
Man. This reminded me. I need to get back to exercising. My calf muscles are like 1/2 what they were in high school (was in rotc,rotcs extra training called raiders, and physical training so I basically sprinted a mile three times a day 🤣)
this video was very interesting and i now have a better understanding on how humans run, also at the same time your voice made the video even better than it already was

The result was them being able to walk way earlier than children in other places. Also most of them could start running at the age of one! The environment they grow up in formed stronger children.
That´s probably why most atleats excelling in running and jumping tend to come from harsher environments, but also DNA plays a big roll.

Consider that the skeletal muscle pump also plays a role here. In order to run this fast, you need to be able to not only get blood down to the legs but also back up to the heart fast enough to deliver adequate oxygen.
True but if it just for a small amount of time like a couple seconds.
@@mrsmokeiv6041 you pass out
Blood does go fast through your body though, don’t underestimate it. Especially as faster runners would naturally have stronger heart muscles maybe making it faster. I’d assume the problem would lie with how much air you breathe in though because if you don’t get enough it limits your muscles capabilities. They can actually do anaerobic respiration to power the muscles but this makes lactic acid which is not good for muscles and produces less energy

Great presentation.
A little nitpick: Using Dean Karnazes as an example is unfair since he has the genetic, superhuman ability to dump lactic acid stored in his muscles (note: I say superhuman because he was featured on Stan Lee's SuperHumans, episode called Ultramarathon Man). This isn't something you train or work towards. It's a genetic ability he was born with.
Yes, he did run for that length of time without sleeping or muscle-cramping but he is not a normal human. He's very much an outlier.

I remember when my uncle was in high-school. He was so fast and athletic that every year he would participate in track and field. 7 events and would take gold every year. He set state records that held for years and the one thing he said was to sprint on your toes. Pretty cool. I also had a friend who told me that theoretically he had an advantage in sprinting (verified by his doctor) because he has an extremely high arch in his feet. I dont know much about this claim but maybe you others in the comments might know something about that?
False
@@lukenash2428 do you have an info to support or educate with that claim or are you just commenting to comment. You didn't provide much
Don't think that a high arch gives an advantage short distance any ways as my foot basically had no arch so I had to get insoles as it put extra stress on my muscles to run and when I asked my doctor about will my arch affect me in sport he said no he even told me to look at pictures of usain bolts feet even he has pretty flat ones
Usain Bolt has flat feet and scoliosis. I find that to be motivating!
They are both correct, and connected also. Running on your toes stimulates the muscles on the bottom of your foot and will strengthen the arch in your foot. Allowing you to make one that is very high. I recommend doing some research on it if you are interested. Walking barefooted is also a great way to get to this stage.

When we run, we shift gears by using our toes.
Proceeds showing a man running on his heels
After using our toes, we shift our step from pushing to pulling. Which was kinda portrayed here.
@@crisbowman still if run our toes, only our mid foot will touch the ground. Your heel should never touch the ground when running unless you want to jump or if necessary switch directions quickly (which is more like a jump I guess).
@@ic8537 Right, but a lot of people "stomp" at a slight angle pushing them forwards. At high speeds good sprinters stop pushing and start pulling the ground towards them and then back behind them. Less effort is exerted to keep them upright and is utilized more efficiently for forward speed.
@@crisbowman this is even effective for jogging, because it helps keep forward momentum and wastes less energy. I just thought from your original comment that you implied that we should still use our heel, which further from truth and harmful to joints. Also people stomp while walking too, they don't know how much force is actually being applied to their joint and tendons.
Heels are actual first gear, flat foot is 2nd gear, toes are 3rd.

@@Skate4Pls best response ever
The fact that someone probably broke it and probably didn't even know this is interesting...
Broke what?
I personally am able to run faster, by running mainly on my toes. I never use my heel/the back of my feet when running, unless I'm slowing to a stop. Running straight and looking at the ground a few feet in front of you also helps you run longer. It helps by stopping you from thinking about what your trying to accomplish, and keeps you focused in yourself, not other people running around you. It also helps with staying balanced and in rhythm. If you have very good balance, than you might be able to run lower to the ground, which helps boost velocity. Very Slightly leaning from side to side when stepping/running also helps with rhythm and staying balanced. (These are all personally examples, I don't know what helps other people)
completely agree... some more added benefits for toe-running: 1) natural shock absorption - when running on full feet it is done by knees and back, which are not meant for such stress, causing problems in the long term; 2) more control of attack - can feel the ground thus reducing needed energy via better coordination of movements... one thing which helps me (apart from toe running and seeing the ground in front of me) is to feel balance in the back of head; from what I know control of muscles and blood vessels happens in a neural center located there... so I just start to feel the movement there, and it gets much more natural
Yeah, I agree with the balance in the back of the head. Being able to control blood flow definitely helps.
im not an expert when it comes to measuring velocity, mph, etc. what i do know is ever since i was little, i never liked walking flat on my feet since it always felt gross and unsanitary to me. (it also made me feel like i was wearing stilettos as a kid) i didn’t know it could make you run a bit faster and longer than running flat-footed.
I completely relate. I'm not a professional in this at all either, but I've always preferred walking and running on my toes. It does feel more sanitary. My friends always say I'm weird for it, but I'm faster than them all lol
Usually when running the best place to land is on the balls of your feet (close to the area where the toes connect to the foot) this helps with shock absorption and carrying your momentum into the next stride. Another helpful thing is dorsiflexion (tilting your foot up towards your shins) this again helps with maintaining your momentum, and also with shock absorption. But it also gets your foot in the ideal position to minimize the time spent on the ground and getting to your next stride. Do be careful not to dorsiflex too hard, this can cause you to be running on flat feet which can lead to you putting a lot stress on your knees. Same goes with running entirely on your toes, this can cause a lot of pain due to the high amount of force’s exerted on them. :)

My mother used to go for 10km runs out by our cabin in the summer. A couple of times, she tried taking our dog with her. Pretty sure she carried him back home each time. Poor little guy just couldn't keep up the pace, and slowed to a walk and refused to move any faster well before the point where my mother would typically turn around. At the time, I thought it was just because we didn't take him on runs enough, and he wasn't fit enough, and that may have been part of it, but I now understand that a good part of it was differences in endurance between our species. This makes me want to start running again. I was about as dormant as a hibernating bear for most of 2020 and 2021 so far, and while I haven't gained any weight, I want to be more fit, as I feel slower than I was before the pandemic, and I'm sure my endurance has plummeted.
I have dogs that I run with. A human can run a dog to death, especially high risk of its hot out. Because we sweat. And dogs can only take one breath per stride (while running, because their guts move back and forth, pulling air in and pushing it out) and panting is how they cool down
@@GoDaveGo I knew horses can be run to death. Happens in almost every Old Western movie. I didn't know dogs could be run to death, but it makes sense.

@@GoDaveGo I remember taking my big Labrador Retriever dog out for runs and halfway through the run, the dog would become dead weight huffing and puffing. It was then, I knew just how efficient the human species were at endurance. We could outlast any other animal for days non-stop.
Theoretically, we could keep going for 3-4 days tops before getting tired at peak performance.
I’m the same way
I love how he mentioned the mechanical specs of human anatomy especially leg, and muscular mechanism. These things are fascinating for someone like me, that works with mechanics. Awesome👍
So humans could theoretically run 40mph. Is that assuming that the body ignores the damage and stress of running faster?
I think so, i think its because of gravity. When we jump there is a millisecond or second of going down again, so if we try to run we halfly jump up.

I used to have a German shorthaired pointer. These dogs are incredible at covering terrain, but even with the short coat, heating is definitely the bottleneck. It amazed me how effortlessly he glided up and down each side of the road and managed to explore every ditch and underpass and get a good bark at each dog while still keeping pace. In the same time he'd double my jogging distance, triple my walking. But when I maintained it for around half an hour, he'd start matching my pace, and be hurting without water to drink and splash in. On a particularly hot day, eventually there'd be a point he couldn't keep up.
The running animation looks a bit janky, but otherwise, great video!

I like to sprint with my dog when at the park. In the first few sprints the dog always wins, but afterwards I always win because he physically can't run faster anymore. I think it's about heat. When is winter it's take significantly more sprints for it to get tired.
Since we evolved in Sub-Saharan Africa is safe to tell that the ability to sweat plus resistance running would be a very effective away of get any animal tired withing the temperature range of our cradle.

If QWOP taught anyone anything, it taught these animators how to animate running animations.
I am a cross country runner, and I can confirm to a lot of this. When going on hill trails, I never bring my heel against the ground even if I’m going up slow. There’s a reason why we always stretch out our calves before going on those 6 mile runs, and this video covers most of it.
There’s also a mentality that if you walk you get into a trap of ‘oh it’s ok to slow and walk.’
Speaking of, there’s a set minimum speed I need to be at in order to be in a running stance, otherwise it’s an awkward trot/walk.
Would you look at that, now i understand sandman’s ability in jojo part 7: he runs a horse race across USA on foot, but he runs with his toes and so he can run for hours and really really fast, the explanation at first says that, as he runs with only his toes touching the ground, his legs don’t receive any impact and they don’t get tired giving him an advantage when it comes to difficult terrain, this also makes him very fast plus the shortcuts he can take (shortcuts that a horse wouldn’t be able to take, like a forest or a rocky canyon) he manages to stay in the race staying at a medium position until he finds a useful shortcut which could give him the lead.

Sometimes it is also made with still-green stalks, fruits of certain cactuses, shrubs, wheat, and trees when corn is sparse.

It is kept moist until the corn sprouts by which time the starch in the corn has been converted into smaller sugars. It is then mashed and boiled for eight hours. Varied herbs are ground up and mixed with water into a paste which is then fermented overnight by a fire. Then the paste is combined with the corn liquid and fermented for another three to four days. Partaking of the alcoholic beverage usually takes place soon after its preparation, as the tesgüino can spoil within 24 hours.

Same i always thought my calves were weak but then i saw my friends calves and saw mine are twice his size😭
So that's why so many events at the Olympics involve running and long-distance running.
Also when you think about it, humans usually lean forward when running, making it easier to balance on our toes. You can stand on your toes, but it is exhausting after a little while.
I just saw the thumbbail but, the trick is run like sandman?
Jojo’s
I was finding comments like yours
Me who came here to finally understand how that character in jojo part 7 was able to compete with horses and even surpass them in speed
His name was Sandman or soundman.
@@mdshahbaaz2555 sandman
The answer is jamón
@@dandywaysofliving there is no hamon in part 7
@@mdshahbaaz2555 you didn't catch the joke.
I said jamón
That's Spanish for Ham/balogna
But it also sounds like hamon
I've been running on my toes since age 5 or so. I reflexively done it so far. Any other way seems odd to me. Not like running on sticks attached to my legs of course. I also use my lower leg muscles.
This is is the same with me and i had to go to tons of doctors but it doesn't help
Same, shame doing it is worse for your joints
Lol anyone that's running fast runs on their toes. Ever seen track shoes? The spikes are only on the front area under the toes

It would be better if I could fucking understand him easier. Im having a very hard time making out what hes saying sometimes.
Amazing video! very informative. Fun fact, kangaroos are sometimes considered pentapedal animals, as they often use their tails as a 5th leg. Also, when in water, they are capable of moving their legs independently, but on land they are locked together.
To run faster, watch a velociraptor running animation loop. Hunch at a 45 degree angle, face forward, stand on your toes, and run as you would normally. Tip: you run faster barefoot
i fucking knew it, i always felt faster barefoot
My feet hurt like hell running barefoot. Better with some light running shoes
@@adyandrey23andrey becuz u didn't ran on plain obstacle free ground maybe. Becuz uneven surface and most importantly, pebbles or stone chips would make u scream once u step on them, forget running anymore.
@@frustationoverloaded5976 yes, you're definately right about the uneven ground and pebbles. It's like stubbing your small toe.
I like running on sand barefoot though, so yeah, surface matters a lot.
@frustationoverloaded5976 you developed calluses if you stop wearing shoes everywhere
All these humans flexing on animals for out running them whereas 90% of them gonna get tired after walking a few meters 😂😂😂
i see youll be siding with the animals when the war comes
Lmao I thought exactly that looking at the title and thumbnail.
well, let's see an animal outrun my car then ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■)
It took my 9mins just to realize he was trying to say legs when he called them lags 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
😂😂😂
Wow! That was enlightening. Well done.
Dean Karnazes has a genetic condition where he doesnt have to flush the lactic acid out his legs nearly as much as a normal runner (meaning he doesnt get tired when running)
that guy should have tons of children so everyone can have it
Another important comparison to make it community and tool use. 40 hunter gatherers with spears can kill anything on the planet. There is no need to always sprint away if you have a big team of hunters. Unless you are alone, you do not necessarily have to run away from anything. I think that the endurance came from having to hunt things and was not motivated from being preyed upon.
This reminds me of most horror characters. They track you down relentlessly and you keep running and getting away.
As you tire you get away slower and slower. Eventually falling to your hunter simply due to him tiring you out.
No matter where you go. No matter where you run theyll never give you a break to get rest or to quickly eat to regain energy
As you lay there gasping for air he comes in nothing you can do anymore. Nothing to do but let them have thier way. Almost certain death.
We are natures horror characters
I never thought this would be so freakin interesting 🧐

The sweat and our brains are just two of our biggest advantages.
But the other big one is our shorter arms in comparison to our legs which allow us to maintain our balance easier when throwing things. Humans also have the ability to throw things the farthest out of any animal. Sure our arms dont got much power, but the distance we can throw combined with our ability to craft tools allowed humans to outlast any animal, and spear them from farther distances once they have been sufficiently worn out.
We're probably the only animal that exercises for the purpose of being able to run farther. If other animals did that, I'm sure they could beat us.
Other animals do train. How do you think they got so fast? Only pets and zoo animals get fat like most humans.
If we still lived a harsh life in he wilderness, we would not have to train. Animals who don't live in the wild, suck just as much as us humans.
Like Dogs. You think dogs are fast? If you go on a walk with a dog that isn't used to walks, you can walk them into exhaustion in a mere 30min of leasurely strolling around.
Daily life for wild animals (carnivores specifically) IS their exercise. The better they chase down prey the better they eat, the better they eat the better their leg muscles get, the faster they can chase down more prey and eat even more. It's just not getting fit for fitness's sake like with us.
Yeah I feel like intensive exercise regiments specifically designed to increase stamina, speed, efficiency endurance etc are a massive boost to our numbers. We're comparing outliers from our species with the average of others. It's still interesting, but the bias can't be ignored
@@loops8274
The sheer fact that ancient humans still pushed animals into exhaustion and could hunt even Mammoths, it’s obvious that it’s still natural thing.
Today, we’re used that technology does most of the work and that has decreased the average performance. Wild animals on the other hand are always on the move, so they’re generally in shape.
So, I don’t think it’s bias.
im glad you covered the fact that humans are the only animal that can run for as long as we do. Its commonly overlooked our ancestors used to chase animals till they couldnt run anymore and secure the kill if it was worth the chase.
Next : How fast humans can run on all fours
Lol
Bro not to brag but i can run pretty fast on my 4s😅🙈
@@tristan9881 r/ThatHappened
The only thing about running on my toes is that the muscle in the arch of the foot feels like it’s a little strained when walking normally but only in my right foot
I fear no man but that thing

It can out run a space craft

Us humans are truly designed to run for maximum distance instead of maximum speed. Our ancestors literally ran animals to death as a means of hunting. Many animals can run faster than humans but no animal can run for longer. Just look at ultramatathon runners, they regularly run over 100 miles without stopping.
I've been running the wrong way for my entire life... I use the entire foot to run :(
I've always used my toes, and then people made fun of me at school. Eventually the fastest kid at my school tried racing me and realised I was faster than him. He than said "I was on to something there". Now I know why.
@@resphantom lucky you… I guess a big reason why so many people have flat feet is because they don’t run using toes
Don't worry bruh, I've been running on my foot until 2 last years ago, when i start to pick up running on toe from reading JoJo and now i can actually catch up with an athlete same age of mine, despite me being slightly fatter
@@frds_skce yeah but I fear that some permanent damage has been done to my knees… I can feel slight pain there when I do squats
There's no way to know because you haven't tested everyone in the world
There could be an insane runner in Lagos snatching purses
Lmfao 🤣
I guess we'll never know
This goes for literally everything. Chances are the potentially most talented person at anything will never try their hands at their true calling.
That's why it says theoretically
Haven't watched the video yet, but based on the thumbnail I'm intrigued. Because when I learned to walk, I learned to only walk on the ball and toe of my foot like on the right. And when I wear shoes, I am forced to walk heel to toe.
Never been a fan of running, but when I'm barefoot I can leap and sprint very fast. When in my shoes I feel like a walrus out of the water.
Does this mean if i shaved a horse, it could run further. On an unrelated note, when is the next Melbourne cup?
stop
My thoughts😂😂💭
He's out of line but he's right
I did a little research. All horses need to be approved to compete in most races, and horses can sunburn.
Still. If jockeys have sunk tons of money into bicycle-like gear that doesn't flap in the wind, a trimmed mane makes plenty of sense.

Man. This reminded me. I need to get back to exercising. My calf muscles are like 1/2 what they were in high school (was in rotc,rotcs extra training called raiders, and physical training so I basically sprinted a mile three times a day 🤣)
this video was very interesting and i now have a better understanding on how humans run, also at the same time your voice made the video even better than it already was
