That, was the most amazing curling moment I have ever seen... it’s also the first curling moment I’ve ever seen.
Yea, i didn't know sport like that even exist
Well some reason or something lead me here today. So it was interesting and to tell you the truth this is the one and only time I have seen it too.
It's honestly fun. I went curling during a field trip years ago when I was in like grade 6. I was used to standing on the ice since I've been playing hockey my whole life & at that point it was about 5 years of hockey. I enjoyed playing curling that one day heavily. Was very fun & I honestly suggest trying it. It's a little boring to watch but it's very fun to play
😂😂😂😂
The *only* curling moment I'll see.
announcer "what a throw"
me "what a strange sport"
Stranger than groups of men in shorts fighting to introduce the ball into the opponent?
The conversation between the two teams was easily the most entertaining part.

not to be judgmental but this looks incredibly interesting and boring at the same time
Ikr
The best sports (IMHO) are those which looks boring, but have incredibly interesting and rich world beneath the surface. Like chess.
Curling is very much like chess, endless strategies. It's a lot of fun to play.
Accurate description of curling.
Started curling when I joined the team in highschool. It's a terribly boring sport to watch, but it's some of the most fun to play. It's not just about tactics like chess, you have to be able to execute it as well!
As a kid I used to think curling teams was just the best janitors in the world showcasing their skills
It's crazy that it takes any officials over 5 minutes to come and sort this out LOL. Leaving the measuring in the hands of the players is wild, but they're such good sports about it. Great clip!
It's a holdover from club play, where there are usually no officials at all. In championships and the Olympics or other major competitions, each game would have one or more officials and they would do the measuring (and the stick would _not_ be wobbly). However, it is still the players who make the decision whether a measurement is needed.
Tennis is kinda similar. You don’t automatically get a line judge except for the really big competitions. When I was in high school playing, you had to request a line judge if the two players couldn’t agree that the other was calling the game fairly
"Do you know how to do this?"
"I did it once in the earlier games."

I saw a story about the stones. The rock that the curling stones are made from is on an isolated island and there is only one company that makes the stones and only a handful of people work there. It really is a unique /odd sport . You know the sport had to begin with kids sliding rocks out on a frozen pond.
This is sort-of true. For olympic games they use "Ailsa Craig Blue Hone granite" from Scotland, made by Kays Scotland, and this is indeed unique. But there are places such as a mine in Wales that can also supply granite for stones.
This should have been determined by each team putting up best player for a fist fight.
Curling
The only sport where its almost impossible to get a tie
well...it was...then it happened...
@@maxuniverse6002 they did say "almost".
Watch Petanque.
It is impossible for the game to end in a tie, because they would keep playing another end until someone goes ahead.
What? Rally, racing, running, golf... there are tons of sports you can think of.
It's an official event, and they're allowed to measure themselves. How Canadian is that!
TheLastPariah89 it a core concept to curling. its self refereed
I can´t remember seeing a referee at any event :-D
i´d like to see this fairness in other sports as well
They Olympics had officials measuring, and they messed it up a few times (the teams had to ask for it to be remeasured).
I would trust someone from the other team who has probably done hundreds or thousands of measurements in non-competitive matches, than some official who has measured 10 stones before.
Not only that, they're so damn friendly about it all!

Except in hockey any disagreements are resolved by one guy trying to punch out the other guy’s teeth, leave blood smeared all over the ice, and have someone carried off in a stretcher.
But in a friendly sporting way.

considering they have two different versions of the tool, i'm guessing it's actually not that rare of an event
this tool is used regularly to determine which i closer to the center it doesn't necessarily have to be this close to the center that the tool is used as it's not easy determining how close they're just using the naked eye
you have no idea how competitive people can get. if the tool's not there i bet someone would've brought their own micrometer or something, so lasers are the ultimate tech in current shutdown technology in terms of distance-based measurements since they're usually much more accurate compared to any other analog-based measuring devices...

I couldnt care less about curling, but the sportsmanship and humor makes this a great clip. And had this not been a tie, nobody would care, but the fact it was makes it the most viewed curling video
Curling is very much a gentleman's game. The refs are mostly there to measure stones like this that are just too close to call. The rest of the time everyone pretty much agrees on the points and even if someone brushes a stone with their broom it's still all up to the players on how to deal with it.
People still care regardless
The format of the game probably helps a lot. There isn't much grey space for dirty scumbags to work with.
why does anybody care that it was a tie, if anything that makes this video less interesting
@@originalman6599 "Had this not been a tie, nobody would care" doesn't mean "Everyone cares because it's a tie". Aceofspades is saying that he couldn't care less about curling [and the scoring for that matter, but given that it is a tie, it's easier to be impartial about the score whilst enjoying this clip], but the sportsmanship and humor makes this a great clip. I hope that clarifies.

I was really on the edge of my curling seat over this clip. The action, the suspense. Fast paced sports at its best.
funnily enough, even with stuff like this in it curling is still more physically active than american NFL football.
granted, you can say that about nearly every sport: the team sizes are so big compared to the number of people on the field and there is so much dead time during a game that sitting at home and watching the game is often more calories burned per hour above resting rate than the average player in the stadium because at least the audience will move to drink beer and yell at the tv. a lot of the other high visibility sports end up like that too (though none to nearly the same degree as the NFL) 70-80% of the players are assigned to sitting on a bench resting, 10% are warming up to switch in, and 10-20 are actually playing, combine that with a game schedule that assumes the entire team is on the field and even an iconic lazy-man's game like golf beats out half the major sports leagues even when the sport itself is something like basketball which is pretty much nothing but switching between running, obstacle running, and sprinting.
also "funnily enough" most E-sports are fairly near the top of that chart because almost none of the leagues allow boated team sizes and even in the ones that do teams don't usually use it, couple that with a lot of the games being WAY more demanding to play at a high level than you would ever expect and the only things that beat them out are stuff like endurance runners or Water Polo...or driving a racecar, they exaggerate most of what they post because somehow sports news never figured out that it'd be way more interesting and impressive _not_ to lie about everything but most forms of vehicle racing are absolutely brutal on anyone in the vehicle and very much a real work day for the pit crews and whatnot.

This is a pro match and they measure themselves. So goddamn Canadian.
I assume the need for measurement is pretty rare, but I am surprised they don't have more accurate tools for the job. This is an old game.
Lasers? How more accurate do you want?
Lasers can be more accurate. Obviously these weren't accurate enough. A true tie in this game is literally a physical impossibility. It is only possible if the measuring tools fail.
I think the source of major inaccuracy is the banged up edges of the stones. That makes tight measurements difficult.
@Richard Smith
Well there's plenty of sources of inaccuracy in there. Like the fact that they're using a hand-adjusted laser to measure something with round edges..? Let alone the banged edges.
If you have no practical way to measure a difference then it's a tie.
That's like.. I remember perhaps a decade ago during an F1 qualifs 3 cars qualified with the exact same timing to the millisecond. I mean sure they certainly all, physically, had different times, but already a millisecond is a pretty ridiculous accuracy for something with as much variability as a full lap. One bit of wind at some point in the attempt would skew the result by more than that. So at some point the inaccuracy falls way beyond any competitor's skills and even if you could determine a finer measurement, it'd come down to luck. So if the stone is as closed to the micrometer, let's just agree it's actually a tie.
rofl. I dont think you quite understand what 'impossible' means.

It's pretty much the only thing I actually watch during the winter Olympics. They're the only athletes that I trust to be decent, regular people who aren't doing designer steroids and a bunch of crazy unhealthy sounding things to their bodies.
The Undead Mage for sure.
Biggest problem with that wobbly stick is the sway while measuring(human error), the measuring rod(mechanical error), and the reading instrument gauge on top(instrument error). You have 3 margins for error that are non-mitigating and all 3 always add up. You get a reading that is at least 1/4 off from my experience. The laser should be replacing this for all and its very affordable and accurate by the mm. Usually measurements like this are very rare though and do not happen as often in curling.
It's rarely necessary for rocks this close to the center point. The wobble isn't present when the rocks are 4 or 8 feet away.
This has to be the silliest thing I've seen in competition. What's worse is those two sweeping the ice. It just looks so funny.
Almost started a Canadian civil war. Glad it was solved quickly.
P.S. I have NO clue what's going on at all- including the fancy sliding rocks.

not true at all
It's the most played sport in Canada. They can't all be pros.
Except for no one really makes a living off of this. Yeah, you can get some pretty decent cash if you win, but a lot (if not all) highly competitive curlers also have jobs outside of the sport.
It's getting better in terms of cash but a long way to go. Sponsorships help but mostly, play is for the love of the game. It's more than a sport - it's a culture.
dude A: its yellow
dude B: but you are yellow
A: I think its still yellow
B: For me its red
Now imagine football pleyers trying to argue about winner
They'd flop tho, no one would argue
They’d scram at each others face getting closer and closer till one guy knicks the chin of the other and the other guy falls on the ground with his hands on his face
It's not the same. Think golf. That's closer to this
That’s Canada for you
Estoy flipando
"Bring the measuring stick" the stick is literally so complicated they can't even come up with the name.
“No fair! You changed the outcome by measuring it!”

I just love how they were all just laughing about it and having a good time and not arguing going back and forth. Just awesome to see
Like the polar opposite of how football disputes are handled in the U.S. 😄
That's Canadian spirit. But then again there's hockey so...
@@GoTeamScotch 🤣🤣
@@TheTransitmtl very true😂😂
"of course _you_ think it's a red"
Thank you every winter for giving me a reminder that curling still exists and that it makes me want to watch another 16 curling videos in a row.
Weird
only 16?
YA YA YA YA YA YA YA! YA YA YA YA YA!
You’re not wrong eh
Such a dumb sport
Can you imagine all the engineering and manufacturing that goes into just determining whether a big odd shaped thing travels across ice more or less than another?
no se como llegue aqui, pero me voy bastante satisfecho con lo que he visto.
Honestly these refs and guys sound insanely friendly like r u kidding me I’ve never seen ppl like this joke so much
Like especially how the players talk to each other
there not refs.
They're Canadian.
Canadians don't have egotistical american syndrome.
You've clearly never watched an esports tournament.
I like how they messed around with the wobbly stick for what seemed like forever, when they could have just grabbed the laser from the beginning.
The wobbly stick is fun to use
The wobbly stick would have been good enough most of the time. It also shouldn’t have been that wobbly, I haven’t seen that in high level play before.
The other thing is that the laser needed to get a tire party involved, the players try to decide amongst themselves before that.
Is it actually called the wobbly stick
@@CHS_BLue lmao
@@CHS_BLue Only when it sides with the other team
i love how they sound so chill
Great sportsmanship. I like how easily they threw away the wobbly stick.....
Should be renamed “Rock measuring to the sounds of Canadian banter”
Hahaha
Lmao
