i can still never get over the amount of power they can generate to lift someone up without touching the ground
@@wuzz yea that’s why there’s no ground 😂 what are you talking about
@@natrix0 I'm pretty sure that people are lighter when they are in water so they will be easier to lift or something like that
Doping*
@@lukairrahe They're lifting someone out of the water, that takes much more force than moving someone in the water. Try holding a 10 pound weight in the air, then try holding a 10 pound weight underwater.
@@lukairrahe Yeah but you need to throw them into the air without being able to push of the ground. Even though they're lighter, you need to tread water really hard.
Russia has won every Olympic gold medal in synchronized swimming and rhythmic gymnastics since 2000.
yes :)
And deservedly so. They are just so good at all the beautiful and weird sports.
Art D I jjjk
There are both very popular in Russia. In the USA there are no Rhythmic gymnastics collages and a couple synchronize swimming collages
Art D really? Wow
leave it to the russians to be exceptionally good at all the artsy sports like synchronized swimming, rhythmic gymnastics, figure skating, etc. Not really surprising if you look at their cultural, ballet and musical contributions
Khine KL not really at figure skating, their medals are just paid by the Russian fed cause the sport it's so corrupt judges won't even complain
Khine KL
someone said that the russians invented it
Bea F.M I won’t argue that figure skating isn’t corrupt, but their skaters are extremely talented and help pave the way for future skaters (first female to reach 80 in a short, first female to do quads in competition, Plushenko will be remembered as one of the best skaters....)
Is that why USA had more medals than RuSsIa
Not really figure skating. They need to perfect lutz first before u can consider them. Every russian has been flutzing their way to the top.
No one:
A random human: you know what, i think we should put people where there is no oxygen and let them dance upside down.
I put myself where there is no oxygen and then i dance upside down
@@annajuman8238
Thats the reply I was looking for. Seriously though, those who don't swim can never imagine the fun of it.
@@studiousboy644 It's fun?
I think it was the romans.
Yah,ha,ha,ha!!!!!!???????
This is genuinely one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. I've always heard people make fun of synchronized swimming but I can't even wrap my head around how difficult this must be.
Probably the most difficult event in the Olympic
Erm, gymnastics? I don't think these ladies can triple Arabian running, like gabby Douglas.
+MrMCAlien Do you think Gabby Douglas can do this? 😂
Skye Blackwood Yes.
+MrMCAlien Then you don't really know anything about synchro at all. Trust me, I highly respect Gabby but it takes years just to be able to do simple skills well.
+Eliu Misael Pascual Tapia that is very true, all those sports are very difficult
That was hypnotizing. Excuse me while i collect my jaw from the floor
Lol
Çok güzel
I never thought that synchronized swimming could ever be badass. I started my UA-cam search looking for laughs and....... Look at me now. I am proud to have been corrected in the most glorious way possible.
Sam Wells
Jungshooketh
I like it
In all honesty it's still a bit funny even to people who love it. Female Olympians are forced to smile or there will be a point deduction, so a lot of the times these swimmers are making really ridiculous faces because they're pasting a smile over the face they're making for trying to see through the chlorine and not suffocate. There's also a lot of parts of Olympic sports like this that are less about visuals and more about technique and skill, like the part where they lift a girl up and she seems to just wildly flail her arms and leg, that make for some silly moments.
This is one of the most enjoyable events in olympics no matter which ever country participates you just feel like watching them
Honestly, I think synchronized swimming is one of the most difficult sports. Can you imagine having abilities to hold your breath while doing vigorous movements inside the water?
But.. when do they breathe ?!
one of these girls can be underwater during 4 minutes ( even more ) without breathing
Flower Girl but they are moving fast pace it's like if Bolt ran holding his breath
у них жабры)))
girl43 When Lord Putin says they can. 😍
They don’t
0:32 imagine seeing this while walking down the street
😂😂😂
underrated comment
🤣🤣
Me: Mom, I could do a 20m swim on a single breath!
Russian swimmers: Hold our vodkas
They are sportmens...
lol i can do 70m in one breath. i did do training though.
Spinel you can? that’s pretty good, it’s what the national team does to train their breath
@@origamiair8908 Wow! That is a lot, I can probably do a 50m swim in one breath if it was breaststroke 20m if freestyle
@Spinel I can also do 50m (Olympic pool length) with practice
When my synchro coach was explaining fistails to us this morning she said:
If you are low in the water you can get your leg to 'here' (about 75°)
If your high in the water you can get your leg the full way down (about 90°)
And if your russian you can get your leg to 'here' (uses her arm to demenstrate about 110°)
🤣The russians are so good they are completely off the scale😂
Amazing. That is incredibly difficult.
When I watch, I keep think that this should be impossible! Super athletes.
can i just say that the most incredible thing is none of the swimmer in this event wears Goggle .... if it me...i'd die blind..
Blurry-ness 100
Googles aren't allowed
they just want to show iff their mascara
Dang you pointed it out. I spent hours training for swimming events before and I can never open my eyes in the pool without goggles. T
i stopped synchronized swimming because of the fact i couldn’t wear goggles 🥲
I dont know why but I find this scary 😂
Lol. Maybe it's the music
this is about Jurastic period
And hello, fellow ARMY xD
Yousra Zawawy 😂😂 you are not alone 😂😂
I know this is a requirement, but the smiles begin to look a bit crazed after a while. Maybe that's it?
WOW that was mindblowing. Plus i love how the makeup stays in place hahaha
You put chapstick on your eyes and then put a layer of creme makeup, then a layer of powder makeup, and then you spray it with this clear overcoat stuff (not really sure what it is called I just know it burns if you open your eyes before it dries). And after all that it still comes off...
Hakuna Matata yes but try removing it after a show
Daniel Coy Congrats! You just contradicted yourself by saying the word you despise of!
Hakuna Matata Cos it's waterproof,I believe
Sammie SabbyTTYL Yup,I wonder how they remove it.
Now let's see Michael Phelps try to do this.
paul galazo OMG XD YES
paul galazo stop comparing each sport has its own difficulties like gabby Douglas wouldn't be able to do this but they probably wouldn't be able to do what gabby can do, and I haven't tried every sport but out of what I have tried (gymnastics volleyball and swimming) I know there are a ton of differences and each of them are hard in there own way.
@@cynash6034 yeah we knoww
Phelps ears would get in the way.
@@jdmoore5979 FR LMAOOOO
Обожаю эту программу!!! До сих пор смотрю и не могу насмотреться! Спасибо всем сопричастным за высший уровень синхронного плавания, который держит на своих плечах российская команда!
i feel like my whole perception of synchronized swimming has just been changed forever
I probably won't ask how much time it took them to perfect this routine. It might depress me.
basically training 10 hrs a day and 6 days a week.
WOW. I can't even swim.
Me too
Same😅
Me toooo
Есть российская команда, а есть все остальные. Смотрю 12 июня, всех с праздником, с Днём России
One of the scariest things I've ever seen
This is one of my favorite events to watch ever since.
I'll never get tired of watching this 👏🏼 Fantastic job, Russia team 👍🏼
Девчата, благодарю! Здоровья вам, успехов и счастья. Вы большущие молодцы!!!
Russia always takes my breath away in Gymnastics and now I'm synchro swimming!
They do sacrifice a lot to achieve these medals so they defi deserved it :D
Just spectacular ! Art, pushing the physical boundary, competitiveness, showmanship...all are punched so magically in one show !! Pure joy !
Other teams are already know that they are coming for silver and bronze medals
they won gold again in rio!
+Lyonov yes I am too
+Lyonov please give the name of this aplication
I will try thank you
How people can dislike this video?😒😒makes no sense
+tom santana Maybe they just doesn't like they way it's filmed but they do like the routine.
US American´s haha
Nicolás Cortés I just doesn't like your grammar
maybe people get anxiety attacks because of their near-drowning experiences. Can't blame em.
Because of Jealousy
Настоящие труженицы! Красавицы
ну что сказать?! смотрю этот номер годами, в денб по несколько раз! Шедевр! Спасибо всем за труд!😋
The most impressive thing or this whole choreography, is that they worked the pool like nobody's business. Many synchronised routines often have the team working in one sect of the pool. This was magnificent.
Чем меня поражают программы групп в синхронном плавании, так это своей сюжетностью! Это как за три минуты посмотреть захватывающий фильм! Наши девочки разбаловали меня )) Элементы, их сложность и компановка; музыка в гармонии с программой и образами; артистичность спортсменок и т. д. - это безусловно важно! Но если группа не рассказала свою историю, то для меня это разочарование...
Это была одна из самых памятных для меня программ этих легендарных спортсменок!
These girls are amazing to the highest level. It seems to be the hardest sports
смотрю годами этот номер.бывает в день по несколько раз.восхищаюсь.спасибо и тренерам, и девчёнкам за труд❤
They move very very beautifully from any angle. So amazing.
The Russians always sets the bar high in synchronized swimming. ❤️
it's extremely hard because each swimmer has to be symmetrical with the other swimmers
I even can't imagine how difficult it is! Молодцы россиянки!
What kind of aliens are these girls!!!....Human perfection at its best SO Fantastic
im a competitive swimmer, and I do nothing like this- I compete in galas/competitions , which is completely different to synchronised swimming and I personally find synchronised swimming to be so beautiful it's astonishing how in sync and coordinated everyone is
Insane!!!!!! this russian team have my respect!!
they won olympic medals in Rio too
Fabulous. Love that music! They used it so well.
Russian mermaids 😍😍😍😍
I refuse to believe that they are humans.
yes they did it again
I've been a swimmer my whole life, swam in college and all. I have to say that some of the most talented swimmers in the entire world are in synchro or water polo, but don't get a fraction of the respect. I guess something about fast and objective sports like track and swimming are really appealing, but the stuff these synchro swimmers do is actually mind-blowing to me.
This is the most impressive event at the Olympics
I think when aliens finally visit earth, we should definitely show them some synchronized swimming. What a weird, beautiful and impressive human activity this is
Russia Synchronized Team Always the Best .
Remember from Sydney to Rio they Win maybe Tokyo 2020 just for Show Time for Russia.
The best of the best. Masters of their art.
Amazingly difficult, but beautiful sport. I thing it deserves much higher attention than it has.... I would compare it to figure skating. It's very difficult to swim without touching ground! for several minutes with artistic parts.
Them: Swims In 3 meter Pools
20- Year Old Me: Plays in waddle pool as I am too scared
Wow, this has come a long way. Amazing to watch
wow...looks like watching fierce aliens in walking dead movie. their precision and expression is awesome. the best part is ability to fast moving and hold breathing for a quite sometimes in a water. No doubt they shoud have won and defending their chamionship. Cant wait to see them in Rio
Russia had a nice outfit and think they deserve to win in this competition. Congratulations to all of you.
This is why aliens won't contact us...
Totally agree, the sport is so beautiful, amazing and difficult, it makes the aliens speechless.
Or they are among us yet.
omg it's too funny XD can't watch it after your comment :D
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋkkkkkk
hilarious!
This is the first time I've watched any synchronized swimming. They were fantastic!
I was just trying to breath while watching this.. 🙌🏻
Супер! это "за гранью"! не реально! и супер красиво!
Amazing. I would probably get a cramp underwater with those leg routines.
It's simply amazing to see how well they perform under the water. It's breathtaking
The portal didn't open but I'm still satisfied.
I love that I can see the team smiling and laughing while also being hella into it 😂 so amazing
me, a synchronized swimmer, looking at this hard af routine: 👁👄👁
I saw the Silver winner on Instagram and thought it was amazing....no i see this and know why they won Silver and not Gold.
So much respect
Me: does a 25 freestyle and holds my breath for 20 seconds
Russia: dances under water literally dying for breath and does it in 20 seconds
Idk
Just perfect!
Very Nice . Brasil 2016 !
had won!
for me this is their best performance than the Rio one.
0:59 The moving of their feet were amazing!!!!
Ballet is their foundation for gymnastics i think.
Amazing performance thanks to all participants
oh God.... I can't believe it...AWEmazing...
Simply the best 👏👏👏
What is that at 4:14? Haha I must know the technical name for such an impressively complex move.
it's spider's movement, i guess
Actually there are lots of creative(new) movement in free routine don't have the proper technical name.
Cause in free routine, you can do whatever you want.
@@flowergirl31 it's me when I see a wasp lol.
In spain (basque country) we call it “the elevator” and it has lot’s of variants. I loved performing it.
Nani?
They're incredible. Shivers down my spine
go go Russian great golden team 😎
and again hit the buzzer this year
I get SO excited seeing them upside down in the water, it is the coolest thing I've seen recently and I need more! 😂
Starts at 0:32
Russia was amazing, their technique and syncronization is admirable. However, I still think that Spain's choreo was the best, and I am glad that they still got bronze :)
Yes I feel they were more graceful
Thank god I'm not the only one to think
Yes, Spain's performance was beautiful and soft.This was more aggressive and intense.But nevertheless , both teams were excellent.
Must be so tiring
The timing with the music was on fleek
That is amazing. That is more than talent. That is poetry in motion.
I never realized they did this in deep water 😦
Still holds strong
Artistic swimming is the most difficult event during the olympics. You cannot argue with that.
chile- i can’t even swim.
Wow my mind is blown! Crazy beautiful.
I mean, dancing in the land is hard enough....
Oxygen: *_”Am I a joke to you?”_*
I like the music! Fierce!!!! :)
I've always admire this sport
Never knew about this sport. Thanks to the Olympics channel
