    The most impressive thing here was clearly the sprinter almost beating Ronaldo without wearing cleats.
    That's some insanely efficient zig zagging!

      It's more impressive that Ronaldo nearly matched the sprinter in a straight line dash. Especially since his form was lacking a few tweaks that would have put him in the lead if rectified.

      Soshiance Yavari Dude 0,3 s diffrence in 25m is alot. 25m x 4 = 100m
      0,3 x 4 = 1,2s he runs a 10.40? so that means Ronaldo only runs a 11.60.
      And he even got an advantage over the sprinter because hes wearing better shoes for acceleration rofl.

      ***** You can't calculat this way.
      At start, he lose time because he must push on his body to the tempo.
      The second 25 meter are faster because he has a "flying start" for this.

    To everyone that keeps saying this is unfair:
    Its not unfair because they aren't looking only at who wins, they are looking at the way they move. In futbol, you have to always be thinking, where is sprinting, you know where you have to go. Listen to them, they were comparing their strides and turns. I think it was good they let them keep the shoe they were most used to and most comfortable in because you're going to run better in the shoe you normally run in. I agree that this would be unfair if they did this for only the purpose of who won.

    You guys dont seem to understand how much 3/10 of a second is on a 25 meter dash.. The sprinters PB is 10.14 and assuming his time with these trainers at 100m would be about 10.5 seconds Ronaldo would still be way above 11 seconds on the 100m dash. He loses 0.3 secs on 25m, so lets estimate he´d be losing at least 1.2 seconds on 100m (probably even more than that) which would be about 11.7 seconds, which is not extremely fast for a soccer player. I can't listen to those comparisons between sprinters and soccer players anymore. Soccer players just cannot keep up with straight line sprinters.

All the young players are quick nowadays, back when this was filmed Ronaldo was the quickest but a lot of guys like Mbappe and Sterling would smoke Ronaldo in a 100 metre dash. The fastest I ever ran a 100 metres was 11.6 and I don't do as much training as these players do, i trained for sprinting but not as much as these players do. I'm saying that Mbappe or someone like that would get a low 11 time and maybe even break 11 seconds with proper sprint training.

      Don't pretend to be an expert when you're quite clueless. You can't extrapolate the 0.3sec difference to be 1.2sec for 100m (even if you did add 1.2sec to Rodriguez's 10.14PB, 11.34 is still damn quick for someone who isn't a sprinter and pretty decent for an amateur sprinter). The 10m splits in a 100m are totally different, depending on the part of a race, Bolt did 10m-20m in 0.99sec and 60m-70m in 0.81sec, huge difference.
      Furthermore, certain sprinters, like Powell and Brommel, specialize in acceleration while guys like Bolt and De Grasse specialize in speed maintenance and max velocity. This test focuses purely on acceleration thus gives Ronaldo an advantage.

      Now, that is not to say soccer players are inferior athletes; they just don't have the same training emphasis. Soccer is a balance if agility, speed, and endurance; football is nothing but pure power and speed.

    • @AgencyEric
      @AgencyEric 10 років тому +35

      ***** Some of what you say is true, but the idea that Chris Johnson's speed is comparable to Bolt is like saying a hare can hang with a cheetah. It's not close
      Bolt runs 100m (notably longer than 100 yards). He has covered that in 9.58 seconds, which would be 40m in 3.83! Now convert that for yards and you get....3.50!! To make it even more lopsided, the combine uses hand timing, whereas electronic timing is used in sprint races. The typical conversion from a hand time to FAT is .2, so Bolts combine 40 yard would be 3.3 seconds.
      Now, you might be tempted to say well the first part of the sprint is the slowest because of acceleration, but if you look up Bolts actual splits he covered the first 40m in 4.3 seconds, which converted to yards and -.2 for FAT gives a 40 yard combine time of 3.74.

    Ronaldo is quite fast especially when you consider how inefficient his sprinitng technique is. By changing his technique, he would get a much faster time. Ronaldo's technique is helpful for soccer though because having your arms out is typical to hold off opponents and for maintaining balance while having to change directions or absorb contact. Ronaldo is actually better build than the pro sprinter for sprinting. He's taller and more muscular. They should do a video where Ronaldo learn and do sprinters form and see what time he gets.
