RIP Steven Holcomb. Hard to fathom today's news about your passing. Thank you for your performance 7 years ago which made us proud.
RIP Steven Holcomb.
the two guys in the middle have one job and then they just vibe for the rest of the ride
Feel the rhythm, feel the rhyme, get on up, it’s bobsled time cool runnings
Yessir! My favorite movie 💪
Yessir
My cousin was selling food at these olimpic games
Noice
God bless you both
@@silvergold9050 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Congrats to him, and of course, you

The commentary is completely off
Ok
You’re wrong. Germany and USA just switched flags. Did you not get the memo?
It's the guy from air crash investigations
Guy sounds British. What can you expect?
That's the only thing that makes this worth watching
The Canadians with German flags. Commentary is off
so basically they get to ride a rollercoaster
I get that comparison but it's more like F1. The difference is roller coasters are engineered for safety, whereas in bobsled your driver is in control, and anything short of precision can be lethal.
A deadly rollercoaster that you're in control of, yes
no there have been several fatalities durring the winter olympics bobsledding events. Theyre horrific to watch.
1000 times more dangerous
A roller coaster without the repetitive and redundant safety checks and no tracks and FAR more likely to cause a horrific accident, but otherwise yeah.
this is the most headass sport ive ever seen.
lmfao
Ha! Get it?
The narration is bad. He is talking about the wrong teams as they go down the track. It ruins the video.
yes
Killed it for me..
Ahahaha the bloke with the Jamaican flag... legend 2:02
It helps that I rewatched cool runnings a few days prior to watching this 😂
That movie was the first time I ever saw black people (I grew up in Svalbard)
*bobsleigh event music starts playing*
R.I.P. #Steven
Ngl that looks fun
how does one get into bobsledding?
You get in and sit down.
parents with money
I know I’m 3 years late but still. This is for qualifying in America. So the process takes time. It may be a year or 2 until you get into a sled, but first step is try out or get recruited. You’ll probably want to do the prior unless your in the top 10% of sprinters and weigh near 200 lbs, but you’ll try out at a combine somewhere across the country. Consistently they are at the Olympic training centers, and then wait until you get contacted. If you are under 18 years old things will be very rough as there have only been two to qualify at that age and one to remain that age during training (Me 😊). You may need your legal guardian to contact the team for you (ONLY DO THIS IF YOU KNOW YOU QUALIFIED AT A COMBINE). So you qualified (HURRAY) you will eventually get an invite to a rookie camp or train with the team. You are now doing the sport. Oh wait you want to go to the Olympics. Here are the steps. Perfect your technique and try to take a spot on one of the 3 best teams in the nation. Compete and get familiar with the sport and its environment. If you make it to the World Cup (top level) you have almost a perfect chance of going to the Olympics. Hope this helps. sorry I’m late and how long it is.
Good luck!
You first get into soapbox racing and join Olympics. If it’s Jamaica, it’s even better
i remember watching ths when i was in Vancouver for the olympics, gr8 vid!
Can't wait for this event!
That's so cool
go USA!
There's at least one fat guy in each bobsled team. I guess their weight helps move the bobsled.
Dude was actually legally blind and died around the time of your comment. (whether it was a suicide or fluid in the lungs is still unknown).
@@theguy1633 wdym?
@@theguy1633 what?
@@ashlynsmith7995 Pretty sure he mixed medication and passed away. I forgot his name though.
That weight up front works!
That was amazing 🤩🤩
How did you manage to not line up the audio with the video?
Saw the guy waving the Jamaican flag. I couldn't help but think about Cool Runners 😅
Amazing 🙏really great 👌👌👌
The guy in the back for Canada was buff as hell
Since when was it called bob bobsleigh
I thought it was bobsled
Golden Retriever both. It might be a regional thing.
Why is the audio so off
the winner should be the cameraman, its faster than the sled
😂😂😂😂
the commentary is way off :p
How far do they go in a run
that was sooo sleek, the usa one.
How do you get the audio this wrong!?
Me and the boys on our way to Tim Hortons
Me and the boys goin' to buy that new PS5
62 years?!?! Now that is a mega drought.
Is it just me, or is the commentator not synched up with the sled going down?
GO BOBSLEDDERS, GO!!!
Oh man is so Amensing 🤲🏿and goo
Team USA for the win!
I can’t wait for women to finally be added as four team rather than just two team.
How do some people consider this a sport but not video games
Sport is generally thought of as physical competition while gaming competitions are simply gaming competitions such as chess
how is this a sport? it should be an amusement ride.
I'd suggest watching some gopro bobsled footage. It's much harder than it looks.
I agree. The only risks if you get it wrong is being paralyzed or death.
Never watched Cool Runnings I see.
Milford Cubicle bobsledding is hella hard.
Ain't that easy, the entire team needs coordination and weight control.
awesome
Bobsleigh arthletes have the biggest butts in the business
I kind of don't understand the Olympic games like this that requires such specific facilities
how did i get here
So like how do you even play
cool cool
USA guy the biggest 😂😂, damn straight
Im fast af boi
When will india participate

Bobsled run:
Want them to give me their 🍑🍗 workouts
is any of them asking themselves what they're doing with their lives?
Have you done anything with your life as significant as win a gold medal at the Olympics?
Why are their feet on the ice
To steer
They aren’t...
How do you train in this? Like what do you improve?
@Arne yes but how?
@Arne what skills do you improve to decrease your time?
aerodynamics, body physics - how to counter G forces and use them to your advantage. Very tiring sport
They’re doing this,but Miss America can't win one competition
So what do those guys in the middle do ?
keren
I hope, I just hope that you're aware that, in this sport, only big guys are likely to win, partly because of them being tall, heavy and muscular. Weight goes downhill faster, doesn't it? There you are, the trick is exposed. 4 skinny guys take longer to slide downhill than 4 fat guys, yes? Right. The moment you see 4 tall, heavy and strong men, you will have to guess they will win by a margin. Plus, the lighter the sledge the less it takes to gain speed, even by a kilo in difference, if you catch what I mean.
A person could say in professional basketball only tall guys are likely to win. In every sport the physical advantages that can give a person a competitive edge are known. Those things are a given.
I think we should give more attention to the skill in memorizing tracks, piloting, mastering the pushoff, navigating parts of the track with more or less friction, etc. The competitors are all heavy and strong what makes more of a difference is skill, luck, and how well funded their program is.
The engineering behind the sleighs is a good point you made. Some countries can afford to have the best engineers design the most aerodynamic sleigh out of expensive materials. I think that's where merit as well as margins are in question.
@@Dim.g0v That may be true, but there have only been 25 NBA players less than the average height of all men, out of 4,374 of all time. That's barely half a percent. And NBA players aren't relying almost purely on simple physics for 95% of the time.
@@RipleySawzen I think you're looking too deeply into the analogy and I took time to touch on the parts of the sport outside of the sledder's control.
does any skill required for this or its just about that sleigh
elite speed and strength at the start, the man in front steers the sled, and the man in the back handles braking.
Does anyone think this guy sounds like that guy from seconds from disaster xd
Because he is
What kind of sport is this
1:05
F f kdjeeidjsidie what!!!!! I don't understand the meaning of this sport
How is it a sport?
How is snowboarding? Looks like juvenile deliquents..
👍

1:04 #metoo
Could you blame the coach? I mean, look at those absolute DUMPTRUCKS and tell me you wouldn't grab a handful
@@mme9646 No I cannot blame him, those asses are 🔥🔥🔥
1:06 their pants look like plastic barbecue case
This is a real sport?!
Maria Uribe It is harder than it looks, watch a gopro video of it
Fua escubi como la viven
POV: You're Lana Rhoades kid
PVZ in Real Life
Is there any special skill involved in this ? I mean they pretty much just sitting in a sled sliding down a hill.
nope and ýes
Yeah, the person in the front steers so they have to line everything up perfectly so that they can go fast but not fall off the track
It actually takes a lot of training
@@LlamasAtMidnight that's what I meant
So much cake Im bout to CUHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Is this the one with the BMW sled lol
To think... this whole process started in jamaica in 87
Yeah never seen a Canadian look a bit german
1:14 EINS! ZWEI! DREI!
Don’t want to be rude....but how tf is this a sport...Olympic at that. And wrestling can’t get covered on ESPN
I would eliminate a quarter of the nonsense categories in the Olympics...summer and winter...
this sport is kinda funny and cute?
I can't believe people call this a sport... 😂 I mean it looks like a lot of fun but all they do is sit in a sled 🛷.
There's more to it than that.
@@2cache504 I know I've watched Cool runnings. 😂
why tho
1:05 why did he smack the athletes' butts?
Edward V Ass slapping happens in virtually every sport
@@calvinnotklein6368 I can do w/o it...
@@calvinnotklein6368 - Not the way it was seen in that video. Normally the slapping of butts might happen after you make a great play, not before you start playing. Maybe that guy just likes to touch a butt.
finisher3x Eh that’s debatable. It’s bobsledding. You really can only say you made a great play after EVERYTHING is over. Plus you know to just hype them up. I see it happen more in high school football anyways before the game.
@@calvinnotklein6368 - No way. I've never seen coaches or players smack each other on the butt before the game, in high school or any level. During the game and after great plays, yes.
.
This is time trials
i´m here for their butts
1:00-2:00
Does this take any skill though? Why is it an Olympic sport?
They are controlling the sled and have to take the best turns to win as fast as they can
i went to this place today!
$80,000 for a bobsled. Ridiculous.
