The guy who did the last hit was a cadet, meaning he was 14-16 -year old. I think that makes the hit even more impressive

oh was one of the athletes who got me into fencing. i watched the 2021 gold medal match and i decided that this was it, this is my sport

You have marvellous taste, good sir. That last hit was glorious

1:40 was just 💯👌

The Oh hit, Kiefer hit, Meinhardt hit, and the last hit with the epee dude with the long name were amazing.

World Fencing Day! 😃 I hope you all can fence normally soon Out of all of them, the #1 for me is the final clip 👌

Year late, but that Meinhardt touch is just legendary

I find it cool that the foil section is the married couple Lee Kiefer and Gerek Meinhardt getting the touches

i had to replay the last bit 3 times to understand what he did was amazing... but that romanian chick was hilarious lmao ...

Ooh somebody increased the editing budget, you love to see it!

We have the same favorite men's foil and men's epee touch!

I would just point my sabre at the opponent and yell: "EXPELLIARMUS!!!" 👍

Last hit 🔥😬

That'll wake you up...

First bout, perfect example of someone taking for granted that they will hit.

mens epee rlly made my jaw drop

This is very nice, those hits are Amazing! But for the next one you could try tho choose some more "built" points, instead of these more kind-of-impromptu ones, it could be very cool too in my opinion

Sure I totally understand all of this.

can some one explain who won each point and what constitutes a hit

Why are they attached to the cable?

0:41 0:47 I guess that's he is named OH Sang-uk

wth was that last one !!!! OMG

I don’t even understand how did that happen at the last one ? Can someone explain ?

Did Piskovatskov do a Chamley-Watson in epee?

1:48 i am romania❤️❤️🇷🇴

Her head look sideways 😂

Does that hurt?

One time. 2:05

I love this sport. Most people don't know the origins of fencing but it is easy to see once it is explained. Way back in history, the 1970s, two teenager had taken the fiberglass rods off their bikes, it had been very popular to attach flags to children's bicycles, using a very long rod of thin fiberglass. If you detached the flags from the bicycle and stripped the flag off the rod, it became a semi bendy whip like weapon. The two teenager found that it was very entertaining to try and whip each other with the fiberglass rods, well, until each of them actually made contact and found out that getting whipped by a long piece of fiberglass rod really hurts! That sudden but short lasting whip fight, so long ago, eventually evolved into the sport that fencing is today. Two combatants whipping at each other with now metal rods, but never actually making real contact because like those two boys in the alley, with their fiberglass rods, they are a bunch of pussies playing at combat, while not resembling actual combat in any way.

That last one was very obviously an American the way he just tensed his whole body and put all his strength into that swing.
