Ninh explains, the Rules of PBR Professional Bull Riding - the most dangerous 8 seconds in sports! Slight mistake in the video - the riders just hold onto the rope, not the flank strap. Other than that - it's the same.

So one day in America some dude looked at some bulls trying to get stuff off their backs and was like "I bet you 5 shots you can't ride that thing for more than 8 Mississipis"

This is a really good beginning explanation! I just wanna add some things (I know some of these have been said below, but I wanted to make one cumulative list in case anyone wanted more information). 1) As Ninh posted, the flank strap is tied down by the bull’s hind legs (or “flank”) and that is what makes the bull kick. No, there is no involvement of the bull’s bits as some people will try to tell you. That’s anatomically impossible. The bull rider will hold on to his bull rope. 2) The main goal is to stay on the bull for eight seconds. Once the bull rider has accomplished that, they get off as safely as possible. There are no points given for dismount style, but some cowboys have their own signature dismount. 3) The cowboy doesn’t get to pick his bull. There is a draw before the event. Some rodeos allow the cowboy to draw his own out of a hat or something similar, some rodeos assign cowboy to bull by a randomized program (usually the bigger rodeos). 4) Bull fighters are usually not rodeo clowns, but rodeo clowns are usually bull fighters. A bull fighter is not there to make the crowd laugh. They are there to jump in front of that bull after the bull rider’s dismount. Whereas a rodeo clown is usually a trained bull fighter that puts more emphasis on entertaining. 5) some more words that may just be interesting/useful to know are rosin (a sticky resin used on gloves and bull ropes to maintain grip), rank (adjective describing a particularly well performing bull), and go-round, short-go, and aggregate (go-round is an individual score, short-go is the final round of scoring, and aggregate is the culmination of those scores). 6) when spurring, there’s a term called toes out which is holding the feet at a 90° angle to the bull which helps score higher for spurring. 7) I think this was already mentioned in the video, but score is out of 100 and can only get scored if there’s an eight second ride. 50 points can come from the bull and 50 from the bull rider. Two judges score the bull and bull rider and then average those scores. 8) A bull rider can become disqualified if his free arm touches any part of himself or the bull, including his other arm or his hat (which are the most common) If you think of anything else a beginner may want/need to know, add it below!!

This sport just got more interesting now that I know the rules. Let a lone that they have rules.

Mad respect to the bullfighter at 2:52 for jumping right infront of a bull to save the rider

Actually a far more entertaining sport than you might imagine.

Me: sees title... Also me: Are there rules?

Branching out, eh? just throwing this out there: there are a lot of forms of auto racing with various rules/tactics/techniques/etc, if you ever get short on video topics :P

Ninh, I'm glad to see you're in a better place and these sports and your life coaching videos are all of substance. I am a happy consumer and will continue to watch. Thank you for the content.

anyone else hear ken's theme from street fighter 5 in the backround?

Very impressive on these videos! Especially those few last videos on sumo wrestling and fencing.

I see Bull riding in the Colliseum of Stockyards, Forth Wort, Texas. Nice place. BPR are popular in Brazil. In Argentina we have "jinetada". But we use horses, they jump more higher and move more faster. It's not better, it's just different. Great job man.

Awesome video for the the beginning viewer. I saw an event recently and was in awe. Thank you!

Thank you for doing this! Best one on KZfaq to this day ✌🏼

I love PBR. The shear insanity of it.

yeah ill vote for pesapollo too. just watched a few rounds and have zero idea what the heck is going on. :)

Nice use of the "Street Fighter II" music!

This was a great video

Good video, keep it up

Thank you!

They don't try to stay on as long as possible. When they reach 8 seconds, they jump off and they're only judged on the 8 seconds.

Very good :)

Hey while we doing Rodeo can u do bronc riding saddle and bareback

Why do the bull jumps/twists etc…? Is it a natural thing or do they do something to the animals?

Good video. Their are a few things wrong though: The rope that the rider holds on to isn’t the flank strap it’s a bull rope the flank strap is the rope tied around the bulls waist. Other then that it’s all pretty correct. Will you be doing the other 7 rodeo events such as calf roping or steer wrestling?

I saw a video whereby a bull rider used both arms and wasn’t disqualified. How was that possible? You can only use one arm for bull riding right?

Can the next sports video be a quick explanation of all archery sports?

The flank is not a bull rope, they are two different things, the flank is the little strap by the bulls hind legs.

I'd love to see a Pesäpallo (Finnish Baseball) video. It's the one sport I've ever watched, and haven't sort of picked up the rules. It seems absolutely alien to me.

🐂 Thank You!

You should check out Jallikattu. I doubt you would have enough material to make a video but just thought of putting it out here.

Other than the obvious are there any differences between this and Bronco riding?

Holds on by “the Flank strap”😂😂

M from India,, I wanna do this it's pure adventure,,, love

a few other mishaps in this video's explanation of bull riding: there are at least 2 judges, and each judge has a total of 50 pts. of that 50, the horse or bull is scored 1-25 and the rider the other 1-25. (same with the other judge , and both judges scores are added together for a combined score.) staying on longer than 8 seconds doesn't do anything for the rider other than get him in trouble. (with good, rank stock , you don't find folks being able to hang around for photo opps.) no extra pts for staying on longer than an 8 second ride. next, a wreck in cowboy lingo, is simply "one hell-of-a-crash."

@zuroslav; in rodeo, it's determined what bucking horse, bull, they ride, calf, or steer is roped or dogged on what's called "a draw". the draw is a random process (now often done with computers) that randomly assigns the animal to the contestant. in the old days, and still sometimes today, various stock numbers representing bucking bulls or horses are placed in a hat. the hat is held high by an individual at the rodeo office, and the contestant reaches up and blindly picks a number out of that hat. that number will be his assigned animal. this is where the old saying, "the luck of the draw" came from.

Yep, after seeing your video about the calcio storico, I don't even found this PBR dangerous.

just for the record, i wasn't writing to be overly critical. i 've lived this lifestyle and possess first hand experience.

The flank strap makes the bull buck but the thing that the bullrider hangs onto is called a bullrope

I was hoping you would explain how the rider can score extra points by spurring

Wonder if they serve pbr at a pbr competition

How do they decide which cowboy rides which bull ?

How fitting for the Reno Rodeo.

Can you make a video on Indian version "JELLIKETTU"

could someone please tell me why after every bull ride, the bull returns to the caged enclosure voluntarily?? Shouldn't the bull actually be interested in getting out of captivity?

Ninh Ly got the music right this time, because all the bull does is spam Ken's AJAKJAKCUCKJAAKKJAK

Something tells me having a good grip helps a little in the event.

Everyone watching this video: Oh ok, these are the rules. Me: *GO GO POWER RANGERS!*

Great video keep it up one day you will be in a race for the top KZfaqr and I never knew that kept a bull score

The flank is the rope on the back next to the butt the rope they hold on to is a bull rope I own bulls

2:56 KO

do the rules of polo

How to do the riders prevent getting dizzy?

am i the only one who finds it funny when the ride goes wrong

how do they get the bulls

The rules of Arnis

I have a couple friends who ride in the PBR

You've forgotten the challenge button.

It’s called a bull rope not a flank strap, the flank strap or flank rope is what’s tied around the bulls lower stomach kind of like where a belt would sit on a person. You ride by hanging on to your bull rope. The flank rope is what makes the bull kick

What I really want to see 1. Archery 2. MMA/UFC 3. More racquet sports (squash, etc) 4. Beach soccer/football 5. Pesapallo Anybody have any suggestions?

Rules of rounders

I bet they get an additional point for riding with a cowboy hat rather than a helmet or something similar.

4 of my column discs collapsed just by watching this video

Does bull know the rules?

Go Bull!

How about ice hockey

would you dare to explain the rules to do "castells"? The "Castellers" are what English spoken people call "human towers". They are many types of castles and all count points in competitions. Many roles inside the castle too. Although not a sport, requieres a hugue physical strenght, coordination and equilibrium.

0:20 that’s not a flank, that’s the bull rope. Flank goes around the bulls balls

I appreciate the Super Smash Bros. music... 👍

The cowboy holds onto the bull rope not the flank strap the rider is only supposed to stay on for 8 seconds the bulls are not just bulls they are bucking bulls only used in bull riding

Theres really only one. 1. HOLD ON TIGHT

8 seconds is a long time in this sport

Rules of water polo

There are a lot of terms and “facts” that are incorrect throughout this video

Whatttttt? Too Dangerous.

They're actually trying to get a rope off that's tied to thier waist not really getting the rider off

What😂 the flank strap😂, you hold onto a thing called a bullrope, its a braided rope with a braided leather handle

It's not a flank strap it's called a bull rope a flank strap is a totally different thing

IDC how much money anyone pays me... No amount of money is EVER gonna get me on a freaking bull for eight seconds!

Hmm... Bull rider on bull+bull fighter trying to get the bull to shake him off...

It not a flak strap it’s a bull rope

Oh god. This is the Extreme sport, I'm not gonna play it.

Ninh Ly it all done is Australia But is not high Protile

Confirm what comment I am it's really important

I have an interesting idea. How about you do Ninh Explains Esports like LoL, DoTa and Smite.

first

Rodeo clowns the bravest referees in sports

Likes:666 me:omg!

A flank strap is not what bull riders hold it is a bull rope. A flank strap goes on back end of a bull , the flank. Flank strap encourages the bull to kick out with his back legs ,and no it's not around their gentiles. Bull riders do not stay on as long as possible. This like saying QB in football will scramble as long as possible without sliding. Bull riders are judged on the ride which is 8 seconds. Any longer than that he risks endangering himself or the bull. Bull riders earn their money on rides. Stock contractors earn their money on that bull. So no one is wanting them to stay on long as possible. Just stating facts.

So those bulls are Professional, too. Born to kick human's butt.

I feel like this is animal abuse

Lol, using the same music as Sargon Of Akkad. Top kek

Lol whatever injury you get doing this you deserve it

Holy shit, animal cruelty aside, makes me want to do it.

Seeing the guys fly off is kinda satisfying. Poor bull, he just pissed off, we all would be.

you only ride for 8 seconds and the "flank strap" is in the bulls flank you use a bull rope to hang on. please no one listen to this guy he made a video that is full of lies.
