It's usually pretty boring to watch lmao

@@lucedoke975 lmao

@@lucedoke975 Dude this was fascinating.

Im on a rowing team mysekf, and yeah, its sad knowing that this isnt such a big sport

I think that’s every sport

True!

I talked to Damir about the medal, he said that he was happy because he gave his best and that he would feel the same if he won any other medal. He also said Mahe deserved it because he has 10 years of experience more than him.

i dont want to be pessimistic but i dont think that he is going to win.

@@Leloni535 why not?

@@xingforyou2439 Oli Ziedler etc. and hes not in the single anymore as far as im conserned.

he's a class act, and so are all the other Croatian athletes!

@@Leloni535 try again

The kiwis know how to pull off a uniform

T. Purkess yes we do

What boat does he row?

@@AdityaMoudgal had an empacher 1x in London and then a custom Filippi 1x from 2016 onwards that he still uses.

@@callumbland7798 thanks for the reply. I saw Filippi had uploaded a video of the boat he rows.

it's the amount of pain that you need to be prepared for with hard training, it's insane.

I was 2000 meters

@@Simon-xi8tb true

have you ever rowed before? If you have, that's not the sort of thing rowers usually say.

Lucas Orlebeke it’s because I have rowed before that I could relate to the pain crossing the 1500 taking it home to the 2000

mroriona2 I like your KZfaq channel logo, Doctor Who, my channel is dedicated to the music from the TV show, thought u may be interested.

who won the new zealander or the croation

the new zealander

After this race, Steve Redgrave said that Damir would have won if he'd just paused before the line and let the boat surge forwards. Literally that catch of the last stroke slowed the boat just enough for Mahe to sneak his bowball (and no more) ahead on the line

Shadowwolf TD5000 though steven is the most succesful rower of all time and his name will be honoured for many years to come, he wasn't what you'd call a "technician". He relied on pure strength in every one of his races so i'd say he isn't the best man to talk to when you wanna talk technique

No

no

Tim?

There is a reason they have the metal gates holding them in. In any regatta outside of worldcup/world champs and olympics it would most likely be a tie

Clogs are a requirement for Senior World's and Olympics so its just a case of holding the stern steady.

Steve Redgrave was saying that if he'd let the boat run on the last stroke then he would have won

martin would've won only if drysdale didn't have such a quick recovery

yessss what a race he has huge ballsssss

You can try to check the Finnish Rowing Federation website to see if they have a list of clubs around the country. Good luck! www.melontajasoutuliitto.fi/

Olympic Thank you!

Momcilo Bajovic tako treba za hrvatsku 😂Šalim se

sve pohvale ljudino!

Schmitt Gábor stop being a sore loser ... drysdall was just ahead where it counted !!!!

@@penguinman2569 Have a close look at the photo. Notice how its been photo shopped??? Look at how they stretched the number 4 in comparison to the 5. The croat was robbed, pure and simple.

groovyme1234 this is what photofinish pictures always look like, they are shot like this (and strechted) so the difference can be seen more easily)

@@DaanvanH Please show me one example of where else they have done this, anywhere! Also, why is only one part of the photo stretched??

groovyme1234 bruh photo finish pictures always look wack

If you are right about the buoy line and the finish line then these two guys should swap medals.

It is

@Boshy 666 have you even done rowing lol? sure you can maybe get the hang of it quickly but to do it to this extent, nothing but extremely hard

On average I would say it takes about 3:50 or 4min to do 1000m (if you only do 1km and push hard) As for the speed, we measure that in time/500m(known as pace) I think an olimpic athlete could go about 1:30min/500m, maybe faster, but only for a very short time (that would be 20km/h)

@@Santi-hh1tp Nice! Thank you. I'm actually trying to guage for long-distance trips. I'm in Belgrade and there's a large river here called the Danube. I want to try to learn to scull, then scull to a small via the river that's about 24 kilometers away. I'm wondering how long it would take me. Buy bike it's about an hour.

@@nikolasirovica3250 In that case, I would say about 2hrs. But I should say that the sculls are competition boats, and are designed to go as fast as possible, but are very unstable. If you want to start rowing long distances maybe try normal rowing boats (I think in English it's called sweep rowing) Sculls are also quite expensive, so I would recommend joining a rowing club.

@@Santi-hh1tp Thanks! Yeah I guess ideally i'd like to find something that goes fast and long-distance, but maybe that doesn't exist. I'm new to rowing, generally i cycle. A row boat would be great, but they seem to go super slow and then it's not as exciting :D

@@nikolasirovica3250 Yeah I totally understand! Though rowing boats aren't as slow as they seem, specially fiber ones. If what you want is to row as exercise, a rowing boat is still a very good choice. But if you can afford a scull, its most definitely worth it. If the river is not too wavy you could use a scull with no problem. (They are usually used in lakes or closed canals with still water). I hope I've been helpful. Good luck!

In 8:42 the Croatian actually gets to the line first this was a corrupt win

@@no-gracias9863 It was not corrupt. It was "strictly" in accordance with the regulations, because it is who cuts the line first, and by the thickness of a fingernail, they detected that Drysdale had "won", by a photograph of that moment when both bows cut through the plane. Hugely magnified, hugely accurate. Your sentiment is correct though. In the last stroke, Martin's body (85% of the all-up mass of boat/sculls and athlete) was about 30cm ahead of Drysdale, but his boat was at a different part of the stroke cycle, the stroke's finish, where it is pushed back away from the race finish line. Had he just fixed his position at the catch in that last stroke, ho would have been a clear Gold Medallist. Rowing applies the rules with a almost obscene level of rigidity. Any athlete would surely say "both get Golds" - it has happened in athletics sprint races, where there is "interpretation" of the relative merits of an apparent dead heat..

Rowing is timed down to a thousandth of a second but TV only displays up to a hundredth. It is what the athletes sign up to when they first start in the sport internationally.

40 strokes/minute....at least

44/45

I think even higher, like 46 spm or closer to the 50s

Because Mahe was faster 0.0000002 according to the blurry foto finish picture 😂😂 Its a bullshit . Shouldv been 2 golds . Its a 2000 meters 7 minute race and they count 0.0000002 seconds and in swiming 50 meters they give gold for 0.1 seconds. Unreal bullshit and no sportmanship towards Martin. Poor guy

@@010MACS I hope you are right. Since it's a handwriting type of font they chose. Which is also questionable lol.

Of course not. Check out the "i" on official font list.
