Sailor's Hornpipe Highland dance competition at Kenmore Highland Games in Perthshire Scotland 2019 

That deserved a big round of applause. It looks an incredibly strenuous and difficult dance to do. Good job.

Gosh, they were both wonderful. Wish there was more hornpiping in the world!

Fantastic dancing. Too bad the announcer couldn't bring himself to shut up for 2 mins.....

Wish somebody could have found the mute switch for the guy talking over everybody...jmho

Lovely dancing worth everyone's undivided attention. The announcer was obviously a volunteer who did not realize it is rude to talk when people are performing. So distracting to the dancers and disrespectful.

Brilliant performances by both dancers.

Thats the best hornpipe ive ever seen, both very good dancers but the dark blue dancer has amazing positioning .

I surely can't be the only person to remember "H.M.S. Pinafore", with Sir Joseph asking the sailor Ralph Rackstraw "Do you know how to dance a hornpipe?" "No, sir" "That's a pity. All sailors should dance hornpipes."

Superb !! Well done both of you. This was very skilful and very traditional. Both dancers excelled (obviously well trained and know their craft). Lovely to watch. (best regards from England).

Alguien que haya llegado acá por tomas va a morir?

Fabulous dancing! Beautiful backdrop to the performance too! Love and peace.

This is my favorite video to watch! Beautiful dances! Bravo!

I'm learning this in my class. It's so hard. I feel like I'm never going to get it

Wow, they are good! Too bad that guy in the background kept talking. I wish they could of smiled a little bit.

I'm just here because of this: "In later years it was a tale told and retold, how the Lydia was towed into action with hornpipes being danced on her maindeck." - C. S. Forester, A Happy Return

Had to look this up because I didn't recognize the name. Just felt my Mom hit me upside the back of my head 🤣🤣🤣

She killed it!!

Crikey, that was amazing

My favourite dance is the hot pipe, won second the first time I competitively danced it I miss is a little 🫶

0:48 that squating movement of the boy is really nice to look at and I could imagine it being integrated in modern dances.

I love you Scottish people.

Well done!

Wonderful!!!

Is magnifique.

Vine aquí por el mago pirula

#765 Dark Blue .. He WON 🏆( just my vote ) 👍💖

Very good and interesting to see. Thanks. I believe that the "hornpipe" comes from a naval tradition - English or Scottish? - I'm not sure. The "hornpipe" here in Ireland is very different - with only foot-steps and no hand/arm movements.

Is it me or are the songs played differently by different musicians?

Морячка понравилась. Егоза.

Eu amo a Escócia, a sua história e cultura! I love Scotland, its culture and culture!

Wowie!!!

That looks fun.

That big piper player must be: Ross!

Great dance ..typical Scot would not shut up lol....less Whisky mate more tight lip on air..super dancing love it...Ray in Norwich city

I tried, and lasted about a minute. Dude, shut UP!

How does thos competition work

Does anyone know what the first tune they played is?

This is better at 1.25 speed : )

The announcer is very distracting. I don't think he would appreciate an announcer talking constantly if he were up there.

i SHOULD be asleep but nooo i’m watching THIS i need help

Put a plug in it, matey!

Kkk bacana ahah dança de marinheiro.

Aaaaw, has his mommy dressed him up like that?

Doing the hornpipe daily took the place of calisthenics.

👍👍👍

Bet she's fun. lol

pirates after they just finished plundering a ship and raiding the grand navy HQ

Who thought it would be a good idea to have the commentator yammering away?

Japanで、1番最初にhorn pipe danceを踊ったのは、宇和島の殿様の　伊達宗城さんですと、A Diplomat in JapanのSir Ernest Mason 佐藤さんは申しております。😊 凄い運動量だ、　ふぅ、疲れた。

The announcer 🙄

Во морячки... 🦆✌️

I'm not sure what all of that blabbering about a tug-of-war has to do with the dance.

would be better without the constant announcing, jfc

Great dance but overattentive commentary

Serious fitness needed, must have kept sailors amused trying to learn hard steps, on a tilting deck.

great but the announcer!! Not distracting at all. 🙄

The bloke on the left has clearly been in the navy too long; he's wearing lipstick! ... he has grown a great bum though.

Didn't notice until someone pointed out the lipstick, but the one in white is actually a woman. I'm almost positive. Look at the face, the fine structure of her cheeks and nose, the thin eyebrows. Wide hips and woman-like thighs, slender hands, and it looks like a swelling at the breast. The other guy is obviously a male. I think the sailor dress is just a requirement for the competition, but they can't (or won't) make it male only, especially since people able to dance a good hornpipe are not a dime a dozen these days. I might be wrong, and it's just a very feminine male wearing lipstick, but I doubt it. Many a trans male would kill to have a feminine body structure like that, but most of them are not so fortunate, and if they did have one, they probably wouldn't be hiding it by dressing up like a man.

Inconsiderate talkover!

0:58 what my grandpa expected when i told him im gay (the guy on the right)
