The Highest Scoring Dive EVER! 

That's an easy loss to swallow, actually.

In front of*

Yeah that happened to me last olympic

Literally all those dives looked perfect. I'm at a loss as to how his dive was in any way different than the Chinese guys

@@TheChrist4ylor his technique was just better. If you look at the slow mo, you see him perform each maneuver fully, he got good height without traveling too far to the front or side, his body is aligned literally almost perfectly when he enters the water, his feet are together, and a big thing too, very little water splashed. That just shows how straight his body was when he entered the water. Yeah, the Chinese diver was really good, but his was just amplified. I've only ever watched te sport, I'm sure someone more qualified cam point out the differences better, but from an audience's perspective, those are just some of the things to look for

No i prefer it with a bunch of edits and crappy music

@@AD-sp5cv lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣

We can slo-mo the winning dive on settings!

@@carolmiller5713 if only we knew which one

@@AD-sp5cv dude I’m still choking on my coffee from your comment. You’re the best.

Matthew Mitcham: Me when I put my toe in the water: Sploosh!

Wrong, a pebble hitting the water will make a smaller splash.

Gave me bumps o.o'

Ikr

And it he did under greater pressure being the last dive. IMPRESSIVE

It was the dive right before that one, the 5255B dont know why they couldnt have captioned which dive it was when it's the highest of all time??!

that made me angry

Obviously

Thanks, the montage is really confusing.

Wow that is embarrassing

Awwwww wow great information thanks. Salvador Sobrino. Will make note of his name! Thanks again.

thats awesome thanks for posting, much love from Florida!

Awesome!

No one cares

@@not-woke -I, & 15K ( so far) DO care ... You're 1 of the 389 (so far) who DON'T!

Exactly. What was that?

@@5TA1KR Very poor editing.

Watch it in 0.25

this video is stupid.

But it was no?

Takes two to tango, 1st place didn’t flop this time (ie China usually averages in the mid 90s or better on final dive).

Post a link to the video

@@TheJewinator bro he watched it live…

When Matt Mitcham did it the highest degree of difficulty was 3.8, which means a perfect score was 114 and the highest possible score apart from a perfect one was 112.1 - (10.0 + 10.0 + 9.5) x 3.8.

Please see my comment above; “records” in judged events are really meaningless.

Yeah it is kinda against all odds cause the Chinese always dominate in diving.. You can be really proud of your fellow Australian!! 😁

@@evab.6240 So you're a model from Slovenia? 🤔🇸🇮

@@Sidionian bruh LMAO can she comment without getting hit on

@@jonathantran7102 this is so nice tbh

Why couldn't an Australian do that?!! Come on!

@@CarstenNRW ok mate

Yeah, that literally was true until the last dive. The point is the Asian guy had the consistency while the Aussie guy did well on that particular day

@@dgr8oneme And that is about, who does the BEST performance on the day.

Diving is the only sport the Asian might be better at.I think it may have something to do with weighing 90 lbs

Lol after that day Asian clean all

@KombatBard i second the motion my friend never knew this either.😅

@KombatBard same 😏

@KombatBard same here dear. ধন্যবাদ... thanks

Me: I was 4 lmao

Probably people with dementia

Lol

Haha the spinny spinny stuff lmao

@Joshua Lister That was funny Joshua. I like your sense of humour.😁

Joshua Lister: Thanks Joshua. Only just got this notification 8 p.m. 4th August. Don’t know who you are or even which country you live in but the fact that you’d had a tough day somehow has driven home to me and made me sad. Hope it was “one off” and that all’s well now. Greetings from Wales, U.K.

@Joshua Lister I have to say the day I saw this was a tough nhs day here in uk and it made me smile

Frfr

Bruh

This is golden

🤣🤣🤣👌👌👌

Lol

Ikr🤣

yeah that was really weird. also the degree of difficulty on the 1:28 dive is significantly higher than the 407c at 1:36

Actually they were different jumps the editor seems to have made a mistake I guess

That was the joke

indeed. weird editing choice. That last dive needed a slow-mo replay it was so perfect

Yeah, that was strange. I went back and watched it on mute at 0.25 speed, though - it's flawless!

Exactly. 💣

Zhou Luxin: here is your bronze medal.

Yes. I thought Zhou Luxin got far too low a score for his flawless dive. Something smells bad there. But that is not to say Mathhew's dive wasn't worth what it got.

@@LeahRobb -- I have no clue if he was cheated, there is such a thing as 2 dives being perfect, but one may have a higher degree of difficulty so it gets a slightly higher score. My only point was Zhou Luxin did a near or an absolutely perfect dive. There is zero shame in what he did. He was crying while deserving everyone's respect.

@@Erin-Thor I don't think LeahRobb meant Zhou Luxin cheated. He meant that Zhou got a score lower than he was awarded.

@@stickymoney - I said was cheated, not that he cheated. 😎

@@Erin-Thor great to be aligned.

Lmfao

I was about to say: What happened to J5?

And she's only 14

@@jxswu3224 yeah so amazing! The silver medalist is from China, too, and she's just 15, tpp. Wow!

and she did it twice. that was crazy to witness

His final dive was a 5255B, Back 2 1/2 SS, 2 1/2 Twists Pike. It was shown right before the slowmo of his Inward 3 1/2

Kung Flu'ers got a 150.00 diving into pool filled with savory bat tidbits! PERFECT SCORE PMSL!

@@johnhung8393 how about you? There is nothing you can achieve except spewing epithets.

underrated comment

hahahhaa!

lol

lame

🤣🤣🤣

Matthew's final dive is superior to any one of Quan's dives but only because he's got more power and is a greater gymnast. What Quan Hongchan did in 2021 this week was one of the most legendary performances in individual sports history. She transcended beyond the sport of diving itself.

Why’d you spell Tokyo like that lol

@@TheSuperanimedrawer forgot to translate, it’s written like that in German :D

@@janajanina13 that is a cute spelling haha

@@moegerms A more detailed way to explain it is simply, there are two grading systems in diving, difficulty score (both the body of the dive itself and the entrance difficulty) and execution. Men in general perform more difficult dives (for example, Quan had a difficulty rating of 3.2 whereas most men try to perform 3.6 or greater difficultyin the finals). The difference in difficulty is due to the addition of a twist during the dive in Quan vs Men case (she performed a 2 1/2 somersaults and 1 1/2 twist compared to 2 1/2 somersaults and 2 1/2 twists). Quan’s collections of dives are considered more or less perfect but in lower difficulty. The final score is the middle three execution scores multiplied by difficulty. Therefore she capped at 96 (10 been the perfect score for execution, (10+10+10$x3.2=96)
