I love how the girls probably took the guys abilities/hobbies into consideration with the items. Ned with the ball and he plays soccer, Keith is a juggler, Eugene is a dancer and Zack..well to quote Eugene’s mom “he is there” lol but probably something that wouldn’t hurt him if he dropped it on himself with his chronic pain
@@Emily-ud2kd less so than the apparatus Keith was given for example. No disrespect to the hoop, I’m sure it’s one of the most difficult to maneuver with!
I've never really watched the Try Guys, but I am SO impressed by how they aren't afraid to act 'feminine' and completely throw masculinity out the window. This was such a great video overall, but what made it for me was them putting on leotards and embracing the elegance of the sport. Very refreshing to see!
Watch the try guys and you'll alwayas get that. That toxic masculinity is something they never have shown, and as time has passes they have grown more comfortable with themselves. And their first video was trying women underware so... They are always up to anything, ANITHING and many videos are of them in some sort of nudity sometimes, so the fear went away long time ago xD
@@emmalee8548 i don't need to be a doctor to know that lol. They actually made a video about it a couple of years ago and they had to get tested and the results show they all got low T levels.😂
@@marvyncruz2775 most males nowadays when they get tested come up low for testosterone. Part of me has to wonder if their ranges are a little off to try and sell more hormone products.
Having the Try Guys on really helps to put into perspective just how IMPRESSIVE these pros are! Really incredible skill, contrasted with big time beginners haha. And it was so nice to see everyone just having fun together! They have surprisingly organic on-camera chemistry with the athletes. Overall, just a fun medium for getting to know the sport :)
@@AnxietyRat Exactly. As a teacher myself, I always tell a student that is steering off course that they have great ideas, but to shift gears a bit and see how they can do more with them
this is the WILDEST crossover and i am in LOVE. i had to do a double take on the vid cuz it looked like an Olympic and Try Guys vid with the thumbnail styling and it's both 🤯
I remember for Nutcracker one year they gave me and my duo partner ribbons. So glad we learned and trained it without pointe shoes at first! We got so wrapped up in them for the first few weeks 😂
Each apparatus seems like they were selected for each of the try guys’s actual strengths- Ned plays soccer, Keith juggles, Eugene is a dancer. And then there’s Zach…
Ned: genuinely shocked and disappointed he was in fourth Zack: literally just happy to be there, standing on a thing Eugene: proud of his score and proud of his best friend Keith: trying to keep in his excitement, needs to put himself down to bring himself up
What I love about the athlete teachers is that, during the apparatus section, they teach the guys tricks they can do based off of how they're handling the items already. Eugene gets very graceful spinny maneuvers, Zach gets the fun skippy motions, and Ned and Keith get more tactical tosses. They're really encouraging and fun and helping the guys be less intimidated by it.
If anyone is into learning more about RG as an American I can say the Russian team is the best. Notable gymnasts are Alina Kabaeva, Evgenia Kanaeva, Yana Kudryatseva, Rita Mamum, Alexandra Soldatova, Daria Trubnikova, Lala Kramarenko and the two girls who will be going to the OG games this year are twins Arina & Dina Averina !! Look them up !
YESSSS, as a figure skating fan and rhythmic gymnastics fan I totally recommend getting into a sport where Russians dominate. The drama is always so steamy.
I love how positive the two women are! They looked genuinely happy when the guys managed to do something and they obviously were playing to their strengths and weaknesses and the differing skill levels. Eugene having a background in dance and martial arts, Ned having a background in soccer, giving Zach a large item thats not quite as finely detailed as like the ball for his chronic pain.
Omg, as a Russian I watched this video with such tenderness and excitement!!! In our country people really do take pride in artistic gymnasts such as Dina and Arina Averins, Margarita Mamun, Alina Kabaeva, Alexandra Soldatova and many many other talented girls ❤️ This kind of sport has always been cherished and highly appreciated!! Thank you for such positivity and joy :)
I think this series was a brilliant idea. I have never really been into The Olympics but after seeing how all of these spots work and the fun people can have along with thr hard work and years of practice is eye opening. This will be my first year watching the Olympics for SURE.
@@GumGirl find a job you enjoy and you'll never work a day in your life. Just bc they have to have dedication and concentration doesn't mean they don't have fun. You can be completely professional in your field and still have fun. You don't have to be a robot.
@@jennayynunya3171 You know it doesn't work that way. A job you enjoy still feels like a job. Competitions aren't fun, unfortunately, they're pure stress and tears. It's all because humanity is obsessed with rivalry and pointing the winner
@@GumGirl Be negative all you want. I know what I know. You know what you know. Don't tell people what they know and don't know. I hope you have a wonderful day.
There's 8 videos total from this collab! 4 are for premium RU-vid accounts only, but the other four are viewable for free. All 8 are up on the Olympics channel already.
@@GenXsinglefree I’m not from the US. The vast majority of people, except maybe for ex-soviet countries, have never heard of this sport. There are a lot of sports that are super popular in some places and virtually unknown elsewhere. Ski jumping for example. Super popular in Poland, for example. Most people don’t know it even exist in most other countries.
@@morningstar8187 There are so many sports that only get air time during the Olympic games. Also, many sports are seasonal, some are expensive and then others have the danger factor. That's why you can really call a particular sport the most underrated. It's all about what's accessible.
As both an ex rhythmic and artistic gymnast this makes me so happy! Rhythmic gymnastics is so underrated!! Honestly had the time of my life doing rhythmic, even more than artistic (although I enjoyed that too)
it's actually so cool how each apparatus match their personalities. they instantly bonded with what was given and eugene was literally glowing i'm surprised keith didn't mention if he had some history with the clubs 😂😂
I’ve got to say my favorite part of this video is watching Eugene frolicking with his ribbon in the background while unknowingly stumbling into Keith’s batons 10:24
LOVE THIS SO MUCH - not only do we get average guys doing olympics plus them respecting the sport, we also get some fun facts!! thanks tryguys and olympics
I agree completely, they really released four videos at the same time and barely advertised them. The only reason I knew about it was because it came on my suggested.
Maybe they want to preserve their Brand and not get labeled as "Sell Outs"? It was my first reaction....Like, woah, really jumping onto THAT bandwagon? Not that they shouldn't. They should make money. Just my reaction. Tis' my thoughts.
As it's on the Olympics channel, the Second Try team probably didn't have much say in how the Olympic marketing team promoted and released the content, unfortunately. I've been seeing info about this series from the Try Guys social channels for about a month, though. You'd think a marketing team for a huge organization like the Olympics would be better equipped to promote their content. I've seen more offical Olympics promotion about the network TV version of this beginners and pros concept with the Jonas Brothers than the Try Guys series.
@@bluefox99887 Yeah, I don't blame the Try Guys at all bc I'm pretty sure it was out of their hands. It's just disappointing bc this is one of the coolest things they've ever done
Honestly, I love this. They need to do this every olympics. Primarily because it teaches non altheletes about the sports, and shows just how hard but also how fun they can be. I love this so much.
Just a note that they got something wrong. The current code of points for rhythmic gymnastics has no maximum total difficulty value meaning it can go above ten which all of this year's Olympic hopefuls in RG have :>
@@Mikibear222 @M R This is the current code of points they're using though. The code changes every 4 years and the one they mentioned was from the previous code of points. Sadly, even the organization that governs gymnastics (FIG) hasn't updated their website about rhythmic gymnastics. Maybe the Olympics org in charge of this was given an outdated file by the FIG or smth...also, even the upcoming suggested code of points for after the Tokyo Olympics doesn't have a cap on the difficulty score.
@@sayfrites My thoughts too. Even FIG, the org that governs rhythmic gymnastics doesn't update their website. It's sad :< They could have made a gymnast or a rhythmic gymnastics judge review this too before publishing it but ohwells...
How did I only just hear that this series existed?! What a wonderful project! It's a nice example of how these activities are something most people can have fun with, while also being challenging to do expertly.
@@zvezda553 totally..I mean they have been unbeatable every olympic cycle but specifically this one they always score many points higher than any other country
@@zvezda553 Not entirely true! Linoy Ashram from Israel has come veeery close in the last few years, even beating the top Russians in apparatus finales or becoming second between two Russians. Also Alina Harnasko from Belarus has a fair chance. In the group competition the Russian team has been beaten quite some times already the last few years! However the Russians have nerves of steel and that's what will probably help them at the Olympics, the others tend to make more mistakes when the pressure gets too high!
