The Video Game Homecoming Halftime Show of The Ohio State University Marching Band (Oct. 6, 2012) 

You crazy as hell this complete garbage to most, you gotta be half dead to enjoy a band like this... It's the 21st century even high schools band stop these types of performances years ago.

@@sammyshehole no I like mainstream marching bands not some s*** from the 1930s

No one wants to watch a bunch of people marching like stiff mechanical robots

@@rover7139 🍌 🍌🍌

@@sammyshehole l like bananas like WW love B 🍆k

Bob Ross lmao

I laughed way more than I was supposed too

Ok new theory, maybe we should play so quietly that nobody can hear us..

LeWrenchDeNBP Yes

+Nasim Aleem The stick is called a baton, not a mase.

+gocaps108 It's a called a mase in Europe but a Baton in the Americas.

+Edward Fowler My apologize than. Did not know that!

It's fine, no need to apologize.

joe I feel horrible for the people who were the legs. No skipping leg day for that!

mi16reisen if you look at the front most leg you’ll realize that they actually stop moving for a bit

Not very many hours at all. This might be unbelievable, but if you join TBDBITL, you learn a brand new show like that every single week, for every football game's half-time show. What's even more unbelievable, is that these are students from OSU, they still have to study, attend classes, have a social life, and all while being in an amazing marching band.

I"m only 7 years late to your comment but that other person is right. These performances are learned so incredibly fast- it truly takes selecting the best students possible. It's so hard to get into this band, but also brutally hard to have a life outside of it. Impressive as f---- though!

FOR SURE!!! That is some kind of workout and I wasn't at Ohio state 🥵🥵🥵

I'm a former gymnast and national team rower, I realize stuff like this takes effort and practise.... But no, it's not a sport, sorry. Call it an art, call it theatre, call it a performance, call it a circus. But it's not a sport.

ABOlsen80X They have actually tested marching bands and found that they have similar heart rates and breathing as sprinters.

What's the dry cleaning bill for all those unis?

It’s not a sport. Just bc you lose weight doesn’t mean it it is sport tbh... it’s like saying walking is a sport

dropintospace yy

Thought I was the only who grew a tear 😢 haha

I actually cried like fr fr

I cried too lmao

yup

Yeah, I have 10-15 hours of marching band a week. It's insane. On top of that, we have competition which last all day.

@@jacobbuckley5777 is it rlly worth it tho 🤷‍♂️

@@daniel-hh5ss yes, yes it is. We're more of a family than anything.

From a physics standpoint, the stick is initially spinning in the counterclockwise direction. Once the end touches the ground, the ground exerts a torque causing the stick to now bounce back to the drum major but now in the clockwise direction. This works since there is enough friction between the stick and the ground, otherwise it would just slip and fall down flat. It is pretty much conservation of angular momentum.

It’s called a military not a stick

InfinityGauntlet it’s called a baton, not a military.

Lil Snubby it’s not

@@hamada3696 ive heared baton mace and military from different dms

Agreed

It's called a baton, not a stick

Kepl You’ll be tested like crazy, you have to be a robot

I'd love to go there too but I'm not a brass player

haha its very very hard!!!

its honestly not that hard

Well I'm in 7th grade, and the assistant drum major and when you never get practices unless youre at home its very very hard for me at least. It takes lots of hard work and education. The problem was this year is I don't even play a marching instrument I play oboe, and had to use flute music and lower it an octave. Now I'm in beginning band again learning trumpet.

Just wait till highschool

I know we played with the highschool a few weeks ago and we already play all the highschool music the highschoolers play and I'm on my second year T-T our band director is fucking crazy!! we had to memorize hard music that just looking at the music I could barely play!!

it isn't lol

No we dont think its a sport bc theres no competition involved, its purely entertainment.

Aneles Zemog marching bands go to competitions.

ICE Puncake at high school level? No.

Aneles Zemog yes. I'm in a high school marching band and we go to competitions

That part is so cool. Prefect timing with the music.

Physics.

Practice practice practice.

5:05 here too

🤣😂

Insane amounts of practice. I played football in high school and had some friends in marching band and they would still be practicing for hours after we were done. And that's just in high school, they'd do band camp in summer and the way they described it sounded more like a military boot camp.

Check out Drums Along the Rockies

Katthemermaidgirl lol yea

Providing entertainment while the band catches their breath :-)

Omar Hernandez how does he do that i am confused

Libby Prolo He's using the counter rotation from spinning the baton in a certain direction. Since the floor is a force the baton can't move, the baton is pushed back going counterclockwise and coming back from its original point. Physics is involved in this. Now how he timed it to go perfectly with the song? Well he's just a god because of that.

Omar Hernandez thank you he is cool i want to be like him but i am not going to bc i want to be a cop but maybe lol how do you become one?

Libby Prolo No problem. Oh really? That's pretty cool. Well your band director has to select one. You have to show leadership abilities and the prowess to lead a band.

Omar Hernandez ya i am 14 so still have time to thank but love to be a cop lol. Oh ok he is good one

the chior kids

anyone who understands this is not what a marching band is, they're literally the stereotype of marching bands

Anyone from Michigan

Evan Valencia anyone who hears the feet in their sound

Michigan

fermin benedetti Well it's about taste. Musically they are not. Everything is loud and pretty much out of tune.

LEKKERKOUD YT not to mention the feet in their sound

+Zephyr Gaming thank you! i appreciate it 😃

drummerjared17 Yy

It tbdbith the best dam band in the land

Michael Helsel yeah michigan got fucked

NO SHIT!!!

Just you

Best part of the video!

hell yea my man

love that part

Cried!!! Was not expecting halo!!
