Mate that was not a gentle stop, a gentle stop would've been stopping before hitting those rubber mats at the end of the track that abruptly stops the sled
Nothing went wrong at the end. Perfect stop. The announcer is a drama queen. I am sure that the smart engineers who designed the track accounted for brakes failing.
They have backup plans for safety, because sometimes brakes do fail or the brake handles snap. Which also means that if your brake man has a bad start and doesn't get in, you're good. Lol.
Hi, grab your checklist here! ( ) Broom ( ) Paper fan ( ) Girl forgot her bib ( ) Italian team with no brakes ( ) American fails to get in the sled ( ) Elena misses her sled ( ) Sled drift
It's obvious!His teammate cut the brakes!It was an assassination attempt!That's why he didn't get in.And the other one was like "Wow,have you lost weight mate?We're not heavy enough"
Those saying that was a "perfect stop" have clearly never watched a bobsledding competition before. Nor paid attention. The bobsled was supposed to stop at 1:29 where the staff is telling him to stop. And as you can see, it went past that point. Plus it wasn't gentle either, you can see it hit the wall and was quite jerky. Those mats are far from perfect. Wasn't perfect to begin with since he didn't have his brakeman with him.
The Germans: Let's win again! The ice: *Execute Order 66* When you both promise to work on the group project, but you end up doing all of it...even if other countries like Germany wins medals, the Jamaicans will forever be the true victors of bobsledding.
Paper fans, brooms, crashes, missing sleds, forgeting bibs, broken brakes..This sport is better than most of the movies, always action - always surprise
Italian 4 man bobsled, same commentator. He's seen what can happen without brakes, you can build a track with longer runoff, but no one knows how it will handle until a sled comes flying through
"Unbelievable misfortune". After the broom, the invisible bib, the missed sled, the broken handbrake, and the paper fan, I'm starting to believe the winter olympics is all about misfortune.
The guy that fell, he still had a chance the get up and get back in to the vehicle, instead he stays down and then later takes a look on the vehicle, which stills not far from him. He gave up so easy.
For everyone talking about the commentator freaking out there is not usually that much help to stop at the end. Go watch any of the other videos where there is a crash / issues with the brake at the end
I keep seeing comments about some broom, what broom? I came to this video from a paper fan on the track, Italian bobsled without brakes, a woman missing her sled and then several crashes in Whistler 2016. I haven't seen anything about a broom lol.
Ironically, Francesco became the most successfull Bob Pilot in history during todays World Championship.. which also featured Mono-Bobs (for Women) for the first time.
I think we need this now: one person bobsled. Luge and skeleton are cool, but this would be cooler. Oh, and side by side tracks with over/under portions to equalize length!
Monobob is a thing! It's currently a women-only category (like there's only 4-man and no 4-woman bobsled), but I'd love to see a Men's Monobob (and on that note, a 4-women Bobsled)
Maybe I'm just too easy but I don't think you should be disqualified for an incident like that, especially at the start. Unless someone was injured, of course
At least no one was hurt. Equment good to go.. You train for so long and 1 little mistake takes you out. That is why it is called competition and only pros get to this leval. Regroup and try to do it again nxt time right.
I feel like I recognize the commentator from endurance racing (WEC etc), it doesn't happen to be John Hindaugh does it? Wouldn't be the first time, Jack Nicholls has commentated ski cross for instance.
Well, I know how to do it if you're jamaican and the sport doesn't exist in your country yet, and no one else believes in you. Thank you "Cool Runnings"! But more seriously I honestly have no idea. I guess you need to be in a country with a very cold winter?
"He's doing EIGhThY SIX miles an hour and he's got NO brakes!!" Guy glides to a gentle stop and steps out.
Oh Me Gawd.. :)
"He's going to try and jump out before it all goes wrong"....thud...."he's stopped"
well, go watch the Italian bobsled without brakes video, its the same commentator i think, that one was kind of gnarly at the end
Announcer was a drama queen and over exaggerated 🤣
Mate that was not a gentle stop, a gentle stop would've been stopping before hitting those rubber mats at the end of the track that abruptly stops the sled
Geez, the commentator talked like he was going to slam a brick wall and explode or something. lmao.
Watch the italian team that crashed without breaks, its pretty gnarly lmao
the sled did fall over sideways
lmfao this comment bro
Cuz he could
they could die tho legit?
From this disaster to double gold medalist at PyeongChang in 2018. Never give up on your dreams, kids!
and look at him now, he sure recovered well from this
Thank you for commenting this
He won Gold in Beijing 2022 as well (it was a full German podium O.o)
quadruple after Beijing 2022 :D
That sled looked like a real handful to control without the extra weight in the back. Nice driving.
#16 Racing was also attempting too slow down as he went. Hence the skids near the end.
I always though these were just autonomous after the initial push. These don’t have wheels it’s basically a person in for thr ride.
@@supercooled they have to steer around the corners and brake at the end
@@supercooled they don't have wheels, but they do have steeerable skates :)
Odd thing is they’re a few years early-there is apparently now a one-man (or one woman) bobsled championship now.
Driver thinking, "Maybe if I hit a broom on the way down, they'll give us another go."
*German coach discreetly throws broom onto track*
They could have thrown brooms and fans on the track to slow it down...
😂😂😂😂😂 I was looking for this comment! Thanks
LMAOO
@@motobc2251 he already wrote fans
whsts the reference?
@@sam-tr6ub other famous fail videos in the genre
You can't even see his face but he looks so done
I’ve just watched a person get hit by a fan and another one getting hit by a broom. NOW THIS! WTF is this
You as well?
Syriana Mohamed Looks like we all walked down the same road of TH-cam recommended
Wassup recommend gang
same haha it's 00:12 and so far today (and since yesterday) i've been watching these videos im making a playlist lmao
Wait u guys as well?
I feel so sorry for them. That's devastating after all that preparation and training. The other guy did well
Nothing went wrong at the end. Perfect stop. The announcer is a drama queen. I am sure that the smart engineers who designed the track accounted for brakes failing.
Brakes didn’t fail there in the back
They have backup plans for safety, because sometimes brakes do fail or the brake handles snap.
Which also means that if your brake man has a bad start and doesn't get in, you're good. Lol.
That was not a perfect stop, the sled should have been stopped well before that wall
Thank you. He sounded like a drama queen
In normal scenario sled stops much earlier. Had it been fully manned sled with no brakes it could've easily gone worse.
Hi, grab your checklist here!

"hes gunna jump out before it all goes wrong" casually steps out.
I can imagine how bad the brake man must have felt putting his driver in danger like that
Yo dude nice run!
Dude??
The brake man 700m in the distance:
👋 👁 👄 👁
Hey, why aren’t you pulling the breaks?
...fuck
It's obvious!His teammate cut the brakes!It was an assassination attempt!That's why he didn't get in.And the other one was like "Wow,have you lost weight mate?We're not heavy enough"

Okay
Not perfect but better than I was imagining
Nah im a bobsledder and i disagre
0:30 the girls is like: da fuq? XD
She's like: "Wait a minute 1... 2... heeeyy!!!"
😂
The commentator was making it sound like there was a cliff 1 inch after the finish line. Chill out old man
The Germans: Let's win again!
The ice: *Execute Order 66*
When you both promise to work on the group project, but you end up doing all of it...even if other countries like Germany wins medals, the Jamaicans will forever be the true victors of bobsledding.
if you didn't watch The Broom and Paper Fan before this video the algorithm has failed you
9gag brought me here
Paper fans, brooms, crashes, missing sleds, forgeting bibs, broken brakes..This sport is better than most of the movies, always action - always surprise
What if the driver missed lol
1:29
Woman: slow down! Hit the brakes!
Driver: YOU THINK I DONT KNOW THAT!!!
When your wingman leaves u at the club
He made it seem so dramatic just for the sledge to slow down by itself 😂😂😂😂
Italian 4 man bobsled, same commentator. He's seen what can happen without brakes, you can build a track with longer runoff, but no one knows how it will handle until a sled comes flying through
Well, on the bright side...
he is the *gold-medal winner*
in the *ONE-man* bobsled!!!
Cheer up, Mate!
dude that slip was brutal, tries so hard to stay up
Everyone in the comments are apparently now professional commentators who have been doing this for years
"Unbelievable misfortune".
After the broom, the invisible bib, the missed sled, the broken handbrake, and the paper fan, I'm starting to believe the winter olympics is all about misfortune.
This was BEAUTIFUL.
Someone at TH-cam really enjoys bobsledding and wants to share their passion with everyone else
The brake man was his father letting go of his child on their ride lessons.
Looks like a kid enjoying his ride while his mother is recording the ride
Legend has it he is still kneeling on the track to this day.
When the company started to lay off and 1 started to do the job of two
I wouldve been yelling WWHHEEEEEEEEE if i had to go alone
When you realise the guy operating the brakes ain’t there.......
The guy that fell, he still had a chance the get up and get back in to the vehicle, instead he stays down and then later takes a look on the vehicle, which stills not far from him. He gave up so easy.
We are a united community of people who continually watch bobsled mishaps... Im finally a part of something special....
I phucking love these videos man. Has a cozy vibe to it.
I don't know why I started getting these blooper videos, but I'm kinda enjoying it...( with of course the premise that no-one gets injured)
I have no idea why this was recommended to me but I enjoyed it
WHEN UR TEAMATE AFK
Omg I couldn't stop laughing when he just left him! 😂😂😂
Thank God they designed a long outrun.
"you often see a load problem"
Mate... that wasn't a load problem... this was just... slipping on slippery ice^^
I'm going to the next Winter Olympics. Does anyone have a step-ladder I could borrow. For...umm, standing on.
Commentator acting like he's watching Speed.
Idk how I ended up here but it's kinda interesting
This was by far the most interesting one
Never seen someone cry BEFORE they hit the ground like that before
No, no it started alright. Loneliest ride down until the nearly smash up at the end adrenaline.
Francisco has done considerably better since this race! He went from being a “goat” to becoming the
G. O. A. T.
Its like telling your friends when a trip is planned..." You guys carry on, I will try to join later' 😂😂😂
Germany had alot of problems with bobsledding.
actually it is the most succesful bobsleigh nation in history.
Orion D trottel
They r the best bobsleders in the world
No dude...
All other nations have a lot of trouble with German bobsledders.
So we had two separate people get hit by brooms, one run over a paper fan, someone miss their sled entirely, and this...
You had one job! - Winter Edition
You can go for a taxi ride. This is a really good experience! I never felt g force like this.
I had heard about the one-man bobsled from the comments on the other videos, and now I have seen it for myself.
Sled specialists i consulted agree, this was a perfect ride
"i've fallen and i can't get up!"
For everyone talking about the commentator freaking out there is not usually that much help to stop at the end. Go watch any of the other videos where there is a crash / issues with the brake at the end
Forgetting your teammate is worse than forgetting your bib.
He's like "damn this bro fucked up, gonna take a ride to vent a little"
What did he place
I keep seeing comments about some broom, what broom? I came to this video from a paper fan on the track, Italian bobsled without brakes, a woman missing her sled and then several crashes in Whistler 2016. I haven't seen anything about a broom lol.
There wouldn't have been this much drama had the commentator been a calm guy.
Finally a track with a reasonable run off at the end
it's not like the dude can't reach back....or is it?
And just like that, monobob was invented.
Dude sitting in seat was he thinks he won the match😄
when your teammate afk but comes back just after round start
Sounds like Sir Adrian Dangerous on his bicycle. "I have got no brakes!"
He still had to do the slide of shame after being disqualified
And now its an actual competition known as the Manobob!
Should be a 1 man bobsled event
Finishing ramp designed 100% perfectly I guess
Ironically, Francesco became the most successfull Bob Pilot in history during todays World Championship.. which also featured Mono-Bobs (for Women) for the first time.
Wow that was a huge crash...the sled stopped and he stepped out for a cup of hot cocoa...lol
Real life probs in world....
They both should b laughing and move on
I for some reason read the title as "Sportsmanship" and was waiting for something cool to happen 🤦♂
Was his time good?
When your mate won't go out with you for a bear.
I was wondering where the breakman was in the thumbnail.....
I think we need this now: one person bobsled. Luge and skeleton are cool, but this would be cooler. Oh, and side by side tracks with over/under portions to equalize length!
it exists! it's called monobob and you can probably find it on the IBSF youtube channel
Monobob is a thing! It's currently a women-only category (like there's only 4-man and no 4-woman bobsled), but I'd love to see a Men's Monobob (and on that note, a 4-women Bobsled)

At least no one was hurt. Equment good to go.. You train for so long and 1 little mistake takes you out. That is why it is called competition and only pros get to this leval. Regroup and try to do it again nxt time right.
I feel like I recognize the commentator from endurance racing (WEC etc), it doesn't happen to be John Hindaugh does it? Wouldn't be the first time, Jack Nicholls has commentated ski cross for instance.
Francesco Friedrich: racing monobob before it was cool
The guy looking back @ 0:19 😂😂😂
It's like his feet just decided to not work properly anymore.
How the absolute hell does one even get into bobsled. I’ve never even seen a bobsled track or met anyone whose done it.
Well, I know how to do it if you're jamaican and the sport doesn't exist in your country yet, and no one else believes in you. Thank you "Cool Runnings"! But more seriously I honestly have no idea. I guess you need to be in a country with a very cold winter?
Why not single bob races? At the end, even jet fighter pilots normally are alone.
Surely this cant be as difficult as they make it look.
A good capt. jumps the ship before it sinks
Just think: One Broom not only ruins a skeleton run, but the productivity and sleep schedules for thousands of chumps like us! 🤯
Never give on your dreams and visions you never about next minute
Turns out the extra weight from the sharpie ink on the brake mans calves threw his balance off
No brakes?? No problem. Here’s a wall of ice!
I bet he still had fun though
