cope these guy have low lean mass and also every one on the video height is guarantee to start with 5'. regardless i like gymnastic because i stop carring whether or not something is comsidered manly or not and i am now just be myself and pursue my interest no matter what!
102 (in time 3:30 - 4:16) is Alois Hudec from Czechoslovakia, this is his Gold Medal Performance (9.8pt) on 11th August 1936 at Olympics in Berlin, it's not a slow motion, he hold all positions more then 2 times then necessary because it was his last exhibition and Nazi got lower marks to Slavic people, so he went there ready to show them something extraordinary... That's why Leni had to put it into the movie...
When I first saw this, I wondered if Riefenstahl had slowed the camera speed but in the rings routine, the people walking in the stands in the background seem to be walking at pretty much a normal speed. Very impressive rings routine. Back then, the strength positions were held for a longer period of time than now. Can't tell if 102 did a full butterfly to start the routine.
dorothy tai Especially rings, pommel, and parallel bars. I'd love to see the return of the one arm handstand on parallel bars! 102 on rings certainly doesn't look like what you would expect of a gymnastics routine from 80 years ago.
Well I'm usually called optimistic but for the sake of sports I have to say that the "progress" of skills in sports is more and more full of excess. The main problem is that the more top atlhetes are skilled, the less they have different styles, flaws and assetts, so with decades you feel more and more watching clones. Also, the daily life devotion, pressure and competition became unhealthy for atlhetes psychology in many sports. I guess it will sound even more inhuman in 70 years. The only cons I see is that as you said we can see amazing things and what our organism can do after tryharding something. I'd love proffessional sport become again healthy, blooming and balanced but I don't know how since it's industrialized like almost everything in this massive society. Sometimes I wonder if I shouldn't stop watching pros to get less and less used to amazing skills then being able to enjoy amateur again. Amateur sports are full of surprise, more different styles between atlhetes, more different genetics. We can contemple there the versatility of humans, we're oftenly surprised by some atlhetes, we always can dream and expect the next one will be very different or amazing, sounds exciting and healthy :)
If the world is still around in 70 years, gymnastics won't have changed much... certainly unlikely for the better. They've gotten worse in the last 30 years alone.
actually, it is not. #102 is Alois Hudec from czechoslovakia. Member of lower rase (at least for germans before WW2) and referees did everything to shorten his points in every other disciplines which he attended. So he held all the exercises (or figures or as its called) double time than says the rules
did you see how packed the stadium was? i'm so glad gymnastics of my day was so much more advanced. can you imagine what will be required of gymnasts in 20 years? wow.
Мне 70 .Начинали ( и еще 3-5 лет) на открытом воздухе( стадионы,площадки,опил,алебастр для ладоней..) Маты - роскошь( для сборной) Народ собирался - любовался .1966/67
yay, they handstand like me :D surely bending the back like that though makes it so much harder to hold on the rings? the the ring sequence is slowed down, you can see by looking at the straps when they go slack. the floor routines were... interesting. a lot better to train outside i think :)
i dont know look at the scenes in "slow motion" where crowd is behind. people are moving normally. if it is like this then those guys were much stronger that today gymnasts? just my opinion i dont claim thats true
@@Alvin_Vivian in most cases yes. Doing a trick in slow motion needs quite a lot more strength and balance, so not only the main muscle groups have to work harder but also the underlaying muscles. Just try a handstand press quickly and slowly and youll notice the difference.
Lolwa Allunicorn Yeah I got the joke lol... I didn't think you were a "hater" (and even if you were I wouldn't care :). I'm actually on YT all the time watching videos. I just don't upload stuff anymore. So not sure it's worth subscribing haha... Thx for stopping by!
I'm just writing this here because I have no idea how soon the Rapture will happen: repent! Turn to Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins while you still can. The end of the world as we know it is fast coming closer.
102!!! Give him the gold! That inverted cross to iron cross is so badass even by today's standards.
he had gold :) Alois Hudec, look him up
True the rings will never not be hard. Super impressive!
This has got to be one of the manliest youtube videos ever.

these guys are so respectful! doing routines like that with that kind of apparals, with no protections and no grips.. they were so brave

OMFG that's my bday!!! August 11!!!!
Lord of the rings.
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting :) inspirational
Why are you spreading false information? At 4:21 you can CLEARLY see it’s slow motion and the people in the background walk in slow motion too
Simon48 Read what he wrote instead of talking
Very interesting to see the changes and where it has evolved from. I was really impressed with these gymnasts.
Calisthenics ever will be the most beauty gymnastics category for men. Yes, I really believe that.
Interesting how apparently straight arms were not a requirement back then.
these day these guy would disqualified for too much bent arms
It was but they just couldn't do it
Wow the floor routines had alot of yoga poses back then.
It also looks like what they have you doing in wrestling except with less flips.
This is absolutely incredible, they are doing it with such ease and make it look so smooth!
Ring routines back then were still BA
the sport was completely different because most of gymnastics was held outside. The technique and form is totally different.
What kind of BS is that
That was classic!

it seems men's routines didn't change as much as women's..

More tumbling but otherwise lot of it is still to show strength.
It's cool how they did it outdoors back then, it would be cool it they did that now days.
There are outside events for gymnastics, but it's rare
Those dudes are ripped.
that was awesome, we have come a long way in 70 years! imagine what they will be doing in another 70 :)

That guy with 102 in 3:27 is Czechoslovakian Alois Hudec who pissed of Hitler because he defeated Germans and won olympic gold by this performace
cool video, thanks for posting it.
most hardcore (and similar to today) are the rings
actually, it is not. #102 is Alois Hudec from czechoslovakia.

Cosi virile, pulito ed elegante, magnifici. E che inquadrature. Meno è meglio, senza dubbio, almeno quando c'è lo stile.
吊り輪の102番の選手、素手であれだけできるのはこの時代で凄い。
Number 102, rings, Alois Hudec🥇🇨🇿❤️
did you see how packed the stadium was? i'm so glad gymnastics of my day was so much more advanced. can you imagine what will be required of gymnasts in 20 years? wow.
damn how do you feel about gymnastics now lol, only 4 years to go
Really cool.

Was some of this footage used in the Rammstein Stripped video? I think it was.
Some of this is quite impressive, even by today’s standards.
except 4:01 - 4:16
the inverted down to cross straight body was sick!
yay, they handstand like me :D surely bending the back like that though makes it so much harder to hold on the rings?
the the ring sequence is slowed down, you can see by looking at the straps when they go slack.
the floor routines were... interesting.
a lot better to train outside i think :)
wow they had a big crowd there for gymnastics
Yeah
Gimmastic starts in 1810 and by 1860 was like football today in sweden holand germany uk france annnnnnd later go to make olimpics in 1890 and nexts
amazing
It is look like a bit of slow pace of modern gymnastics , or slow motion maybe 😄. Nevertheless it is still incredible
Seriously, has the pommel horse changed all that much?
Oldy but goldy
I think that I just tore my bicep watching guy #102
😂😂 I tore my triceps. Watching insane routines is a dangerous sport...
Strong abd talented Gymnast...🎉
i dont know look at the scenes in "slow motion" where crowd is behind. people are moving normally. if it is like this then those guys were much stronger that today gymnasts? just my opinion i dont claim thats true
So you're stronger if you move slower?
@@Alvin_Vivian in most cases yes. Doing a trick in slow motion needs quite a lot more strength and balance, so not only the main muscle groups have to work harder but also the underlaying muscles. Just try a handstand press quickly and slowly and youll notice the difference.
they had slow motion in 1936? damn
but some of them must be in slow motion especially where those guys are jumping or swinging
This resembles the more gymnastics we see today. Number 102 you are a bad mamma jammer!
WOW... I say bring back the one armed handstand on pbars! lol. All up I reckon that was level 2 floor and at most, level 6 for everything else.
The floor wasn’t sprung. It was outside. If he fell he would seriously hurt himself.
a lot of yoga poses on the floor routine
Is the floor concrete? No wonder they couldn't do much tumbling.
No is earth
Gravity defyinh gymnast♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Is this in super slow motion?
Where did you get this footage???
my warmup
i cant believe its outside!
lol ;]
Are they doing on ground
his floor looked like he was just stretching haha
😮
why it so slow
yeah i know.. but everything starts from something ;)
@SuperNonhuman it's not that old
Who came here from the cheernastics 2
HelloKittyFanBaeLover me
I wonder if those gymnast still alive 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Little Kitty they would have to be 100+ years old by now, so probably not.
Nevertheless, it is so beautiful to have watched what they worked so hard for and left for us to admire. so much respect.
lol I don't think Leni Riefenstahl would mind... but pls don't tell her just in case haha
sigh...those were the golden days before corporate sponsorship, performance enhancing drugs and celebrity media ruined sport
straight white anglo-saxon protestant man bro gymnastics was gay af
How was it better back then? Low difficulty is better? Or dangerous form? Gymnastics just became extremely difficult sport that requires perfection
and outside with no spring mats, they should it like the old days again. Doubt these kids can take it though :-)
giants with no grips are awesomes
We use to call them wicks.
That guy at 3:55 o.O
By that time Bruce Lee had not yet reached his popularity and as a result people were more clumsy overall
床、鞍馬のレベルは思ってたより低かった。つり輪に上手い人いたなw
lol the pommel circles have no stretch at all
iron men on the rings
Hudec to byl pan gymnasta ✌️
床､思いっきりラジオ体操じゃんwww
当時は屋外だったのか。
Do u know what else is old ❓ the answer is : ur video
You're right!
nanquan491 oh ur still alive hi there I’m not a hater I was just joking and I subscribe
Lolwa Allunicorn Yeah I got the joke lol... I didn't think you were a "hater" (and even if you were I wouldn't care :). I'm actually on YT all the time watching videos. I just don't upload stuff anymore. So not sure it's worth subscribing haha... Thx for stopping by!
Imagine if Simone Biles where to compete in the floor routines.
haha yeah... gymnastics has advanced so much since then.
Reckturnen noch ohne Flugelemente...
Grips anyone?
We use to call them wicks.
created in the bronx
lol yeah it does doesn't it... :D
nattyornot brought me here
Women?! Ladies?!
jeniyahl05 their gymnastics was only slowly swinging their arms around up until the 50s only men were allowed to tumble
Русские гимнасты тут?)
Может быть, кто знает...
no disrespect to you being gay, but this is hardly the place to be making these kind of comments.
In that case I hope there isn't a BW film out there somewhere of her giving you a....
🍌 🔙
LOL
BS!!!!!!!!!
haha.. well you know how she's good at making propaganda movies... who knows how you will come out lol
I hate the modern gymnast, they focus on speed
