Barbers when the quarantine is over 😂
😂
LOL so underrated
😂😂😂
I can't believe this is a thing
Kermit The Frog I have so many questions. Like do they sedate the sheep so they don’t wiggle?
The faster and more accurate you sheer the more farmers want you so the more money you make
@@Dr_Mantis_Toboggan once a sheep is on its back its pritty much stuck so it just lays there. As long as your fast it wont try get up
Jacinta Anderson lol well thank you!
Better than the Air Guitar Championship.
I like how the sheep goes from "whoa wtf dude?" to "well I guess this is my life now"
They look like they are into ngl lol
free haircut they said, it'll be alright they said
Ik this doesn't hurt the sheep but dang
I’ve officially gone too deep into the TH-cam rabbit hole. I was radicalized into sheep shearing 😱😱😱
Me too and it's almost midnight
It's 10:30 on a Wednesday night and I'm watching videos of sheep being sheered in a competition
Chris Dauria hey it's Tuesday night at 8 PM for me so ur not the only one
Chris Dauria hey it’s a Thursday at 2am
Chris Dauria watching this on a Wednesday night too 😂😂😂😂
Monday morning 00:54 here😁😁😁😁
it's 10:30 on a Thursday night for me.
Humans will make a sport of anything.
Christine Ward I agree with you there. Even piling cups is a sport. Go figure.
You're totally right! I'm a competitive dung beetle counter!
Allie Champagne why is that a thing😂😂
Smack the fly
In all fairness, it’s fun to watch lol.
how the fuck did I end up here!? loool
thatweird gui I was just thinking the same thing😂
thatweird gui lol
LMAO, youtube suggestions taking you to crazy places.
I ended up while doing some research if wool was acceptable regarding animal welfare etc.
Same
" I need to go to sleep, Oh whats this ? World Machine Shearing Finals..... " Dame you youtube!
Ha!
the commentators are really trying hard to make it sound interesting.
Not.doing so.good tho lol
I enjoyed listening to them. It’s a different accent; one that I’m not used to
These are amazing athletes.
Have you ever seen a Tetris championship?
This was shear madness!
Lol sheep are so cooperative
Lmao
Kako Onikumo Ekun they got to be petrified or sedated, truthfully this stinks, lambs treated so roughly.
@@gaelcrane8008 you think sheeps just wanna be full of wool and not even be able to see anything? Show proof of that happening.
Kako Onikumo Ekun I suppose as much any other animal upside down
Flora Dedaj They just mean that they’re doing it so fast
I can’t believe I watched the whole thing...😂😂😂👍
We shear sheep as part of our business, and I can tell you for a FACT, sometimes the sheep get nicked. It is unavoidable. When we first started shearing, I felt AWFUL anytime I nicked one. But they heal up fine in a week or two, with a little bit of antiseptic spray. The shearing machine has two blades, the "comb" and the "cutter". A really, really good sheep shearer can get about 10-15 one year fleeces out of a cutter. Someone who is shearing quickly, or who is less experienced will dull the cutter much faster, and maybe get 5 sheep out of a blade. When the cutter starts to go dull, it will snag skin and nick them. The combs that are used on the machines have anywhere from 9 to 20 "teeth". The more teeth they have, the less they bite into the wool at once. It looks like these guys are all using 9 tooth combs, which means they are using the combs with the biggest gaps and will cut a sheep faster than any other comb, because the wider gap between the teeth of the comb means that more skin can be snatched up into the cutter. However, with the speed that they need in this competition, it would be dumb for them to use one of the combs with more teeth. I am flat out amazed at how little they actually cut the sheep, at those speeds, with those combs. That takes real talent and skill. I attempted to use a 9 tooth comb on one of our personal sheep once, just to see how it worked, and I cut the poor girl 3 times before I ever got done with the belly. I said NOPE, recognized that I was not skilled enough to use the 9 tooth comb, and it hasnt been used since. I could probably use it now, because this was several years ago, but i do just fine using a 13 tooth comb. I dont have to shear a sheep in 45 seconds.
Hopefully that explains to everyone what is actually going on here, while people are screaming about how cruel it is and how "bad" they are cutting them.
Karime Bryant THANK you.
well said!
Thank you,this is the comment that everyone should read!
Random people,think shearing is like taking a haircut. Im sure none of them have seen an amateur cutting the tendon of the back leg while shearing.Those pros are gentle as a tickle from a feather.
Karime Bryant yah i think the sheep are going to be fine, plus people need to accept that farm animals are farm animals, they wouldn't exist without our economies and human labor and society. It is what it is.
Really appreciated reading this! Very interesting stuff!
My husband works 12 hours a night at the NICU saving babies from legit death so I can sit here drinking wine and watching sheep shearing competitions.
Julie Priest you have found yourself a one of a kind husband 👍🏼
Get a job. Leech.
__ you carried so much hatred for this comment that was made a year ago that you still felt it relevant to insult them
@@esdeath5301 No hatred. I just find it funny that someone who is unemployed doesn't feel guilty that her husband works 12 hour shifts and she feels the need to brag that her husband financially supports her. Sounds like she's a real winner.
@@__1201 it came across pretty self deprecating to me. she's probably well aware of how it sounds
Am I the only one who thinks sheep shearing is quite interesting?? 🤔
Maybe I'm weird 😂😅😅😂😂
Good job guys,not everyone can be this good,its all about farm work ...
I'm on a sheep shearing marathon
I was signed up to become a certified shearer. Broke my leg and couldn’t go. Wish I had
Maybe 😆
Mee too
This is an accurate depiction of my neighborhood barber shop
The winner, if anyone cares, 1.John Kirkpatrick (New Zealand) 17min 22.079sec, 61.554pts, 2. Gavin Mutch (Scotland) 16min 56.139sec, 62.907pts, 3. Nathan Stratford (New Zealand) 18min 3.357sec, 63.818pts, 4. Ivan Scott (Ireland) 18min 20.599sec, 66.53pts, 5. Hamish Mitchell (Scotland) 16min 50.75sec, 67.688pts, 6. Jack Robinson (Northern Ireland) 19min 22.71sec, 70.986pts,
Cheers, was wondering who won. About right too from the bits we saw. 1st scottish dude was a bit rougher than Mutch
All sheep were confused what was happening to 1 minute of their lives.
2020 is a strange year, learned a lot and seen so many weird and exciting videos. This one is among my favorites along with horse shoeing.
As a guy born and raised in Brooklyn NY, I LOVED THIS!
I'm just some guy working on IT and life sciences. Landed here randomly. And I'm flipping baffled. Impressive !
I didn't even know that this was a sport. Awesome!!! New fan!!
"He is Pinking them out really fast" . LOLLLL
The shear speed of these people
To all you city folk, you should go watch these guys on the job for real in NZ. They sweat all day and the back aches for the first 2 days, but they keep on going regardless. These guys are the bomb. A good shearer is well worth watching.
_"They sweat all day and the back aches for the first 2 days, but they keep on going regardless"_
So what?
@@theovanrossum8652 You wanna give it a go then?? Few jobs out there that are as tough. But dont let me hold ya back.
@@timsewell8550
No, I don't want to give it a go and it doesn't matter how "tough" it is. I just don't abuse animals period.
@@theovanrossum8652 hahaha you idiot. It would be abuse to leave the wool on and let it grow beyond control. Sort it out chap. Don't go making comment when you have no idea.
@@timsewell8550
Name calling? First grow up before you even talk to me.
Me at 11pm: One more video and I'll go to sleep
Me at 3am:
"Ayee my barber is kinda rough here, how bout yours there mate ?"
Its 1:54 am and I'm watching sheep shearing!
Sheep: just a the ol shaving
Gets grabbed out of the gate
Sheep: holy shit that was fast
What an unexpectedly interesting event, watched the whole thing with ease!
Me tree, I've watched many of this videos too.
this is what all is about! very meaningful. I am from Mongolia btw.
This is the meaning of life to you??
Will totally make your day Steppe

This competition deserves an Olympic event.. 😂
Those saying poor sheep and thats so cruel, think logically. The sheep is laying against their leg its judt their feet that are moved infront or behind the sheerer to maneuver better. Also it takes like 1min to sheer a sheep and its only done twice a year. Cuts and nicks happen but a good sheerer wont cut the sheep at all thats why they have contests to prove they are a good sheerer and take care of the sheep so more farmers will hire them.
Its not cruel as it is rushed. There not going to go this fast at all times and even with this the sheep are just uncomfortable not hurt. The fact that they can go this fast proves they know what there doing. And id rather some sheep sheering than other forms of actual animal abuse.
they are sedated
@@antipetaassociation4279 No they arent. My family are farmers. The sheep are perfectly happy to just lay there.
I find this really funny.. The way they r man handling the sheep in the beginning.. The way the sheep just submit .. The announcers talking like its a horse race.. Wtf am i even watching hahahaha
I am actually laughing out loud while watching this shit
Me too 😂
These sheep are chill and relaxed. Makes me want to get a Swedish massage.
I often wonder how the living hell I ended up here. This is one of those videos that make me wonder
Ah, the internet. It truly is glorious.
I don't know how I got here 🤣
This is how desperate I am for sports.
I laughed, I cried, I held my sweater.
Those are being very good girls
New Zealand and Ireland are definitely gentlest with their sheep. Seeing as shearing can be just as much an ordeal for sheep, I’m glad there are minimal to no nicks to sheep skin. #GreatJobGuys. 🌟
This is God's favourite sport. I bet He loves watching this with nice cold beer....... Or red wine:)
I feel like a lot of people commenting have no idea how difficult sheep shearing is. Probably the hardest manual labour job across Aus and NZ
Sheep’s be like why you rushin bruh Just take your time
This is back pain all over after they done
Just peelin' the boys out there.
This is still so much better than the wnba so thanks for the person who linked me this
Planet Earth is weird
Aeternuss yea look at your own avatar.
Said the person with the avatar of a disable cat
Aeternuss
Lmao
me: getting ready to skip ahead and hears "from scotland..."
also me: ok hold on now
Can you imagine the farmer was like you want to shear my sheep for free and I dont have to touch a one... I'm in!
Love this!
This is crazy impressive most people don’t know but it takes normal around 15 minutes to shear a sheep and to fight them to get their legs in the right place crazy
“He’s done well for his country Ivan Scott they must be so proud of him back in the Uk” Ireland is Not in the Uk
Wow, they're not only super-fast but really accurate too! They could easily cut the sheep badly if they didn't know exactly what they're doing, I would think?
Yes they're very very skilled
Very exciting!! Would like to have seen the award ceremony!!
2021 and I'm just knowing that this is a real thing
Bro for real..
People are taking this so sheariously..
Wonder what training is like...
@@shauncry1917 it’s a job so they do it everyday and get paid
@@willsidebottom9833 your top notch thanks man
@@shauncry1917 hahah now worries mate I’m learning myself actaully
@@willsidebottom9833 it takes a lot of years of fighting to begin gettin paid
9:23 this part is so satisfying idkk
Strangely satisfying when done professionally.
Just found out that sheep shearing is a sport apparently and there’s tons of fans! There’s more people there than there is at Triple A sport games
I was watching runescape pking vids and now I am here 2:15 am
Lol used to play rs too. 2.23am hwre lol
Also used to shear sheeps in runescape like 15years ago lol
I love watching shearing ,oddly satisfy
watching at 4am in the morning for no reason.
*"Give me a fucking minute"* -Sheep
I feel like I've finally reached the End of TH-cam.
This is one of the reasons why aliens won't show themselves to us because they know we gonna fuck them up.
This is how barber does when queue is long enough 😂
This is the best thing I could have found at 2.41 in the morning.
if i was one of those sheeps i would go on yelp right now and give them a 1 star for customer service
Don't know bro those sheeps look pretty happy
Of the sheep,was unhappy it would be kicking and baaing, I can shear a sheep and if you put them in comfortable position they’re fine
Wow there's a competition for just about everything huh?
“One point deducted from the red corner, eye gouging...” “Ok lets have a clean fight!”
Thats awesome! Fast times :D
The sheep will be like: take it easy man you're screwing it all up and at the end it will be like: wut da fuck?! that's not the hair cut i asked for!!!
Friend:“What are you doing”
Me: “watching a sheep shearing competition”
Friend: 😳 ok
“
I like this ☺
True athletes! Hi from Texas!
حياك من دبي اتمنئ رد
this is so satisfying lol
People comment about animal cruelty as if these sheep were skinned alive
Julius Bernotas funny lol
Julius Bernotas haha
Julius Bernotas i swear dude, these guys are doing these animals a favour and saving the farmers some time.
nothing against shearing sheep, I just don’t see why it needs to be a contest. it’s obviously stressful for the animal especially with all the commotion, and the shearer is under major pressure. Just increases the likelihood of a bad nick.
The first race on wheels was invented only 3 minutes after the invention of the wheel.
This is funny 😂😂like how do they practice 😂do they get up at 6am just to shear a sheep ?😂they even got entrance music lol ong this is just so funny to me 😂😂
would love to see this competition on human heads and facial hair lololololol itd be the most hilarious thing in human history
Knock yourself out...
th-cam.com/video/5a_D3tdbTAU/w-d-xo.html
Who won?? WTF
Ohhh...this my first time ever watching something like this ?? Is this some kind a sport??
It’s a profession thats tuned into a competition, shearing is like running a marathon everyday day for five days straight
Wednesday night and I am watching this competition 😊 these commentators though😂
The folly of modern society: "OMG the sheep have cuts on their hide!"
Meanwhile, in Syria....
OMG animals are abused all over the world so let’s just not care about any of them!!
Hammerschlägen M damn you got me good
What exactly is happening to sheep’s in Syria then ?
Enough internet for today.
This is so hype
This is real sport: competition in real work. Let’s also not ignore the ladies who were collecting the wool - they were hustling as well.
The blondie has the loveliest behind.
@ 20:06 He's half a sheep behind
This is how my mom made my haircut when I was a kid
Ngl I watched 10 minutes engaged without even noticing I was watching a fucking sheep shearing competition
I found this so funny to be a sport! fast
Ok let me just say. Some of the people shearing did a very good job. It was clean. There was no sign of struggle from the sheep. Overall nice job, but some of these people. They shear terribly. You can see cuts on some of the sheep. They should not be cut at any part of the shearing process. One has cut on its face, and the sheep were struggling. Usually in transition from each position they don't seem to mind at all. Some of these sheep jerk and they're being moved. That's not how a normal sheep being sheared acts. You can also see the the sheep get stabbed with shears multiple times. Stabbing them shouldn't be a part of this process either. That's all I'm saying. I get that I can't stop this. I can respect some people in this competition, but some of them... wow
They get marked down when they cut the sheep
wow from the philippines
This takes the cake 🎂
I don't know how to feel about this
Shave and a hair cut , two bits !!
Hello! From Cambodia 🇰🇭 🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🥰
