yes but to be fair Nick did line up the top of Ronaldo's head at the highest point of the jump with the BOTTOM edge of the soccer ball. So Ronaldo could definitely touch this hanging ball (barely), but not hit it forward/score it.
I'm sure he's okay with it because the dude jumping was putting on a show for everyone there. He wanted him to get it done. Easy $100. I wouldn't be complaining.
Its insane that Ronaldo did that into a match, with a ball moving at quite the high speed and also managed to control it and direct it towards the goal
True but this ball is higher than the one in game. They have the bottom aligned with how high he went to make it simple for the challenge. Also fairly sure even the number they used it a little to high
The ball isn't this height in game. This was his best EVER and it was measured to the tip of his hair, not his head. Ronaldo himself, even if he was warmed up and in his prime, wouldn't be able to complete this challenge without a beanie
@@edenarchive4150 dude you need some power because you're changing the ball's direction and it comes fast as you can see in the beginning of the video.

i mean it terms of vertical and jump height they aren't, which is what he meant. basketball players have the most vertical and height, thats why he said that. ofc football players are athletic tho
@@hopsmax2827 - Believe it or not, NFL wide receivers can jump higher than nearly all NBA players. Look up the NFL combine numbers vs NBA combine numbers.
what they don't realize is how much harder it is for Ronaldo. Imagine a ball flying towards you at about 80-90km/hour , then defenders fighting you off, trying to outbalance or push you over when jumping.
Nick haven’t watched you in ages man but was thinking of you today and now you upload! Was wondering how are you getting on with your 500 dead 5 minute mile challenge
Hey Nick, big brazilian fan here. Love your videos so much, specially these ones that doesnt envolve wheights or run. Can you do something with swimmings? BEst regards from Brazil
The fact that Cristiano Ronaldo is 2 inches shorter than that guy, and he doesn’t have to wear anything on his head to hit the ball right in the center and direct it into a football goal with a 6ft or taller goalie guarding the goal and still make it in is FREAKING INSANE!!🔥👏🏻 that’s why he’s the most Insane athlete ever! Period.
Yo nick love your videos! I literally binged watched all your videos on this channel and nick stmmonds too. Bith channells i have watched literally every video in the last 2years and longer. When you coming close to Pennsylvania?
What makes Cristiano's header so special is not just the pure vertical factor (which probably could be achieved no sweat by several basketball players), but the fact that his jumping technique makes him "float" on air for a split second which helps him score those crazy headers. That's no bull, it's a scientific fact, it was researched on the documentary "Ronaldo to the Limit".
@@bipolarbear91 go watch the source material I am providing, it's based on an academic research made with the highest technology of that time. You can talk all the $h¡t you want about it, the research has been done, if you don't want to look it up that's your comfy ignorance.
@@bipolarbear91 If your arms &/or legs are up, and then you push them down at the apex, your center of gravity will follow the necessarily ballistic trajectory back down while your head/body remain momentarily at height. Not a physicist, but have always looked at the physical world around me with this lens, and took several semesters of physics in college.
What's impressive is that Ronaldo is 2 inches shorter, used shoes that give less height adventage than the one in the video and managed to hit the ball at the middle section at that height. That's mad. Btw respect for the last dude! 👏
to your last point, 2.93m was the highest point of Ronaldo's head, so the lowest part of the ball, which is also 2.93m, is the point where Ronaldo touched his head.
Great video Nick. I was wondering if you can make a video on testerone levels lowering with endurance sports since you trained hard and competed at the Olympics. And like your perspective of and ways maybe we can limit the effects of impacting us. Thanks.
The thing is although Ronaldo is a crazy athlete he is also utilizing the collision with the defender to help his jump, causing a sort of trampoline effet
Yeah, this is definitely too high for an actual header, but they also weren't doing a header, just trying to graze the ball. Even so, it's likely still higher than he jumped, but it made for an exciting video so it all worked out
Yeah, but what Ronaldo did was even more difficult. He had to get to the ball, watch it's trajectory, jump at just the right time, and somehow head it into the net.
The ball needs to be hit with near forehead for actual scoring the ball to the net. That means the jumps has to be higher than the Nicks challenge height. Which will be dam difficult to achieve. Ronaldo’s jump is a super human jump. 👍
Crazy how athletic Ronaldo is. He is the epitome of IT PAYS TO BE FIT!!!
that shoes rent cost $100..hahahahah
Ronaldo is 6 2
Ohh you know
@@K.kun9pretty sure he is 6’0
@@bruhmcchaddeus413 nope hes 6 2
Yes he is worth billions of dollars
What's even more crazy is that Ronaldo, touches the ball in centre, also directs it into the goal. All in one chance. Nothing but Peak Atlethism.
He hanged the ball up to the max height of where Ronaldos tip of his head was. The ball wasn't actually at this height when Ronaldo hit the ball.
Yes sir 💯
Ronaldo jumps 3.2m 16 feet
@@Theegarciabrotherslmfao💀💀 no way you believe that
@@zzirfamo24I don’t believe that because he can actually jump 100ft
Probably the hardest challenge we've ever seen in Nick's videos
He ain’t trying to pay no one out 😂
And it’s not really “it pays to be fit”, rather “it pays to be tall”
ronaldo or messi/messi/😅
Definitely the hardest
Short king malding ☠️, ppl just under 6ft can do this too is just rare @@Golden-lviv
shoe guy was smart to ask for some lol
yea 😂
Sharing is caring. Team work makes the dream work.
I mean he should it was his shoes to be able to get that jump done
He was a king
Shoe guy. Plain and simple. Love it 😅
Nick would need a 45 inch vertical to hit the ball! Even ronaldo who is 6'2 would need about a 40 inch vert to hit it, absolute nuts athleticism.
Not only athleticism, but coordination and split second reaction. Remember, the ball is kicked from far away, and moving away from his direction.
Ronaldo is actually around 6 foot which makes it even more impressive
And the world record is at 49.92 inches
@@ceo36476’2 188cm
He hit it with a beanie so he basically didn’t hit but they had to give it to someone and Ronaldo would
One of my favorite challenges to watch people try and then fail lol
Y is that
Short people getting talked into it- there’s gotta be a psychology lesson here
Yeah Ik right, especially the ladies 😂😂😂. But tbf I don’t think they actually thought they could do it. They just wanted to be in the video probably
When Ronaldo did that he was on an angle and just jumper high enough to head the ball correctly... So just imagine his actual vertical 😅
He did a doc iirc called tested to the limit where they tested his vertical and a load of other stuff
yes but to be fair Nick did line up the top of Ronaldo's head at the highest point of the jump with the BOTTOM edge of the soccer ball. So Ronaldo could definitely touch this hanging ball (barely), but not hit it forward/score it.
he was also on adrenaline so if he tried to do it now he would probably not get it
@@fujisan038841.7 inches. Pretty damn crazy for a soccer player
yes. In Ronaldos case the ball was @ ~2,6m@@utubesignupblows
The 6.7 guy barely left the ground 😂
Bcause he is heavy LOL
Dude got hustled in the end for using his shoes 😂😂😂
He shouldn't have to have split half half , the dude still did all the work. $100 is fine
I was gonna say damn people are so greedy and realized these are broke college kids. dude gotta hustle in that stage of life @@saidonepudi8700
I'm sure he's okay with it because the dude jumping was putting on a show for everyone there. He wanted him to get it done. Easy $100. I wouldn't be complaining.
After so many people not getting even close... that was super thrilling how the last guy improves after a few attempts. Super exciting video 🙏🏽👍
Nick never disappoints!!!
I remember when Nick did public challenges with no reward. 😂 you’ve come a long way. 👏
Its insane that Ronaldo did that into a match, with a ball moving at quite the high speed and also managed to control it and direct it towards the goal
From this video we all know how insane ronaldo is 😱
It's crazy considering he most often heads the ball square on his forward, so he's not just touching it, he's connecting with coordinated power.
True but this ball is higher than the one in game. They have the bottom aligned with how high he went to make it simple for the challenge. Also fairly sure even the number they used it a little to high
Ronaldo is insane dont get me wrong, but when heading a ball in a match you can use leverage another player, u can see him do it a bit when he scored
The ball isn't this height in game. This was his best EVER and it was measured to the tip of his hair, not his head. Ronaldo himself, even if he was warmed up and in his prime, wouldn't be able to complete this challenge without a beanie
The ball is moving and it bounces. He needs exactly zero power to direct it into the goal.
All he has to do is be in its path.
@@edenarchive4150 dude you need some power because you're changing the ball's direction and it comes fast as you can see in the beginning of the video.
If you've researched on vertical jump you know hitting 9'6 is RUTHLESS without being warmed up
The thing is that he headered it and scored!
Imagine! Doing this midgame and scoring. Insane!
yes but to be fair Nick did line up the top of Ronaldo's head at the highest point of the jump with the BOTTOM edge of the soccer ball. So Ronaldo could definitely touch this hanging ball (barely), but not hit it forward/score it.
@@utubesignupblows true
Yeah the timing, pressure ( not much against sampdoria but still ), power generated etc.
@@utubesignupblowsthe ball here also isn’t moving it makes it easier for Ronaldo to score

The coolest thing about this video was watching the crowd build in the background.
2:41 brodie is 6’7 for nothing 😭
The height means nothing if you're not athletic
Because he is not 6'7 he is around 6'4
To get the ladies atleast 😅

Props to the guy who hit the ball that’s talented
Definitely a challenge that needs repeating at another location. Anyone can try.. Lots of fun.. 👍

"Mr. Beast's fans: 'We might become millionaires!' Mr. Cheap's fans: 'We might become slightly less broke!'"

His highest vertical ever being 42 inches in an angle is quite impressive. He could do consistent 40 inches

The bottom of the ball was hung at the level that the top of the soccer players head reached.

Also jumping on grass is harder than tarmac. Probably lose couple inches.

The greatest athlete of all time
Doing it on grass must be even harder. I don't like Ronaldo at all, but this is damn impressive.

Finally with the goat 🐐 challenge
It's not Soccer 😂 , it's Football in whole world 🌍
man your videos is getting batter and batter i love all of them keep it up
Asking her to jump with platforms is dangerous lol

Google says that Ronaldo has a 41.7 inch vertical. That's approaching Michael Jordan territory.

@@harneybarney8156but don’t forget that Ronaldo is jumping off squishy turf with hard cleats, not off a hard court with bouncy trainers.
He hit the ball as he was going down. That’s how high he jumped.

Wait until people find out that Sotomayor's *center of gravity* peaked at 8-8 during his WR high jump...

Another great vidio🔥
Rocking the beard,and it looks great!
I love the ending 💯🔥💪🏼
How on earth was Ronaldo able to do that? He really is a goat
Your my hero bro I have thought of you during my track/XC races and I won all of them
Nick just wanted to rizz Olivia 😂😂😂
That's why Ronaldo is not human😊
No damn way Ronaldo jumped that high for a header
Unless he hit the ball with the very top of his head, I think Nick set it a little too high.
I think he did however the ball was a bit lower and he hit it on the way down. I think he set it at the peak of his vertical.
Yep watch his game against Man U.
There is even a header taller than that for Ronaldo which is 2.97m
It pays to wear shoes. Keep that in mind while getting fit!! 😂
Nick symmonds you are the 📍GOAT📍 of youtube
If Ronaldo Runs Like That For Jump It Will Bw 3M or More😂 But This Guy Puts Hes Hat more Up😂
you gotta leap from one foot some distance ahead to time it right. Two footed from right underneath will never get you that high
My guy looking fresh with the beard
TH-cam needs The Bison, miss you man
Damn, I wonder if that guy plays any sports or is he just one of those guys that trains to jump high.
If he trains to jump high, he would actually be jumping higher than that.
Ah yes, the champion is back!
That 6'7" guy was a disaster 😂, how u the closest to the ball yet the furthest away 😂
Bro literally felt the need to introduce the G.O.A.T football player to his audience...
Just GOAT 🐐 things by ronaldo
This is one best challenge related to football ⚽⚽
7:51 He was the best one
😂
I would of loved to try this!! I’m all for it
Bro defy gravity for a second.
The real question is why there’s so many tall dudes on Oregon campus. Got that dutch action going in Eugene huh
Whoever calculated that Ronaldo jump must have been way off. There’s no way it was this high lmao
Ronaldo hit the ball as he was starting to come down. That’s how high he jumped. He even dips his head lower to meet the ball perfectly.
Ronaldo jump with 1 leg crazy
Soccer❌️
Football✅️
Football is most famous sport and first sport to ever exist
Rolando did this without stretching. Imagine how difficult it is without stretching.
Lmao, you think a professional soccer player doesn't stretch before games?
Love the crowd cheering for the man
I’ve done research into how high Ronlado can get his head and he can get his head to 263cm or 8’7 no where near 9’7
agreed , I dont think the ball bottom was at 9ft7 , i think it was the ball top

His highest jump was against Man united which was 293cm !
You can just Google it and will show up don't know how did you do your research.
Man the disrespect that 400m runner showed towards Nick lol
I’m a simple man
I see Nick Symmonds post a new video. I click the video
basketball rim is 10' think about how rare it is for someone to dunk, let alone have their head at 9'7
And at 6’2
Yurik Vardanyan, with a height of 1.71 cm, jumped 1.30 cm.
Meters…
