Such black and white thinking. It's obviously both dancing and exercising. If it was just a leg routine they wouldn't be playing the accordion and taking turns watching each other dance while clapping, laughing, and bouncing to the beat.
There was a gymnastic school near my home in Minsk. I went there more than 5 years. It was free for the children and their parents. For sure the government could pay the sport schools, because the workers received some penny from every pound. I worked not far from an athletic school in Munich, I ate sometimes at that school because it was cheaper. I don't know who pays the sport trainings, but there were more activities at the sport school in Minsk than in Munich. By the way, I don't like Olympic professional sport.
This is the most impressive choreographed dance I have ever seen. The strength, flexibility, mobility, dexterity, and endurance required of these men is mind boggling. Bravo! Bravo!!
I saw this many years ago when I was a little kid. I stupidly thought that this was just something that all Russians did and if I went to Russia I expected just about any Russian man to be able to dance like that!
turns out Slavs have hip bones way different compared to other Euros, that are built for more optimal squatting and leg motion. You could say the Russians are literally built for this type of shit
i remember my grandpa used to tell me....."son, in the 60's and 70''s we didnt have the word stamina and difficulty in our books.... back then life was easy and enjoyable" i can definitely see why......
If your grandpa told you that, he was either a liar or grew up in a wealthy family. Same as with pretty much any time period, life was hard for poor people, and easy for the rich.
Lol, that is the funniest thing I have read today. With a pen stroke only the slavic russians exist, and the 190 ethnic groups and 25% of the population of Russia does not exist. I bet you would like that, but so far it is not reality.
This is what you do and learn before TV, computers, and iPhones. I loved this kind of dancing 60 years ago and actually taught myself how to do some of the moves. We didn't have much TV or any entertainment. We had to entertain ourselves. So many of us kids became musicians too. A time now when kids can't even read, write or do math.
Merely watching the guy bounce on the toes of one foot while holding his other leg has caused significant damaged to my Achilles tendon and hamstring 🤣
if you guys are here for the kazotsky kick from tf2 and etc (2:18) i dont think anyone would notice it (well some people would or prob alot) but if you look at how tf2 does the kazotsky kick/prisyadka, their heels are more observable but if we look at this videos kazotsky kick, their toes are more observable
One of the greatest dances I've ever seen. The skill required for this epic dance is incredible. How a human body can do all that movement is just tough to believe. The Russian spirit and culture is great!🇷🇺👏💗
Oooooh😮❤ so begnadete Tänzer! So talentiert, kompetent! Woooow grösster Respekt zu diesen Menschen. Hut ab! Was für eine Leistung, und das noch mit Ästhetik und viel Lebensfreude! 🥳😍👍👍
I feel like every single one of these guys either couldnt walk by the time they were 50, or were nearly as spry on the day they died as they were when this was filmed.
No manches,no me imagino cuánto se demoraron en practicar para poder hacer toda esa coreografía completa,yo no aguantaría ni los primeros 30 segundos de esto
Saying male dancers are effeminate is such ignorance. These guys look delightfully masculine! Strong, agile, capable alone or as a group, alert, and perhaps even a little bit dangerous. It doesn't get better than that!
Dont let the music fool u, this isnt a dance, is a hardcore leg day routine.
dancing basically is a hardcore leg day routine lmao
Es una rutina marcial, la patada más suave de uno de esos militares te arranca los dientes.
Such black and white thinking. It's obviously both dancing and exercising. If it was just a leg routine they wouldn't be playing the accordion and taking turns watching each other dance while clapping, laughing, and bouncing to the beat.
@Acr6gAttt-mq2hr bruh are you ok? its not that serious lmao
@@whatTFisThis I'm fine, are you okay? My comment wasn't that serious
moral of the story : never *EVER* skip leg day kids
Lol
Otherwise Khrushchevs administration will kill you
more like ONLY do leg day
that's true
Also core day. You'll be surprised how important core and glutes are for flexibility.
The guy with the accordion at the end looked unreal, this is insane
13 full rotations while playing the accordion. A sight to behold.
Well that became a men’s gymnastics move... which is only worth 0,1 point 😭 and no you can’t just do 13 in a row like him, that’s prohibited..
Kapoiera?😂
@@constantincalota2646this dance is older than Columbo Cristofor
@@adrianciobanu5856 It was a joke!
No wonder why the Soviet Union was super good at gymnastics
Россиянам в гимнастике и сейчас и всегда нет равных!!! 😊
Just as ballet!
Even now in gymnastics the eastern european countries dominate, ukraine, russia and russian from kazachstan
asiatic hipbones give many of them better flexibility and retention of strength at those angles

That's what happens when your mind and body are ONE, so our body does what your mind wants it to!
life would be so much fun if all wars were just dance offs.
then soviets would win cold war
People from Eastern Europe would be weapons of mass destruction
We'd be speaking Russian if it was like that.

@@__username__ It's really hard. Life is already hard in there and the language doesn't help.
Love how it all look like two group of friends starting a dance fight and being like 'oh shit look at that'
That’s actually how the dance was born. and it’s name means ‘cossack’
2:46 Dude really became a circular saw☠☠☠☠☠☠☠
This dance is insanely hard
Dual wielding swords for sure... or Uzis
red cyclone
if only you could see their version of the “coffee grinder” which isn’t part of this performance.
This guy: 🌪️
Everyone else: ⬅️↖️⬆️↗️➡️
The guy at 3:12 was doing 720 degree jump spins. Impressive.
He stuck the landing so sharply I was like omgggg
and remember his arms were streched which should make him spin slower. maybe if he closed his arms he would have opened a portal to the shadow realm
Just a regular soviet sniper training.
HAHAHAAA 🤣@@yougerloger6824

1:25 can we appreciate the creativity of using your leg as a gun?

2:22 THEY ARE ALL SO PROUD AT HIM, LOOK AT THEM SMILING!
Wow, very impressive dancing. It must have taken years of practice and even then, most of us would not be able to do this.
Ну почему же не т ? Практика бы
The ENTIRETY of eastern/Central europe: Allow us to introduce ourselves
Если что это украинский танец гопак.
Козаки просто понтовались друг перед другом кто круче придумает движение а потом это все положили на музыку.
Some of this only takes months and a lot of flexibility
@@neonmem8826I’d argue it’s more strength than flexibility

Yes…
Im going to show my grandchildren footage of the olympics and claim my generation was like this too 😂

I love how they have their own little character intros
I’m a bboy and you can see where modern breakers get moves like Zulu spins and kick-outs. Crazy strength and skill!
Well, actually... Zulu spins come from the Zulus.
Never skip leg day.
An iconic Russian dance combining ballet with traditional dance from its multi-cultural diverse etnicity.
Russians are anything but diverse and multi-cultural ethnicity. Don’t insult us like that.

Are you speaking from experience I feel like you are
It took me 2 months to learn this dance, but before these 2 months I needed 4 years of karate training (because we train also legs there)
just the kick or did you learn the jumping shenanigans too
@@tekgewet both
2 month is reaaaally fast pace, dancers on video are profesionall ballet dancers and they probablly practice moves for years
Yoo I also am learning the dances in this video and I also do karate! (Going on 7 years and am testing for my brown belt in 2 weeks wish me luck)

Amazing performance!

Peak human form. Absolutely stunning.

I very rarely get impressed that much by performances
But this, this was great
just imagine if one of them kicked you... 💀
Imagine taking a full blown Twisting Leg kick to the shin from any of These guys
I never skip leg day but this is hard
way beyond hard man
Knee, hip and ankle health. Just incredible.
Isaac Newton been real quiet since this dropped...
My single goal in life is to dance as well as these soldiers.
3:12 he goes full crash bandicoot

The laws of physics lost their passports and were not let into Russia.
After many months of practice, I managed to pull off a few moves from this video.

Truly amazing and I will never stop loving this.
Every summer intensive at my ballet studio, a Russian ballet teacher comes to teach that week, and he can do stuff like this 😭
So thats how russians stay warm during the winter.

Individually I could pull off a good number of these moves ... but putting them together like this ... I'd be dead in 10 seconds
This is why armies should have dance offs between a random regiment of either army
