- Nicholas’s great passion was lawn tennis. He first got real sight of the game during his visits to England, in 1896, and began playing almost every day. Five tennis courts were soon set up in different royal estates. The family and their friends, all shared Nicholas’s affection for the game. The members of the royal family, mention their love for tennis throughout their letters and diaries, constantly.

Tennis was Tsar Nicholas II's favourite sport! Fitting game for a man like him. RIP.
How lovely it was for them sharing this sport amongst them! How they enjoyed it! So nice but yet such a sad feeling leaves you watching them being so happy not knowing what would happen to them! Love you Royal martyrs!
Glad you enjoyed watching this!
So heartbreaking what happened to them. Always makes me so sad to see these photos, in view of their terrible fate.
At least they were able to experience such joyous times together before their terrible end.
They were such great people❤️it's so sad what happened to them :(
Marina Rico. They should not have been killed. But you must not forget that this dynasty was ruthless and oppresive and inflicted a lot of pain on millions of Russians.
@@andreaerling7614 Did you mean Stalin and Lenin... Go away with your bad vibes, we are here to celebrate the life and love of the NAOTMAA
@@culturamundial3481 Your disregard of history is disturbing. The Tsar was responsible for millions of deaths during his rule. He was a moron who sealed his and his family’s fate.
@@katydid917 they were killed because the white armee gets close to moskow. Guess who was involved? The british relatives from the tsar
@@katydid917 Go talk about the history in other videos, there are thousands of Bolchevik videos for you to belittle the memory of the Tsar and his family. Here it is to celebrate the life of the Romanov family, especially their children. Oh, since you know so much about history, study how many people Stalin murdered. spoiler: he killed more than Hitler.
Todo nuestro amor y respeto para nuestros Angeles ❤OTMA ❤ the Romanov Forever always in our hearts
Wow! This family are just impossibly more gorgeous & glamorous now than they were when they were alive more than 100 years ago! OTMA are so beautiful & the Tzar has the loveliest, kindest face. Sweet!
Thankyou for sharing this I've seen many photo's of the Czar and his daughter's with racquets in hand but I've never seen a video before...it was beautiful to watch 💜
Looking forward to this clip!! It would really be interesting to see the Royal Family playing sports, including tennis!!
We hope you'll enjoy it!
The Romanovs were such a wonderful family weren't they?
Depends on your point of view. If you stick to the 7 of them NAOTMAA and see them as just the family they were fine. Now if you involve more people, decisions, politics, etc. well many points of views and opinions will arise.
Sadly the Tsar made wrong political decisions, following his wife’s advice. They thought God put them in their position... and God put poor people in their position also. So never crossed their mind to make reforms to better the life of the Russian people. If you search a bit, you will find info. A good book in Nicholas and Alexandra. You learnt the social and political life of Russia under his reign.
About OTMA and Alexei, that will always break my heart how the Bolsheviks kill those poor kids
I like to remember them as the wonderful family that they were and leave out all the politics. Nicholas and Alexandra had their faults (we all do, nobody's perfect after all) but they had five exceptional children and they all loved each other; they were happiest when they were together.
I really enjoy watching this video I'm an avid fan of the romanovs...
It's such a wonder to be able to view history like this. I never knew they were involved in tennis, a game which I love also. Thank you for continuing to show such great videos. I've very much enjoyed them. Kris.🇦🇺
Looking forward to getting the book. Best DG
We'd be excited to hear back from you when you get it!
Wonderful
I'm learning so much from your videos! 😍Thank you!💗😄
Thanks 🌸
You're not alone! I very much enjoy them but learn so much too.
I love tennis and romanov family
There is a story about a Yusupov cousin, who was a tennis professional. The cousin was invited to the Yusupov estate in Crimea at the same time The Imperial Family was in residence at their Crimean estate. Tsar Nicholas II, who was an avid tennis player, was anxious to play tennis with the cousin who was therefore invited to play tennis with the Tsar. On one serve by the cousin, the tennis ball slammed into the Tsar's ankle, injuring the Tsar so badly that the Tsar was unable to walk for several days. The Yusupov family was mortified and was very angry with their cousin for playing so hard against the Tsar. However, the Tsar was, as always, quite gracious and appreciated that the relative did not defer to the Tsar and play at a lesser level of intensity. Even so, when the relative was invited to play with the Tsar again, he toned down his game and made certain that he volleyed the tennis ball with less force and more accuracy.
Fascinating!
Oh boy oh boy more vidz of OTMA.
Love this, love THEM!❤️
Lovely family
It was nice to see the Family having fun and enjoying each other's company after watching the very gruesome video of their horrible muders.
Tsar Nicholas had a tattoo!
02:14 Nastaska showing her skills hahahah I love my petite duchesse
Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching! 🌼
Pretty cool! Another thing that Nicolas and his cousin George V had in common..they both had tattoos!
0:13 You can see the dragon tattoo on his arm!
Great video
Thanks for watching! 🌼
By the grace of God, there is never a moment in all time when Nicholas is "no longer" Emperor.
Even over 100 years after their untimely, unprovoked, horrific death, they still pique our interest, still are as relevant, perhaps are even moreso.
I think that Gustav V was a good tennis player, He was once a father. in law of Maria Pavlovna. She spoke Swedish very fluenty but was not happy there.
i love playing tennis, especially when i can go to my yacht afterwards.
When the tsar wants play tennis:
Premiers in 7 hours! It's 7pm here in Melbourne Australia. Sorry will be sleeping at 2am tomorrow (Thursday 20th may)
You'll be able to watch it later on. 🌼
I am in NSW, it came my way at 3.30 in the morning. Lovely video.
Northeast Victoria and I love watching these videos no matter what the time!
Am I imagining it, or does Nicholas II have a tattoo on his right forearm?
he does! it's a dragon if i recall correctly.
0:13 you can see the tattoo on his arm.
@@Elisa-vg4qt I didn’t know that. I knew King Geo V and Nicholas did...I think the king also had a Japanese dragon.
Only 15 seconds left !
Nice choice of music. Bit anachronistic, but it suits the video. A more upbeat number match the energy of the game.
Откуда вы берёте эти кадры?
I wish i had played with my Tatiana 💘💘😍😍
Why The descendants of the tsar live or claim the wealth and the palaces? I don’t understand
What's the chance we can get a video on Maria Botchkareva? I know her story isn't NAOTMAA focused but it was Nicholas who launched her experiences
Mega .
Άρα ο Τσάρος Νικόλαος Ρομανόφ Β στο τένις ήταν Στέφανος Τσιτσιπας 💪🏻☦️🇬🇷❤️🇷🇺☦️💪🏻
Expecting
Thanks!
Tchenks. SUPER.
Thank you too!
So sad to watch ❤❤❤❤❤

Nous ne vous oublierons jamais , nous ne cesserons d évoquer l histoire de votre grande famille, vous êtes immortels...
How could they afford to build 5 Tennis courts?
What? They were worth, in today's money, 250-300 Billion Dollars?
Okay, I, I get it now!
Did Alexi play tee is?
No because he had quite a severe case of Haemophilia B so playing any kind of sports would have been extremely dangerous for him.
5 tennis courts while his people starved!
I would have loved to play a game of Tennis with them all😏😏... While I wear a blue United States Army 7th Cavalry hat with sunglasses 😎😎🇺🇲🇺🇲.🤣🤣. Trust me I'm related to Wild West Legend United States Army (Union) Private 2nd Class (Chief of Scout's) William Fredrick "Buffalo Bill" Cody of the 7th Kansas Cavalry Regiment, 3rd Cavalry Regiment from 1863-1865, 1868-1872. Lieutenant Colonel. (Brevet Major General.) George Armstrong Custer is my Great Great Great God Father.... Fun fact they both met up with Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich Romanov on a Buffalo and Bison hunt in 1871 to help pay off our Debts from the American Civil War (1861-1865) under President Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877) and to help pay off Imperial Russia's debts from the Crimean War (1853-1856) but I will say Custer and his men of the elite 7th United States Army Cavalry might of died at the Battle of the Little Big Horn River, but not in vein.... They died with their boots on. They died with their boots on. You know why because a regiment lives on and has an immortal soul of its own. All for Garry Owen and glory. Our hearts so stout have got us fame for tis known from whence we came, now help me with this fine chorus our hearts so stout have got us fame for tis known from whence we came where ever they go they dread the name of Garry Owen and glory. We are the boys who none dare dun will make the mayor's and Sheriff's run and we'll regard there whole skin. Instead of spa will drink brown ale and pay the reckonin'on the nail no man for debt shall go to jail for Garry Owen and glory.🇺🇲🇺🇲
I prefer Jogging as Lady D Speser. and I am the only one who does not love Novak but Nadal in my country
The communist government murder this beautiful family whatever the problems has been Russia 1900 the people lived happily, but with the Lennin and Stalin died a lot orthodoxies and great Russian people. I'm very agree the Romanov's family are martyrs. Very nice channel😁♥️
Tenis
It honestly sucks what happened to the Romanovs I would rather they rule Russia then the Soviets did I study history a lot and I love alternate history so if they ruled Russia a lot of things would’ve changed and not just in Europe and Russia that goes for China as well. All those innocent lives lost to the Soviet union and even China could’ve easily been prevented if the Romanoffs were still in power
Why is Russia so messed up it’s so sad 😭
What a lovely video! Lots of photos that I hadn't seen before (that's saying something!). The problem with the Romanovs was they liked their privacy and the Russian people never really got to see what they were really like in real life. They lived in their own little world but they knew that most people didn't live like that and the children in particular were interested in what life was like in the real world outside the Imperial Palaces. I don't blame the Tsar and Empress (they'll always be the Tsar and Empress as far as I'm concerned) for wanting to keep their children safe from anarchists, I would have done the exact same thing if I was in their shoes. Is anyone else wondering what Tsarevich Alexei was getting up to while the others were playing Tennis?
You would have done the same thing if you were in their shoes? Their love of privacy and shutting themselves away from the people and problems of the people caused their demise!
It’s terrible the Royal family’s of France and Russia Met such terrible fates. Maybe the brits will get rid of theirs in a much more peaceful mutually amicable way
Food for their people could have saved this family. Wish I had a time machine
I think we should all use Neville Goddard's Revision technique and do something about this horrible thing ,believe they did not die like this create a scene in your mind of them being given a heads up from one of the daughters admirers and believe it in that they all dressed up as poor regular people wearing travelers clothing taking very little and having someone ready at a save point to rescue them*(like in the sound of music an event that actually happened the Von Trap couple had 7 children and they braved the Alps on foot to save themselves) and have them sign a ship's manifest under new names and sail off to the United States to live out the rest of they're lives in safety ....circumstancual DNA evidence doesn't matter to hell with the bolsheviks and Lenen.These people were good people people I really look up to who didnt like the place they had but loved life and each other Use Revision everyday everything is possible.Dont just sit back and do nothing use your imaginations be doers even if it has been 100 years or more Save them!!
Thank you!!! You are so sweet
I read the autobiography of the eldest daughter of the Trap family.
…
Each carried a backpack and had a large suitcase in their hands.
I only brought as much as I could.
We don't climb mountains like in the movie, we cross the train tracks behind the site, we head to the train station called Aigen in Salzburg, and take the first train to the south 🇮🇹 north of Italy.
So we stayed in a small hostel, as Martina wrote to Erica in a letter ✉️.
The villagers of San Giorgio were friendly and the mountain scenery was wonderfully beautiful.
We stayed there for a while.
🇮🇹 The Italian government did not pay the navy pension while my father was in 🇦🇹 Austria, but we went to San Giorgio and finally got it.
Thanks to this, after spending the summer, we arrived in London.
We carried passports, visas, contracts and travel permits to the United States of America.
However, the visa was due to expire in 1939/3 the following year.
We took the 🚂 train through 🇨🇭 Switzerland to 🇫🇷 France.
Then we crossed the high waves of the Channel by boat and went sightseeing in London for just a few hours.
On October 7, 1938, at 3 p.m., we took the 🚂 train to Southampton.
🚢 "The American Farmer" is anchored there.

Too bad he didn't put all that effort into governing a vast empire with any level of intelligence and empathy.
This family is far from being angels as well as official history is far from truth
