It’s the Formula 1 Of the Winter Olympics! But crafting a bobsleigh track requires rocket science and great planning.
Part science, part trivia, this show uses advanced analytics to answer all those questions that you always had, but were afraid to ask! bit.do/QuestionsEN

"Concrete, coated with ice. The two hardest substances known to man" AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
I know... dumb, lazy journalism.
That’s why concrete is used to cut steel.
so... how do they actually build it???
Daniel García Miguel ....similar style to the stocky Donut motoring channel presenter. Check it out. *Bangkok-Johnnie*
MADE WITH CONCRETE THEN COATED WITH ICE

Nonononononono- not " _what_ is it made of", but " _how_ is it made?"
What is the design process? How is a proper location selected? What kind of contractor is hired to make it? What are some of the minimum requirement for all tracks? What are some issues that always come up between construction of each track that need to be addressed? How has track design evolved over the decades? Has construction techniques and materials changed over time? Do competitors get to give their two cents on the track performance, which is then incorporated into later track designs?
EVA_Unit_4A my comment was mostly a joke
3:30 you got the brakeman and one of the pushers mixed up... the brakeman is at the back
i kinda thought this was gonna be one of those in depth videos were you watch them make a track
When we went to Whistler for a holiday, we got to see that track. Very cool lol
How are outdoor snowboarding tracks made? Do they build a frame up underneath and pack snow on top, or are the sides pure snow?
no, it's just very skillful movement of the snow by snowcat drivers
What I know about Bobsleighing: Noone's as good at it as the Germans. Partly because they have four out of those 16 tracks.
1:32 Actually it snows a great deal in Hawaii on the top of the volcanic peaks of Mauna Kea @13,803 feet (4,207 meters) and Mauna Loa @ 13679 feet (4169 metres). 😁
Burning question...
I don't know maybe about Triathlon, my sport :)
Mistake: the Swiss bobsled track started in St. Moritz and ended in CELERINA. Cresta is the original name of a Swiss sport that is actually now Skeleton.
Cresta was the name of the hamlet the run ended in. That hamlet is now part of the village of Celerina.
The sport was named after the track, which was named after the village.
may be for these reasons they go faster than the cresta !!!
Jack Black?????
A non funny Jack Black, lets call him Jack Sack.
Jack Black and James Corden had a baby...
Omid Toussi that's what I thought
Khairil Edzham Ismail I see where you come from lol
What's that song in the beginning
Been a dream of mine to try bobsledding, No idea were to get started. Is there even anywere near me to try it? (Ottawa Canada)
The Edwardian there is a natural luge course in Negaunee, Michigan. But for the real tracks, salt like city, park city, whistler and vancouver are the only ones in north america
So the closest one to me is about a 15 hour drive away, great
The Edwardian not really you can go to lake placid, NY and they have a bobsled ride but you can’t drive, but maybe you can get better and maybe do more. If you want to do luge/skeleton that may be hard because the closest track is actually in Muskegon, MI, and it’s only luge. Skeleton is only offered at Salt Lake City, whistler or maybe lake placid if they do that. Hope this helps
hm NY is only 3 hours, might make it a trip, thanks a lot!
Theres one in Kingston
How do you get the bobsled to the Olympics? I want a video. And then show us dragging it up the hill. Then the ride down and then follow the sled home.
I love this guy
Burning Questions? It would melt the track
Ruim de mais assistir ao vivo as olimpíadas no site oficial olímpico,porque não coloca a live no CZcams direto?
Jack Rodrigo eu reparei muita falta de respeito,quero assistir no celular e não dá
Jack Rodrigo O problema é saber: Pra qual país
So why do the pushers need to get in the sleigh?
Concrete and ice, the two hardest substances known to man? uhhhhh....
ummmm to that man I guess
Lazy journalism.
Here’s a 251 second video that doesn’t explain how a bobsleigh track is made!
I love bobshelding
You didn't answer the question.
Ryan Davis It's made with concrete and ice, and designed through a computer.
Ryan Davis it's in the video.
But how do they freeze an even layer of ice over a sloped surface that occasionally has to be on what are basically walls (turns) as well?
Ry
He did, most tracks are made out of concrete and ice and designed and tested in an computer.
So these tracks go to -11?
Cool video I love the olympics
The role of the pilot is pretty obvious. But what do the pushers and brakeman do during the run?
I don’t think he realizes that ice and concrete are not the hardest substances known to man...
Pfff! 140°? Seriously? i went on a water ride in Germany with a drop of 153°!
Where do I reconize this guy from?
Kungfu panda
Simon I think it is Brian Hull... he has his own CZcams channel

Concrete and ice are not the hardest substances known to man...

Sanka.......ya dead?

this guy thinks he's funny but he's not
He's charming.

Interesting facts, but just not funny :/
Generation X,Y, and Z don't care about the Olympics. They been playing it for years as a video game. Crowds are way down.
Concrete and ice are the hardest substance known to man huh?
Evidently you never heard of my wife's thick head
It's impenetrable, nothing gets through it..
Interesting information, but how do you make a Bobsleigh track? And please stop with all these ridiculous jokes
"Concrete and ice the two hardest substances known to man" -- Er... NO... where did the Olympic channel get such rubbish research?
Stop trying to be funny dude you aint
