    The most impressive thing here was clearly the sprinter almost beating Ronaldo without wearing cleats.
    That's some insanely efficient zig zagging!

      @soshianceyavari4892 Před 10 lety +171

      It's more impressive that Ronaldo nearly matched the sprinter in a straight line dash. Especially since his form was lacking a few tweaks that would have put him in the lead if rectified.

      Soshiance Yavari Dude 0,3 s diffrence in 25m is alot. 25m x 4 = 100m
      0,3 x 4 = 1,2s he runs a 10.40? so that means Ronaldo only runs a 11.60.
      And he even got an advantage over the sprinter because hes wearing better shoes for acceleration rofl.

      ***** You can't calculat this way.
      At start, he lose time because he must push on his body to the tempo.
      The second 25 meter are faster because he has a "flying start" for this.

    To everyone that keeps saying this is unfair:
    Its not unfair because they aren't looking only at who wins, they are looking at the way they move. In futbol, you have to always be thinking, where is sprinting, you know where you have to go. Listen to them, they were comparing their strides and turns. I think it was good they let them keep the shoe they were most used to and most comfortable in because you're going to run better in the shoe you normally run in. I agree that this would be unfair if they did this for only the purpose of who won.

      look, I'm a track athlete, and Cristiano can`t sprint for shit, he has high stride frequency, but ZERO displacement, and what about his form... absolutely HORRIBLE. With that 25m time (where he pretty much gained his top end speed while the sprinter was still accelerating) he can't run sub-11.

    You guys dont seem to understand how much 3/10 of a second is on a 25 meter dash.. The sprinters PB is 10.14 and assuming his time with these trainers at 100m would be about 10.5 seconds Ronaldo would still be way above 11 seconds on the 100m dash. He loses 0.3 secs on 25m, so lets estimate he´d be losing at least 1.2 seconds on 100m (probably even more than that) which would be about 11.7 seconds, which is not extremely fast for a soccer player. I can't listen to those comparisons between sprinters and soccer players anymore. Soccer players just cannot keep up with straight line sprinters.

      the fastest football players probably can do a low 11s 100 metres. All the young players are quick nowadays, back when this was filmed Ronaldo was the quickest but a lot of guys like Mbappe and Sterling would smoke Ronaldo in a 100 metre dash. The fastest I ever ran a 100 metres was 11.6 and I don't do as much training as these players do, i trained for sprinting but not as much as these players do. I'm saying that Mbappe or someone like that would get a low 11 time and maybe even break 11 seconds with proper sprint training.

      Now, that is not to say soccer players are inferior athletes; they just don't have the same training emphasis. Soccer is a balance if agility, speed, and endurance; football is nothing but pure power and speed.

    • @AgencyEric
      @AgencyEric Před 10 lety +35

      ***** Some of what you say is true, but the idea that Chris Johnson's speed is comparable to Bolt is like saying a hare can hang with a cheetah. It's not close
      Bolt runs 100m (notably longer than 100 yards). He has covered that in 9.58 seconds, which would be 40m in 3.83! Now convert that for yards and you get....3.50!! To make it even more lopsided, the combine uses hand timing, whereas electronic timing is used in sprint races. The typical conversion from a hand time to FAT is .2, so Bolts combine 40 yard would be 3.3 seconds.
      Now, you might be tempted to say well the first part of the sprint is the slowest because of acceleration, but if you look up Bolts actual splits he covered the first 40m in 4.3 seconds, which converted to yards and -.2 for FAT gives a 40 yard combine time of 3.74.

    Ronaldo is quite fast especially when you consider how inefficient his sprinitng technique is. By changing his technique, he would get a much faster time. Ronaldo's technique is helpful for soccer though because having your arms out is typical to hold off opponents and for maintaining balance while having to change directions or absorb contact. Ronaldo is actually better build than the pro sprinter for sprinting. He's taller and more muscular. They should do a video where Ronaldo learn and do sprinters form and see what time he gets.

      Don't pretend to be an expert when you're quite clueless.

The 10m splits in a 100m are totally different, depending on the part of a race, Bolt did 10m-20m in 0.99sec and 60m-70m in 0.81sec, huge difference.
      Furthermore, certain sprinters, like Powell and Brommel, specialize in acceleration while guys like Bolt and De Grasse specialize in speed maintenance and max velocity. This test focuses purely on acceleration thus gives Ronaldo an advantage.

      Yeah... No. Sprinters dont just "run" they sprint, it's a technique that takes years to perfect, it is sort of jumping really really fast. Don't make it sound like fotballers have it hard and sprinters have it easy

      Khu Meng what are you on about sprinting is hard it will take years before you can start looking like your legs are just cycling when you are running

      Khu Meng and sprinters have to keep training cause its very easy to get slower

    one of the reason of big difference of speed in a zig zag pattern is the sprinter is not wearing the spikes. anyone who has actually played on field knows how big of a difference this can make.

      Usain Bolt isn't the only great sprinter. There are many other who run sub 10sec.
      So why a noname sprinter? To don't let ronaldo looks bad in comparison?

    • @momozay243
      @momozay243 Před 10 lety

      What? didn't understand some of the things you said. Bolt isn't the only fast sprinter yes that's true. The only problem is Bolt hasn't been caught with PED's yet. That's the problem modern sprinters are facing, some are just caught with PED's like: Asafa Powell and Tyson Gay. Both fast guys, but they`ve been caught. Bolt was almost caught too, they have to prove it though

    • @Kirihigo
      @Kirihigo Před 10 lety

      i asked why they took a noname sprinter in the video. Maybe to give ronaldo a chance. Nothing more. About PED's it's a different story but you have to distinguish between sprinters. Also between Gay and Powell. For example Powell took oxilforin which helps you to burn fat and it is found in many medicines but it's not a performance enhancer. You have to take an extremly dose of it to enhance your perfomance and this isn't possible. It's like drinking to much coffee. Why should he take it on purpose? He often mentioned it. You can easy caught oxilforin. So it doesn't make sense. Unlike Tyson Gay he took steroids on purpose. He admit it and that's the point of the distinction.
      About Bolt, to be honest i don't know if he take PED's or not but jamaicas doping controlls aren't the best.

    Very interesting. Credit to Ronaldo for allowing himself to be analyzed like this. I'd like to see him do the zigzag against teammate Gareth Bale!

      jamar Raccoon Or meby they hoped CR to win and vs Usain he would get even more humiliated? And it will cost you 200,000 Dollar to get Usain to run.
      And he wont do a Zigzag because he dont want to destroy his ankles.

    • @IwontSay

    Overall time
    25m: CR - 3,61 vs sprinter - 3,31
    25m zigzag: CR - 6,35 vs sprinter - 6,86

  • @bonstad
    @bonstad Před 5 lety +1

    This is 25m. Bolt's split was 3.73 over his first 30m in the Olympics. He would have been more than 5 m ahead after 30m against Ronaldo.

  • @earljellicoe5732

    There are so many myths and bullshit surrounding how fast footballers are. Most would struggle to break 12 seconds in the 100m, the fastest would be low 11s, the only ones running in the 10s would be people who crossed over from doing track. Most footballers guesstimate their times based on what they did as a kid which is dubious at best. As for the brass tax, Theo Walcott's only confirmed time is a hand timed 11.58 as a 14 year old. That's moderately quick, but since a lot of British kids who run quicker than that then actually keep training as sprinters as adults and struggle to get in the low to mid 10s, it's dubious to just presume Walcott must be loads quicker now.
    Also there is absolutely no evidence that Gareth Bale ran 11.4 as a kid, again the only confirmed times he ran are 2 min 24 in the 800m and 4min 59 in the 1500m set in 2002. Everything else is just rumours and guessing.
    Also the quickest sprinters in the NRL did a 100m race, proper on track with spikes, the winning time was 11.1, and rugby league players are a lot more explosive and powerful than footballers.

      +Earl Jellicoe that wasn't the fastest NRL (Rugby League) players though, the fastest NRL players are guys like James Roberts and Marika Koroibete and they both run it at about mid 10"s Koroibete is about a 10.6-10.5 and I'd say Roberts is about a 10.4

    • @whodat6836
      @whodat6836 Před 8 lety

      I believe that's what he means as myths. Is there anything to confirm those times for those nrl players?

    • @jordanmathers3710
      @jordanmathers3710 Před 8 lety

      who dat they have probably done timed sprints, but a lot of it is recorded on what they have done in game, like how many k/ph they hit while sprinting, Koroibete even hit the equivalent of a 10.36 in a rainy game with a torn up ground
