During the pregame show at the USC vs Ohio state game, one of the camera men got to close to one of the tuba players at the end and had to pay the price
The i-dotter has a specific route and specific actions to perform as part of the performance. And they haven't changed in 70+ years. The cameraman shouldn't have been in the way.
The guy know, like most tv news tryhards he was trying to get one of those way to close up, way too ultra wide lens shots of it happening. A lazy man’s “action”. Unfortunately for him it didn’t pay off and he got decked.
This with a side of any cameraman on the field at the same time as the band needs to remember to give performers a wide berth because they change direction frequently, suddenly, and without warning. I've bowled for a few myself
I played contra last year for marching show and the field judges at finals got in the way of the horn flash and he got hit right in the face by my bell, that was the scariest moment of my life
They say that for competitions, if a field judge gets in the way, run them over… Can’t help but think that guy kind of got to fulfill his training that day
the "WATCH OUT!" is just too good - just early enough to count as a warning, just late enough to preclude the cameraman from avoiding the up-fucking of his shit
Dotting the "i" is a major thing at OSU. We are the only band that does a script. It's a huge tradition and that cameraman should get out of the way! You don't stop in the middle of that script - no matter who's in the way. I can't imagine anyone being nonchalant with that honor.
@@connorpeters7310 No the cameraman should know not to get that close because he is the i-dotter which he should know that the Sousa leans down to dot the i
@@citrusblast4372 Doesn't matter. They're drilled to stay in formation and never break set. If it's in their way, they're trained to run it over. It's everyone else's job to stay out of their way.
Um, this is a time honored tradition for Ohio State. They work their asses off and achieve the highest level of discipline to be able to pull this off. They deserve the honor.
It's always the camera person's fault in these types of things. The band has certain drill and choreography they have to do, and if someone gets in their way they are basically trained to ignore them. The camera guy was lucky he got a warning
That is a great member of the band. He yelled "Look out!", but kept doing exactly what he was supposed to. Camera got what it deserved. Hope the sousaphone is okay, though!!
No really, it's a sousaphone. If you do not know the difference, let me tell you: they are essentially the marching version of a tuba, but the tube structure is much different. They play in the same general range but due to tubing variations will have a subtle difference in sound. This is coming from a euphonium player who is constantly having to explain the differences between a euphonium and a baritone horn. These differences are even more minute, but are nevertheless important.
Doesn’t matter that he warned him as he was doing the bow, if you’re going to go onto a field with the band playing it’s common sense not to get up in their face. We have a specific drill to follow and we can’t just stop doing it because someone got close.
I'm in the Gator band, but I love watching the formation of "Script Ohio." That camera man really needed to be around the 15-yard line for two reasons: 1) So he didn't get his ass handed to him by a nice sousaphone. 2) So it didn't look like there were two dots on the "I".
0:13 I would cry if I had to do that with the sousaphone I march with. I'm already weak enough standing there and practicing I don't want to exercise with a sousasphone on my back.
That "WATCH OUT" was NOT enough time to get a heavy camera out the way...BUUUUT......that's an old tradition. He should have known to not be in the way
I always wonder how the camera guy was talked to after this incident. Like definitely not good what he did by getting too close, but.......the shot was perfect, it made you feel like you were there with him
2 things...notice the drum major hurts the guys hand on the return slap, and then(I think) the guy yells "watch out" just before he "pwns" the cameraman. Great video...thanks for posting
@MisterChef51 a sousaphone have a slightly different valve structure, and a tubing formation that makes intonation weakened along with a more "mellow" tone than that of a standard tuba. and also: yes, sousaphones are the ones that wrap around you...
The camera operator was warned before going onto the field too. There are no good new overhead shots of Script Ohio because there's always a random secondary dot trying to get the "best angle."
I play both sousaphone and tuba alot. Sousaphones are louder because of the bell style and up whereas tuba is louder lower pitch because it's not a flarred out bell.
@Johnsvloggity A sousaphone is basically a 3-valve tuba that wraps around the player there is no difference in playing style between the two instruments, A sousa is just better for marching.
I rember our college band director, Dr. Pickard, telling us to run right over the camera folks if they didn't get out of our way. I came close to having to do it a couple of times. That was 30+ years ago (Marching Mizzou). As a 5'3" piccolo player I wasn't too intimidating, but I'm surprised the camera man didn't move away from that sousaphone! I hope the sousaphone wasn't dented!
Believe it or not, the souse player was in the right on this, that camera man should know his boundaries when it comes to being on the field with the band. I used to get free meals for running over judges in competitions soo
I marched 3 years of college in 2 university. What we were told about camera men. And I quote the director 'If a camera man gets in your way, there problem.'
FUCK YEAH! I'm 20, been a tuba/sousa player since I was in middle school and this shit happens all the time. Instructors always tell you no matter if there's a camera or judge in the way get your ass to where you belong. Ran over one each in my day. Best feeling in the world.
I beg to differ. The more common Tubas have the ability to make it way easier to play lower notes with good quality due to the compensating 4th valve or rotor. Common Sousaphones only go to the 3rd valve, you can still play the same notes, but it may be slightly harder to get a good quality sound on the pedal notes but its still definitely do-able. Unless you have a Tuba that is in a complete different key, one in not going to play lower or higher than the other. Although i do see what you mean though, i do find it easier to play high F's (2 octave higher than a concert f) on my cerveny, i can still do it on my sousa though. Sousaphones and Tubas typically have different stock mouthpieces. Most tubas i buy came with a Helleburg. While most sousaphones come with a b68 basic Yamaha mouthpiece. Over my time playing with the mouthpieces, i find it quite easier to reach higher notes with the Helleberg...so what do i do? I swap the mouthpieces. My helleburg is now on my sousaphone. So now, when i want to play really high or do octave jumps, i can do it with ease. Tl;Dr, for me it all comes down to the mouthpiece. The typical sousaphone mouthpiece makes it hard to play high while the Tuba mouthpieces make it easy. Also, i love the tuba, and Sousaphone, i just hate when people are like "um, aktually...its a Sousaphone." If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, and walks like a duck, then its a duck.

I remember my band instructor saying that no matter what was in the way, you gotta keep going, even if it means plowing down bystanders.
Makes that scene at the end of Animal House make so much more sense.

hey at least he said "WATCH OUT!" before he did it!
I thought he said chow
@@mryoshi.-1296 ka chow!
He didn't even finish saying watch out before he proceeded to obliterate the cameraman 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@NO CHOKE ZONE I'm not saying he didn't 💯💯💯😂😂😂
It's like saying watch out and shooting someone point plank with a gun :P
no time to react.

he literally said it as he did it, there was no time to react
"Watch out!"

WATCH OUT (Smack)
One does not simply "Get in the way of the OSU marching band"
Um, this is a time honored tradition for Ohio State. They work their asses off and achieve the highest level of discipline to be able to pull this off. They deserve the honor.
Even though I studied broadcast journalism in college, I was more concerned about the sousaphone than the camera...

THE "WATCH OUT" IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY HIM STARING DEAD ON AS HE FUCKING SMACKS THE CAMERA AT HYPERSONIC SPEEDS WITH THAT THING 😭😭😭
Navi: "WATCH OUT!" - link hits navi
Tuba: "WATCH OUT!" -tuba hits camera
That "WATCH OUT" was NOT enough time to get a heavy camera out the way...BUUUUT......that's an old tradition. He should have known to not be in the way
And the horn doesn't have a scratch on it. Priceless.
Dam, this dude got to hit expensive equipment? That's like 100x better than running over a field judge!
“Tuba player hits camera man with tuba”
Numbuh 1 and his father: “SOUSAPHONE!”
I'm so glad that I watched this live on television. It's not quite the same as watching a recording of it on CZcams.
funnily enough, I was more worried about the tuba than the cameraman...
just had a band show today. I showed a freshman this video saying that if a camera or judge is in your way or in your spot you HIT THEM
WATCH OUT! RKO OUT OF NOWHERE!
0:18
Tuba Player: *”WATCH OUT!”*
*(hits camera)*
*(BANG)*
Cameraman: *(This is fine)*
I always wonder how the camera guy was talked to after this incident. Like definitely not good what he did by getting too close, but.......the shot was perfect, it made you feel like you were there with him
Only you'd either A be going to the hospital from concussion or B be stuck inside the tuba if the camera were you lol
I'm from Michigan and I love this band.
Aye, it's fair game. He said "WATCH OUT" before he came down.
nah
LITERALLY 0.1 second larer
And this is the result of getting close to a tuba player (tuba and sousaphone are just alike doesn't matter how they say it 1 I am a tuba playa)
Atleast they didnt mix up tuba and contra 🤷♀️
2 things...notice the drum major hurts the guys hand on the return slap, and then(I think) the guy yells "watch out" just before he "pwns" the cameraman.
Great video...thanks for posting
I like how he said "WATCH OUT" before he hit the cameraman
I’m surprised the announcer didn’t even react to it
I love that crazy walk at 0:11 . Best moment of the video!
My band instructor used this as an example that no matter what, we continue the show
Epic! Through the watchful, (ouch) eyes of the camera, man.

i like how there is a chunk of the camera that falls off
@taterdatuba and yes sousaphones do have a "bigger" sound than concert tubas, but seriously a sousaphone is just a marching tuba.

notice he yelled what out before he bowed
yeah euphonium has a cylindrical bore and the baritone has a conical bore. correct me if i am wrong.
Narrator: He did not watch out.
0:19 Watch out
Kramer: Head's up!!!
@AmberHeskett4 There is also somewhat of a large difference in the embouchure too, from what i hear from my friends that play sousa and tube.

The cameraman is immortal!!
And this is why you zoom in rather than getting 2 inches away.
I don’t know why the tuba guy’s (that hit the cameraman) face looks like Tom Cruise’s to me 😂
Same 😂
To be fair, the cameraman did get a warning and he chose not to obey.
someday, i wanna be that dot, also they have the most beautiful sousaphones ive ever seen.
Believe it or not, the souse player was in the right on this, that camera man should know his boundaries when it comes to being on the field with the band. I used to get free meals for running over judges in competitions soo
Perhaps it's the cameraman's first day at work and no one told him about the bow 💀
A Flawless Performance > Brain Damage
Hit 6 on your keyboard to re-live the experience all over again and again and again
Dotting the I in the Ohio state band is the biggest honor there.. i wouldve done the same
he said right before he went "watch out!"
He said watch out!
Worst part is the camera knew when he said watch out he wasn't fast enough
I marched 3 years of college in 2 university. What we were told about camera men. And I quote the director
'If a camera man gets in your way, there problem.'
The tuba and sousaphone are very similar, but calling one the other is like calling a concert grand piano a cottage piano.

that poor sousa 🥲
you can even hear the sousaphone guy say watch out at 0:18
Hey Camera Guy, The Sousaphone has the Right away!
the cameraman must have been wearing something with michigan on it
RIP the camera man with a concussion
When I first saw that, I was laughing what seemed like 5 minutes straight!!! THAT is why they make ZOOM BUTTONS!!! LMFAO!!
I would be so pissed if some camera man ran into my tuba like that lol
He even says watch out
oh my gawd... i hope the tuba is ok.
Well if you notice, there isn't to much of a dent on the bell. I was really scared there would be.
