Every Summer Olympic Sport Explained in 20 Minutes

[@hotrodrunning]

*Correction* I called squash and racquetball the same sport in the video, however, although they look similar they are 2 different sports. People are trying to add *squash* to the Olympics. Sorry for this error! Thanks for watching! If you enjoyed this video do me a favor and subscribe, I put many hours into this video so it would be greatly appreciated! Also, hit the like button.

why squash and not padel?

also lacrosse is confirmed for LA 2028!

[@dundee6402]

@@sillygoosegooseSquash, lacrosse, cricket, baseball/softball and flag football are all new/returning sports to the LA games in 2028! Although some of them will be removed for the 2032 Melbourne games like karate and breaking were.

[@thevug3590]

Climbing is no longer a combined event of the 3, but rather split speedclimbing into it's own thing, and bouldering and lead are still a combined category.

[@juliananalysts]

Man I feel like Einstein now that I know all the sports at the Olympics

[@gabrielvega1713]

I really want the Olympics to add an event just called "The Olympic" thats 1 event from each discipline, one or 2 a day for the entire duration, and one athlete has to do all the things. Test just how well rounded you really are as an athlete

[@dundee6402]

That would be humanely impossible though. Not only are there 140+ types of sport variations at the Olympics, but they require very different things from the body. There's for instance no way you can be a good quick, nimble gymnast and a buff, strong weightlifter at the same time. Not to mention this would be a logistical nightmare, since you would need so many training sessions in quick successions from very different trainers across different fields.

[@dundee6402]

To be fair the olympics already have the triathlon, modern pentathlon and decathlon which already fill the "well-roundedness" you're asking 🤷

[@johannhamann681]

great idea

[@Pepsiman1848]

Genius. The IOC should hire you.

[@gabrielvega1713]

@@dundee6402 that's why i said 1 event per sport. 32 events over 19 days

[@ekaterina-bee]

Climbing was a combined event in Tokyo with only one medal set for lead, bouldering and speed together, however, in Paris speed got its own separate category while bouldering & lead stay combined. It was a very anticipated change, because speed climbing requires a very different set of skills compared to the rest. Looking forward to separate categories for lead and bouldering in the future

Thank you so much for making this video, you have done a super good job and can’t wait to watch your channel grow! You should definitely do a vid on every discontinued Olympic game!

[@hotrodrunning]

Thanks! I appreciate the support! That’s a very good idea I may do that after the next few videos I have in the works currently

I love how for “long distance” he put in an event that’s not actually an Olympic event😭

[@HikrisDopl]

3200 is largely an American thing lmao. Distance in the Olympics is really 5k/10k

[@q12aw50]

@@HikrisDopl I’ve seen 3000m a couple of times but I don’t think the Olympics does it they just skip from 1500 to 5k which is unfortunate there’s a lot to be had in a 3000 or 3200m race

Veryyy minor correction but I thought it’s quite interesting - horse riding was in the ancient Olympic Games, 680BC 😅 it’s actually one of the oldest sports in general. If we are talking modern times, the equestrian sports were also part of the 1900 Paris Olympics

[@johnnyyy1111]

Also this is the last Olympics that showjumping is part of the pentathlon (thank god).🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@catpool36]

I cannot wait for this years olympics. Rugby sevens are looking VERY good this year, cannot wait to see Dupont play sevens instead of the usual rugby. Same with cycling - with tour de france just ending and most of the riders being half dead, maybe someone unexpected is going to do something for once. I dont remember being this hyped for the games in a long time.

[@hotrodrunning]

Sounds exciting! I’m personally more of a track & field and basketball fan. Sydney McLaughlin and Noah Lyles are always fun to watch and can do some damage in the sprint events and hurdles this year, and I feel like the 400m record is up for grabs by legit anyone, it’s about time someone breaks 43. As for basketball, Team USA is very exciting and a lot of those guys are coming up on the end of their professional careers, so it’s kinda a last hurrah for them!

[@catpool36]

@@hotrodrunning the track and field events have always been a staple piece of the Olympics - definitely going to be watching that as well, even if I don't know the athletes that good. I am expecting Lyles to go at least near to the 200m WR. As for basketball, I think that USA is going to dominate this year - I don't see anyone coming even close with the roster that they have.

Hi, I’d like to offer a correction: squash and racquetball are completely different sports played with different racquets, balls, and on a different court. Racquetball is faster, and more high velocity. Great video Aaron, but this bit here is incorrect.

[@Fadethat]

It’s easy to mistake them, maybe to the naked eye they are the same, but all you have to do is listen to the difference to realize.

[@hotrodrunning]

Whoops! Thanks for noticing this error I have added a correction in a pinned comment. I appreciate you watching!

Karate sparring "Kumite" is pronouced : KOO-ME-TAY

My bad, I looked up a pronunciation and that’s how someone else said it lol

[@decathreat6194]

What about cricket? Good video

[@ikkue]

6:59 Japanese vowels are like Spanish; every vowel are pronounced the same and are always pronounced. So "Kumite" is pronounced "Koo-mi-teh"
