New Zealand Family Reacts to Biggest Baddest Football Hits in NFL History!

[@alarrim29574]

@Hawaii 4-0 I’m a soccer player mainly so I don’t really enjoy football all that much. Hated practice but there’s nothing like a Friday night idk why but that and the teammates is the only reason I played

[@IMODELCROCS]

@Hawaii 4-0 I can agree with you there 100% also coming from a town that didn't throw the ball our running backs got beat up regularly. Bunch of well fed farm boys they were alright but it did take a toll hahah I still have part of my middle finger knuckle floating around.

Lifelong Seahawks fan here. I loved watching Kam Chancellor play. He was a menace on the field to opposing teams. Hopefully you guys can make it to Seattle for a game! Its an amazing experience.

[@hankarmentrout6697]

Kam was from my area the 757 of Virginia on the East Coast Tidewater

[@raysgames9778]

Hey NZ family. I love all your videos. I played football in high school. I was a linebacker, so was on the defense. To answer Nadine's question, yes it does hurt some when you hit. But I think a part of it has to do with momentum and force. When I was moving forward and hitting the offensive player, I felt like the blow was a lot less for me. Additionally, since I saw it coming, I controlled where I was hitting on my own body. In this way, the physics encouraged aggression really, as it hurts less to hit someone than to be hit.

[@jeffburdick869]

I never played organized football, but I played competitive hockey for years, and in my experience, it always hurt far less being the hitter than the hittee. I have to imagine its the same in football.

[@Usernam321]

I played middle linebacker, and the hardest hit I had I didn’t feel, but the running back was unconscious. A coach said “You’re either the hammer or the nail” and that’s the best way to describe how it feels.

[@isaacortega2019]

i played free safety and corner and my coaches would say “be the hammer or the nail” one time i was a sophomore practicing with varsity and this senior running back about 6’1 200 ran right up the A gap and leveled me and i didnt feel a thing

[@Berto2K]

Happy to see a number of my 49ers in the replays. Ronnie Lott (#42) was an intense hitter. He broke a finger on a tackle in one game. In order to miss the least amount of time in the season he opted to have it amputed at the knuckle vs having it set and heal.

[@Berto2K]

@@cp368productions2 actually no brain damage at all in his whole career. That was just the type of player he was. Met him in person a few times in the late 90s.

[@albertrios5168]

@Berto2K, I was thinking the same. I grew up in the Ronnie Lot Era, and he was my inspiration for trying to deliver the most devastating hits I could, when I played.

[@squarebear619]

@@Berto2K they have tested 101 players for CTE and 100 of them had it. So I highly doubt he doesn't or didn't have damage because the majority do.

[@IamChevalier]

He was awesome... Another defensive back that was tough as nails was Donnie Shell of the Steelers. I was at a game in the Astrodome between the Oilers and Steelers when Earl Campbell was handed the ball - he was mountain and routinely just ran over people - but on this play, Shell came up and hit him so hard - Campbell was knocked backwards off his feet - you could hear that hit throughout the entire dome.

[@alonenjersey]

Your beloved 49ers love very good so far this season.

[@melissastapleton5384]

Yay! A new NZ video to brighten my day! 💕💕💕💕 The person giving the hit DOES NOT get hurt if they are using the correct posture and the hit is done correctly. My son is a 6 foot, 280 lb 16 year old, and has been playing football since age 4. He’s starting center, and hopefully will get a college scholarship. That’s the dream anyway!

The hit made on the #10 receiver diving for the football was brutal. That was Emmanuel Sanders for my hometown Broncos and he was severely injured from that play. Didn't return for a good while. If you wanna see another vicious hit like that, I suggest reacting to Johnny Knox's hit. Often voted as the most brutal hit in the NFL, and it ended his career.

He had a cleat gash that took a dozen stitches to close - he never noticed it during the game. So - how do those guys get back up? Yeah. it's only later that they'll really feel that hit. As always, you guys are a joy to watch.

[@jeffdetmer4681]

Nice reactions guys. For many years guys were taught to stick the helmet in, but to hit with the face not the crown. Those top of the helmet hits cause many injuries to the guy doing the hitting, due to the neck compression. Some of these clips would not be legal today, but they still happen. You guys (if you haven't already) should check out some of the more beautiful and graceful parts of the game. Here is a link to a video of the great running back Barry Sanders and 50 of his greatest runs. Where he grew up, they didn't have tackle football for kids, so he played flag football. He says he learned many of his moves and jukes then, making guys miss when trying to pull his flags. I saw an interview once with a defensive player who when asked about tackling (or trying to) Barry said I swear the guy can cut and change direction even when his feet are off the ground. LOL. Hope you all enjoy this. Okay KZbin won't let me copy and paste the link (maybe it's because it's an NFL channel video). Just search Barry Sanders 50 most ridiculous plays of all time. Cheers.

Just a fact, "Laying the Lumber" hurts just as much as getting hit with it. All that padding does minimum protection. You're gonna feel it in the morning and a few days after, lol. All of these players have strict regiments of body care just to get ready for each week. Spending thousands of dollars a year to be in the best possible shape that can be in.

[@vinnietalarico9007]

At the 320 start of the play you mentioned a big guy being tackled. That's Jerome bettis, former Pittsburgh steelers running back. That was an Era of my favorite football team that I miss.

[@joshc.6706]

Great video. Also that clip at 3:17 and it was mentioned how the guy he tackled wasn’t small either. The guy that was tackled was Jerome Bettis. A NFL hall of famer who had the nickname due to his size and power “The Bus”. Just goes to show how much power and force are going into any one of these hits.

[@donmeyer3541]

Yea... "The Bus"... Most defensive players especially Defensive Back or Corner Backs absolutely hated trying to tackle him. All he did was run at you full speed and lower his shoulder. They said it was like getting hit by car. That is why they were always told to try and hit him low and from the side if possible. Otherwise it would hurt getting hit by the The Bus.

I’m currently a freshman in high school and to answer your question, a lot of hits hurt from the collision alone but it’s always worse for one person involved than the other depending on technique. A good mindset I like to have is that if you get into the highlights make sure you’re the one making the play not the other way around.

[@livetotell100]

As a 6 time Super Bowl champion Steelers fan, you should watch some of the hits during a Steelers/Ravens game. It's brutal. Those two teams respectfully hate each others guts. Usually one or two players need help off the field during the game. If you want to see a real hit, watch the 2008 AFC Championship game, Ravens at Steelers. With around 3 or 4 minutes left to play, the Steelers Ryan Clark leveled the Ravens Willis McGahee. It caused a fumble to seal the game for the Steelers. Both players didn't get up for a few minutes. McGahee needed to be taken off in a stretcher. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6nbm4qGmq6qrqM Enjoy.

You should watch the highlights of the one of the most vicious players that ever played the game - Dick Butkus - Chicago Bears. The man was feared by entire teams - he specialized in intimidation. The only other player I would put in his league is Jack Lambert - Pittsburgh Steelers. Lambert was another man that players and entire teams feared - he was brutal. Both Butkus and Lambert played middle linebacker and viewed the opposing players as enemies when on the field - no mercy - they wanted to hurt. No one wanted to run up the middle or cross thru it - they knew the freight train was coming. I remember a game where Lambert hit the running back straight up - picked him up and pile drove him into the turf - and stood over him - daring him to get up...

Hey Nadine. Just wanted to answer your question. The tackler isn't normally the one who gets hurt. The notable exception is if they're a rookie who hasn't worked out their tackling technique; like a high school athlete or below. In training, you're taught to aim and hit in such a way that your body can withstand it. It's called Form Tackling. But if it's just a kid who's new on a team and doesn't know their limits on the field, they do sometimes hit or land awkward.

It is the best feeling when you hit somebody like that while in a game and you hear the crowd go oooooooooo

Being from Cincinnati Ohio I love how you guys were rooting for the Bengals.

I’m not a bengals fan but I’m pulling for them just for your son. Nothing better than having your team win. I was a huge 49ers fan back when Joe Montana played 😁

I've loved the Bengals logo since the first time I saw the 1981 AFC Championship.

As a DIEHARD Baltimore Ravens fan I gotta respect Denzel's love of the Bengals. He was there when they didn't have Joe Burrow. And as a division rival, best of luck this season! We'll be seeing yall.

Hey NZ family…the guy delivering the hit on Reggie Bush at 4:24 is a buddy of mine from high school…Sheldon Brown.

I know from playing the game for 9 years, that you never feel the game until your at home trying to take your clothes off for a shower and can’t lift your arms, some hits are nasty but most don’t hurt until trying to get comfortable.

"Running full speed and not expecting it is just the worst possible situation" yes...yes it is 😂 6:48

Hey NZ family!! Coming to ya from Utah! Love y’all’s content and watch as often as I can. I am also going for the Bengals! If my team (Saints) don’t make it then I usually go for the underdog. Hope they can pull it off since they haven’t been in 34 years! Hope y’all have fun watching the game! Will try and join the live!

My husband was born in Cincinnati, and our two sons were born a little north of there in Dayton. We are also big fans of the Bengals. One of our sons is completing a masters degree from University of Cincinnati.
