Gymnasts try 'OLYMPIC SKELETON' without practice!? {Beijing 2022}

Luke laughing at himself on the GoPro got me!😂

[@samanthaschuck5036]

Same! I kept giggling 🤣

[@Miranda50709]

The Go Pro angle is hilarious. Makes them look like cartoon characters.

[@bouncing_fabricator]

Luke with the GoPro made me howl, he actually looked like the train spotting lad LOLLL

[@Banyo__]

This is going to be such a fun series. I am however confused as to what we should do with all these flying pigs as Ash did not win at something.

[@mattieetheridge1674]

Spoiler damn

[@vp-oe1em]

I'm scared and confused 🤔

[@Loweene_Ancalimon]

I really appreciated the moment for which there were subtitles. Very often I find the music too loud in comparison to the voices, not being a native English speaker, and I really struggle to understand what is being said. I'd appreciate it massively if you put subtitles all the time ! It would also make your videos accessible to Deaf and HoH people, as the automatic subtitles absolutely suck, especially when someone is not speaking in a very clear East coast American accent, or in RP.

[@mariemuller3239]

Omg yessss. So well put. I mean I know that creating the subtitles is more work, but it really helps. Especially because the funniest parts of the videos are often the hardest to understand. And I think we can all agree that we don’t wanna miss those. Their just top tier…

[@Taydelphia]

I agree! Im Deaf here and use a Cochlear implant. sometimes its hard to understand. the automatic subtitles work but not at 100%

[@Loweene_Ancalimon]

@@mariemuller3239 I'm pretty sure Nile has the money to pay for subtitles ! It's what Tom Scott does, for instance, all of his videos have professional subtitles, and it makes such a big difference !

[@amyj4106]

@@Taydelphia OMG same! I love accents, love languages, I have bilateral cochlear implants too but wish there were proper subtitles more often too :)

I’m 37 and I was googling adult gym classes in my area. You’ve inspired me to grab a friend and try my hand at gymnastics. My goal: backflip like you 😉 Not a lot on offer though for adults - I live in Germany. If I were in Leeds I’d be at your gym

yass, good luck!

Okay thanks thanks xx. P

The UK National Lottery marketing department and/or Nile Wilson's agent should be congratulated on this series! Leveraging social media, a medal winning Olympian, and his family and friends to run through all these different Olympic sports at the actual Team GB sport facilities is genius. To meet some of the UK athletes, and see them perform is such an honor for people likely not known outside their sporting arenas. It is also stunning to read that £30M is spent weekly on the National Lottery. And that a portion of the lottery proceeds are sunk back into important, underfunded, national programs like elite and Olympic athletes training programs. I've been watching the Winter Olympics in Beijing 2022, and the USA broadcasters always remind the viewers that in spite of there being no full sliding courses in the UK, the skeleton, luge, and bobsled teams from Team GB are some of the best trained, versatile competitors! Brava/bravo Team GB!

[@helenwoodhead1632]

That looks like a lot of fun! Made up for Luke, he was brilliant at this. The go pro on the helmets absolutely killed me!! Especially when Luke spots himself 😂😂 And Ellis flapping his arms around...brilliant! Excited for the rest of this series!

[@davidf5967]

That go pro angle makes Nile look like Sid from Ice Age 🤣

[@TheTimHall]

Q: Did Ash not do a second run? A: He broke the world record, so you weren't allowed to show it!

[@agneseditsstuff]

of course!

[@ToosieJoie1]

I really liked the up close POV shots. U 3 are fearless!

[@5142Katie]

The helmet camera angles were absolutely hilarious! Nile reminded me of Mr bean with that angle 🤦‍♀️😂

[@scottipmagician]

Ohh that punch-in on the still shot at 1:10 coupled with the "hand-held" movement is continuity and editing gold - I'm talkin' to you Ellis.

[@jonjon296]

I've been on the Olympic track in Riga in a bobsled. Nothing prepared me for that first corner! My whole body compressed and I spent the entire way down the ice track thinking my back was broken. The G force was unreal

[@orfeam2142]

5:38 Since you're gonna fire the person doing your subtitles, I'm assuming that there is gonna be a job opening. So I'm gonna be the first to put my foot in door and say hire me now 🤣👌 I'm ready to work

[@Dan_Kornfeld]

Epic upload! Luke - Have them train you up, and try out for the GB Skeleton Team! “Luke Stoney, Olympian” (absolutely!). Get Ash’ onto a GB team, for the ultimate Three Musketeers Olympians content! (Supported by the National Lottery) Keep doing what you do, dudes!

[@joepalmer300]

Loved this video! Is it me, or does Nile look like Sid the sloth from Ice Age when he's on the GoPro?

[@thomascampbell5146]

Seen you do quite a lot! I think you guys should get yourself down to a track try out the different jumps but would love to see you try out the pole vault, you need speed, strength, spacial awareness and flexibility we use to train by doing the high bar and some gymnastics. So would be pretty awesome to see how well yous would all get on ! Think you’d be pretty damn awesome tbh ⭐️

[@RobNumberThree]

Honestly Luke laughing at his own face killed me 😂😂😂

[@Gamepro2112]

I’ve always wanted to try skeleton, it looks insane yet fun. Unfortunately there’s not any kind of training area for that near me.

I hate those roller coasters that start going hit the top and then start going backwards. That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the sleds start back down the hill.

Seriously, Skeleton seems the most insane "normal" sport there is. I can somewhat get behind bobsled, even ski jumping, it is madness, but at some point it was probably just some norwegians skiing down a hill and trying to outdo each other jumping over a small bump on the hill, 6 meters, 8 meters, maybe 10. But who decided "I gonna take this sleigh and go down this hill head first"? That's the big "holy shit" part of it, going down that ice route at 100+ km/h or something head first with your face just a few cm over the ice...

[@L3m0n_yt34]

Honestly thought from the title that you were going to explore graveyards in wet suits. That angle with the GoPro looked like the head shape of sid the sloth. 😂

Wow, Olympic Skeleton reminds me of when I raced Soap Box Derby cars as a child in the US! Both sports have similarities of going down a hill as fast as you can while lying on a board. Although with Soap Box Derby you are inside a wood or acrylic box with a steering wheel and a brake. You also compete against 1 or 2 others at the same time. This also brings some questions to my mind...if the skeleton racers are not weighing the same as each other per race then those heaviest have an advantage to win. Do racers try to gain weight without exceeding the maximum? Also, are the racers allowed to point their toes while holding their legs out straight behind them? Or are they required to bend their legs up as you guys did? And finally, were my eyes deceiving me, or did the sled bring you guys back to the top of the hill? I truly would love to know this info! Thank you!!! Great video as always!

[@kirkhudson559]

If you have the opportunity to watch the Winter Olympics 2022 in Beijing, you may find the broadcast showing skeleton for men and women happening on Thu. 10/02/2022 and Fri. 11/02/2022! They lay flat, with their heels down, and if necessary use their toes to correct their line of travel.
