T'was the DAY BEFORE the CrossFit Games (CHECK-IN Behind the Scenes)

[@AndyOutdoors]

RIP Lazar. He was one of the team, always a bright moment in a video.

[@johnturnbull94]

Lazar’s big smile peeking round the curtain 🥲 I hope his brother is okay, and his family. ❤️

[@melanie.velazquez]

Craig you capture all the iconic moments. Thanks for providing the footage of Lazar. 9:38

[@liamwilson275]

8:15 i think is the time stamp

[@cepheus03]

Knowing what we all know now. Thank-you for giving us all something to smile about today, however brief it may be. Thoughts are with the Legend Lazar and family

[@UlissesGuevara]

This video makes a strong impact after the tragedy, seeing Lazar's big smile puts things in perspective. I hope that his family and the whole community will find peace and that this experience will help us to appreciate what is really important and to live in the present. Love to all of us.

[@JPats36]

Sad sad day! I got to know Lazar through you guys. Also I feel for his brother. I'm sad and I can only imagine how you guys and everyone else around crossfit must feel. Lazar you will be greatly missed!

[@WayneGlass1]

I know you knew and loved Lazar. I am so so so so sorry, Craig and Jas.

[@Derick.All-Time]

I discovered Lazar through this podcast and I can easily say he seemed like such a genuinely kind person. Devastated at the news today😢 Thoughts and prayers to his family, friends, competitors and to you Jas and Jack.

[@warwickbothma3065]

Devastating news about Lazar. Craig, you've made him feel like a friend over the years of videos I've seen. Tragic. I'm hoping that you can get more of an understanding into the days events and update us legends watching from afar.

[@grail25]

Today's news about Lazar hit me hard. My thoughts are with his familly and friends.

[@ShawnIsBatman]

Your team has produced some impressive and meaningful content over the years, however, this series has set a new standard for excellence. The much maligned CrossFit Media Team has no excuses, you have provided them an absolutely perfect model for how you produce meaningful and memorable content.

[@richdoingstuff]

So sorry to hear about Lazar. I just finished watching this video and heard the news. I've met him once before in Cookeville and he was incredibly nice. My thoughts go out to everyone associated, especially his loved ones.

[@ruthturnbull3802]

Absolutely great vlog again Craig, I am so sorry to hear about Lazar, I know ye were all such good friends. So lovely to see him included in the vlog and his poor brother Luca...😢 he must be devastated.

[@amandawhelan1896]

praying for Lazar

[@MrBeeMeR320D]

same here... seeing him pop out from that curtain, smiling as always gave me goosebumps... Shame on Crossfit for letting this happen and also shame for lacking with updates!!!

[@stuartmills299]

Very sad

[@jeffhickey78]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Craig and Jas. I bet you were close to Lazar. I hope you and all those close to him are doing okay.

[@lillilblurkin]

This video hits so different after everything. Just in disbelief. I dont see a way that the games continue this year! Absolutely tragic first day.

[@DWHGWIHW]

I literally just started tearing up and had to stop the video when Lazar popped out from the curtain 😢 💔 RIP Biggest heart and biggest smile for sure. Then seeing his brother right after and just imagining what he and his family are going through 😭

[@alexf836]

So angry about what happened, Lazar always seemed like such a positive guy, please, please do your part and help hold crossfit accountable for what happened. This was 100% preventable, the video of him struggling with a "safety team" member not 50ft away not paying attention is one of the hardest things to watch ive seen in a very long time. More staff, better staff and better training and he would be sitting at home right now. This should not have happened.

[@chc84]

💯 I hope his family get justice for the negligence of how the event was organised. Absolute tragedy.

[@bronwynharvey6261]

Love the added sass you are bringing to your videos Craig. 👌

[@johnturnbull94]

14:34 though 😂 insane Craig hahaha

[@Mb-yk3xq]

RIP Lazar, may your smile brighten the way in this life and the next... absolutely devestated to hear the news. Never should have happened, we'll see you again brother hugs and thoughts to your brother and family 😭 🪽 🫶🏽

[@veronikgiroux5870]

Loved that you explain the mouvement, the muscles working while your doing that or that mouvement! From Québec Canada I enjoyed your videos!

[@grail25]

@@veronikgiroux5870 on est au moins 2 legends au Qc 😀

[@JPats36]

Sorry to comment again! I can't get over this. I obviously didn't know Lazar at all personally. But at the same time I felt like I knew him. Obviously seeing him on you guys videos multiple times and seeing how such a nice guy both him and his brother are. Also saw him on multiple Mayhem videos, and he was always happy there too. Saw him and Roman going at it in training. Just can't believe this is real!

[@jcashin82]

Super sad news.. my heart sank when I heard who it was, I'm still in disbelief. I have no words.

[@patricelemay1190]

Looove your vlogs ....l visit places that l’ll never go to, with lovely and fun people , always interesting and well produced , your hard work shows....legends...all of you . ❤😊👌

[@UnlikelyExplanation]

Have to say to have done an amazing job advertising Texas! The Texas tourist commission or whatever should sponsor you! I lived in the US for quite a while myself, but rarely made it down to Texas and when I did it was always a work trip so in and out, but will be fixing that very soon recreating some of your trip!

[@brianpike3054]

Jaz's face on the full of meat joke was priceless!

[@cariemurphy-x8w]

Jas, my HSTL Tote Bag arrived today. Absolutely love it. 😊

[@derFribs]

18:45 thats stuff my wife would buy too. I feel you man :D

[@candydicarlo7663]

I’ve been glued to electronics trying to figure out what happened , is it real, this can’t be. I’m shocked and saddened. He was such a legend. I cry for his family and loved ones. The question is what happens to the games? Everyone has their own opinions, but it’s so many things at stake. You want to make it black or white decision. I have been trying to muster to workout for the last 2 hrs and I can’t stop crying just thinking about how he was just taken from the world like that. He was such a light. You’re a true angel now Laz, RIP

[@westte1417]

i got a notification on my phone the moment Lazar came around the curtain, it auto paused the video with Lazar and his huge smile. I had to just take a minute and pray for his family and saved a screen shot of that moment. I only knew of Lazar because of Craig and Jas. I hate this happened

[@Deenocon]

Hearts are with Lazar, his family and our crossfit community. Completely heartbroken :(

[@janinesullivan9958]

Omg 😢devastated for Lazars family ❤

No words, I hope everyone is holding up. Lazar was a Legend

Prayers for Lazar & family 🙏🏼

[@lalampen]

love it. thank you.

[@JPats36]

Funny you guys wore same outfit. We just got back from Disney cruise and first night to dinner me and both my brother in laws wore exact same outfit. We were set up by our wives though. In between Crossfit games I'm catching up on videos I've missed. Trying to stop thinking about how and why this happened. RIP Lazar!

[@Happychica]

Love the Texas content!!! We are looking forward to meeting y’all at the pop up event. Some good bbq recommendations in Fort Worth are: Panther City BBQ, Bricks BBQ, and Goldie’s BBQ.

[@amandalauler6231]

love watching you guys. I hope you are at event one day that i can go to.

Hey Craig & Jas. Just saw the horrible news about Lazar Dukic. Will depend on your channel for real and factual coverage. Thank you for what you do.

[@stuartmills299]

Legends....amazing content

[@JPats36]

How? He's a good swimmer. He was in top 5 towards end. I was watching live stream on KZbin. Even announcers were saying he was doing good then they just stopped talking about him.

[@MrThleckey]

Great series!

We hope that you guys are OK after yesterday.. Can´t even imagine.. Lazar

They are recording the athletes saying their name every year, and every year the same names get butchered by commentary.

Time for the CrossFit organisation to be sued into oblivion and ‘functional fitness’ to exist outside of the grip of that one terribly-managed and negligent private company. Proper sports have governing bodies that run them not private companies.
