Ma Long & Timo Boll - Interview!

Hi, I finally finished editing the interview. It is from 2018, but I tried to ask some of your questions to Ma Long.
Sorry for the sound, didn't have good microphones back then.
If you want to learn more about insider table tennis knowledge, have a look at my project Timo Boll Webcoach. There I try to give all my knowledge about table tennis!

I was deeply impressed when I witnessed Mr.Timo Boll friendly paid his after-game signiture time to the last one of his huge fans waiting in long line to see him at 2018 World Tour Grand Final in Incheon, Korea. Respect to his personality with true humanity for his fans!

[@michaelp9061]

You both are my heroes. Never knew this interview existed.

[@viktorseifert9494]

Oh my gosh I had no idea this existed. Two legends of the sport! Edit: I never expected Ma Long to be so humble and funny (maybe because his sheer sill is so intimidating on the table).

[@Paddl897]

Ma Long wirkt ja echt sympatisch. Interessantes und witziges Video. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass Ma Long so viel Humor hat, wo er doch an der Platte sehr emotionslos wirkt. Zusammen mit dem Gespräch mit Harimoto mein Lieblingsinterview. Mach weiter mit deinen tollen Videos und viel Erfolg nächstes Jahr bei Olympia!

[@87Avantgarde]

I have nothing but love and respect for these two amazing table tennis players, athletes and human beings ❤️

[@classicsidepart1477]

Can we please take a moment and cherish the awesomeness that is gathered there in front of the camera????? Insane to see these two giants of our sport talking about their ways of playing and training like if they told you: "well yeah... I just bought a cappuccino." Great, great video and a superb display of international camaraderie.

[@tonahi]

こんなに素晴らしい動画を本当にありがとう！お2人が世界のトップで活躍され続けることを願っています。 Thank you very much for this great video. I hope Long and Timo continue to play top of the world. from one of Japanese fan！

[@nishantupadhyay01]

Got to learn a lot of humility from Timo Boll in this interview, a quality many sportsperson miss nowadays, especially those who are at regional/local stage!

[@matiasprieto7933]

This right here, ladies and gentlemen, is something legendary!!

[@ananthahegde8476]

Thank you so much for doing this! You two seem to get along very with mutual respect for one another! You're my idol too, and I think in one of your interviews about playing fair, you said " Table tennis is my true love, and you don't cheat your true love" , that inspired me a lot and I was able to apply that to other spheres of my life as well, thank you!

[@sisheng1619]

Loved it! Thank you so much for this Timo!! I just love how Ma Long is so sweet and soft-spoken off the table but impeccably strong on the court, amazing guy. Would love it if there's an opportunity for you guys to do another interview with him this year lol

Wonderful interview (and all the web lessons I am seeing lately). Thank you for using your place inside the top of the sport and sharing what's it's like to be there (and sharing your friends who are 'up there' with us too). I think we, out here, daydream about times like you are having, and your sharing of them in your videos helps make our dreams feel more real. Stay strong! Be happy! (ps... I write this as you are fully immersed in the Olympics so I cross my fingers that you find good fortune through the rest of the matches!)

[@matiasavendano8681]

Timo you are really an inspiration for us, looking forward to see more of both, greetings from Peru

[@kylem4269]

I am very happy you made this video. It was a pleasure to see.

[@Lightzy1]

Amazing that you did this, just amazing. I'm blown away. I especially liked where you didn't ask him about himself, but about something outside of himself, that way we can really hear what a person's thoughts are. I think people open up more that way, like for example you can ask "What do you do yourself to train", getting a closed answer like "I do 1 2 3", or u can ask "What do you think are some of the most important training exercises and why?", which I think will lead to more open and informative answers, which also include the 1 2 3 but a lot more.

Oh my, this video is literally made for me, as a Chinese who understand English, I could just listen to this and do other stuff, but I have to watch it again bc MA Long is way too cute, I have to watch his facial expression through out this interview:) Love during this interview, they seem like they could sort of understood each other just by a few words and hand movements. Thank you for making this interview, I have been watching u guys playing table tennis for many years now both live & recordings. LOVE love ur skills, styles and performances, wish u both well and healthy, so that u could both keep playing (a bit selfish there), it's a BIG pleasure to have u both in this industry:)

They are the role models of the real SPORTSMAN. Both are loveable and marvellous. My all time favourites.

TIMO & MA LONG both of you are my best TT Players and Legends; one from the German and the other from the Chinese School. Both of you are humble, modest, very polite and challenging at the same time. All TT fans worldwide will respect you, follow your guidance and remember your games and playing skills for years to come. Best Regards from Egypt, where this sport is getting more popular now.
