- Quidditch, the broomstick-riding fictional sport from the "Harry Potter" series, is becoming an increasing popular real life sport. Learn how to play, and why it's catching on, straight from the mouths of Quidditch players, coaches, and organizers.
seeing people running while holding the broom is hilarious
And very uncomfortable looking
being the snitch actually seems like a pretty fun part lol
That's not a Snitch. You dumb Muggle.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 lol
Say that again but in jail
@@EduTheMan1 you mean azkaban
I was just thinking, being a snitch would be perfect training for parkour individuals
Oh those muggles...
😂
lol
Rasputin?
Underrated comment.
The ways muggles manage without magic are absolutely brilliant !
Glad you approve Mr. Weasley!
ARTHUR YOU ARE THE BEST
This isn't proper Quidditch, Arthur.
like the original but less flying
@@jackieosborne4298 And also less points for ending the game.
This is perfect for me. I was desperately trying to save my virginity for jesus and this will help me do that
🤣
Until Flanders says, “And Harry Potter and all his friends went straight to hell for practicing witchcraft”.
I've been laughing for three minutes now
Such a brilliant comment👏👌🏻
Keep your purity from whores, bro.
I can`t stop laughing at this. It`s just too much. People are actually willing to run around with broomsticks between their legs😂
How do you expect em to fly without their broomsticks?
Dorks
@@trekthehappyturtle454 You think one of them is gonna get their owl from hogwarts after they saw the skilled broom controlls?😂
@@FlyingCircusAct Yeah but look. Im a nerd too. I love harry potter. But dont those people feel ashamed? 😂
@@viennatwntysx6075 nah, they’re just having fun. I only kid really.
Being the Snitch and the Seekers must be the best, imagine all your friends are running around playing this violent game, and your just standing next to your enemy player, desperately trying to figure out how to get the kid in gold down from the roof of the building they climbed up.
That is not a Golden Snitch, and these gombeens aren't Seekers. You know nothing at all about Quidditch.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 that is literally how the real game works people can’t fly
@@xdotolotl5366 No, that's not how it works. In real Quidditch, people fly on broomsticks such as Nimbus 2001, Cleansweep Seven, and Firebolt. In real Quidditch, the Golden Snitch is a golden ball which mimics the movement of a Golden Snidget. In real Quidditch, the Golden Snitch is worth 150 points when caught.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 no that’s quidditch in Harry Potter The REAL LIFE GAME is played like that
@@xdotolotl5366 That crap you see in the video is *not* Quidditch at all. And not just because they've decided to rename it either.
Wait until Ron's father hears about this!
Why ron's?
-SSB-
Because he loves muggles...
He’ll be all over it
😂
Yeah
It will be cool if they invented a broom that can fly
I wouldn't be surprised if they actually invented it soon
Yeah
Until they do, it's 100% false advertising.
They could by using the same system as the real life hoverboard but it would be almost impossible to control
And it would be to expensive
What Comes Next Hunger Games in Real Life?
lol
Well, there's actually a quidditch excercise called Hunger Games. It's mainly a beater drill and basically bludgers and brooms are piled up in the middle of a circle, and it's the goal to get a broom and a bludger and beat as many people as possible, and in the end to remain the only one not beat.
David Klaube its coming...
😭😭😭😭😭
If i can really eliminate the other contestants id play lol aslong as a few where coworkers
I love it! Especially the fact that the snitch just runs around everywhere
Lmao
thats the only aspect of it that i actually like. it sounds super chaotic.
That is not a Golden Snitch! Golden Snitches don't run around, they fly around!
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 and how would they make that work they could use a drone but when it's windy it wouldn't work anymore
Jup i love that
First time heard about real life Quidditch today and had to look it up. Seeing people running around with broomsticks between their legs gave me a good laugh.
I thought we touched the bottom, but we actually started to dig.
This would look pretty fun if you weren't running around with broomsticks
I'm not sure if this is the dorkiest awesome thing I've seen or the most awesomely dorky thing I've seen. Either way I love it.
it’s definitely dorky but awesome, so the 2nd one is correct :)
I wish you could do this for PE at school
That'd be dangerous because you're supposed to fly high up.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 PE is cringe enough
It is official. This replaces hockey as the whitest sport. Ever.
Beth Valerio it isn't Racist though because most British people I see are white...unless they won't allow black people,which is so rude.
(Same with people from the us)
You've ever seen NASCAR race?
Beth Valerio have you ever heard of water skiing?
ever heard of curling?
Clearly you've never played lacrosse
I sincerely hope this game's existence is justified by once - just once - the snitch running headlong into a tree or something and someone immediately shrugging and saying "hmm, I guess snitches do get stitches" and then everyone could put away their brooms and be like "hey guys we did it, the longest stupidest joke setup the world has ever seen, and now we can put the brooms down and go back to real sports"
This should be Top comment 🤣🤣🤣
I was wondering how you'd do the snitch. That's genius! Not sure everyone needs to run with broomsticks between their legs though!
Broomsticks and Golden Snitches are supposed to fly. Bludgers too.
if there is a broomstick with you, it makes the game one handed (like catching the quaffle, etc) and slows you down which is necessary
@@generalkermit6421 well just make the game one handed without having to waddle around clenching a stick against your genitals.
They need to do away with the Snitch altogether. No needs to get some snitch running around & causing injuries to the actual players. Pointless position.
It's the brooms that get me 😂
This is embarrassing on running while holding broom stick 🤣
So there are no rules to the broomsticks? Why have them?
I have got my students at school to nag the PE department into creating a Quidditch team!
Quidditch is a real sport. Its spawned hundreds of teams with thousands of players throughout the world. It was made 11 years ago and been played competitively for 9 years now. The game has blown up.
It needs blowing up. Napalm should sort out this mess.
+Tommy Gun What if they used the Quidditch team as practice for the dodgeball team? Everyone wins!
***(I don't advocate bullying irl, but I also don't advocate actively making yourself a target for them, either.)
That's not Quidditch. Dumb Muggle.
Whats the point of the broomstick?
To look awesome.
+Kamikazeman1234 I'm gonna have to go ahead and agree with this one.
It's meant to be a handicap
maybe if you drop it you are disqualified.
If you get off broom you have to go back to the hoops, same as when you're beat.
Why not create a "Snitch" from a drone technology and have someone control it at hand grabbing altitude, so you dont need a person? wouldn't that make it a bit more "immersive"
As much as this sport is dumb that idea is even less helpful 😂 A person controlling it? That would lead to probably 100% biased wins
So its basicly handball with a broom shoved in your groin ?
Mental
Is the broomstick entirely necessary?
THE SNITCH IS 30 POINTS? EXCUSE ME, THE SNITCH IS WORTH 150 POINTS
Precisely!
Yeah but even Rowling agrees that she wasn't a sports fan and acknowledges that her rules are a bit silly. I mean come on 150 is just too much. It's ridiculous.
No. In the book it worths that much because of it's speed. But these are humans we are talking about. Even with training I expect they get caught pretty fast and it would be too easy.
I feel like the technology will allow this sport to be played just like in the series.
No
@@santiagonaim142 I hope i die before i can see that
Ya except unfortunately people can’t fly lol
This is Hilarious!!!! I can't believe this is real!! I am going to look it up and see if there is a team around where i live!!
They have a team at St Andrews Uni. Yes, that very prestigious university that the Royal family have attended. They play Quidditch. 😂
This confirms Monty Python pridected the future....grown adults playing horsey with sweeping brushes
1:30 "(...)by any means necessary, avoid getting caught"
Quidditch players while having the snitch surrounded "Hehehe , there's nowhere to run!"
Snitch:
_pulls out a handgun_
Lol this deserves more likes
This should be an olympic game ♥️
Dang, now I need to go see one of these matches. This looks entertaining af
Well, it isn't. It's not proper Quidditch you see.
You know who disliked this video.
Ya and also 2 death eaters
The football jocks and cheerleader freaks who think anything that doesn't go to their standard of what's cool should be destroyed?
Muggles
I'm about to dislike for false advertising because this isn't Quidditch whatsoever.
Well this entirely made my day. 😂 the 🧹broom. I cannot. 🤣🤣🤣
Wow!, can’t believe jk Rowling included this sport in her books, I think she should make up her own sport though, seems a bit weird how she picked a sport that already exists.
She actually made up the sport herself, and them people started making real life versions of the game
Ana Garcia
God I hope one or both of you are being sarcastic. Please god please
@@MrDapotpie 😂😂😂
jesus christ
I feel like the broomsticks are a bit... Unnecessary, awkward and slightly inappropriate.
Obviously, we, as real-life Muggles (humans), can't actually fly on broomsticks.
Otherwise, I'd love to play this (Harry Potter) Quidditch-inspired game.
This is *not* Quidditch.
Heinz Doofenshmirtz Did you even read what I said? I said Quidditch-*_inspired_* Just because Witches&Wizards can fly a broomstick doesn’t mean we can irl. It’s just not plausible.
1:35 In the real Harry Potter, it's worth 150 points.
+PetStarPlanet
In the Harry Potter Books and Movies is the only important Thing in Quidditch, which team catches the Snitch.
Thats an awful game Design, but good for heroic moments for Harry.
We arent Harry, so we want an better Game Design. The Snitch is important, because its 3 Goals worth. But not 15.
@@quidditchinzurich8720 Yeah, 150 points is broken
yeah but in harry potter it's worthy of winning the game instantly when the snitch gets caught.
here, it's a person running around. you can't have a team instawin for tagging somebody
Pretty sure even JK Rowling admitted that the 150 point rule was dumb
I wonder how much injuries happen due to this broomsticks?
Directions unclear: my dog is on roof
Imagine a player running towards you while mounted on one of those broomsticks and the wooden handle of the broom hits your crotch area... *oh no.... oh no.... oh no no no no no.....*
If you can't fly the brooms why even have them? You're just gonna embarrass your family.
Exactly! This guy gets it!
This is soooo cool!!! ...... Said no one ever.
They should swap the broom sticks out for hurley sticks and the volleyball out for a slioter (Irish base ball) and then it would be great criac!!
The fact that Rowling thought about this in such a detail just shows how amazing the books really are...
I can't wait to go to college so I can play quid ditch
That's not Quidditch.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 Everything alright with you? Why are you saying this under every comment. You know, that quidditch was never real. This is the "real" version, because it is not fictional.
@@laba1574 No it isn't. For one thing, the Golden Snitch is actually worth 150 points. For another, brooms actually fly. Stupid no-maj.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 I really can't tell whether you are delusional or trolling.
For one, why do you call me "Stupid no-maj"? There is no such thing is no-maj or muggle, just a human, cause there is no such thing as magic. And if there where, you wouldn't be one either, 'cause wizards do not use the internet, as J. K. Rowling herself said, that wizards only ever use really old human technology and have a disinterest in technology. The wiki says that most wizard don't even understand most human technology.
And this doesn't disprove my point. Quidditch was never real, they made it. Therefore is this the real version. The one in the book is the fictional one.
Pretty good video - a bit too rushed, why have to fit it into 2:10? With the rythm and production values it could have easily held the viewer's attention to 3:00, making the narration just a bit less quick paced (some garbled syllables). Some high shots as well as wider shots would have been very helpful for overall explanatory power. Parcimonious use of slo-mo action sequences would also help to break up the pacing, adding to the watchability.
Thank you Tarantino.
Dude just used the word parsimonious without knowing how to spell it. Gotta think pretty highly of yourself for that one.
I’m here looking at this because of that guy in the new season of Hell’s Kitchen. Didn’t even know this was a real thing
brruuuuuh same and did not believe him especially after the editors did him dirty while he was on the broom lmfao
A contestant from Hell's Kitchen claims to be a Quidditch player.
You know I thought the beater hit people
I want to play muggle quidditch so bad!
Then find a team in your area!
I'm joining my local team next year, and I'm so excited!!!
Needed to search for this vid after watching Hell's Kitchen S22 ep 1 🤣🤣🤣
Same here lol.
full body chills, i didnt know you can use magic
Ditch the "broomsticks" and use a onewheel instead. Also attach a tennis ball to a drone for the snitch.
That sounds like a good idea. That would make the no-maj Quidditch closer to the real deal.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 No-maj? You must be American. It's muggles 😂
@@LG1ikLx Well, No-Maj is how American wizards refer to Muggles (see: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them). Just how the French refer to them as Non-Magique (see: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald).
Cool concept, but why would you have a stick between your legs... makes it awkward and only made for Harry Potter fans in my honest opinion 🙄
I think, they were could do with drone ( snitch ball)
Back in 1978 to 1979 they actually showed that in year 2000 to 2021 that we are supposed to actually flying and have robots as maids so this could actually happen.☺😄
Hehe. Looks cool. I wanna play!!!!
1:41 AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I feel attacked.
I am too slow and I blame my old Comet 140, I wish I had at least a Firebold 🤣😂🤣
this is cool how people can take things from books and make it something in real life. though i would lose the brooms makes it look a little silly and slowly you down
without the broom and some rule modification it could be something, the three holes as goals could stay, rules like in handball mixed with rugby
Now called "Quadball" not to be confused with tri-pod
lol. Were playing this at Gym
The snitch player just screaming "Parkour!" as they jump over benches and fences.
Remove the snitch and seeker, and remove the brooms. You have a awesome sport.
If you remove it, there will be on the one hand no handicap (with Brooms its more difficult to catch and through the ball) and on the other hand this is not Quidditch anymore. ;)
There are only four sports: bullfighting, motor racing, mountaineering and Quidditch; all the rest are merely games.
That is *not* Quidditch, you dumb Muggle.
I was thinking, maybe they could create moterozed broomstick noodles for the pool and play on those, with all the balls and stuff?
They should be required to have an "L" tattooed onto their foreheads.
I did not even know this was a thing in real life
It's not. This is not Quidditch (and not just because they've renamed the edition for stupid Muggles).
The tiny brooms are killing me! LOL! But it looks fun so more power to the players!
The broom is unnecessary: 1. the players are not flying and that was the purpose of this item. 2. broom + running = danger!
I Will Seriously Go To HARVARD Just For Their Quidditch Team
That's not Quidditch, dumbass.
It is SO cool that this is a REAL sport now. Brilliant!! 😉👍
It's not Quidditch.
Why didn’t this exist when I was in highschool? I would have loved to be a part of this😄
All you muggles! Copying our every move! 😂
This looks silly and fun at the same time.
one second Hermione.I break that: Alahomoraaa.
Now, they should find away to send the referee to the Sahara Desert. lol
I had a good laugh tonight, I was reading Harry Potter to my kids and my husband is a referee. It says in the book that people don’t usually die, but occasionally they find referee’s in the Sahara Desert.
I'd totally play it!!!!
Voldemort has left the chat
Really tempted to team up with his daughter, ngl. Stupid Muggles.
I heard New Zealand lost the World Cup because the captains mom was late dropping everyone off at the field
sigh....i guess i have to acknowledge golf as an actual sport now......dammit.
This is cool I first knew of this from the movie the internship
You can fly at a broom an a ox-board
That's Victor freakin Krum!!!
For a second I thought the first guy was victor krum
I want to be the snitch!!!!!!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 I am parkouring like mad!!😂😂🤣
As long as the nerds....i means kids are getting outside and having fun not revolved around a tv screen...its all good.
Maybe if there were no brooms
Imagine playing this on a hover board or roller skates. Man that would be painful
This sounds fun, but the pvc pipe broom sticks might pose a safety hazard. Why not get rid of them?
This isn't Quidditch.
Maybe use floppy rubber hoses instead.
can i play?
Thanks for breaking it down for me.
why arent thy flying do they have bad brooms ?
It might be serious sport if they got rid of the snitch
small drone circling the field with a golden ball tied to it with a rubber band that rips easily when someone snatches the ball would be a bit more realistic 😂
This is cool, but I cannot for the life of me understand why not use bicycles? That would be much closer to feeling like you're playing quidditch for real. Along with a golden snitch that is just a small drone painted gold and it would take it to another level.
They could almost be onto something if they just dropped the 'waddling around with a millennial hobby-horse between the legs' thing.
