I commented before you Nick😅
@@joshualarsen8306 I love the early squad!!!
Do a combat boots or cowboy boots mile, that would be funny
Sup nick, you inspired me to start a 30 day workout I started it like 5 days ago, I can see that I'm improving.
I also gave myself a goal for the 2 mile of 15 minutes, but I'm using an app to measure my distance and the fastest I can do a mile right now is in 9 minutes 46 seconds. I am only 13 but I'm pretty fast and my stamina is okay so i dont know if it's a problem with the app or me, anyways I love your videos.
“It was the dumbest thing I’d ever seen
So I got a pair for myself” -Only nick
and me, but i cant afford them
😁😁😁
This is why he is the best fitness/entertainment channel 😂
M. T. How much are they
Andy Olsen 190 -210
Try wearing heelies, those will get you there forsure
heelies defy the laws of physics
The first and only time I wore heelys I went down the ramp at my local mini mall and ended up breaking the speed of sound. That type of speed is too powerful for someone like me
That's solid content honestly
I was hoping someone would recommend this first thing I thought of
Last time I wore heelies,
You know the water jugs with the small cap to let water in? I fell onto that, on my back. I'm lucky I didn't break my spine
i like how bionic nick can run a mile faster than me while i sit here and like my own comment smh
I liked your comment too!!!!
Nick Symmonds likes mines to
I ran my best mile this year at 42 y/o. 8.25 minutes. I hated running when I was younger...I couldn't get into it.
U missed a huge opportunity to call him BioNick
I would have to be near my prime but I could beat bionic nick however his normal race would kick my ass
Just remember that this is the guy that came 5th in the 800m in the 2012 Olympic Games
dang, is he just not able to run as fast anymore? Cause a 6:30 mile isn't very fast, And I can't imagine those shoes would really slow you do that much
@@QueenGlory13 maybe hes somewhat out of shape or the shoes mess up his form or balance i dont really know 😅
@@QueenGlory13 they look a bit heavy
@@QueenGlory13 it's the shoes. Look at his other videos.
And this is the guy who’s profile picture is an among us character
I imagine him in his peak years, goofing around like this
too risky!!
Too risky for WRs he bout to break all of them
Rumor is this video took 4 years to film. Nick had to recover from 7 broken ankles in the process
ha!!
LOL...
Lol
Whaaaaaa???
Try doing a mile in roller blades
I can go under world record pace in roller blades, but I have to bust my ass to do it and I've been skating since I was a kid. It's amazing how fast these elite runners move.
@@Ricciuto1980 I agree. I have the K2 110s and though they are very fast. I average sub 4min per mile over 10 miles. Thats about what an Olympian averages lol. They are fast
@@Ricciuto1980 then you are slow toller blades are so much faster
vxVexom yeah but maybe not on a track like this
@@fighter-yo3di on a track like that i Think its impossible
- 200m in 50 secs - yeah guys it’s alright I’m learning I can still beat the record
:D
How to run a 3:43 mile (without being Hicham El Gerrouj):
- Super steep downhill 1 mile road
- Be followed by 1 or more vehicles with industrial sized fans giving you an obscene tail wind.
Austin Culver challenges requires you to be alive at the bottom, not dead :)
Also a car in front to prevent head wind lol
I was gonna suggest this minus the wind part, but I like that as well.
You forgot the hardest to achieve requirement
-do not fall
Sounds legit . Resistance training . Muscle memory.
Agreed. Cognitive validation of confidence.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, put the alphaflys on the stilts. Record will go down no problem.
😂👍😂👍😂
It sounds too squishy to me 😂
Did you hear? Nike is making a pair specifically for Kipchoge with 26.2 mile stack height. All he has to do is fall over, and will likely break the marathon record
But, I would gladly take another video of him falling on his face 😂
@@turnermerritt7960 I almost spit out my food reading this comment, thanks for the laugh ✌️
Can't wait to see him wear shoes made out of rungum 😄
Nick symmonds needs too do the 800m and everyone where's the shoes next and races with them
“Where’s” lol derp
Him running a mile: I’m having so much fun
Me running a mile: this is the worst day of my life
Next week I’m breaking the flip flop 100m wr ‼️
CRUSH IT!!!
Sounds like hell lol
It will be tough 😂😂
You should try the high heel 100. They guys time is legit slower than the girls time
Trevor Carey 🤔 coming soon
Imagine nick racing a 400M except barefoot on legos 🤣
FRACTURED RIP! Ouch, I can't your still out here pumping out content.
Nick how are you still training?!
I think it was just a joke
Find a mile-long straight of those conveyor belts at the airport that move you forwards and 3:43 is yours!
This guy puts so much work into his videos! Lovin’ the new content lately! Keep up the good work!
If by “setting the world record” you mean “Staying upright” then yes that is possible.
Great video!!!
Disclaimer : the video was published 1 minute ago so I didn't watch it yet but I'm sure it's gonna be great as usual !!!
ha!! thanks for the love!!!!
Next month, nick will find another pair of bionic shoes, and he’ll try to break the world record again. I’m calling it right now!
MAYBE!!!!! :D
Naruto style run for the mile? I did this looking like a weeb but got a 6:45 mile.
Lmao i did the naruto run for the 400 meter dash and got first place
@@bruhmoment14 lol
Bruh moment
Just got my trial pack last week! Cool to know that you personally pack each trial pack. The gum tastes great and I’ve used the head band more times than I can count already! Great video as always man!
Thank you for watching this video and thanks for giving Run Gum a try!!!
I want to be an athlete
Also me:Eating 5 boxes of pizza every weekend
That looked much less painful than with the stilts! In the decathlon last summer (age 56) my 1500 meter time was 6:31, so converting for distance, I'd have been right beside you all the way in this race brother! #miserylovescompany :-)
My best last year was 6 minutes. I’m 40. Can do 5 in 40-45
Good thing those are shorter so you don’t hurt yourself 😂
The only reason why I got this is because it does like 80% eases your knee joints with the cushion of impact the spring. The impact is so light on your knees, like you are pedaling a bike.
“They were the dumbest thing I have ever seen I just knew I had to get them” spot on.
Because of paralysis I wear braces that don’t allow me to bend my ankles. I considered getting these to give me a possibility of running again but reviews said they break pretty quickly.
2:32 me when I try and run in a dream
Nick i would love if you did more race recap videos as well, those were dope!
Coming soon!!
@@nicksymmonds yo lets gooo!!
That is the most perpendicular lean I have ever seen! HAHA!! Love how you can do a mile in those shoes only 14 seconds slower than i can do a regular mile.
Nick's time in the jump shoes is basically my fastest mile time right now in tennis shoes...wow. I wonder what it would look like to see Nick run a mile as fast as he can in normal shoes but do it backwards...
Once upon a time I ran 1000m in somewhat 3:20 with these. Was pushing quite hard, but not to the max limit. My all-in 1000m with normal running shoes in those days would be somewhat approx. 2:50-2:55.
Basically my feelings were that it is possible to get significantly more speed out of the rebouncing system overall, but both it requires quite a bit of practice at higher-than-race-pace speed and most of all the springs have to be adjusted for the specific speed. So that the stiffness of rebounce at 4 mins/km shall be completely different to that at 3:20 and faster - if it is too soft, you waste both time and energy while struggling to bring your leg to the front from the rearmost position. But if it well-tuned you can make the spring actually to push you forwards at the right moment.
Anyway, nowadays still use these shoes for alternative training exercise and I consider them way better than most alternatives, e.g. skiing, cycling, rowing and so. In my opinion, they fill this niche extraordinary well.
What brand did you buy them from?
@@The_ZeroLine Mine were/are from "Kangoo Jumps".
And he still managed to run faster than me in the mile, congrats, thats crazy
Nick "bionic man 2.0" Symmonds
It'd be cool if you consulted a physicist and with their help designed your own bionic shoes specifically to break the mile world record
Man, Nick doesn't give up...inspiration!
I run outside in my all the time and I can run WAY faster in them then I can without them. They are great for running and for working out in. I would recommend these for anyone that want a fun, challenging way to work out
Nick: sees something stupid
Also Nick: I must buy them and run in them!
I just HAD TO!!!!
Nick Symmonds yay I got a reply from Nick, love you even though you spell ur name wrong lol
His bionic mile is faster than my regular mile. Thought my 7:29 was decent for an effort but that 6:49 bionic is crushing.
Still decent! Keep up the hard work Justin!!
I’m 14 and my fastest mile ever was 6:05. And I felt like I was about to die after completing it. I’ve never felt so fast in my life. I don’t know how I’m these videos and other videos kids that are younger say that they ran miles in 5 or 4 minutes. They clearly haven’t ran a mile in their life. Running is WAT harder than you think. Especially when the sun is strong. That REALLY slows you down.
@@chainbreaker2362 Kids run 4:45 in my hs
@@chainbreaker2362 Considering the world record for the mile run for HS is within .2 seconds of 4 flat, they are just lying. If they’re saying 5 mins or somewhere in sub 5 and they’re ACTUALLY real cross country competitors, then it makes sense. But to say 4, nope.
“Dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.....................................so I bought these jump shoes”
Pulling out the Caddyshack quote! “So I’ve got that going for me... which is nice” awesome!!!
Nike sees these shoes
1 year later: the spring fly’s ultra bouncy new marathon shoes
Pls like this so nick sees
😂
I don’t see it funny so I will not like
Hahahaha! "I'm going to have to pick it up to get back on pace."
Once some time ago a sprinter named Justin Gatlin tried to beat Usain bolts 100-meter sprint by using ginormous fans to propel him. Maybe if you did that on the straightaways you could shave some time off. Don't know how much this would really help but who knows.
Who needs a trampoline when you can have these!
Thank you for all your videos during quarantine!! Brings me joy every time
thanks for watching them!!
This is awesome, very respectable time. I’d like to see you try the WR running backwards. RunGum sounds awesome can’t wait to try it!
love the energy nick. Thanks for all the great videos
i was secretly hoping he wouldn’t best my mile pr wearing those things 😅
Oh wow! The new Vaporfly prototype!
That's pretty crazy, a slow mile for him is probably my fastest mile
Very, very Downhill mile in alphafly’s with a natural tail wind, and someone driving behind u with the worlds largest fan at ur back
He'd likely fall and die.
When you trying out just field events
soon!
@@nicksymmonds I'd like to see you high jump, triple jump, and long jump in these! 🤣
“I’m not buying it”. Well looks to me like you bought a pair 🤣
“It was the dumbest thing I’d ever seen...I knew I had to buy a pair” My exact reaction.
I bought a pair and I think they are fun fun fun! Makes you feel like a kid! Lol
Gg, Oregon bro. I'm from Coos Bay. In USMC boot camp I did the 3-miler in 20:50, About your pace there. Carry on, man.
As a futurist sci-fi author, I want to see these under our Marines of the future. Kangaroos integrated into an exoskeleton, so carrying a full kit & plates, the weight is seriously mitigated.
Nick you should sky dive a mile above the track and parachute down to your new world record
How does nick only have 240k subs, this channel is awesome
Thank you!!!
This is pure great content. I bought a scale, loaded a bunch of “How to treat/avoid Runners knee” in my RUclips playlist. Have still cramp from nasty hamstring injuries. That’s all for this week. Next week: plan the start of exercise and stretch. No overdoing here 🤠
I like all your videos. Every time you come with different concept I look forward to.
The channel is growing really quick, awesome! 1M coming soon. I want to try and beat the 400m in crocs record ;D
One twist and ankle will personally come out to say hi.
Your whole house could be a trampoline with these
Your feet are spring loaded-- Lateral arch, Medal Arch and transverse arch. They are ¥our tires and from the rear you cqn see how obviously out of alignment they are. Especially when you drive off of your toes and retract them. What that means is that from the inner attachment at the sit bones, through the adductors, then through the medial popliteal (behind the knee) and down through the medial ankle to final attachment to the metatarsal, (mid-foot) your musculature is TIGHT! It can be extended and balanced in the OFF SEASON by doing a modality called ROLFING. So, your feet are your tires and your knees are your head lights and you want them to focus straight ahead, in the direction that you are going, for efficiency of wear and tear and to minimize fatigue (from having to fight your self to flex and extend. Not to dissuade you, it is not cheap, but you may be able to find one or two people to give you a kind of scholarship or cut rate. This involves a commitment of (7 minimum) to 10, one hour, plus or minus sessions. Each session has to focus on a different part of the bodies "facia" and with your assist can extend and "balance" each segment of the body. They look for an overall balanced line, (up and down) Horizontalized girdles: pelvic, shoulder and cranial girdles (Taking out the tilt and torque, that happens from birth, improper alignment, and or trauma). Look it up, check it out and good luck. The modality is called ROLF or ROLFING and one who does it is a ROLFER.
Well, you asked: I reckon that a mile in under 3:43 should be pretty easy using a bicycle :-)
This isn't just a throwaway remark, it is worth considering why almost anyone can do a sub-4 on a bicycle.
1) Gearing, you are taking very long paces
2) Freewheeling
3) Lifting almost no weight.
(3) is where the jump stilts fell down. A bicycle is quite heavy, but you only lift the pedals. (and those are linked and balanced, so don't even count)
If you want to break the record, I think you need a crowd and competition. Trying running a race like the Macklind Mile where you have an officially timed course where everyone PRs.
Would be interesting to see a training series where you set a timed mile goal and train up to it
USA
These are the dumbest things I have seen.
Also USA
I have to get these.
AMERICA!!!!!!
@@nicksymmonds I want to become a 400 and 800 meter runner. But I always lose my motivation after a certain point mainly because I don't have a trainer. It's so difficult 😭
@@maheshnaik561 just stick with it, if you find joy in Running just go have fun. And Google workouts and do your best.
@@maheshnaik561 Indian?
@@jonithantony7603 yeah bro 👀
Nick is my favorite youtuber
Bro your insane at every subject when it comes to running, even with those jumpshoes on!!😎
Hello Nick, as a Moroccan i'm glad the record has stood after this incredible attempt... a lil more practice in high altitude and u blow the record hahaha
Lol
When you try to get your inner kangaroo
nobody:
my delivery compamy: 1:08
jimmy's got some new shoes
ya'll might be too young for this reference lol
That first clip... totally looks like how I feel running in my vapor flys
The white and gold colors on those shoes are dope
Nick low key getting a lot of people buying these
These look so funnnnn!!! In looks I think of Roller blades & hoola-hoops! Lol 😂
Glad u didn't beat my PR(5:05)wearing those lol
Nick should try doing distance in sprint spikes and distance spikes in sprints
No one:nothing
Wish delivering packages=1:08
Found this channel about a month ago and just love Nick’s positivity and inclusive attitude! We need more people like you man keep up the great work👏
Rocket boots oughta do it, I’m sure that you tuber that does all the crazy engineering stuff can hook you up.
What about the fastest mile skipping. It seems like an underrated way to get around.
Those look so heavy to run in like ankle weights
I broke both my ankles just by watching this video.
Run the world record mile in heelies
To break the mile record attack a giant fan to the front of a car and have it follow you around the track!!
Next- these with jeans and a basketball
The last ones were stupid but these are legendary!!!
You should add a bionic mask to your suit!! Hahah
Those hurdle drills...too ez for taller Nick
Hi Nick. I am 60 now and my tired old knees aren't race able any more. I can barely plop along, a far cry from when I ran a 152.2, 800 for Sac State in the late 70's. Funny thing though when I am at Costco and pushing (running) the shopping cart through the massive parking lot to my car I am really light on my feet, almost sprinting with no pain whatsoever. I just put my torso weight on the shopping cart handle and get an incredible turnover rate with my feer. Wouldn't be surprised if I cover 400 in about 60 seconds. That said, I bet you could push a cart on a road mile in 3:42 ish with your amazing speed background.. Just saying. :)
According to the shoe maker themselves it's "THE HOTTEST FITNESS TREND" How could I have missed this!?
Most people: These shoes are dumb; I’m not getting them.
Nick Symmonds: These shoes are dumb; so I got them.
I love how you refer to yourself in the third person in your titles
They made another version for athletes and heavier people. Try those, i bet the regality will have less collapse and more spring
