I am 66 years old and competed on the trampoline in the early 1970's when I was in college. I can tell you first hand that the difficulty of what we were doing back then compared to Dong Dong's, and others in this video is a giant leap. I was extremely impressed!!!
For those who clicked because his name - FYI, his first and last name are different words with different pronunciations in Chinese. And I hope that even if you clicked just because his name, you might have found the video interesting! These are incredible athletes, and the emotion at the end is really touching.
Being a trampolinist myself, my level is just above average (and I've bounced for 5 years now). My maximum allowed difficulty score is 3.9.....Dong Dong got 17.8.....that's insane!!
Woah , my 8th grade avp club was way better than this. They put a 5th grader in charge of taping the event. Everyone knows that you have to change the exporting audio and rewatch it to make sure audio syncs up

Not to mention all the people that get random chinese characters tattooed on them. There's probably more than one person with "kung pao chicken" written on their body.
Not really. "sha-la" is a Chinese loanword of the English word "salad", which, like most Chinese loanwords, doesn't even sound like the original English word, much less Sarah, which is totally unrelated.
Hahaha that's awesome! Not to mention girls getting Asian words tattooed on them without being 1000000000% sure it says what they think. I can only imagine the laughs Chinese, Japanese, Korean people get over that!!
looks bad, actually isn't that bad. never knew anyone to get hurt from doing it, and as a whole trampolining is a lot less stressful on the body than the other gymnastics diciplines
This sport is so dang difficult honestly , even the guy who fell down honestly tried to be honest like to be able to jump this high is completely amazing
many factors like how center they stay on the trampoline instead of moving around on each move, and height of bounce. Legs being close together instead of apart.
Nah - i do this sport too (not as well 😂) and they might fly ofg but they're trained professionals - they have a professional coach and 4 professional olympic spotters - they'll be fine 👌👌
+Pragya Kumari ... The Chinese writing system, Japanese kanji and Korean Hanja are not alphabets but pictographs. The two words have different tones. For example, gong gong gong gong, gong gong gong gong in the Chinese Fujian dialect means grandfather hits his head on the metal tin; grandfather feels giddy.
+Tea Dawg hehe do you know how much they cost? over 10K each trampoline.. i know because my trampoline teacher uses them with us and told us how much they cost, we have 2 of 10K each and 1 cheaper which i hate so much, it's too hard, not smooth enough.
I know this is an old video, but I just want to mention I think it's really sad how many people only went to the comments to make fun of one of the athletes' name. I'm sure it's a perfectly reasonble name where he's from, and these people obviously worked really hard to get to Olympic status. Give it a rest.
Wow! What an exciting series of routines. Just better and better great performances all being outperformed by the next one! This is what the Olympics is all about, just brilliant athletes pushing the limits of humanity :D
So it all comes down on when you make your appearance.If you are 1st you end up with the worst score, if you are last like Dong Dong you win gold Medal...lol xD
"Dong Dong. who is it? Dong Dong . I said who is it. Dong Dong. I think our doorbell is broken. Wait we don't have a doorbell. Oh yeah I forgot, my name is Dong Dong."
Lol. The sound was a little behind from the actual jump. No matter what happends, light will always be faster than sound. The difference is way too much for light to slow down that much when it is traveling
A Dong so nice, they named him twice.
lol

Congratulations to Dong Dong amazing fabulous beautiful performance won the gold medal award. 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Absolutely fantastic. Amazing gymnastic ability applied to the skills of trampolining. Amazing bravery in learning to be the best.
Is it just me or is the sound a bit off?
The sound is off. And i thought it was just me!
MiiAmoure yeah, it is out of sync. many of the videos the olympics has uploaded the sound is off :(
I got rally a annoyed but I still watched
'really annoyed'
Their jumps are so powerful that you can hear the trampoline bumping before they land.
19:29 that lady on the left with binoculars xD

i really love this performance , still good in 2020
Jess Simpson i agree, thought there were some good routines but this was immense, like for still watching in 2020
imagine watching the camera man filming all of this. The camera just going up and down up and down.
Laugh all you want, but Chinese people are laughing at English names too. Especially Sarah, because 莎拉 is literally a salad.

Idk bout you but its so satisfying watching them jump and makes my tummy squirm when they are jumping its so relaxing.
All Dong jokes aside, he did amazing.
Dong Dong at 25:18

i know i’m not the only one who is dying from this name
8:34 the guy with the "hi mum" sign. XD
25:20 Dong Dong's performance.
His routine had everything. Dings, dangs, dengs, and of course, dongs
is it just me or do you cringe every time they finish because it seems their knees just snap😖
Yep that what I was thinking
I keep forgeting cringe means "unbearable to watch" and not just "embarassing"
Cute Werewolf furry it's a new age of tik tokers

watching good looking guys on trampoline while listening to the weeknd on a loop. heavenly
They're doing Dong Dong so dirty with that thumbnail
omg the woman is showing them where to go... i thought everyone ignored her high fives
Me too! I was like that woman is me in every situation!
Omg sameeeeee😂😂😂
Dong dong, spectacular.
Dong dong and ushakov, incredible trampolining mans!!!
i need one of these trampolines at home :)
Exept that they will prob cost alot of money
You can if you have £ 20,000 spare
Same haha
So you can dongdong on it
How come I've never heard of or seen this sport before lol

Thank you so much
Thanks bri
nathaliexlr8 You are the best! I was waiting and waiting.... :)
No problem! :)
U saved me!
OmG! I just realized that this event was just 1 day before Sun Yang's 1500m freestyle world record
can someone explain how they give those marks?? what i saw is all of them exhibited the same posture~how judges judge the number one?
many factors like how center they stay on the trampoline instead of moving around on each move, and height of bounce. Legs being close together instead of apart.
Dong Dong never die.
AAAAAANNND Dong Dong wins the Gold!!!
.....thats what she said.
The wait for the Dong Dong to come on is Long Long.
does anyone else just feel major anxiety watching them 😓 my inner monologue is just screaming please dont fly off or hit the ceiling!
Nah - i do this sport too (not as well 😂) and they might fly ofg but they're trained professionals - they have a professional coach and 4 professional olympic spotters - they'll be fine 👌👌
@@jennasams3698 the thing that worries me is how they finish- their knees look like theyre snapping. Obviously they arent, but its scary!
15:10 probably the sickest flip throughout the whole thing
I came here for the title, stayed for the comments and not once watched the video
Lol same
Came for the video title, stayed for the majesty of trampolining.
Bob Costas managed to keep a straight face when mentioning Dong Dong.
how about his brother, Ding?
***** LOL!!!!!!
***** Don't you remember the One Child policy?
ilikeamazon I do.One famous rich person ( too lazy to remember his name ) in China has a few kids and the gov't find him $ 2 million I think.
the comments are like a time capsule showing how people used to interact in RUclips 3-5 years ago
I admire their knees.
How cool was that Dong Dong guy his flips were amazing right
How do they do that I can't even land a front flip on the trampoline 😂😂
They drink beer and do it 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Before you make fun of his name, it's common to have the same last name as your first in China, and Dong Dong is a very common name
I need one of those in the backyard.
***** I think he meant the trampoline
let`s me show you his Chinese name

What a name
it must suck losing to a guy who goes by the name of "dong dong"
wow you see them jump and 2 sec later you hear the sound it's so cool :)
"Dong Dong. who is it? Dong Dong . I said who is it. Dong Dong. I think our doorbell is broken. Wait we don't have a doorbell. Oh yeah I forgot, my name is Dong Dong."

RyanPlaysGames thats amazing

RyanPlaysGames no mate, i personally am bad at physics. So i really admire those who are good at physics
I once jumped on such a trampoline
and when you're on your highest point,
it's quite terrifying and hard to land
Well Done Done!
Imagine he would have the name ding dong, everybody would think of a bell ringing when his name is announced 😂😂
