These are undoubtedly strongest💪 men on planet It's very difficult to be excel in so many events - strength, stamina, endurance, skill everything is tested here
I think that the decathlon as it is has a place just because of tradition. But one could easily imagine a decathlon that is more varied, maybe also thinking beyond athletics, for example borrowing disciplines from crossfit. For endurance, one could include rowing, which is more taxing on the whole body, not only the legs.
People who claim 'Crossfit' is the ultimate test to measure one's fitness has clearly never seen or heard of decathlon. These people are by far (IMO) the most well-rounded athletes in the world.
Tbf, Crossfitters do a LOT more strength than these guys and it's really apples to oranges. But I disagree as CF'ers can do anything these guys do, just slower, while decalethes will struggle to even complete the CF disciplines at the CF games, such as handstand walks and HSPUs etc.
@@barath4545 That is wrong. If you think a crossfitter can throw a javelin but a track and field athlete cant do a handstand (walk) than you are definetly a crossfitter yourself because its obviously bullshit.
@@Flairis Why would it mess with the body? It will only make you healthier. Sure, you won't become the best at either short or long distance that way but you'll be a better and healthier athlete overall.
Warner could have won bronze in long jump with that jump. He also could have helped Canada to a national record in the 4x100m if he ran it, 10.12 is seriously fast.
THANK YOU!!! I was wondering why they didn't consider him on the 4x100. His intelligence is off the charts. I'm sure he would've been great with a baton exchange. I was so disappointed that it wasn't considered.
@@temp850 He could be the modern era Carl Lewis. 9.86 would have been a possibility for him if he specialised in the 100, 8.87 is out of this world. He'd probably be an 8.45m jumper.
The decathlon takes so much out of you physically - probably just conserving energy to not do the other events. Especially with the 1500m being the last event.
Damian Warner is awesome. He’s the first Canadian to win a gold medal in an Olympic decathlon. The day Warner won his gold medal, I had insomnia and was able to watch the whole thing!

Got to take your hats off to these guys, the sheer amount of training and time is incredible same with the heptathlon, there are very few kids that take up multis just because of the hard work you have to put in from a relatively young age
BY FAR the hardest of these disciplines must be the 110m hurdles! Imagine the fear of tripping and ruining EVERYTHING after so much work and effort already spent and you STILL gotta be fast to be competitive!
@@KW-wr3xvyou get 3 tries with pole and high jump at least, and with 110 hurdles is you trip over one, you're most likely tripping over the next and then the next because they come so fast
While the discipline is probably the most exciting in story telling, skills involved and after video editing, it's crazy long to witness live: all the sprints have several heats of 8 athletes each which takes quite long, but the throws and jumping contests also takes several hours each to be completed
I am seeing a lot of debate on ‘CrossFit’ and ‘decathlon’ here is my opinion. They are 2 different things! Yes they both consist of many events, however they just are different. CrossFit includes a lot of weights and stamina which is why they are a lot bigger than athletes, because they don’t have to run and sprint as much. This can be compared to the decathlon where nearly all events require sprinting. This is why there are stereotypical body shapes on each sport. Let’s admire both sports for what they are and not disregard any due to the other, they are both unique in different ways.
yep decathlon is basically 9 disciplines requiring explosive strength + 1500m (usually sacrificed a bit in the training because training it loses you explosivity) so the skillset is completely different
This is such an amazing sport and even better if you see it live. If you ever have the chance to come to the Götzis Hypo Meeting take it. You can get as close to the athletes as possible. I kid you not there was once 25cm between the javelin and my face. All of these athletes deserve way more recognition for what they are doing.
These guys are best. Real strong, balanced, talented. Swimming is missing. Otherwise tests everything of human strength. Like Indian CSE jack of all master of none.
People don't realize how hard is to improve on 10 events and trying to improve the weaknesses. Especially for example if you are a massive athlete with fast twitch fibers trying to improve for long distances and the other way around.
Totally agree with you there. Ash wins the first ever medal in Decathlon at the Olympics for Australia. The previous best performance by an Australian decathlete, 6th place was back in 1948, along with many other firsts. And yet the media don't run with that story.
