@Daniel Falcon - especially considering how deceptively strong she is, she's the least muscular by quite a stretch, be that as it may she's kicking ass.
I watched this whole thing this morning, I have to say I consider myself to be fit.. But when they got finished and were then asked to do it in reverse I was PISSED for them. Such an intriguing watch, and for sure the best test of fitness I've seen so far on the Games.
I was afraid that the cross running would not be brought across well. But this event has been caught up in a very exciting and thrilling way! What a professional camera work and direction!
@@animelover1080 Quite aware of that. It was just a passing comment that that was the only small negative thing about the coverage, whether it can be helped or not..
yea i’m a cross country runner n u don’t wanna drink while running or drink a lot bc you’ll get a water belly then end up having a terrible performance
This game should be all over Sports channel's ESPN this is what's being in shape and being HEALTHY PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY MEANS! the world needs to watch this Sports more than watching garbage on TV! RESPECT every single person what does CrossFit who is in CrossFit who is there right now at the games! What a clean respectful beautiful culture/ community that is 💟🏋️♀️
@@leighbruz9794 I get what you mean but than you have to stop watching everytime you want to know the weight or distance. With the lifting event that was very inconvenient. And for them it wouldn't be that much of an effort
Yeah I know it wouldn't take much for them. I just used a second device, it took me 10 seconds and after a couple of times you start to pick up the conversions
@@leighbruz9794 yea thats handy. I was calculating in my head the entire time. But the crossfitgames are entertainment for the whole world so I think they should put the numbers for everyone to understand at first sight. Just convert the on-screen numbers, that's good enough
For the weights, the plates have the same colours (green 10kg, yellow 15kg, blue 20kg, red 25kg) in imperial and metric, and are essentially the same weight, so it should be quite easy to convert. 1 mile = 1.6km.
As a soccer player and cross country guy growing up in So Cal where we trained on trails like this daily, Matt's downhill game is Wizardlike. Those mincing little steps where he's actually pulling away - what the heck was that?!
In this last event, we're gong to put all of you on two islands, one for the men and one for the women. You will each have a knife. The one who walks out onto the beach tomorrow morning will be the overall winner. Regrettably there will be no 2nd, 3rd, 4th or any other places. Winner take all.......
These guys are really amazing and mad mad mad .... so inspiring i am doing all cross fit work out at level keeping my back injury in mind... hugh fan of this sports...
Toomey was so pissed at the end of the event; honestly, after so many years, she should've expected something like this from Castro. Loved Pearce's positivity!
This event proves the old saying, "adversity doesn't build character, it reveals it". They all finished, and no one gave up. I feel for Brooke Wells, she simply took a wrong turn. But she never quit.
I actively avoided the comments because I knew people wanted to talk about the event in the RUclips comments. That’s what the comment section is for if you don’t want to be spoiled wait until after you have watched the event.
Castro, next year you should make an endurance event inspired by the "fastest known time" (FKT) hiking niche. That is an example of fitness. 4-8 hour race on the PCT as far as you can get! Supplied rucksack and other necessary items. They choose their food and water.
@@marka.6879 I don’t believe that. Mat was also first across the line at halfway and still was able to win when it counted. I think tia just paced it for 3 miles and didn’t have enough to keep the lead. I honestly think that is a great test.
WOW! That was horrendous! Great performance and I loved the face of Mat when he got told that the course isn't over :D I think he would have loved to Punch Castro straight in the face :D
the mental fortitude needed to get done and then be told to go again. I was upset on their behalf! Props to them all! Castro, I think you like to see people in pain!! Matt, true Team Mate!!
Excelentes.competidores, muy fuertes, que bueno ver este tipo de competencias, ojalá hacia suramérica se practicara más esta disciplina deportiva, muy completa.
Maybe battery life. Drones don't fly for more than 20 mins so they'd have to land and put up different ones. Helicopter can be up for like 2 hours maybe
My not much educated guess is that drones would have been better for footage but not for live stream. Not many small and cost efficient drones are equiped for live stream with good quality.
Wow, Matt only needs to average 27 points/event (less than 4th place) in the last 3 events to win the games💪 that’s just ridiculous that someone can be that much better than their closest competitor
Justin and Mat just talking about "Yeah, shouldn't have done that high on deadlift, still stiff" "I hear you, too much on strict press here. Looking forward to tomorrow?" "Yes and no."
Mat filled up Tia’s ice tub for her and had it ready when she got there. He wins the event and then looks out for his teammate! Good guy
I noticed that as well, now that is a teammate
I thought he just hop off it and get more ice but Tia stole his spot.
I know I saw that 😍😍
Can Mat get some brownie points
@@senli8911 No the names were on the tubs, he put the ice in her tub.
Tia did a Debo and said “that’s my ice punk”
Cool seeing the men and women do the same event. These people are ridiculously strong.
Regardless of how many times I watch them compete, I’m still always amazed by how fit they are
Haley, you definitely belong at the CrossFit games girl!
Being Mat I would totally just turn back at the end just to mess up with Medeiros!
Haley Adams is performing like a future champ, so far I think she's gonna see the podium...
Justin I think will get a podium also. Awesome for the youngest athletes.
@@Shrekky7 - I agree, also just 21, and he's strong, fast and I loved his handstand sprint strategy.
Absolutely 🙌🏽, she’s gonna be the future champ
@Daniel Falcon - especially considering how deceptively strong she is, she's the least muscular by quite a stretch, be that as it may she's kicking ass.
Why does castro have a gun? Is he afraid there will be some kind of attack?
Best part 53:34
Mat fraser: my knees, My Knees, MY KNEES
Justin Medereiros: Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I went to that part expecting to hear themselves say it. Not cool
At about 53:34 in the video is when the announcer says it about Mat and Justin. Not at that time in the event.
I watched this whole thing this morning, I have to say I consider myself to be fit.. But when they got finished and were then asked to do it in reverse I was PISSED for them. Such an intriguing watch, and for sure the best test of fitness I've seen so far on the Games.
Did anyone notice how Matt brought Tia a bag of Ice at the end when she was getting into her ice bath? 🥰 A friendship to be admired.
He filled up her bath tub, friendship goals
They train together a great deal.
I was afraid that the cross running would not be brought across well.
But this event has been caught up in a very exciting and thrilling way!
What a professional camera work and direction!
I'm a runner and CrossFit literally covered their run better than most pro running events
Nicely done indeed. Just a bit of a shame about the helicopter sound.
@@Pjotrtje1969 you can't mute that chopper sound in live event
@@animelover1080 Quite aware of that. It was just a passing comment that that was the only small negative thing about the coverage, whether it can be helped or not..
I had to pause the video so they could rest
LMAO
Ha ha ha
What a hero
🤣🤣🤣
And get some water cuz childddddd!!!!! 🥵🥵🥵
Buff people running down a hill needs to be a meme
This is extremely good coverage of the event! Great job and thank you.
The cameraman climbing up the incline with a mask and camera! 💪🏼
Agree and like the variation in events has been amazing too
Matt flipping off Dave was only a matter of time.
Katrin’s mental fortitude is peaking.
I didn’t even catch Mat flipping him off at first. HAHAHA. That’s hilarious
hahaha nice catch
Time stamp please lol
@@steffcee2709 just when Dave told him and Medeiros that it wasn't over yet
Matt giving Castro the finger 32:45 😄😄😄
"Turn around and do the whole course in reverse, this is just the half way point."
Insert *mojo jojo - that's the evilest thing I can imagine* meme 😂
No, it could be worst. They could do the first run, then have to do the exercises in Murph and then run the course back.
THIS EVENT WAS THE MOST EXCITING OF THEM ALL! THE SURPRISE - SHOOK!!
This started as no big deal and now I’m exhausted
True 😂 that’s definitely me when i run 1 mile
But it’s not easy
Castro: "Run the whole course in reverse"
Mat: "chill"
Medeiros filling in for David Hasselhoff on the slo-mo replays. Killin' the look man.
these are the people who inspire me a lot!!! not just by being athletic, but also their mindset. they have the winner mindset.
1:21:52 “If it’s hard for me, it’s hard for them too” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 That’s an amazing mentality to have
33:49 I could only imagine the WTF moment Adler had seeing them
Katrin was super impressive she was loving the twist.
Mat is the goat for a reason
Castro: go again in reverse
Athletes: WHAT?! (Lil Jon voice)
is it me or did they not drink water throughout the whole event? cause i got heatstroke just from watching.
I would have grabbed a bottle of water at the halfway point, for sure.
@@supernotnatural be dehydrated actually destroy their performances
@@supernotnatural i see
yea i’m a cross country runner n u don’t wanna drink while running or drink a lot bc you’ll get a water belly then end up having a terrible performance
It’s a little less than 10k they are fine with no water

RESPECT every single person what does CrossFit who is in CrossFit who is there right now at the games! What a clean respectful beautiful culture/ community that is 💟🏋️♀️
at first when he said run the course backwards i thought he meant like standing backwards!! i was like wtfff
I thought the same thing 😂
so did i haha
That is a cruel surprise!
My dumb ass would've done exactly that if I was the first athlete and the officials would have a good laugh before correcting me.
@@Squidlark same lmao hahaha
Haley Adams is performing like a future champ, so far I think she's gonna see the podium... aye
turn around and run I'm not joking. haha
Castro is a troll.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
@@MC-nv4bo what is this from??
@@sethhall6200 uncertain origin, probably military from about 200 years ago
Castro is a former Navy SEAL so he has no problem watching people suffer.
I wish all the weights and distances could be displayed in both metric and imperial, so everyone could ”understand” what they’re lifting or running...
If only there was a search engine that people could use to find out the answers to questions they have..
@@leighbruz9794 I get what you mean but than you have to stop watching everytime you want to know the weight or distance. With the lifting event that was very inconvenient. And for them it wouldn't be that much of an effort

This was epic! I see why ppl love this sport
It's funny to see Justin Medeiros running against Mat Fraser, while Mat Fraser is running against Mat Fraser :D
This event was sponsored by the Army and the "twist" at the end of this is the most army thing they could have done
Castro: Welcome to the 2020 hunger games xD
In this last event, we're gong to put all of you on two islands, one for the men and one for the women. You will each have a knife. The one who walks out onto the beach tomorrow morning will be the overall winner. Regrettably there will be no 2nd, 3rd, 4th or any other places. Winner take all.......
I honestly wouldn’t believe anything Dave Castro said after a run like that as well. I would only believe it if the Head Judge told me so
Would've loved to have seen Sam Briggs in this event. Sorely missed
And Kristen Holte. It’s weird watching long runs and not hearing their names
Feel like Mederois and Adams will be training partners one day. Remind me of you Fraser and TCT
I hope the rest of the events are like this! This was epic!
Really impressed with Medeiros on this one, great work keeping up with Fraser for so long
I LOVE this event! The imagery, the twist, the test, the grind. Would love to do it as well.
This is a freaking beautiful sport
To watch....
Agreed , and not easy
Great event day, that 3 mile loop text just revealed abit running. Mental & physical strength test was there for sure!
22:25 me every time I run in my dreams
Jajajaja lol

Worth the watch for the Chandler Smith takes...
For sure
So great 😀 to see competition 👏💪 again thank you 🙏🏼 for sharing on U-tube 👍🇿🇦
Man …. No way … This reverse finish is VIOLENT AF ..
Haley is killing it! You definitely belong girl, do your thang! Represent
Here for Katrin 🇮🇸
Same here
Me too! Katrin is awesome! 🇮🇸
Castro, next year you should make an endurance event inspired by the "fastest known time" (FKT) hiking niche. That is an example of fitness. 4-8 hour race on the PCT as far as you can get! Supplied rucksack and other necessary items. They choose their food and water.
Nah fuck that
26:46 Medeiros and Fraser remembered me of Fikowsky at the first event of the 2018 games
32:45 FINGER
In all fairness, you can’t blame him
Diabolical 😅
My moment of the Games so far
My only question is how the women run in heat in short shorts. my thighs would be on fire with chafing honestly.
I thought the exact same thing 😂 like WHAT ABOUT THIGH RUB?? 😭
I am not even a runner and this was my favorite event so far.
Downhill sprinter : mat fraser.
1:00:00 Marz is running with the front of the pack... I think we've seen that before
On that turn.. Are you kidding me
Hell no.... Run
🏃💨🏃💨🏃💨🏃💨
Poor Brooke going the wrong way than obviously realizing she needs to head back...dead last. Haley is killing it! Good on her
Not once but twice 🙄🙏
Just noticed Mat filling Tia's ice bath for her at 1:14:18. What a great team they are.
When the cats away the mice will play..
@@dannywholuv ew no
I'm dehydrating just watching this!
Katrin, amazing attitude and performance. Inspiring!
Katrin was fortunate she got a second chance, gritty and mentally strong but was beaten in the race they thought they were completing.
Tia did not look happy when she finished
Spoiler alert
@@nathanielcolston7770 why are you reading the comments before watching the event. This is where we come to “comment” about the video
It was the top and only visible comment when I clicked on the video.
Yeah, she was robbed of an event win

This is the real test of fitness ! Kudos everyone
Do yourself a favor and watch this at 1.25x 👽
Bless you
Thank you!! 😂

I absolutely love interviews with Katrin!!😍
Oooohhh damn....he pulled the old military ruck move....you think your done but nope. He just needed to offer them a drink and cookies
Really played football with Justin in 7th and 8th grade glad to see you here ! Support from home brother .
Katherine ⚡💯😍!!!
They all aren't human, They're superhuman 👑👑👑👑
super hyped dust and leaves-it looks like a pretty chill run.
Matt gave 🖕🏻when dave said you have to run back the course
LOVE Katrin, she is such an inspiration
Push Harder Noah!
1:21:24 This is why Katrin won the event. Her mentality made all the difference.
Mat is such a beast... Froning deserves his respect, but Fraser is the best to ever do it.
*I pray who ever reads this becomes successfu💝....l And we can all arise*
I would love to do this. This is a test of attrition and mental and physical fitness
I’m so impressed by these humans. I still can’t get behind the low rise shorts and tights though. Running? My shit would slide!
Matt is the Goat.
Im intrigued to know why they still use helicopters. Surely drones are way more cost effective and would give you better shots too?
Maybe battery life. Drones don't fly for more than 20 mins so they'd have to land and put up different ones. Helicopter can be up for like 2 hours maybe
My not much educated guess is that drones would have been better for footage but not for live stream. Not many small and cost efficient drones are equiped for live stream with good quality.
Drones would not have been capable of providing this level of coverage
There were a few drones flying around.
Haley ran this sick and got second! She’s amazing 🤩
extremely impressive how fit they all are,fittest people on the plant
I would have loved to see Castro doing this!!!
Well, he was a Navy SEAL so he's done more than that trail run.
The quality of the video seems a little sub-par, surprised as in the past the video quality was always excellent
I love you Katrin💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Wow, Matt only needs to average 27 points/event (less than 4th place) in the last 3 events to win the games💪 that’s just ridiculous that someone can be that much better than their closest competitor
There are 7 events remaining
@@tindureliasen2184 well we know he’s winning at least 3/4 more so
Who’s here after the joe rogan episode, props to all the athletes!
