Me today at 21 years old 😁😁😁
Very very old🧜🏻♀️
I just found out just now.
Lol... I just did
Same, I didn’t know there was a competition like this lmao.
I would have thought the best nation at this discipline would be the Finns.
Badum tsss!
Out!
Funny, but stereotypes of mermaids claim it'd be us Celts
This guy #winning
@@JaggedBird ok
They should uh um uh actually fire their commentators.
JD Mango they can’t talk lmao
This comment should have more likes
JD Mango it pretty clear English isn’t there first language as of most Americans who can pathetically only speak 1 language
TB44 I’m an American and I respect this comment
SLeping On Santa Monica BLVD same lol I’ve been living here since I was 2
Didn’t know this existed and I’m a swimmer
Same

Well apparently u are not
If you try, you'll know swim is soo sloooow...
Glief true!
A list of women's 400m world records for perspective:
2:56.48 - immersion (this event)
3:12.10 - surface (swim with snorkel and monofin)
3:44.65 - bi-fins (swim with snorkel and two fins)
3:56.40 - freestyle (normal swimming)
4:26.36 - individual medley
47.60 - running
Surface finswimming looks a lot like this, where competitors use an undulating motion with their arms forward in a streamline position. Bi-fins finswimming looks like freestyle, but with a fin on each foot.

This is awesome. Never knew this was a sport.
I would love to see more events.
Finally a mermaid sport competition for real
it's not "mermaidswimming", it's "(dol)finswimming"
It's called a monofin
IKR hahah kind of a mermaid sport 😂
Ahmed Essam you misspelled mermaid
No THe TAIl IS CALLED A MONOFIN......
the commentator is as clueless to this sport as us😂
Loool I was looking for this!
@@aliyahshanae
I think he's learning English..
Sounds Asian
@@myman8336 Nah, sounds Russian
@My Man lmao he’s Russian.
@My Man the real russian accent is different from the one in western movies.
How in the world did the YT algorithim know I wanted to watch this.
😂😂😂
@johnnytheprick that's what happened to me.
@johnnytheprick 😳😂😂😂😂
@johnnytheprick Haha. The power of RUclips I gained a secret lover just by watching this video. 😂😂😂😂.
@johnnytheprick So it's over like that. 😂😂😂😂
The speed is seriously impressive 💪🏽
How no-one broke their neck upon finishing is just amazing
I counted 489 times he said “Ah”. A wide vocabulary.
fjfjrfjfjr right how did he score that job lol
Ah stfu ah ya bish ahh
hes russian and clearly struggles to speak english yk
You really counted that???!?!!!?!
I only got 109
It’s so cool seeing how fast they move through the water
Teufel Hunden1371 yes true
It sucks when you have to turn. Losing all momentum
GamerBoss1923 from what you said I’m assuming you’ve never swam competitively.....
They are mermaids
Stupid Idiot .
been a competitive swimmer for 12 years and just now hearing about this sport. it looks so fun. bonkers
You think this is bonkers RUclips professional pillow fighting 🤣
I never knew that this kind of race existed but it looked so beautiful and graceful. I would love to try this.
racism 😱
@@nizami8500 I meant competition
This is how many times the commentator said uh.
👇
Probably his second language
Uhh..
40 Times they said Uh
I didn't notice it at first, and now I cannot hear anything else.
Piyush Gupta Eng apparently not his first language. U should be familiar with this as your name suggests, tandoori chicken.
This is the worst commentator EVER!!
Uhh
Uh
Uhhh I. Uhhh ... gree
Uurg. Ahh. Uhm.
it was annoying
I wish it was in The Olympics too , I hope it ll get included in near future!
What a silent sport. So peacefull.

Worst announcer ever.
Mivan? Magyar vagyok
Patrick Star
Uhmm uhm uhh... CHECKMATE!
You can tell English isn't their first tho
The first time that I have ever head of this sport. Fascinating how fast the swimmers can move underwater. How long has this sport existed?
I want to know too.
@Zachary Arnold Get out! Really? Nut uh!
@Zachary Arnold Oh wow!
Same here...who started this sport?
sandra sanders Fish
The commentators don't even know what they're saying 😂
Hahaha. Word!
Ikr ! I took a shot of jack Daniels
Every time the commentators said “ UM or AAA!
Im phucking trashed 1st 50 meters!
🤮🤢
Never seen this discipline before. They are super fast!
like you 😘😘
Didn't even know this was a thing...
Edit: I never thought this comment would've reached so many likes. This is the most I've ever gotten.
I think we're all at this point.
@@dupondavignon869
** For sure **
What really amazes me it that it seems such a “developed” sport with equipment and technique seemingly standardized and medal favorites too. Is there a practical application to this sport? Are they faster than free style? Could a scuba diver hold his tank forward like that to swim faster for a bit? So many questions I now have!
So I watched a 400 meter women’s freestyle for comparison. Freestyle wr 4:02ish whereas this immersion race won in 3:00ish. Super fast!
I used to bodyboard in my college days on the East Coast / Hawaii. There is a reason why you wear swim fins. It’s much much faster.
my first time to seeing this type of swimming. Interesting!
Sameeee
Me too
Same here
I didn't know there was such an event before watching this ! Incredible speeds !!
This should be in the Olympics. It's more entertaining than skateboarding
I completely agree!!
Ya and artistic gymnastics, artistic swimming, equestrian, canoeing, rhythmic gymnastics, marathon swimming and rowing are so entertaining. Literally 20 people care.
I thought they held their breath when I saw the title. This is weird.
My thoughts exactly. Kind of a lame sport
@@SimonWoodburyForget wtf are saying? Isn't swiming going as fast as possible for as long as you can? Swimming is not only a noble sport, it is also an important life's skill. I am a life guard and a free diver. Those fins come from free diving. This here would mean something if they would do it without the mini tanks. This way it is just stupid.
@@SimonWoodburyForget
Ok I get it. If I continue this diacussion with you, it will be the same as with my wife. You are in it to win it, no matter what. You are obviously not engaged in sports.
Ok lets bring on potato sack racing and midget tossing (not that kind of tossing...) and let you win this words race of logical arguments.
@@SimonWoodburyForget
Ok, there we have it: since you, sir, are not an athlete, but rather a spectator, you regard sports as a game for your amusement, which makes your argument a valid one. I was one (not a pro), so as that and as a Lifeguard, I can asure you no athlete regards his or her sport as a game, let alone regard themselves as sircus clowns for the amusement of the masses. Perhaps a necessary evil, perhaps just as a necessity, because that is where the money comes from and athletes need to eat.
I, as a free diver, was totaly oblivious to anything besides the distance between me and the depth mark and then back up to the surface. As a long distance swimmer, when you swim for 5 miles you meditate, you think of nothing at all, else you freak out. Swimming for three hours while conscious is boring.
I allow myself to assume you are a very young person. I believe one day you might understand what I am saying here. It is mind over matter and a body is all matter. It is between me and it.
Most people will not understand this, some athletes among them.
@@SimonWoodburyForget
This was fun, wasn't it?
I enjoyed our little talk.
I finaly understand why we disagree: it is because you are a di... nahhh I am just teasing.
We disagree because I have failed to emphasis a point which would have clarified we are not talking about the same thing at all. I have never competed with anyone but myself. Not since I finished high school. Free diving, long distance swiming, extreme weather condition field running, open road down hill roller blading, that kind of sports, I alwys did it alone.
National mermaid championship
*International
It's different championship.....try to search mermaid championship, it's existed
Casually breaking all swimming world records in a single race.
Wow...nearly a minute faster than the Olympic swimmers!
because its underwater, plus they have oxygen tanks
@@yuno0_ They're actually not fully oxygen, it is atmospheric air, which was explained in the video . And, I'm sure you could beat an Olympic swimmer...lol.
Love how he only talks about past races and not the current race
LMAO
Yeh its the pool cleaner commentating
And so many errgh's when he speaks... Hard to listen to!
Fish: evolves into human
Human: wish i could be fish again
Um, we didn't evolve from fish
@@rogg0224 sorry to break up ur Jesus parade, but yeah we did. 😂😂😂
Oh you're right.. sorry
PAAAH-nyo, Ponyo, little fishy in THE sea!!
@@death9222 Actually we wouldn't know. What we evolved from will always be a theory, so instead of trying to sound smart how about you do a little bit of research
Have never seen this category before. Amazing muscles usage.
Makes me amazed by how dolphin can swim next to a ship for multiple minutes, while jumping over the water.
How could such a beautiful sport not on Olympics!
It will be contested in this year's The world games.
Because the US is not dominating it. Got to keep track of those precious medals we won, against countries we bomb, sanction and surround with military bases!
The commentator got stuck in traffic, the pool cleaner is filling in
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@death9222د
LMFAO
Lmao
This is such a weird sport but so beautiful to watch!
It's called Finswimming if you'd like to know!
Yeah it's actually very hard but so satisfying to watch, thanks for appreciating it😊
might ne the stupidest sport in the world, well, next to freestyle skiing.
@@jimmason8502 calling a sport stupid even tho You've never played it. it's actually very hard sport to play

That moment when you realize HOW FUCKING FAST THAT REALLY IS
The fitness that must take is insane.

WHY IS THIS SO ME
That fins is actually so painful
@@curt5288 It can, but doesn't have to be. I have one myself. Depends on what you have and how you use it.
@@curt5288 I don't use a fun to do the dolphin kick.
@@christophergardiner5351 true and I'm tryna cross islands rn hopefully.
God, I can hear my nonexistent abs screaming
Lol
If they had to do it on their backs it would be even worse
Guys, i can tell you-
I am doing that sports, and my back or stomach/abs doesn't hurts at all!
My feet and thighs, that's it.
They are HURTING ASF.
@@beater.6673 I can back this up...kicking is FIRE in your quads and the arch in your feet. Abs are definitely involved (initiate the correct posture for your legs to be in to kick properly), but, in large part, the quads are supplying the force....400meters is nightmarish
Charlie O'Leary On back it is easier if you block your nose.
I love how this sport exists!
OMG where was this event when I was swimming competitively!? I would ROCK this!!!
How have I not seen this before?! That endurance!
my legs cramped up about 1000x time watching this.
Snookers not a sport neither is Darts
Not really crazy difficult dude
It is not endurance.

Me: * sees the thumbnail*
My brain: H2O Add water.
This is how my grandma got to school
Ладно хоть не не метле прилетала ))))
XD
This is BRUTAL!!!!
omg they be moving so fast and all i can do in the water is float for like 15 seconds before dipping and getting back on shore LMAOO
It's pretty easy to move fast with flippers. I'm not nearly as fast as them, but it is really fun. I can go 100 meters without a breath compared to my usual 20 meters
This is nuts. Such an amazing sport. I’ve been wanting to try swimming in a monotone for so long. They look so powerful and graceful.
Commentators: Students what did you learn from this class?
Students: ahhhhhh um ah ummm and ah...
Wow they are 40 seconds faster than the men's 400m freestyle world record. Insane.
Who would have guessed swimming with fins would be faster
@@joshjjjjj25 40 seconds of 400m is a lot. I didn't say "wow they are faster". Stop being a fucking dipshit.
Love it! Me encantó
Crazy how fast they swim!! Legit they look like fish 🐟 🐟
@@JohnSmith-mp6is repent man seek God that lusting ain't gon stop and gon get u no where but clean to the lake of fire
actually more like a dolphin, as their fin is horizontal.

It is! 💫
Never seen or heard of this before, more please 🙏 ❤
RUclips decided to put this in my recommended list, I have not a single idea why but ok
As a swimmer, I’d love a go at that. No idea it existed. Might make the Ireland team 🇮🇪 - if I start one 😂🤣
Well, you have right surname for starters.
Lower your ego flag will you for children's sake
이런게 있는지도 몰랐는데ㅠ 우리나라 선수 3위!!! 자랑스럽다❤
How come this isn't on the news and how come I never heard of this? lol this is amazing.
I have never seen this kind of swimming. GOod korea!!!!

ur awesoem
Sadsflxdcmavmlisboofw🎉ckl
This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!!
What is the yeollow thing they have in font of them?
I know the monofin from rescue swimming competitions but I've never seen this yellow thing.
It's actually harder than it looks to swim with that type of monofin. I was a trained swimmer and rescue swimmer. We sometimes used fins in training but these fins are way harder. It needs time to get used to. In the beginning I got cramps after just a few meters even though I was a trained swimmer. But it was so much fun being a lot faster with these fins. I never knew this event exists. Now I'm too old and sick for anything competitive but I still love the water 💚
This is crazy fast, faster than normal swimming by far.
Malmsey yo no way
Yes, BUT they are using air tanks and takes the the point out of the competitive sport! Because when you do competitive swimming like I do you go into oxygen deprivation. When you don't have an air tank and fins!!!!!
@@Gina_Michel How is it different - you breath air while swimming, they breath air while swimming - its not enriched air.
@@simonlove99 It is different because when normal swimmers have to breath they have to raise or turn their head which slows them down because it takes increased effort and takes time to breath. Because of that swimmers have to work on breath control in order to lower the amount of times they breath to lower their race times. Which takes a lot of time to do. These swimmers do not have to worry about that or getting tired because of being out of breath because of the air tank. They also have fins which allow them to kick much much faster and harder.
@@techsupport00 Thanks for explaining the difference and I can understand the point. I can see the effort, control and practice that is required around breathing to perform in your particular sport. However, I'm pretty sure you also have to work hard on technique, endurance, muscle strength, steamlining, timing and many other facets to be competitive also. So Gina declaring 'takes the point out of competitive swimming' because one facet of the sport is different seemed to miss the mark to me. Fins are also not relevant to the competitive nature of the event - everyone is equally matched, so all that happens is the speed goes up and everyone needs to develop stronger leg muscles to handle the fins. Arguably it also increases the challenges with nailing the turns as you're approaching the end of the pool at a higher speed, therefore timing is more critical. As you can see, as a layman, I think the original point was somewhat unfair.
What an excellent Core workout
And the gold medal goes to Google's algorithms for surfacing this vid. 🥇
Literally the first I learn about this.
You learn something every day.
3위 축하드립니다 신지희선수!! 오지십니다

So glad I'm not the only one that was clueless about the existence of this sport
This video came up as a recommendation for me . I didn’t know this sport existed .
They should have their own special swimming pool, like a 10000M swimming pool.
Incrível !
Essa modalidade eu não conhecia ! 👏👏👏
Terrible sports commentary
I uhh uhmm what?
As I replied to others' comnents: this is not their native language and for a niche sport like this they don't need to import a native English speaker commentator who is likely gonna be a celebrity type drama queen requesting attention and making it all about themselves. Meanwhile, Americans speak 1 language, judging from your last name, you probably speak 2 languages. But that's not because you learned it at school or a language course, but because you were born to immigrants. That's a fact. So think twice before you run mouth about some random Serbian guys commenting in a language they learned at school, in a language that is not present in their country (I know that for Americans it's hard to grasp that not everyone speaks English in their countries, etc.). You can run your mouth about it once you learn a foreign language that is not present in your environment and then go on national television or at least RUclips and speak on camera in that language. Simple as that.
If regular swimming = running, then finswimming is basically like riding a bike.
What an interesting swimming catagory!
I know that they get to breathe from their air tanks but this makes me think of doing underwaters at practice and the anxiety is killing me.
This is the most random suggestion in my feed. I also want to now try this.
WTF?! WHAT DID I just watch. Wait till this is in the Olympics! Crazy
Love this. Never heard of it before. Thank you internet. Ftw
Could uh the announcer uh say uh anymore uh times uh
Said the American who likely speaks only one language. Or two, if you were born to immigrants that spoke another language at home. Lol
Never seen a swim like this in my life wow 🤩
In my 40 years of life I didnt even know this sport exist ... The mermaids competition
Thanks to this video, I didn't even know there was such a sport. This is a mermaid swimming competition!😄
I never even knew “Finswimming” was a thing ;-; dont tell me im the only one..
You're not the only one I never heard of this until this came up on my site...
Nuh I didn't know either
I knew swimming with two fins existed but not swimming with one fin. I also didnt knew about swimming with gas oxygen when ive been a swimmer since 4yrs old. I only remember training without breathing underwater, not competing with gas oxygen, I would drown from that lmao
You're not ... Neither did I... wonder if this is an Olympic sport (?)...
I thought they were holding their breath for that long i was amazed all the way through and thought the tank was a weight to keep them submerged
U r a fish
I agree. As impressive as this is, it would be even more interesting to see this competition without the O2 tanks.
@@steveb9151 They do this, but they stay on the surface.
i thought the tank was one of those underwater scooter things you hold and it drags you along faster
Your dumber than a sack of hammers
🧜🧜🧜🧜😺 no sabía que existía este deporte, interesante, inspirándose en la naturaleza 🐟👍🏼
😲 WOW!!! 💕 this new mode of swimming! How did we miss the fact that it existed? 🤷 As I heard the commentator state that the swimmer from China {gold medalist} had held her championship for 2 yrs.
youtube: you are an immersion swimmer fan now
me: ok.
One time, while I was in Poland, this fella asked me, “hey do you eat beets?” My immediate answer was “doesn’t everyone?” He looked at me like I had grown another head. I told him to screw off. True story. Later on, I see the guy on the news. He had asked 20 people if they liked beets that day, and, every time someone said they didn’t eat/like beats, he’d pelt them with raw corn. True story. Probably two years ago, I’m on a train in Italy, I swear, the same dude walks up and asks if I like beets. True story. I tell him “yes” and then ask if he remembers me. He did! True story. We have coffee later that day and he’s a heck of a guy. We ended up hanging out probably 20 times over the course of that year and becoming great friends. True story. Best of all, he was the best man at my wedding last month. True story. He told me I need to check out mermaid swimming, so, here I am! Blessings.
Beets the vegetable? Or beats like music?
Hayley burnside
My word. I’m ashamed. I’ll fix that right now.
True story! 😁
Я ни че не понял)
Is this true?
did this competition start in the navy?
Trying to figure out how to replace the cam shaft on my 5.7 hemi... thanks YT
I honestly thought this was a joke at first
Fascinante...increíble deporte. Me encantó.
Now that's neat.. that is the first time i have even seen this type of swimming event before.. they move in the water really good.
I never heard or seen such a sport until now, pretty cool to watch. Am I the only one that didn’t know this existed?
