My kink: hearing people talk in depth about things they are passionate about
bro
You must have got off good watching this then 😂
They sure draw you in, don’t they? 🙂 When someone talks about something they’re passionate about, they make the most random things sounds super interesting
Let me guess. You have none of your own.
That’s not really a kink, but I know what you mean
Still waiting for a "Crackhead breaks down drug use scenes in movies".
Any time you want. It's just that we're not all that rare.
@@stongnyid Do it. Just do it.
Get someone like Steve O to do it
Perfect movie: Platzspitzbaby
oh my lord. yes please
To be fair legolas had almost 3000 years to perfect his skills so that’s why he’s so good
3000 years hmm. and still using his hands !
Lol I was about post something like this too 🤣
2931
His age is invented by the filmmakers. In the books there is no evidence of his actual age but there is somewhat of an implication that he is young and 3rd age. I have a feeling he is more like 1000 ish but you can make it what you will. :)
@@tokkia1384 I’m fine with calling him 1000, though I’m not certain anything past the 800th year is going to do much to improve his ability substantially
"I don't know why he's shooting like that, but I do know he has hella obliques, a flat stomach, and an exploding broad head." 🤣🤣🤣
"If that was me I'd definitely be zigzagging"
Everyone except effin' Rickon!
@@RubenGarcia-lm7gq why you copy paste this to an unrelated comment....
The smile @4:37 is priceless
"exploding broad head" im dead
He was talking about the exploding arrowhead not Rambo's head
Was hoping they would let him review Legolas riding a shield down the stairs getting a killing spree of orcs
I mean hes fine with arrows penetrating plate armor so im sure he'd totally accept that with a "I've never tried this in real life but..."
Dwarfurious what about the one where he destroyed an elephant with his bow?
ScrapZ it was an Oliphaunt, you uncultured swine.
or any1 of those times where he knocks two or 3 arrows at once
@@slovak4life1991 it still only counted as one
when he sees legolas: "thats gonna take some time, if thats what hes dedicating his life to..."
legolas: *is 3000 years old*
Yeah, I kind of laughed at that one too.
No he isn't.
@@EnjoyCocaColaLight 69 years off but shush
@@booty_hunter4207 SIXTYNINE LMAO
@@EnjoyCocaColaLight yes he is lmao hes 2 thousand 900 something years old
THIS is the type of expert opinion I love. Most experts just criticize films for not being perfect. I love that this guy instead uses his knowledge & enthusiasm to actually encourage more people to try archery, and praises films for the effort
Completely agree! It's so nice to see something like this rather than, 'oh that's not realistic blah blah' You can tell he has passion for archery and it wouldn't matter what movie clip he was watching, he'd be into it if it had archery. I also like that he's putting out more information about the different sights and ranges etc.
Exactly!
Cam is a motivating positive person. Amazing dude!
“The way he’s he’s holding the bow tilted is weird but gosh, look at his abs, his biceps, his hair! That other guys D E A D”
“I don’t know how he’s aiming but what I do know is he has hella obliques, rock hard abs..” lmaoo
"Hella obliques" took me out. I was like Ok dad, I see you're hip w it lmao
Lmao
He really likes Rambo lol
Understatement
Lmao at this point he just turned into a movie commentator, i loved it!
I loved the LOTR scene.
"Getting that good with a bow is going to take some time"
Legolas: Well yeah, I'm literally over 2000 years old.
yeah it took some time alright 1000 years of practice and 1000 years of war will do that.
2931 to be precise.
And i started using a bow when i was 9 years old

Hey. Rickon was on the run since age 3. He had no time to train for anything (altho Osha could have taught him survival skills).
@@dianasayson2846 ummmm if someone's shooting at you you'd still run straight? XD
I'm not trained either and whatever age he is, he should've zig zag.
You are correct! Who doesn't zig-zag??
"Serpentine" was one of the top trending tags in the first days after the episode aired.
Man, I love how passionate he is about Hunger Games and Katniss Everdeen.
Well, it did do a lot to promote the sport and I'm sure someone with that much dedication to their craft would always appreciate more people joining in.
@@BlackSaphire96 especially because it helped get girls and women interested in the sport when it was more male dominated before, which was great!
Even this guy believes Rickon should have zig-zagged.
Dickon
@@Umar_1994_ Rickon.
Dickon is Sam's brother
@@Melissa-wx4lu I know that, but where Rickon is mentioned, Dickon always comes to mind.
Bob and weave you fool!
@The Iron Duke Is this a thing? A panicking young boy wouldn't think to zig-zag. Or at least that seems totally feasible. More feasible than that episode where everyone closed their eyes to fight the white walkers and there was just audio...
"I don't know how he's aiming but I do know he's got hella obliques."
Thats 90% of the battle right there.
@@user-ce8ld5nf8d positivity?
lefu Nah, having hella obliques
Hella tho
He said he’d hunt with his shirt off if he had a body like Rambo 👀 We see that definition through your shirt, Cameron. Take. It. Off.
Alternate title: Weapons expert critiques obliques while discussing penetration
That made me snort 😂
That was the original title before being censored
I'm definitely not an expert, but there's something about holding a bow and using one that just MAKES you confident. You can feel the power you hold in your hand, and if you're using real arrows, those are lethal weapons. You're wielding a weapon, whether it's for hunting or target practice, and the bow doesn't let you forget that.
Once you get good, you know its your determination that brought you there! Definitely teaches you that through dedication, anything is possible. How can you be anything other than confident after that?
Your comment about power on hand reminds me about the time (only) I held a pistol in my hand.
We need the 2nd Amendment in my country. 😪
It only makes you feel confident if you aren’t pushing yourself. (That or if you shoot wheelbow. 🤭😜) you shoot long enough and reach far enough you’ll get to know the challenges of the mental game.
Fun fact: Orlando Bloom trained for 5 months for the role of Legolas EDIT: Yes I know the arrows are cgi but the guy clearly thinks his stance/technique is good so that's gotta mean something like hello
Lol 😂
Fun fact: I'm in love with him.
I trained for 9 years to become an electrical engineer. I guess that i choose wrong profession
@@bax442 Well, how many Urukhai did you see nowadays, and how much is electric expertise needed?
@@Jalgorn There are lots of people that look like urukhai ;)
I like this guy. A ton of experts are overly conceited and are way to serious about these movies. But this guy is a perfect mix of knowledgeable and funny
Cam Hanes is a CRAZY good dude. Look him up on Instagram ultraramarathoner extreme bow hunter.
@Eddie Eaves yup and he was right
@Eddie Eaves it's "broad head" as in "the head of a female"
@Eddie Eaves Edward you are a silly goose
@Eddie Eaves dude we both know you posted your same original comment multiple times on this video haha. Its no big deal and yet you made a bigger deal over it than it needs to be ;)
“This has a iron will broad head on it. This is razor shard it actually even has my name on it: Cam Hanes, so that’s kind of cool”
Casual flex
I definitely laughed he went ahead and said his name out loud.
"You can get good at shooting a crossbow in 5 minutes"
So true. There's a reason they started more or less replacing bows as the default ranged infantry weapon in the later medieval period.
Proper archers took months or even years to train, and they had to be pretty athletic to withstand the strain it put on them.
Meanwhile any shmuck by comparison could make for a decent crossbowman with a few weeks of training.
this guy is the first "expert" I've seen on these that seems genuinely stoked about what he's doing and I love it.
and he is wrong about over penetration in the LotR scene. Penetration period is unrealistic in that circumstance let alone over penetration. Bows will not shoot through plate + mail + gambeson. The plate on the front of the 1st guy would have stopped that arrow.
All of Forrest Galante's are gold too.
mattsa pic he knows bows and arrows not armour
mattsa pic We got a youtube professional over here
@@saintcarlson6452 he's right though.
I find your video's lack of Legolas shield surfing while shooting arrows disturbing.
Kent Pham When he was like “Like Katnis” when talking about Legolas I was like he’s the original. Katnis was a fem Legolas
For real, I thought this would involve a lot more Legolas, and dissing it for being over the top.
i saw lord of the rings i had to click
That's why they should re interview him. Legolas has many scene that he should watch and hawkeye
To be fair, the stunt actor actually did the stunt. As for difficulty aiming, I would attribute the shield surfing to the difficulty of shooting while on horseback, which is something one of the most successful nations on earth did.
"Dang! He's got some rapid fire. He's getting it right there"
Me (thinking): "That still only counts as one!" 😅😅
I know what you did there 😂
That line will never get old
This guy is awesome. So often these people get way too technical but he seems like he's just having fun with it and bringing knowledge. One of the better ones to watch imo
"Jennifer Lawrence, she is responsible for more young girls getting into archery than any woman in the history of women."
Lara Croft, Alloy and Ellie are like: "Are we a joke to you?!" :D
But she gave up hole for more penetration...
@@emynex7097 Yes, they are in this case. The likelihood of girls/women that do archery are video gamers, that also played these specific games, and were also deeply invested in these characters to take up archery in real life is in my opinion far less likely than the same females that have watched or read The Hunger Games series.
@@COA5T Good point. I know several girl gamers and only one has played the Last of Us and none have played TombRaider. Almost every female I know has seen the HungerGames movie or read the book.
Emy nex lol great games, but wasn’t Hunger Games first?
"If that was me I'd definitely be zigzagging"
Everyone except effin' Rickon!
@@kurvos if he's a straight guy he might not think of other guys as "hot" but he cán think they're badass. And if being able to shoot a bow is something he finds very attractive in a woman he might think "that's hot" before he thinks "that's badass".
I don't find it sexist per se.
@@kurvos for me, as a girl, it would be the other way around. I'd say a guy shooting a bow is hot, but wouldn't say the same about a woman because I don't find women hot in that sense. It wóuld be badass though :)
SERPENTINE CYRIL!
It's like have you ever watched apocalypto
Dickon
Cam is so kind to all the performers and gives such a nice commentary. It was a pleasure to watch his reactions and hear his thoughts. he would be the kind of person I would want to instruct me on archery, not just for his incredible skill and knowledge, but also for his positivity.
This is my favorite expert. I don't know anything about archery but he has such passion and love for his craft. I get irritated when I see these experts being overly critical.
Legolas is about 3000 years old. So, he's practiced a little, and he's shot a few arrows in his day I'd say. Immortality is a nice species trait methinks.
Until you take an arrow to the knee
Like Kili did.
Theres some great videos of russian archers shooting as fast as legolas. Pretty good stuff. They have an interesting technique with the draw hand.
And he uses CGI arrows, which helps considerably.
Rooster Jenkins lol well yeah. I don’t think anyone expects Orlando bloom to be able to shoot like that 😂
17:55 I'd like to point out that Legolas is canonically 2931 years old during the Fellowship. I'd say he's had a lot of practice.
Yeah 😂 I do love that later in that same battle, Legolas shoots two orcs through the skull with one arrow, like, maybe he had a point with the “he shoulda used a half-draw to not kill Aragorn” 😂
@ShalakumX Simba Where did you find Legolas mentioned that early in the canon? Never heard of that
@ShalakumX Simba im not sure if Legolas was mentioned in the Silmarillion, but i could be wrong
@ShalakumX Simba Legolas has not the same age as Elrond lol
Yeah I feel it's really unfortunate that nobody explained that to him. I get that the idea is he reacts to it without any knowledge, but I'd have been curious to see if he salivated at the mouth thinking about how good his shot could be in almost 3000 years.
For Hawkeye's sake, he wasn't trying to necessarily shoot Loki, he was trying to get his explosive near him to either kill him or at least knock him off balance!
And the *BOOM* as Loki was sneering at him was perfect.
I don't know i always remember Hawkeye saying " i will shoot Loki's eye with an arrow" or something like that in vengeance for using him, so in that scene we can see the arrow going directly to Loki's eye until he stops it just right there before it lands, that's why i find it funny i thought we was trying to do that 😅
“Has my name on it. Cam Hanes. Kinda cool”
Smooth flex bro.
If this guy was wearing a hat he’d look just like Cameron Hanes
Hummm yea sure...
Lol
This is legit
Then he said cam hanes
I think he looks more like john Dudley
Legolas: "that's gonna take some time". A millenium of practice will do that.
Or Joerg Sprave's instant legolas creation...
Or just be Lars Andersen
ruclips.net/video/y8uxXknNDTU/видео.html
@BRAGGLEFRAGLE IIRC Legolas isn't much younger than Gondor and Rohan themselves.
BRAGGLEFRAGLE
Phh, 3000 years? What a noob. He should fire like machinegun in this case. :D
“Dedicating his life to” yeah, one of his 50 worth of full human lives was dedicated to bow mastery XD elves man!
I love this guy better than the other expert archers I’ve seen. They all criticize stuff for not being accurate but they never consider that these scenes are made to look cool, not to be realistic. Specially that Hawkeye scene. This guy understands that and I love it.
Would've liked to see the Robin Hood movie starring Taron Egerton and Jamie Foxx featured in this video. Some of the best trick shots I've ever seen. They were trained by an actual world-class archer who would hold multiple arrows in his hand at once for quick successive shots.
Because the movie was crap
@@Thedisciplemike The movie itself was absolutely crap, but it did have some amazing archery. As was mentioned above, he was actually trained by the world's fastest archer Lars Anderson.
Please do another segment.
I used to be fairly. Good at it when I was a child. Had to move out of my parents house at 16 and had to leave it behind.
I asked you husband for one for my birthday do I can get back into it!!

dont think running is building upper body
Cp Gautam He’s shredded though and does plenty of lifting
Watch "Keep Hammering" on RUclips. The man is jacked and has traps for days.
Seth Parker runs 30 miles atleast daily, lifts and shoots everyday.Jocko, goggins and cam are badass humans
I didn't mean he doesn't do any other exercise, I meant marathon should have been changed to something like lifting in the original comment.
Legolas doesn’t shoot Katniss style. Katniss shoots Legolas style.
Correction: Katniss tries to shoot Legolas style.
I hear they've taken the hobbits to Isengard
Cams a noob

I love Cam Hanes. He seems so happy, and he smiles the entire video. Someday, I want to be as knowledgeable and passionate about something as he is about archery/bow hunting. Seems like a good, wholesome dude.
"That's gonna take reps to get that good" ...Legolas is almost 3000 years old, so I imagine he's done quite a few
"This dude's dead. Rambo knows he's dead. The dude knows he's dead. It's just a matter of dotting the i's and crossing the t's." HAHAHA

Defense budget red tape!!!
"I don't know how he's aiming but I do know he's got hella obliques, hes gotta flat stomach, he's got the exploding tip broadhead... this dude's dead."
I was dying!
So the point is, if you want to be a good archer, get ripped and be confident
@@spinakker14 if you know anything about Cameron Hanes, thats his policy for life, along with eat good meat.
@@joem6420 yeah, I can subscribe to that policy
@Cegesh I tried archery and I can confirm
It's just funny because archers are not admired for their obliques in popular discussion
@Cegesh It really depends on poundage. I'm a woman with a slight build (meaning, no real muscle mass worth speaking of). I've practiced archery for years, and never had trouble with my bow. It's not a 70lbs hunting bow monster, and I wouldn't even dream of drawing that back. Most of the pulling isn't with the arms, it's with the shoulders, and that makes it much easier. I can hold my shot for up to 10 seconds (roughly), which is plenty of time to aim, secure, and release. And that's recurve, where the pull is constant. As I understand it, maintaining a shot with a compound bow is even easier because of the pulley system reducing the pull once it's drawn all the way out.
You guys seriously pick the BEST people to break this stuff down. I’ve learned so much about so many random topics (war, formula 1, bow hunting) by watching these. Keep doing what you’re doing. These are great. I love this dude
With the legolas scene in Lord of the Rings, it would make a lot of sense that he's that good at archery because he's literally been doing that for almost 3000 years
I love how he's not nitpicking everything
Yeah he's positively explaining things about bow use, allowing the clips to give him that excuse to do so, but not criticising things. Lovely chap
I wish the comment section would be as lovely as him with that. If the comment isn't talking about the one line everyone is taking as an idyendo. They are talking about how oh this character is like 2, 000 years old. You imagine he has gotten very good with his bow.
To be honest, I wish he nitpicked a bit more because that reveals more details, and I would learn more!
I love how positive this guy is. No matter whether he's passing or failing a scene, he's still happy and smiling.
that's Cam for ya
The elf has been shooting arrows for about a thousand years, so yeah he's had some "time" to practice.
Brave did take over 5 years to make, so no wonder it was so cool
Look at this human critiquing an ELF on his archery skills.
What you said made me realize, legolas bow string is clearly magical because a human, without magical powers cannot draw, knock, and fire an arrow with the same hand position as Legolas.
He didn't really critique him tho, he said he was badass lol
@A Lakótelepi Bosszúálló theres also the fact that elfs are more agile and have many more years to master their craft whatever it might be cause of their eternal life span.

"Welcome, Cam. Great to have you in studio today."
**Immediately makes him watch a video of a kid getting arrow'd through the heart.**
Arrow may be a tv show, but deserved to be on this list.
I was actually expecting his appearance, I mean there are many awesome scenes they could've used
I know, the show is literally called “Arrow” and features this OP dude with a bow lol
I know I watched the whole thing thinking “there’s no way they won’t show it right, it’s literally called arrow!” And then… nada
Maybe too fantasy, out of the realm of real possibility?
I kept waiting for it!!
@@raym4966 Arrow definitely isn't too far out of the realm of real. Yes, there are things that wouldn't happen in real life, such as constantly catching, blocking, and dodging of arrows shot at close range (maybe occasionally happens but not as often as shown on the show), but Amell and company took extensive archery training for the show, so they could have easily broken down the technique. I remember reading that an archery pro broke down Amell's form and said it was pretty good and realistic. Plus, one clip is with an elf shooting at half human creatures in a realm with magical rings, wizards, and talking trees, while another is a man shooting at a demi-god that is riding on an alien version of a car or motorcycle, so what happens on Arrow is far more real than either of those things.
Another pick for: “good mates to be with in an apocalypse”
na its the super rich that will survive not an arrow boi
Dom Noya do you think money will have any use during a world apocalypse?
He's a fcking superhuman. He literally runs an entire marathon every day
@@NoName-rb3vp Sure it would. Food and supplies become super rare and thus super expensive.

Thanks for making my Sunday morning brighter, have a good day.

lol YOU ARE AWESOME
Awesome. You made my day. Thanks!
You can tell a difference in these when yall get a person who is truly passionate about it.
little fun fact about the lotr scene: there were actually no arrows, the arrows are computer generated. orlando bloom just pretends to shoot arrows :D
dry firing moment
rEALLY-
God, I love when these experts aren't just negative about everything. When they're all negative, that always makes me think they're so self-conscious that they need to prove they're really experts.
Cam Haynes on the other hand knows he's an expert, so he can spend his time having fun with it and pointing out the fun. He has nothing to prove. Good on you, Cam
Yet he didn't acknowledge armor/cloth as any meaningful factor in KA - Legend of the Sword / LotR. Pointing out flaws and misconceptions isn't "being negative" lmao.
@@Spherac Cam probably doesnt have any particular expertise in the effects of medieval armor on arrow penetration lol, just the flesh of large animals, so its ok if hes just talking about the archer himself
@@Spherac deers don't wear chainmail and armour so why would he point out something about armour. This is an archery expert not a combat archery expert which probably hasn't been an expertise in over 200 years
Agreed. Some of these professionals can be quite condescending too. On the armor part, he seems fairly knowledgeable on the topic of bows, arrow heads, etc. So maybe he knows about armor, just wasn’t the main topic I guess
@@Spherac He said hen he has a perfect shot, his arrows can go 'through' a bull, large male animal, which has leather hide and larger than human muscle tissue, and his arrows can still go through and out the other side of the animal...
Legolas is almost 3000 years old so he's had some practice
Yeah, I'm sitting here thinking that. He must not have read the books or watched the movie beforehand. lol Hopefully, someone was like, "He's 3,000 years old." and Cam was like, "Yeah, OK. So he's got some practice."
He's also an elf. Kinda helps.
@@Ioliar Also they probably didn't told him that the "arrows" the actor was shooting were CGI. Orlando Bloom was only doing the arm/hands movements. :P
Yup, right you are!
3000 for an elf? Ah he's just a twenty something.
This is easily the best GQ breakdown. You can tell he knows his stuff and he actually teaches you something.
because Cameron Hanes is a stud when it comes to Hunting and Running
The crossbow is actually a very interesting thought I had never thought about.... I always thought that would be one of the best weapons in a zombie apocalypse survival, but if you have to go get crossbow bolts hundreds of yards away, may not be super effective.
This guy, the Hunter, seems like such a nice dude with a good aura, id love to be taught Archery by him

“But I do know he’s got hella obliques”
Brando Flemmington that killed me
I find it funny that he didn't get the point of GOT scene: Ramsey could've hit Rickon on the first shot, no problem. The whole point was to torture him, giving the kid that false hope that he might survive it.
Yeah I don't think he watched the show
So
@@sudarshangopinathan5904 I didn't watch the show but it was pretty clear he was playing the poor guy by giving him false hope and basically showing off
Umm. Sarcasm?
But like the point is realistically, Ramsay wouldn't have been able to hit Rickon at that distance so it would be unwise. Of course, what happens is whatever the writers write it to be but, given how the last half of GoT is a shove down an incline and then over a cliff in quality, that reasoning doesn't make it justified either.
"To master the bow, is to master ones self."-Sensie Ishikawa, Ghost of Tsushima
"Give a hot girl a bow, makes her 10x hotter"
*Pretty sure this guy got the hots for a bow and arrow*
I’m pretty sure he was referencing Lara Croft there
"Give a bow a hot girl, makes the bow 2x hotter."
--His next line, edited out in post, probably.
Probably his kink in bed too, he likes his partners with bow and arrows
Cam Hanes lives and breaths archery. The amount of time he spends training for his hunts is inspiring. Check out some of his youtube videos!
Was thinking something seriously off with this guy the whole time.
Really enjoyed listening to this guy who clearly loves his craft.
Julie B he’s an inspiration. He runs a marathon every day. He’s run a bunch of ultramarathons, some 250 miles long. He’s famous now and likely “well off,” but he still works his normal “9 to 5.” The guy is just an awesome human being.
He has a training video with a rock I think was like 150 lbs in his backpack walking hiking up a mountain for leg day. Cam is just an amazing person
Check out his podcast with joe Rogan, its awesome
Yup. His enthusiasm for killing things with bows is infectious. =-D
@@m.m2594 40 lbs. really isn't that much. Also, you can get modern bows in the 20lb to 40lb. Actually, modern archers are a bit wimpy compared to their ancient counterparts, who used bows up to as much as 150lbs draw weight. If you shoot bows regularly you're going to develop some shoulders on you. Holding 40lbs. of draw for a minute or so wouldn't be undoable for a woman her size.
Legolas was a legendary immortal elf archer. I think he knows how hard to pull his bow string not to kill Aragorn. 😆
I would say it's more like Katness has a little bit of Legolas style, cause, you know, it's Lord Of The Rings...
I love how it's always the animated movies are always the most accurate, like Brave and Ratatouille.
yea nothing beats the acuracy of a chef rat that tells the guy what to do by pulling his hair
Guys, I'm talking about the cooking methods, setup, and kitchen dynamic. Not the rat, I thought that was obvious.
Since they're all completely unreal, I think animated movies often feel an additional pressure to make things 'realistic', because that helps viewers suspend disbelief. Also, since the characters are animated the animators _can_ make them real experts. Like, you don't need to teach an actress to be a so-so archer to play Merida - you can animate her to be a good archer with excellent form on every shot.
In many ways, it is much easier to be accurate in animation. For a movie like Brave, they can bring in some expert archers and draw based on them. You don't have to train any actor to pretend to be an expert, so the level of skill you can have the character display is higher and more faithful.
@@blossomnessstudios4446 It was, but the response was still pretty funny.
I really appreciated that he talked about Katniss getting a lot of girls interested in archery. It’s so cool that that happened.
Jerry C greekgodsandgoddesses.net/goddesses/artemis/ here I looked it up for you! I don’t really understand why you couldn’t do that yourself. But anyway, happy reading!
Arrow made me interested in Archery.. Surprisingly they didn't put him here
I’m a girl but I gotta say that LOTR was the trilogy that inspired me to take it up. Probably cause I wasn’t a fan of all that Battle Royale inspired YA when it came out even though I was 12, 13 at the time (I did read the hunger games and watch the films though). Probably quite a skewed audience but I have a lot of friends who were also inspired by LOTR to take up archery (also girls!) Not at all saying hg wasn’t a major factor in recent times, but fantasy films have a large role to play too!

@@karidavis6929 You don't understand why he told you to look it up and in turn you telling him to also look it up?
Archery dude: wow man this most have taken awhile to learn
Legolas: well yeah, I’m over 2000 years old.
Archery dude: oh!
I love how he's so confident with the walking dead scene as though he's been in that situation
His bow is more high tech than my local hospital.
Only Canadians and other 3rd world medical infrastructural nations can relate
Pretty much. He’s honestly not that good of an archer.
@@KrolKaz I live in Oklahoma.
@@gigilaco Being that he's broken world records... I'd say you're wrong.
HoH hoch He’s been exposed for using CGI in his videos. He’s a clown.
Every other archer calls archery in movies unrealistic, he calls it confident. I like that!
One minor nitpick about the Hunger Games scene: Human ribs are oriented the other way compared to animal ribs. Unless the arrow is fletched so as to spin in flight, she'd want her broadhead blades to be horizontal if she's planning to hunt men.
Usually, arrows ARE fletched to put a spin on them. Like rifling in a gun, it helps to increase accuracy and range.
Also, a proper hunting or war bow would be powerful enough to BREAK ribs as the arrow passes through.
@@johnmullholand2044 It really depends on who's doing the manufacturing. Fletching the arrow to spin gives you more accuracy, but a shorter maximum range (forward momentum gets transferred into rotation, slowing the arrow down) and it's more difficult to do.
Definitely better in the majority of cases if you can do it precisely since accuracy is quite important, but a lopsided spin is worse than no spin so if you don't have the proper tools you're better off making it straight since that's easier to get right.
And yes, a powerful bow will break ribs and go through anyway. But that's still energy that's not going toward lacerating the important bits, and can easily turn a hit at a range or angle that would barely be lethal into a hit that is merely inconvenient.
@@laurenceperkins7468 And that's why you should know your limitations. As in, don't try to shoot a deer (or whatever) at a longer range than you can reliably hit where you mean to, and know the anatomy of your target. It's one thing to put an arrow in a paper target at long range, something else entirely to shoot an uninjured, unalarmed animal. As a hunter, you owe it to that animal to kill it quickly and cleanly.
@@johnmullholand2044 Yup, and take every little edge you can get to make doing that more reliable.
@Mitchell G I did mention that it matters whether it's fletched to spin or not. There are advantages to either design. Also, she's not using a modern, compound bow. She's using a recurved shortbow. Those don't throw nearly the same amount of energy per unit draw weight and she doesn't appear to have sufficient back muscles to be using a heavy weight bow the way she's shooting.
So happy that brave did so good for the archery scene. Also so happy that katniss scenes were also done really well
I like that this guy uses his real-world logic in these fictional settings based on the characters. As most of these shooting styles aren't realistic but he accepts that as the rule and still delivers compelling commentary. I have a new appreciation for what Katiness brought to the Archery hype.
Legolas was almost 3000 years old in that movie, so yeah, he's had time to practice.
ssfbob456 Good point ))) adds to the “realism” of the movie :D
That's why elves are no more. They had bow & arrow for millennia, then comes man, invents gunpowder within a few hundred years, and blasts the rest off the earth. Tech FTW
@@paulmichaelfreedman8334
In Lord of the rings, man didn't invent gunpowder, saruman did.
Saruman isnt a human, he's an ainur, a type of spirit, even older than the elves.
Was literally gonna say the same thing just about then I saw your comment.
Elias Agrebi my friend. You gained a subscriber
I hope we will get a part 2 with Cameron Hanes! He is just so knowledgable and fun to listen to.
"I only watch good movies" and he hasn't seen Lord of the Rings...... smh
Yeah, this guy came off as a little douchey to me. And a little out of his element. He was clearly very knowledgeable about hunting, but he didn't seem to know much about archery in the context of warfare. Like how he thought an arrow would completely punch through an armored uruk.
@@jeffreymonsell659 It easily could though, the Uruk scouts wore leather armour which wouldn't provide much protection against arrows or other piercing weapons.
@@MaFo82 really depends on the leather and shaping etc. Leather armor in the traditional sense would definitely get penetrated, however there were other kinds that were much harder and oblique, thus they stand a fair chance of deflecting an arrow or stopping it before it gets to their vitals, and then there's studded leather which has plates of metal under it.
@@jeffreymonsell659 13:40 I got a bit annoyed here as well. An arrow going through a living being and out the other end is very likely a product of modern hyper efficient compound bows using sleek carbon fibre arrows. Not to mention that guy was clearly meant to be wearing the costume department's idea of armour.
"Even has my name on it, kinda cool"
So what you are saying is, if you shoot something with that arrow...
*They got penetrated by Cameron Hanes*
Cameron Hanes has penetrated hundreds of deer
@@isaacBCM Kinky
He can reach out and touch people at 230 yards
There is literally a show called “Arrow”
i can't believe it wasn't in here
that wasn't in here? seriously?!
@@sandywolfr26 And what is even more stupid is that i don´t think that there is anyone in either film or tv that is better and looks better than Amell with a bow.
José Pinto super disappointing to not get any commentary on Stephen Amell
@@josepinto4451 Probably because they made a serious effort to make the archery as "realistic" as possible on Arrow (at least at first). I remember Stephen Amell telling a story about when he first got cast and the stunt coordinator sat him down and showed him a reel of archery done wrong in movies over the years and how he wasn't allowed to replicate any of their mistakes. I'm sure there's still a million mistakes over the years, but on the whole it's way better than most.
I know a thing or two about archery myself, I was a maxed out Archer thief on Skyrim....

Until I took an arrow to the knee

Or as I call it: the META.
Of course skyrim, always sneak archer
Of course Legolas is a master archer,he's 2931 years old by this point 🏹

“I don’t know how he’s aiming, but I know he’s got hella obliques” 😂
This is the most open minded, positive dude I’ve seen
I love these break down videos because all these guys talk with such passion. AMAZING.
Me on YT at 11pm:
RUclips: wanna see some archery movie scenes..?
And if you clicked on it, that would be a yes.
3:40am for me but I share the sentiment :D
@@Axsdnyd and here I was at 5:40am... fml xD
Here i am ready to go to school at 7 30
4am
Do you hunt if your shirt off?
"If I looked like that I would".
Actually looks like that
That's exactly what I though. The dude literally runs a marathon every day of his life and works out harder than anyone I've seen.
Better than Rambo.... 😂
My thoughts exactly 😂
I'm so disappointed he didn't do Arrow. I watched this video specifically hoping for that show.
16:50 "If you want to train a longbowman, start with his grandfather."
Cameron Hanes looks like he's having so much fun talking about what he loves doing, so it made it so much more fun to watch.
fact
yeah, right? it's impressive how much he knows about it
I love how he never says the character's level of expertise or target is unrealistic. He just analyzes and explains how what they do is possible.
I hate how he doesn't do it. Almost every scene was indeed impossible.
Federico Lucchi hope you’re not talking about Legolas
@@bravetitangrizzly Those arrows were probably CGI.
Adam Floro nope. 100% real. Legolas has lived and trained in those forrests for a thousand years. How dare you.
Federico Lucchi Never say impossible, blind luck and no good aim can still lead to a bullseye at extremely long ranges.
Love that this man is classing it up while casually running a marathons worth of miles a day in 2-3 seshes.
omg please do another one of these, archery is so interesting and this guy is great
I know the woman who did the motion capture for Brave, she's a real archer!
They did an excelent study not only on the archery moviment but on hair too. They have been improving more and more since before Monster SA with boo shirt and Sully hair
The lack of Robin Hood: Men in Tights is disturbing.
And Gladiator!
And why no arrow
@@rileyphillips6543 The arrow expert didn't review Arrow... such a missed opportunity.
We're men!
Men in tights!
TiGhTs!
Tights!
Because RH:Most is perfect, duh.
I was literally drooling over that Compound Bow...🤤🥰💜
"When someone's shooting arrows at me I want to run east and west" had me 😂😂😂
