  • Baseball is a sport in which seemingly miraculous comebacks are a relatively common occurrence. It is a sport in which the winner really can never be known until the game is over. This “never give up” attitude has permeated into other sports, so today we’ll be looking at competitors who refused to quit until it was over, no matter how long that took.

    The longest ice hockey game is Storhamar Dragons vs Sparta Warriors in the Norwegian playoffs 2017. It ended in the 11th period with the total playing time of 3 hours 37 minutes and 14 seconds (total time including breaks approx. 8 hours and 30 minutes). Storhamar won 2-1 after the winning goal by the Norwegian Joakim Jensen.
    Funny note: The Norwegian police received several calls about missing people who had been at the match, to which the police had to reply that "the match is not over yet"

    Hockey games used to be aloud to end in ties like 10-20 years ago but other than in youth leagues all games if tied after regulation time go to a five minute overtime period and if still tied after that then it goes to a shootout that goes for no limited time in the regular season in the playoffs something like what you highlighted can happen as its just what’s called continuous overtime

    Chess world chambionships have come a long way. In the early days you would have to pay quite a large sum of money to actually challenge the world champion.

    Information is slightly out of date, the NHL doesn't permit ties anymore, and hasnt in years. These days during the regular season if the game is tied after 60 minutes they go to a 3 v 3 overtime period for 5 minutes. If its still tied, they go back and forth in a shoot-out format until there is a winner.
    Playoffs remain the same - 20 minute OT periods until there is a sudden-death winner.

      6k calories is equivalent to eating the recommend 2k calories/day.

      Someone explained about this at reddit
      It seems to be the season of repeating this common myth in the chess world. This ESPN article is the number one source of the misconception, and every time it comes up, some people dispute it, and other armchair scientists come up with bro-science to try and validate it.
      Sapolsky has never published any research that can back up his "6000-7000" calories a day figure, and infers this based solely on looking at chess player's heart rates and bloods pressures during the game. I hope you don't have to be an exercise physiologist to understand how heart rate variability does not directly correlate with energy expenditure. You are not burning as many calories while having a panic attack as you are while running a marathon.
      Actual exercise scientists have used indirect calorimetry - the research standard in exercise physiology for energy expenditure - to actually measure how many calories chess players burn while playing chess.
      Troubat et. al in 2008 found that chess players burned an average of 1.53kcal per minute at rest, and at most 1.67kcal per minute while playing chess - a modest 10% increase on average from doing nothing. 10% is a long way off the 300% that Sapolsky claims. Even if we take calorie expenditure at the top-end of the confidence interval, this would amount to only 960kcals spent over an 8 hour chess game: only a couple hundred calories higher than if you were just sitting watching TV.
      Rodoplu et al. presented their own study at the 9th international scientific conference of kinesiology, where they found chess players burned 138kcals on average in a 30 minute chess game, compared to 260 kcals while those same players went for a run for 30 minutes.
      There are lots of studies on HRV in chess, but sadly few in energy expenditure (as indirect calorimetry is resource expensive)
      People will say that these players in these studies are not top grandmasters, and not playing serious classical tournaments. While this is true, I think you would struggle to come up with an extra 4000 calories by saying "but a top tournament is more stressful." You should not pay this 6000 calorie claim any more heed until someone publishes some evidence in support of it - because so far, all evidence suggests the calorie expenditure during chess play is only a mild increase over rest.

    " The Isner-Mahut battle is a bizarre mix of the gripping and the deadly dull. It's tennis's equivalent of Waiting For Godot, in which two lowly journeymen comedians are forced to remain on an outside court until hell freezes over and the sun falls from the sky. Isner and Mahut are dying a thousand deaths out there on Court 18 and yet nobody cares, because they're watching the football. So the players stand out on their baseline and belt aces past each-other in a fifth set that has already crawled past two hours. They are now tied at 18-games apiece.
    On and on they go. Soon they will sprout beards and their hair will grow down their backs, and their tennis whites will yellow and then rot off their bodies."- Guardian report 23rd June.

    I know you don't like sports, but NHL hockey games during the regular season can not end in a tie. If tied after 60 minutes, there's 3 on 3 for five minutes. If no one scores, then the game goes to a shoot out, aka 'the skills competition', where it's one skater on a breakaway against the goalie. There's a minimum of three rounds (six shooters), if it's still tied, then it keeps going until one team scores and the other does not. (Personally, I disdain the shoot out).

    CART's 1980s Road America trips always had something interesting happen.
    Turns out in 1985, they had to stop the race due to rain and came back the next week. Only to find out the time clocks never stopped.

      There are 18 courts at Wimbledon, so some matches would have been shifted to different courts, but otherwise the impact was minimal. The larger problem was the slight delay in the men's second round, but it wasn't anything officials couldn't handle.

    I think the Wimbledon rules were changed so a match couldn't go as long again, similar to what happened with F1 in Canada in 2011 where was should have been a roughly 90 minute race was stopped for over 2 hours due to weather and ended up clocking in over 4 hours.

    • @reamick
      @reamick Год назад +3

      Right, and in fact, the rules were recently changed by the Grand Slam Board (really) on a trial basis so that all Grand Slam tournaments will use a tiebreaker on reaching 6-6 in the final set. The tiebreaker will be to 10 points with a two-point margin of victory required. Evidently the French Open was the only Slam left that hadn't adopted a tiebreaker.

      If you are talking about the Chess matches then no, they did not stay in thier seats the whole time. At the Grandmaster level they are allowed to get up to answer natures call during their opponents turn however both players are on a time clock so they can't leave for long. As soon as their opponent completes their turn the clock starts ticking for the other player. I would assume that even back then this was the case
