you can see the shadow from Timo Bolls hand on Ma Long when Timo rise his left hand in the air! I had seen it very early. I guess I see much more than other peoples :D
Jesus Christ loves you and died for your sins, everyone sins and deserves hell but Jesus (God) died for our sins paying the price of them, Believe That And Be Saved
Two legends from Europe and Asia smiling all around talking about their good times in their career. What an heartwarming video! Really enjoyed it and I hope Ma long can pull out his every potential he can make and fight against himself for his honorable final :)

こんなに素晴らしい動画を本当にありがとう！お2人が世界のトップで活躍され続けることを願っています。 Thank you very much for this great video. I hope Long and Timo continue to play top of the world. from one of Japanese fan！
Can we please take a moment and cherish the awesomeness that is gathered there in front of the camera????? Insane to see these two giants of our sport talking about their ways of playing and training like if they told you: "well yeah... I just bought a cappuccino." Great, great video and a superb display of international camaraderie.
I was deeply impressed when I witnessed Mr.Timo Boll friendly paid his after-game signiture time to the last one of his huge fans waiting in long line to see him at 2018 World Tour Grand Final in Incheon, Korea. Respect to his personality with true humanity for his fans!
Oh my gosh I had no idea this existed. Two legends of the sport! Edit: I never expected Ma Long to be so humble and funny (maybe because his sheer sill is so intimidating on the table).
Ma Long wirkt ja echt sympatisch. Interessantes und witziges Video. Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass Ma Long so viel Humor hat, wo er doch an der Platte sehr emotionslos wirkt. Zusammen mit dem Gespräch mit Harimoto mein Lieblingsinterview. Mach weiter mit deinen tollen Videos und viel Erfolg nächstes Jahr bei Olympia!
Ma Long has such a quiet and calming voice, but when he speaks, everybody shuts up. He has the aura of a legend and you know that every word he says is 100% true. Such a humble man
Got to learn a lot of humility from Timo Boll in this interview, a quality many sportsperson miss nowadays, especially those who are at regional/local stage!
Loved it! Thank you so much for this Timo!! I just love how Ma Long is so sweet and soft-spoken off the table but impeccably strong on the court, amazing guy. Would love it if there's an opportunity for you guys to do another interview with him this year lol
Thank you so much for doing this! You two seem to get along very with mutual respect for one another! You're my idol too, and I think in one of your interviews about playing fair, you said " Table tennis is my true love, and you don't cheat your true love" , that inspired me a lot and I was able to apply that to other spheres of my life as well, thank you!
I thought you were having a video interview with Malong as the background just perfectly divide into 2 screens. I was shocked when he tapped your shoulder in the end 🤣🤣
"You became more consistent and mentally stable than before. How is that?" The greatest player of all time: "I changed my equipment and hairstyle. I think you should try too." Ok, Ma, just Ok.
Wow what an Interview of 2 living legends this is so good to see the respect they have for each other after all these years competing. For me both are real role models in table tennis and life. Met Timo several times in my life and the respect he has for all people is incredible, thank you for being such an great ambassador for the Sport that we love.
Oh my, this video is literally made for me, as a Chinese who understand English, I could just listen to this and do other stuff, but I have to watch it again bc MA Long is way too cute, I have to watch his facial expression through out this interview:) Love during this interview, they seem like they could sort of understood each other just by a few words and hand movements. Thank you for making this interview, I have been watching u guys playing table tennis for many years now both live & recordings. LOVE love ur skills, styles and performances, wish u both well and healthy, so that u could both keep playing (a bit selfish there), it's a BIG pleasure to have u both in this industry:)
Wonderful interview (and all the web lessons I am seeing lately). Thank you for using your place inside the top of the sport and sharing what's it's like to be there (and sharing your friends who are 'up there' with us too). I think we, out here, daydream about times like you are having, and your sharing of them in your videos helps make our dreams feel more real. Stay strong! Be happy! (ps... I write this as you are fully immersed in the Olympics so I cross my fingers that you find good fortune through the rest of the matches!)
Amazing that you did this, just amazing. I'm blown away. I especially liked where you didn't ask him about himself, but about something outside of himself, that way we can really hear what a person's thoughts are. I think people open up more that way, like for example you can ask "What do you do yourself to train", getting a closed answer like "I do 1 2 3", or u can ask "What do you think are some of the most important training exercises and why?", which I think will lead to more open and informative answers, which also include the 1 2 3 but a lot more.
TIMO & MA LONG both of you are my best TT Players and Legends; one from the German and the other from the Chinese School. Both of you are humble, modest, very polite and challenging at the same time. All TT fans worldwide will respect you, follow your guidance and remember your games and playing skills for years to come. Best Regards from Egypt, where this sport is getting more popular now.
Einfach 2 sehr sympatische Sportler 👍🏼 ich habe früher fast jedes Spiel in Dillenburg für Gönnern von Timo gesehen und er ist für mich der beste/bodenständigste Sportler, mit dem ich jemals sprechen konnte 🤗
The only question I need an answer to is why Timo boll isn't at a million subs already. Btw the Questions Timo sir asked covered alot of what I needed plus I am so happy to see two of my most favourite players in a single video just talking and laughing
This is what makes a player a legend. The humbleness. N Ma Long is truly the 🐐, the way he approached Timo in the last minute and making Timo his role model is something very rare u find from a player.
Thank you very much for this video timo! Loved the conversation between two legends of the game ❤️ I hope our game continues to grow stronger and stronger 🏓💜❤️
das ist so cool, ich habe ganze zeit gedacht, es ist fern Interview und auf einmal kommt Ma Long Hand zu Timo... :-D Sehr gut. it's so cool, I was thinking all the time, it's a far away interview and suddenly Ma Long Hand comes to Timo :-D Very good.
Great interview, thanks for doing it and for sharing. Although I haven't had the chance to play seriouly for a long time, I still very much enjoy watching and you Timo and Ma Long are clearly 2 of my favourite all time players! It's refreshing to see such a sincere discussion.
Great video Timo! Thanks a lot! I can offer myself to do the Chinese-English subtitle translation next time when you have interview videos like this! So fans can get literally what the Chinese players! :) salute!
Thanks Timo! Although I'm a bigger fan of Chinese players I appreciate what you are doing to popularize the sport in EU and the rest of the world. What do you think is needed for EU to catch up to China in popularity and skill? I live in Bulgaria and here the sport is somewhat popular at the casual level, but at the pro level I think we are struggling a lot. I think it has to do with insufficient sponsorship and therefore lack of proper coaching and motivation from the players. Younger talents need better coaching and more exposure to big tournaments. I think that is the main problem in EU I think we lack younger players in big tournaments, we mostly see veterans play. I think ITTF while focusing on popularity, should also focus on helping local clubs around the world find sponsorship and improve quality. Also I think it's very important to focus on professional coaching. We need to have coaching standards that are above a certain level in every country, so that we would not fall behind. Web coaching is very innovative as well that's why I appreciate what you and others like EmRatThich are doing. My last question is do you think that different colour rubbers will help popularize the sport, I'm also worried a lot that they could affect gameplay what do you think? Thank you!
Nice video Timo!! 💯 Appreciate all the work. So glad to see my fav players sit together and have such a fun and informative talk. Time to do another one in 2020? I can help with the Chinese subtitles 😄
I am from India and now adays , there are tensions going on between us and china, but still you both , specially timo, my favourite players ever, hope tensions will over soon..😊
Wow! TB releases some really special content. Fans appreciate this for sure. Danke Timo! (Thanks Timo!) Btw: I have read his book "Timo Boll: Mein China" (by Friedhard Teuffel/Timo Boll). Highly recommended!
5:55 so we have to thank Ma Long for the development of the Dignics 09C!!! Timo, is it really than when you started to work on this rubber together with Butterfly?
@@timoboll8381 Whaw, Timo, you answered! Thank you! You really are a role model for the whole table tennis community! I saw you playing many times, including the time in Liege when you won against Ma Long ! Me and my son were cheering for you very enthusiastically! I like to think we helped you win ! 😉 Also I am playing the 09C now, on both sides of the racket, and I find they're the best rubbers I have ever had!
Hi Timo, very interesting interview and a phantastic atmosphere between the two of you. I had a question in mind that might have been an addition to your first one. When was he initially introduced to the sport and from when on did he put out these training numbers that he mentioned? I was completely blown away by the amount of time spent. As I am just a beginner in TT, I'd also be very interested in the actual implications he felt with the introduction of plastic balls. Is there also a change in the actual racket "technology" that had a similar impact on his playstyle during the years (I am a little older, so I remember the wood being completely different at times)? Thanks so much for your efforts, this channel and your personality.
That's why I love tabletennis, because it's still a pure sport! No big money and companies involved to ruin it's purity and the players are enjoying the sport for the love of it and not for profit's.
I thought it was a splitscreen the first 10 seconds, and then Timos hand went into Ma's frame, haha.
Same
Oh shoot! Yeah

I can see why Timo 😂

This is such an awkward interview. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

This interview is so wholesome, well done sir. Love it!

Great work from the cutter of this video. 4:00 cutting the translation while ma long still speaks. Great work , humble guys. Love table Tennis
I'm doing it by myself 🙏but I still need to improve
Timo Boll Hi there I make Table Tennis Analysis and Best points Videos , it would be great if you check it out 😉
Timo's questions were very on point and very helpful advice for intermediate and advanced players. More of this please!
Timo Boll and Ma Long, my favorite table tennis player! ❤️❤️

Thanks Timo! 2 of my favorite players smiling and talking about TT. What a great video.
Thanks for the video Timo! It was a pleasure to listen to such players as you and Ma Long. The friendly talk like that really is heartwarming.
Timo you are such a humble, gentle and genuine person, you’re a beautiful human being and a real role model.
this friendship and rivalry is so wholesome!
And they keep coming in English! This was awesome!

They are both too humble ....
I didn't expect that.
I like all of your videos so far. Thanks for sharing us Tim!
For me, Ma Long's Rio 2016 Final match hairstyle is the best. He should think about bringing it back.
I don't understand why anyone would dislike it... No reason at all!!??
They are both legends no matter what level they play
What an Incredible interview!!! Thanks Timo! I´m a big fan, from Brasil!
Two legends
