LIZZIE: Coming up on this spectacular we've got
unicycle football.
CARLY: We've got botaoshi.
LIZZIE: We have something called sepaktakraw.
CARLY: We've got Johnball.
LIZZIE: Johnball!
CARLY: Johnball!
But first, cheese rolling.
LIZZIE: Hey everybody, I'm Lizzie.
CARLY: And I'm Carly
LIZZIE: And we thought we'd spend the entire day today
talking about fringe sports videos.
CARLY: Yeah, there are an unbelievable amount of videos
on the internet about sports that you did not know existed.
LIZZIE: Yeah, I mean it's fine if you
like baseball, basketball, soccer, I don't know what
any of those are, but these videos, you've probably
never seen before and they're amazing.
CARLY: They're out of control.
So the first one we're going to talk to you about
is cheese rolling.
The objective is to chase a block of cheese down a hill.
This is the 2013 cheese rolling competition at Cooper's Hill.
This guy looks like a guy I went to college with.
LIZZIE: Me too.
CARLY: Everyone went to college with a guy
that looked like this.
OK, this dude is Kenny Rackers, who travelled 4,000 miles just
to compete.
LIZZIE: So, here he goes.
CARLY: Oh, my god.
LIZZIE: Watch him.
CARLY: Watch him go.
LIZZIE: Look at Kenny go.
Look at Kenny go.
Look at him.
Oh, my god!
CARLY:Oh!
Oh, that guy just did a face plant.
LIZZIE: Wait, wait, wait.
Look, look, look.
CARLY: OK, bottom right here, we have
a man who is most definitely unconscious.
LIZZIE: The amount of face plants
that happen in this video, I don't understand
why this thing is not bigger.
MILES: So guys, I got a crazy video for you.
It's from Japan.
It's a wild sport called botaoshi.
Can you say that?
CARLY: No.
MILES: Just try, botaoshi.
Botaoshi, it's real easy.
Anyway, this is a military sport from Japan
and I'll give you a little bit more
in here when we start getting into it.
Are you ready?
CARLY: I'm ready.
MILES: Here we go.
This video is from, actually a Military Academy in Japan.
The white team is trying to protect the pole
from the blue invaders who are trying to pull the pole down.
CARLY: Is this just a military game?
MILES: It started as a military exercise,
but believe it or not, they play it in elementary schools.
It seems kind of sad--
CARLY: Who let's their kid play this?
MILES: What do you mean who lets their kid?
A great parent.
CARLY: He just ran over three peoples' heads to get there.
MILES: Yes, that's called athleticism.
CARLY: That guy is ripping his own shirt off.
MILES: He's angry.
CARLY: Would you play this?
MILES: No, I'm too fragile, my face, I can't mess this up.
CARLY: Yeah.
ALI: All right you guys, this is Johnball.
This JOHNBALLforever channel has 71 subscribers.
MILES: Criminal.
ALI: You basically just hit the ball back and forth
at each other trying to hit other people.
Sort of like dodge ball with bats.
MILES: Oh, OK.
What country did this start in?
Is this like a uniquely--
ALI: Right here in the US of A.
MILES: America--
ALI: America
MILES: Johnball
ALI: USA, USA.
MILES: There was even a mom.
ALI: Yep, there's a mom.
MILES: This mom-- oh, schooled by a mom.
Oh, right in the dome.
Oh, this guy has--
ALI: Oh, whoa.
That was a cartwheel.
MILES: He's in tights.
ALI: Anybody can play.
MILES: Well, we got to go because we're
going to get some bats and some balls
and we're j-balling it up right now in the parking lot.
ALI: Yeah, we are.
MILES: Sorry
ALI: It's on, it's on.
MILES: Later.
I wish I pushed further.
So this sport we're about to watch is called sepaktakraw.
The rules are similar to volleyball.
You hit the ball over the net to your other opponent,
try and make them not return the ball.
And you can use feet, head, flips, kicks, all of that.
EARNEST: Flips are the best part.
MILES: It started off as a ancient Chinese military
exercise.
EARNEST: It's probably more fun this way,
than instead of in the military.
MILES: I can already feel my hips
dislocating just when I watch it.
It's very uncomfortable for me.
OK, that was a can-can kick.
EARNEST: High kicks, right?
Look at them trying to block it with their feet.
That is what is amazing.
It looks like the girls are just as
good as the guys at this game, and I think that's pretty cool.
MILES: Yeah, I don't think there's
any advantage you get over the other one.
I think maybe women might be even more of an advantage
because women are more flexible than men.
We're stiff.
We're cavemen.
EARNEST: Well, speak for yourself.
MILES: Oh, hitch kick, for my dancers out there.
EARNEST: So this video just has 3,000 views,
which is ridiculous because this has
got to be the most exciting sport.
MILES: I highly recommend that you
are the 913th subscriber to this channel.
EARNEST: You want to know who the 912th was?
ALEX: Miles, are you a fan of football?
MILES: Dude, I love the Dodgers.
ALEX: Are you a fan of two wheels on a bicycle?
MILES: No.
ALEX: Well, I've got a video for you Miles, unicycle football.
MILES: What?
ALEX: This is a real league, by the way.
MILES: Are the rules basically football, but with a unicycle?
ALEX: If you fall off the unicycle like that,
he's now out of play.
MILES: Oh, killer air.
ALEX: This is definitely a niche thing.
MILES: No?
ALEX: They never tell you what the wives' reaction to them
wanting to play this is.
MILES: Assuming that there are wives to have reactions.
It's pretty hard core.
I like that it's funky, you can bring your own style to it.
There's no real uniform.
And so I think any sport like that,
it allows for a little bit of self expression.
ALEX: If you want to open your sports mind,
subscribe to birdsiview.
MILES: This guy has a beer and he's running on the side line
like he has something to do with the game.
ALEX: He's clearly the coach.
MILES: Ah.
ALEX: Because you can't coach the sober.
CARLY: Which one of these crazy sports was your favorite?
LIZZIE: Oh, [BLEEP].
CARLY: Tell us in the comments.
You are ruining this, more than I ruined it.
LIZZIE: I'm so tired.
Do that, and then play us out-- I'm crying a little bit.
They're just watering up.
CARLY: You've probably seen a lot of things
today that you didn't expect you'd ever see.
Which crazy sport was your favorite?
Post a comment and tell us.
LIZZIE: Also, there's a playlist after the show
with even more crazy stuff.
CARLY: Yeah, and if we missed anything,
you should tell us using the hashtag #youtubenation.
LIZZIE: Yes, please.
Now play us out chessboxing.
BOTH: Chessboxing!
