The Try Guys Try The Ancient Olympics

With the Olympic Games ready today, we are going to do the Olympic Games in the Greek style and not like current Greek but

ancient

Greek. The Olympics are an incredible global competition of basically everything I'm terrible at. I love the Olympics because they are like war, but no one really dies. We are here at Getty Ville, which is one of the largest collections of Greek and Roman antiquities, to learn from an archeology education specialist all about the

ancient

Olympic Games. The Olympic Games are called the Olympic Games because they're in Olympia, so that's where they started. in 776 BC.

C. and lasted more than a thousand years. I'm not good at sports, but I like mythology. I can appreciate the studious side of the Olympic Games. The games probably symbolize preparation for war activities and it is also simply because you are Honoring the Gods, I just assume they were something like our Gam today only with a lot more white people. As long as you were Greek, you could come from anywhere in the Mediterranean and come to the games where you represented your city state, your city state. As it is, I was very excited about your competition today.

I am representing the great state of Namia, which is where Zeus the King of the Gods is from. I am representing the great city of Athens because it is the most New York and we assume that Athens was just like the Jews of Greece, I will represent the city state of Corinth, which of course is related to Poseidon and we all know that I have a great history with him Ocean, oh oh, he's vomiting. I'll represent the city state of Delhi because they just have a lot of temples and they do weird things to them. oral.

I love oral. How are they different from the modern Olympic Games? Women are not allowed in the Olympic Games. And there is no really good fabric. So naked is good. Who do you think is going? To win, you first have to take off your clothes. They oil themselves before events to protect themselves from the sun. They officiate. We need our oil. Yes that's fine. Thank you. I'm sorry. Katie, what do I do? much thicker than you think W is luxurious I don't care so everyone is naked they are oily they are dirty and no women are allowed right, it sounds like our kind of party, let's go to that Fanny no Keith, you have to understand that Fanny, of You actually have artifacts here at the Getty Villa that represent some of these events.

Yeah, so this would be a men's class Victor and there are no weight classes so you could take on anyone who isn't circumcised. It's a sign of being a barbarian. you circumcise your penis and sometimes athletes tie their penis. She said you had to tie the thread to the fork. I'm out, I'm out too, no comment, that's a job for Keith, so bring home the penis thread, sorry. Rachel, thanks Rachel, that's a lovely dress, yes you look great, she said, tie it up like a water balloon, there's not much, it's quite shrunken from the pressure. I'll be honest, it's like putting a leash on a snake, yeah, well.

Your snakes are going to escape, mine will stay still if you have worked to be worthy of going to Olympia I love to win I have modeled my life after Hercules Hercules killed his wife and his children What if you have done nothing lazy or vile? I'm not above cheating, so, yeah, I'm probably going to cheat to get through this. If you have trained properly for 10 months straight, you can move forward with a good and positive attitude towards Olympia. How about 10 minutes straight for everyone who competes in the Olympics, whether in ancient times or this year in Brazil, we will see the same thing happen: the best of the best go head to head and today you will see the exact opposite of that.

It's time to get it right, yeah no one else jumped to Olympus, oh you

guys

actually jump together, it's time to jump on some dirt, court Eugene, damn we got it, what are the events that Will they be recreated today? They will do three pentathlon events. long jump Discus and wrestling, but the running race is the most important if you want your name to appear in the Olympiad, you have to win the running race. The long jump is extremely strange, very different from today, you use weights, you probably ran about 10m and jumped. On one foot he rose into the air and curled into a ball and landed like a gymnast so that your footprint can be seen on the earth and we are naked and you are naked oh God, good Lord, what team am I representing?

Corinth Corinth come on do this yes, it's not bad, let's go for two. I didn't do a great job. I'm going to jump more. Done, what's my team again for Corin? It was an inch more, an inch more, yes, corn, use the momentum of the weights to It has been shown in modern experiments that guiding yourself forward 3 to 5 pounds increases the distance you can jump, oh, you fall, you fell, like this that if you fall, if there is a big mark on the ground, the disqualification does not count, but on the ground it does. I'll take a minute to look at Eugene's butt, okay, that's funny, okay, one for the ladies, wow, it's ready oby T doesn't count the slide, he counts from where his back foot is Bo, no one likes that Deli, nobody likes Deli, why? it smells there's a lot of fl this is this is this is It's fertilizer this is fertilizer you're jumping in the sand like today right you're jumping in the dirt come on corn ddy limping to the end wow pretty good you got me Bo nice brother I'm going to say no, no I understood that happy God, oh no, not entirely, come on.

Some of the names of officials include words that indicate they can hit you and then incidentally people comment on the kind of things they could hit you to ask for forgiveness. I got spanked, yeah, and cheating is big, so if you cheat, you can get spanked. If you start wrong, you can be whipped right there in front of everyone. My name is Ned Fulmer, Neia State University. Yeah, bro, no, he just ran by, let's go to round two. op make no mistake oh there's a dog oh hello oh don't pee it smells so he's going to want to pee here determination begins in the mind ends in the leg how is married Ned?

I don't know you check your butt there's dirt on your butt pick up dirt on your butt what right where you would poop we're not going and the winner of the long jump is Dela man's Olympian so I don't even get a medal it's just no you just get a palm, you can have a victory palm by winning your individual event, well at Olympia you literally win an olive wreath and some ribbons tied around you, but there's no money, nothing big, no metal ribs. Next is that we will release the album. and throw your arm back and make a big swing and come up high and let go and never spin much and modern discus throwers when interviewed are pretty horrified at the prospect of missing out on all that good rotation which is like throwing a Frisbee. not even olive oil makes this especially hard to hold W good throw come back The disk oh this is heavy it's something like our disk in art is often bigger don't overdo it Eugene how do you think he did it?

Let's discuss whether we get more olive oil for his hands no, no, no, you went a little further than you wanted. I know if I throw it at a 45° angle it will travel further because I went to the Science Olympiad, nerd, cheater, it was disqualified, so we didn't mark it, you shouldn't cross that line, bro. I will T oh no n n oh no, you cheat, you beat Olympia. Well it was a good pitch, well a terrible one, aren't you entertained? C like a being, no, I'll be T. Better than Ned, first try, boom, now that I'm doing well, I want to try it, okay?

God, can you give me a little pat for good luck? I think you're starting to like the third try, papow, both hands are useless. I can't use both hands. The Greeks care a lot about form, so you probably want to look beautiful while doing it. I'm the last one to go, which means I'm the furthest one to throw. Everyone knows Corin's got your ass right. happy day he hurt my arm doing it I'll tell you what wasn't easy for my doll wow same distance go oh up net yes up net it looks like NAD is 36 feet cute I'm 41 feet you're a foot and a half taller than him, so 372 and Eugene wiped us out it's cool and the puck winner is Eugene and the losers go but we're going to fight for glory anyway it's time to fight sorry I'm careful about fighting you got some rules You're not supposed to gouge your eyes out, you're not supposed to bite and you're supposed to use finesse, um and El, in your throws, so today is more like wrestling than the other events I'm going to wrestle in. .

Eugene, Zach and I are going to hug. and in some rolls, you start standing up and very often put your foreheads together in a kind of lunging position and then your job is to knock your opponent down and leave their shoulder or hip in the dust where you can see the mark on their oily body Happy Go, go, lower Z, keep going, it's so slippery, get on your knees, it's such a sexual grip, it's hard to grab a man when he's covered in oil, this is for Gloria, don't hurt yourselves up there, go, What's up, what's up, baby? wow, a little too much, that was different from ours.

Abyy, how do we know all this right? If you're an archaeologist, it's infuriating because we don't know much. There are thousands of years of information. Most of it is missing, so we have to find weird things to give us information, it's incredibly fun to come up with scenarios about how it could have worked and wait for someone to discover more evidence in Ned's defense, he has a very big butt, it weighs on him the third round, each one has one point, so in this round we will determine the winner if we both lose at the same time, we can tie, that's true, fight for gree, come in, we were only going to tie when you are covered, you don't know how to cut , eug.

I just yelled in their faces, good game, you

guys

are idiots and the winner of the wrestling event in the pentathlon is the Thean Olympian. This is for my wife and all the people in the great state of Namia, but Eugene won the The pentathlon doesn't matter because it all comes down to the race that has poop on his face, so I think he's still the loser, being the Faster is what counts, but they are not timing, you have your left foot forward, your right foot. back you lean forward but you don't go as low as we do today to push we know that sometimes there were ropes that were lowered so you couldn't start too early are the Olympic athletes barely ready and yes, ready yes?

You win the foot race at Olympia the whole calendar is based on you so what can you do a photo shoot on a calendar? They don't have that but they know your name, Zach and I won't do so well today, that's my biggest competition, that's right, Eugene, I'm coming for you, baby Hercules, Hercules, except this Hercules isn't killing his wife. three 2 1 happy tank, we are reconstructing the Olympic oath taken on the first day, you hold in your hands the flesh of a boore that has been sacrificed, oh my God, on an altar to Zeus. I swear by the flesh of this savage war sacrifice to Zeus, defender of oaths, that I will have a succession of 10 months and will do everything in my power to disgrace the Z.

Did you say everything? I won't do anything you can. Don't put words in the middle of an oath Zach, you're holding a sacred boore, think for a damn second I think we're in big trouble. I beat Eugene Glory, eternal glory, well, at least for four years, we are equally Well, congratulations to n on his victory, congratulations to Zach and I and technically tying with Eugene, this is proof that if you work hard you can be liian, oh my god, if we were holding a succession of Olympic Games that had never ended, this would be the 698th Olympiad near the end of the four years so Jay's son Eugene takes the podium, oh my god, this is huge , the goddess of Victory Nik is with you Eugene de Delie holding the palm, you are the victor in the many skills of the after having overcome the pentathlon in long jump with discus and having fought well in honor of Zeus, we crown you with a crown of olive trees.

I wish the Olympic Games included these sports today. I mean, who wouldn't want to see a bunch of naked people rolling around in the dirt? Ned of Nemia, son of James, come to the podium please, in this 100th and tenth Olympiad, hold the palm for the victory of the stadium because of your speed, your name will be associated with this Olympiad forever, a calendar is mentioned , well you serve as the name of the calendar you would be on it in honor of Zeus now you have been granted the Olive Reef the fact that we are naked gave us this feeling of purity as if it were just your body, your mind and your determination I noticed that They have tapes.

Did Keith and I get a tape? Not because you are losers. I can't recover. Do you mind? Sure? You know I have a lot of respons. I didn't like the Olympic Games that are coming now. I think they are great. I still don't like the Olympics because I smell and feel terrible. I've learned a lot about manure and oil and you four are really sorry, that's how most of the shots in honor of Greece are, obviously this is the fat It's up to us, we've saved all our goo and made it brought here for you to judge, sometimes they save the material, the oil, the sweat, the dirt and put it in a container and the gym they practice at may even sell it, I'mthinking. that one is pretty clean and the Goof belongs to g wow you really love me you love me thank you so much for educating us on the accuracy of our attempt to recreate the Greek until next time what will we try next?

I lost everything.
