  • Almost lost his leg? :o I would give you mine for free! You need it more than I do!

  • I think he'd look better with short hair.  Every time I go snowboarding, all the other guys doing it are mopheads! Why?

  • shaun white is the coolest guy in the whole world!

  • Shaun White is ACE. I hope I'll be able to respresent Sweden one day, the same way he gets to represent America !!

  • i bet you i could do 1080 MC-twists six foot out of the pipe if i rode with him for a few months

  • all you have to say to anyone dissing the most successful rider in the industry is 1080 MC-twist...no not six foot out of the pipe...sixteen.

  • @tomwantssnow your stupid

  • hes so hot

    i wish he was my boyfriend.

  • He is good, thats all i have to say.

  • he sucks

  • i think snowboarders hate shaun cause he doesnt fit their description of snowboard hero. like it or not he is the best. sorry to break it to you, maybe you should grow your long red hair out, learn some tricks, and make 9 mil a year. as far as im concerned he is responsible for so much of snowboarding's progression in the last five years. he is a pioneer in the sport, not soon to be forgotten.

  • @nbatara He *was* the best, and is still one of the best, or the best at the half pipe.

    For most freestyle Travis Parker is pretty much the best, and there are others that are better at backcountry.

  • @tomwantssnow was? i think he just won the 2010 olympic half pipe gold...by a mile or two. no big deal, it was just a small competition anyway.

  • @nbatara it is a small competition, the half pipe only represents a small, small amount of what snowboarding is

  • Naochan87 ~The answer to your question is because he is making a ton of money. They do not like that he is rolling in the dough and that he makes millions in endorsements. He is very private and family oriented and does not hang with the snowboard crowd, therefore they feel he thinks he is better than they are. He is totally down to earth and sincere. It's shame they don't take time to know him instead of making judgments.

  • danny davis would have raped him. stupid FIS contest. snowboarders should boycott the olympics anyways

  • Aww, his hat hides his glorious red mane....

  • omg he is so hot

  • I wanna know why people who hate Shaun White watch the videos he is in. If you don't like him, waste your time watching someone else!! Or get a life.

  • The hat....WHY?? So, so bad.

  • @TheShhSecret that's what happens when the US team is dressed by Ralph Lauren. But I think it looks good on him. It's very ACDC-esque...or maybe not :P

  • Congrats!! Well done!! Well earned!! Cheers & applause!!

  • The Damn Automatics have two songs in thefull length Project X on Fuel TV. They are on I tunes and the web. Google them.

  • Shaun White is a very talented snoboarder. But his character is an asshole ego -.-

  • love shaun white, just love him hes so amazing at everything hes amazing, the bst, great songs, great videos, great DC boards just an all around hero

  • @thelifewithoutfear

    sorry bro but for real,

    1st:shaun white is the most hated rider in the snowboard community. no other pro's like him, they only ride with him because teams make them on tours and shoots.

    2nd: he only got gold because kevin pearce and danny davis were out. danny davis has been beat shauns faggy ass all offseason at the rev tour n such.

    3rd: hes only like by people who dont really snowboard, or worse, people u think they do

    4th.: he has nothing o do with dc.

  • Lol at your number 1. You don't know anything about pros so don't pretend you do.

  • @Stanky802 hahahahahahhaha i was just kidding and trying to be a faggot ass poser snowboarder ahaha dont wory i know and i hate sean white 2, hes like the snowboard version of ryan shekler

  • I´m new in this snowboard subject, but I don´t understand why you say that the snowboard community hates him? I think he´s really good at what he does

  • .......first person my ass

  • Shaun White is Groovin and that's all she wrote:)

  • He deserves everything amazing thing that comes his way. Shaun White is the best!!!!!

  • shaun white is just so hot...

  • lmao :D

  • Shaun White is awsome he rules!!!! He's like the best snowboarder in the US maybe even the word!!!!!!!!!!!!!HE ROCKS ,YAHOO!!!!!!!

  • he failed in the second run= =

  • well.. he did 2 doublecorks and a double mctwist 1260...

  • Wasn't he in that movie "Mask"?

  • Hi...How r u?

    I just came cross at ur channel..Look nice..

    Add me n sub me

  • Why are you guys so freaking pissed off that Shaun threw his arms up in the air when he won, or if he said "I was just showing them what i could do!" He won a freaking OLYMPIC gold medal.. Until you have won an olympic gold medal, and not thrown your arms up, dont get mad at him because he was excited all of his dedication paid  off! HE CAN SAY that he was showing people what he can do, because he DID show us what he can do, that doesnt make him cocky, that makes him confident and talented.

  • the "if you can't do it, shut up" argument is a little childish, but i do agree that he's not cocky.

  • Shaun takes home an olympic medal, earns $9,000,000 (+ sponsor incomes) a year at the age of 23, and lives a happy fruitful life training on his own halfpipe while 4 couches are watching.

    Peetu Piiroinen who won silver lives here in Finland where are 0 good places to train snowboarding, he has only one coach, (shared with the other finnish snowboarders), he didn't have a complete training season before the olympics.

    Imagine if he had the same circumstances as your american gold boy...

  • Im Canadian and I hope for the most part Canada rips it up in the medal standings, but seeing Shaune White snowboards has made me a big fan!

  • My god you people need to grow up with the ginger shit STFU you sound like a bunch of little 5 graders FU.

    Anywa yay I'm so happy for him he won gold :)

  • he would look way better if he cut his hair

  • im happy his so god at something because he is ugly as fuck

  • i haven't watched snbrding for years- on seeing the olympic comp i was pretty impressed, but on seeing white's hi/fast start and aired entry into the pipe, he was on a whole level above everyone - it was really obvious to me. but on that first massive, massive air, i was like, "ok, so this due is THE DUDE; the others was just awesome". a kick-ass old-school move (huge air), better/bigger than anyone has ever seen, proves who is the king.

  • watch my videos

    jessedvargus

  • ginger power

  • AHAHA

  • haha shaun white had to know he was going to win this gold.. i mean he's shaun white for gods sake.

  • GING- HA

    GING-HA

    GIIINNNGEEER!

  • GINGER PEOPLE HAVE SOULS!

  • That luge accident video is still at

    w w w OlympicsWinter2010 com

  • Best pefromance! Great snowboarder!

    All haters can say anything that he is gay, ugly, unprofessional, snoby or else. But he won 2 gold medals in a row...so if you can't even get to Olympics then you can just shut your mouth.

    Go SHAUN!

  • So what if he threw his arms in the air? He won the gold medal. You would do the same.

  • @Mast3rSkillz WHEN YOU SCORE SHOW IT!!!!!SOCCOR,FOOTBALL ETC.YOU SHOW IT...THIS AINT POLO OR BADMINTON THE SPORTS YOUR MOM TAUGHT YOU TO PLAY BUDDY!!!!!!!!

  • so basically if your good, you should pretend like you're not so other people won't feel bad about not being as good thats retarded who doesn't want to celebrate winning, actually just shrugging it off like it was nothing might even be more arrogant, besides whats the point of winning something if you can't be proud and excited about it, especially at the Olympics which is the best of the best (p.s. learn how to spell won)

  • at the end of the day, Shaun takes home an olympic medal and adds it to his medal collection, earns $9,000,000 a year at the age of 23, and lives a happy fruitful life

    .. while you... are sitting by your pc, probably jerking off to porn while irrationally commenting on Shaun's winning reaction. i think your purpose is to get some attention... some hate-response from others, anything, so you wouldn't feel alone.

    so i'm helping you, in a way, by giving you some attention. hope this helps ;)

  • Well said.

  • hear hear! haha

  • Comment removed

  • How do you know he has a tiny little red prick? Do you fantasize about it that often?

  • GINGERS HAVE NO SOULS

  • hey i know stupid gingers that our retards but not shaun white.

  • shawn is now my snowboard hero...

  • Can you do what he does? No you can't so stop criticizing you stupid fuck.

  • Your argument makes no sense because I'm not criticizing his snowboarding skills. You are the stupid fuck

  • When you say that he embarrases the US on the world stage, you don't know what you're talking about. Where are you from? Can you rep your country and win 2 straight golds? Probly not. But I don't know why I even bother wasting my time on someone like you.

  • @Mast3rSkillz Right... Im so embarrassed that the US kicked so much ass in the Half pipe...

    He was exited to win an olympic gold medal, Dont be a sore looser because your country didn't bring home gold you Punk.

  • he needs a haircut

  • i have long hair and am a boy.

    hippis rule PEACE

  • Congratulations Shaun! We're extremel yproud of you. You kicked ass on the half pipe :)

    I agree with someone that commented.. he's very cute.

  • Damn, shut up with the hair its not your fucking problem. If yes then get a life... Hes good and thats the point!

  • carrot top jr

  • ya know...

    ...this kid used to be cool...

    ....now he's just a corporate media whore.

  • @treid100182 You are just jealous. This guy is an inspiration to kids and teens.

  • @treid100182 and your just an attention whore whoopie

  • Watching the twelve best Snowboarders in the world was astonishing enough, watching Shaun White on his last run, when he'd already WON the Gold was a privilege!

    And to make it even better, the man was genuinely overjoyed at his performance - not smug, not crowing, just plain ecstatic.

    The guy is a world-class athlete, and better then that, someone you can tell your Grandkids about!

  • I don't think I'd call that ego. I'd call that confidence.

    He did go out there yesterday and show us what he could do. He is right. He's on a completely different level than his competitors.

    My 55 year old father called me today and was raving about how he enjoyed watching Shaun White snowboard last night.  He's never seen snow, and he was excited.

    You've got to give the kid credit. He is the best of the best, and he brought home the gold for the US.

    How can you not root for that?

  • What did he say after he won..that NBC had to appoligize for?

    Anyone?

  • @jgs727 i think they recorded something they werent meant to.. thats what i heard :D

  • He didn't say anything, but his coach said "shit" and "f*ck".

  • can anyone post a link of shaun's final run?

  • Comment removed

  • Hahaha Its McAdder, unless your british you wont get that

  • he's got talent but his ego is too much.

  • agreed

  • looks like a bitch

  • He's hot, he doesn't need a haircut.

  • OMG! SEARCH BAROQUE BOYZ DRIVEN!

    ITS A SICK SONG!

    YOU WONT BE DISSAPOINTED!!!!!

  • The Olympic Gold Medalist, I think he won 2 Gold Medals.

  • Have a look on his surname White, He could only be good at snow...lol

  • so if his surname was black....he's only be good ar rapping?

  • you should watch this 

    /watch?v=ibDLoXBwq2o

  • Hey, humaner, He's worked incredibly hard for years at something he loves. He says he does it to better himself and represent America. Because of this he is famous and rich and has started his own charity. Now about you-you're " thinking deeply" about his haircut. Real deep thinking. Go help the homeless yourself or get your own charity.

  • im sorry for my comments about him being ginger etc, its ok, hes totally awesome, brave and talented, im just in a bad mood today and im taking out on anything on youtube, for that im sorry, please accpet my apology, i need to sort my life out.

  • Umm I am thinking deep here and all my mind keeps thinking in loop is: hey carrot top haircut,haircut,haircut.......­anyways don't forget the homeless in Vancouver as you careen down the slopes in a totally socially useless endeavour...but congrats on the Gold if that helps.Bye

  • hahaha your a fuckin fagg!

  • Congratulations Shaun - your the man

  • The olimpic nerd´s championship

  • Huh?

  • Comment removed

  • AHAHAH wtf???

  • It's part of the image. It identifies him. Why should he cut it? It's hair, that's all. He has th rest of his life too tow the line. Be free when you're young!

    I'm old and balding, but if I had a head of hair like that and was young, I would let it grow!

  • The Matt Hoffman of snowboarding.

  • hahahaha lol all these hateful comments...

  • hippie

  • @EMHcybertron ur just jealous

  • I was being sarcastic, tappc called him a fag to which i said "fag with a medal" meaning "yea so what about the fage comment hes got a medal you haven't".

  • Comment removed

  • @EMHcybertron and u are a fag without a medal!!

  • ....It was a response to tapp3r called him a fag, so i said "fag with a medal" basically saying so what you call him a fag but hes a medal winner.

  • nah dude take that back

  • i donno...can you?

  • I hear you...hopefully he donates some of the money he will be making to charity and help others less fortunate

  • he's good at snowboarding, but he doesnt smoke weed. he does alot for society. he donates a bunch for charity. are you doing anything useful for society by sitting there judging him?

  • @FREDLUVA01 how do you know he doesnt smoke weed?

  • @Zaideee he smokes weed, they all do

  • There was an interview he did with playboy magazine talking about it. Google it if you're that curious.

  • @Zaideee

    first off, they have to pass a drug test to play in the olympics.

    second, him smoking weed is just some crap some guy on here made up because he's jealous.

    Shaun White is dedicated to his sport. he wouldnt do that to his body.

  • Generate millions of dollars in sponsorship ads, sponsor tons of companies, inspire thousands of people...Pretty much more than you'll ever do.

  • Comment removed

  • @v1f9

    You're just a jealous kid. It's not like he hasn't worked hard to get where he is; and he is indeed on a different level. I've been watching what Shaun White's been up to for 6 years now. He's got dedication for his sports and now he has the gold medal to prove it.

  • I just told you three things...Can you not read? Or are you just stubborn? In any case, I'll explain again. He's contributed to the economy, given hope to thousands upon thousands of youngsters, brought joy to America, and has made many people explore snowboarding. You don't call that contributing to society?

  • If you weren't so ignorant, you would know he DOESN'T smoke weed. He's already talked about it. As far as what he does for society, what is that supposed to mean anyway? What do you do? You're asking like you do something. He inspires people to go after their dreams. Something that in the long run, creates miracles out of people.

  • Comment removed

  • Wow.. that's a great job that you have.

    I'll stick to Shaun White though.

  • I like how you take the time to say that to someone , someone like me.

  • All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine.

  • I need to know how to run and keep running know what I mean....

  • your the best , what a run  keep it up.

  • Lockerz invites to anybody.

    Just PM your email to me and you get invite to Lockerz!

  • White was superior to his contestants. They didn't have shit on this red haired motherfucker. ^^

  • first off im a highly intelligent individual with higher priorities than you...considering all you can do is make fun of people through a comment box..alright? so, you know! Wish you the best! and have a great day whomever you wish to be.

  • I would like to see half of you morons do the halfpipe and most of you not come out alive..how dare you speak such idiotic responses to this man who has worked so hard, just like the rest of the men and women who have worked, struggled, ate blood, broke bones, etc just to get to this moment! and he, he did awesome! they all did awesome!! GO, FIGHT, WIN, OR LOSE..you're all amazing! Good job S. White!

  • I cry just thinking about it. I wouldn't survive the 1st trip down the slope.

  • @EvilWarlock666

    Pro = Drugs

  • Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.- 1 John 4:11-12

  • lol idiot

  • LOL, if this is a role model for successfull athletes, we are screwed xD

    This half pipe snowboarding is stupid anyways...

  • He is only good because he is on DRUGS. Has everyone forgot his postive drug test in 2004 ?

  • Shit man he does weed. Thats like the fucking worst steroid that i know man. all those mars bars at the bottom of the hill just motivate athletes WAY too much. Its completely unfair that someone who is high can be so relaxed and unfocused. By the way your retarded even if someone does steroids you have to work fucking hard for it to be worth while.

  • @EvilWarlock666 ....so...what have you done recently...?

  • Who doesn't smoke a blunt or two hahaha

  • @halomontage or 3

    lol

  • Where was this? I have never heard of him testing positive for drug use.

  • I think his hair is sexy...go Shaun!

  • good for her. so glad she won. shows that americans know what snow is.
