China's Young Athletes - China

[CHUUMPASS]

chinese "athletes" could elevate their levels easily if they had some clean oxygen to get into their lungs :D

[kayper54]

"..at such evalation." hahaha

[kayper54]

This is just... bleak and depressing.

[furvert101]

go china ... respect :|

[maomao667]

@paulius360

fuck you, bull shit

[StraightDudeUp]

China is fascist.

[Emrald70]

tbh i'n not gonna judge any race till i've met someone of that race

i bet my right arm not EVERY SINGLE chinese person is a workaholic machine who only cares about work

[CLIFINHO10]

i still thinck its not right what China is doing whith the young athletes, you sereously cant put a 5 year old child to train that hard.... hes just a little boy/girl...

[Sneak0031]

Their not 5 years old dumbass.

[wooshoo]

have you seen what good athletes do elsewhere in the world? moron? almost every person who has ever gotten a medal in the olympics took on thousands of hours of agony before getting there. regardless of country, being a real athlete is nothing like just playing sports. it's not about fun and games, it's about sacrifice, passion, in exchange for glory.

[Quy4life]

in china, if you don't work hard, you won't get a future. You can call them a robot or a slave, but if you put yourself in their shoes, you would understand!

[kelborn24]

just calling a spade a spade....if you understand what I mean...they allow their government to control them, they need to show some backbone.

[LLitLomL]

@kelborn24 Dude, have you ever heard of Tienanmen Square? That's what happens when people without weapons stand up to a military with guns and tanks. You can't just take a quick look at an entire country and make off-hand decisions about what should be done. Until you know the details of the government's stance and it people's problems and limitations, you have no right to judge.

[kelborn24]

@LLitLomL Well it sure was effective (massive sarcasm)

[LLitLomL]

@kelborn24 Ummm...that was sort of my point. The people did try to stand up for themselves. I'm sure there's got to be a way to do it that would be effective, but you can't just call the people cowards because they don't have the means to overcome their government. They do horrible things to those who oppose them. Pointing finger just isn't helpful.

[kelborn24]

@LLitLomL There's nothing they can do? There's many tactics....they could join the army and revolt from within, or whatever....but they also have strength of numbers (obviously), and that can overcome almost anything.

[fleeordie]

@kelborn24 Try it and tell us how well it goes, k?

You may not have realised this but parents do not raise their child to go on a suicidal mission in China.

[CLIFINHO10]

it looks like by the chinese citizen (who look like slaves) the country is raising... they just want to be the most powerfull or something like that ts like if they had a bet that they have to be the worlds biggest power no matter the cost. and by all the peoples slavery and extreme poor condition their obteining it. I THINK IT IS EXTREMELY BAD!!!!!!!! the high controls should live it... i mean havent they got conscience????????

[alankok100]

MuslimAgainstEverybody, R ur god & Muhammad ask u to hate, against and kill others. Why u all Muslim so cruel from Indonesia, Thailand to Xinjiang? After u successful blasted Americans, should I angry when American fight back and kill thousand of Muslim or they should be killed as terrorists?!!!!

[HuiHuiWanSui]

chinese hui muslim general ma zhongying destroyed the uighur seperatist republic in the 1930s and killed thousands of uighurs. so fuck off

[StraightDudeUp]

And China is speaking anti west comments becaus ethe west has to defend against the muslims! hipocrties!

[Tanlovepeace]

Please open your mind to respect different culture. Chinese people not the big mouth but good at working hard. Chinese people are the experts of secular life.For the young athletes in this video, they just want to get rid of poor (Lanzhou is the one of the poorest area)by this way, what's wrong?!Dear Spainese.

[voyager01]

@CLIFINHO10

Frankly, nobody cares what Spaniard thinks lol

[russiangymfan]

Stupid comments! What does it mean when this stupic woman makes such comment on Chinese athlets: "There is no indivilism in the classroom."? This is typical racist attitude. Does she think that everyone goes out to shoot others or does whatever he/she wants is the best? Arrogance and racism!

[russiangymfan]

Chinese athlets are NOT forced to do sports! Do kids in the west have freedom to choose what religion they want to believe, or not to believe any religion at age of 3 when their parents force them to go to church on a bitterly cold Sunday morning? Chinese are fine, they're smart, hard-working and know their goals. Instead of bashing Chinese, some people in the west should work on their own moralities. At least young Chinese don't smoke weeds or shoot their school mates in schools!

[MetallicaRepublic]

chinky chinksters

[obsidian467]

LOL ROFL

[kiratheweirdo]

why all the hate comments =/

people act tough behind the screen of a computer, but I bet they won't do anything face to face.

They are Internet Tough Guys =o

ITG lul

[goldsilverapple]

xuci111111, I am agree 110% what you say.

[onimotoko]

right on!

[ProSportsChamp]

America doesn't suck. Neither does China. I agree that some people are a racist but still...... Some people are like that. Asians RULEZ!

[sfriendshipz]

i presume this sch doesnt train for shotputt -.-

[PRARRCGriffon26]

This is like almost every other school in every other developed Asian country. Only Westerners breed their youth to be lazy bastards, then try to make themselves look like angels for doing so.

[RussiangirlNY]

listen i am the first to praise Asian discipline-infact like working and agree that from what ive seen asians are very effective in everyhing they do- but les not hate on America or europe or western culture- it has brought about many things which eastern cultures have not like ballet and modern dance. not all americans are lazy my family is very hard on me.

[hongpingmike]

wow.. you sound like a big strong tough guy......you must drive the girls crazy!!

[TysonAE86]

LOL, dis is so fucking stupid lol. If american gymnasts can't take a lose from a younger athlete than they oficially suck.

[samirrana1]

ur name sud be gay209 f((ker

pple like u r disgrace of the world

[zanecha]

Why would God bless a country that according to you wants to rape women of deprived countries. You're sick.

[guy209]

if im sick you r healthy-yes why would God bless u.s.a?

[lolz1727]

middle and high school students have to wake up @ 5:30am or even earlier even if it's a normal high school - -"" and they go home after 6pm. This school's not that different, and it should be harder since it's a sports school, they have to train and study, so stop making it sound like they're being treated like child slaves! you don't understand anything, so kindly shut your mouths. And also, what the hell do you know about tibet?! china is changing, ppl's lifes have improved alot!!

[eduardlungu]

go china ... respect :|

[NZkitten]

Do you think Athletes should start training in their 60s????? Of course from their early age....

[NZkitten]

funny that one of the poorest province , but lots and lots of high rise buildings. Is it something like slap on your own face for stupidity ??? The one of the poorest province look much much better than Auckland... What a joke ??? Who is cheating here???

[businessguys]

RED CHINA CHEATERS... gymnastics girls are under age.

[flutetime]

most bulshitin OLympics in history

[liusinger]

every IOC member begs to differ, im sure they are all idiots! brain-damaged pig...

[liusinger]

fuck usa

[flutetime]

yea yea yea keep on talkin u bulshiitin piss of shit...alll the fuckin mixed martial arts and everything that had to do with judges was fuckin bullshitin everything went Chinas way.....keep on talkin bitch

and I agree actully fuck USA

[xuci111111]

And I'm sure you would say the same to those who once agreed to attack Iraq?

Wash your own guilts before your taunt somebody else, liusinger! Just because you probably never had an ambition and trained hard for it when young doesn't mean you can ruin the dreams of millions of young athletes in China! They have a pursuit of goal! To achieve the best in themselves!

This is nothing related to politics, so leave these Chinese athletes alone!

[snipazcamper2]

china rocks. i have stuff made from there. its amazing.

[nass38]

that's true USA sucks, they think they are the best and they are not anyway i come from the 'old europe' as they called us but we don't have an old and shit mentality like american, i'm french i hope that chinese will win a lot of medales in the olympic games and stay at first position c ya from france

[baipc1983]

objective please!!!

[x0xrheannax0x]

Most of the Chinese look so young..aren't you suppose to be 15 to compete?

[12valvepower1]

numbers are more valuable, then just big super nazis.. numbers of good soldiers are more valuable.

[Kenhang]

Is name calling the best you can do? you dimwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit! Go fuck yourself, your mother, your sister....you are nothing a scumbag, bottom of the food chain.

[kanayumikumo]

what about the book cover? you MIGHT be good looking, but your inside is as ugly as your nazi heart. if you dont like asians, dont look up things like this. why give yourself a heart attack?

[baipc1983]

USA = SUCKS fuck you ugly american. the racial discrimination country.why the black men do sport ???

[kiratheweirdo]

It's actually more tolerant than you think. I'm a minority so I know from actual experience. In fact, "Black men" don't do sports because they are forced to, They or any other race/person sees a great opportunity. You can get sport scholarships. duh..

Pro tip: Not all Americans are fat and support bush. Hell I hate the guy, I did not vote for him >.>

[26589580]

Go fuck your mum mother fucker yankee shit!

[NZkitten]

you are so ugly....... are you from Mars? pigs were your parents? you stupid racist...

[zengerl]

Remind me of my childhood, but believe it or not, those time were the happiest time in my life.

[12valvepower1]

automedon., this is true hahah

[12valvepower1]

i deplore eugenics. but i think that tehy will do it.. but it takes along time and is a messy process. now cloning, mmmm. clone the top athletes. and then have an army of soldier-worthy athletes

[12valvepower1]

very very poor. but china only cares about rich, eventually china will have internal riots

[12valvepower1]

china only cares about money now. it is really not great anymore.. they have money, but nothing else.

[edvan88]

America care about what ??

Get out of Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistahn. Stop stealing the oil.

[NZkitten]

yeah ~~~~ agree with you... what a joke . Americans only slap on their own face trying to make themselves the best.. not any more.........

[sciath]

China is hardcore and doesn't accept weakness. Thats why the west cant accept it, they expect the whole world to adopt their liberal practices.

[q1ax]

Umm WDF it say Environmental Protection is not a concern WDF this Video is such a propaganda, YES Environmental Protection is a BIG　concern in china today, fuck this video saying we chinese dont care about environment, we DO, IN　ｆａｃｔ　ｔｈｅ　ｇｏｖｅｒｎｍｅｎｔ　ｈａｓ　ｓｔａｒｔｅｄ　ｔｏ　ｒｅｓｔｏｒｅ　ｔｈｅ　ｅｎｖｉｒｏｎｍｅｎｔ．

[lipeng7441]

And by the way, Chinese is not a racial word, Chinese is actually a mixture of different races who all wanted to unite and form a country. Just like Americans, you cannot say Blacks are not Americans.... Do some research and otherwise your words are confusing

[lipeng7441]

to arafel1964, how can you represent Tibetan? Go to tibet yourself and find out the truth, don't blindly believe in those tibetan living in other countries, they fled China because they want independence, but there are many more others who don't want it and stay in tibet

[Kenhang]

Why waste time to reason with morons. They know shit about history, politics....Always free this and free that. Free Quebec, free the American Indians, give back CA to Mexico.

Those who cry foul have never been to Tibet or know anything about Dalai Lama. He is a dictator, he does repect personal liberty. All Tibetians are his slaves.

[lipeng7441]

although I am frustrated by the ignorant comments here by the westerners. But I still want to communicate with them. Misunderstanding between the west and east is dangerous, it may cause harms eventually. For example, if bush has accurate info before Iraq war, American and Iraq people may not be bogged into this war...

[NZkitten]

yeah.. the fucken stupid Dalai Lama is the brain washer. even worse then North Korea president.... fucken terrorist..... Why would he encourage people to do suicide bomb????

[arafel1964]

mine comments were a reply on 'davidsylvester2008' who's denying the truth and twisting the facts. Sorry for changing the subject from this vid which is about the athletes and not Tibet but I don't like it when someone is telling lies about the Dalai Lama and Tibet.

[arafel1964]

The crucial subtext of Beijing's condemnation of Tibet's 'feudal' past is a classic colonialist argument that the target's alleged backwardness serves as a justification for invasion and occupation. These are the politics of the colonist, in which the 'native' is dehumanized, robbed and debased in order to make occupation more palatable or even necessary and 'civilizing.' China has no more right to occupy a Tibet than Britain had to carry the 'white man's burden' in India or Hong Kong.

[arafel1964]

The UN does NOT recognize Tibet to be a part of China.

Go to the following link and you'll know EXACTLY what the UN thinks of its mistake on Tibet:

friends-of-tibetDOTorgDOTnz/mi­stake-of-the-century DOThtml

The report is the result of three years of research conducted at the United Nations Archives in New York, the United Nations Peace Palace Archives in Geneva, and the International Court of Justice Library at The Hague.

[arafel1964]

Tibetans are nót Chinese. The Tibetans did not ask for this ''liberation,'' as the Chinese insist on calling it, and they were quite content with their form of religion and government, backward as it may have been by Western standards.

[naffteri]

i wish i lived in china

but i am korean

it seem so cool but hard

[GeorgeBguitar]

Your Korean? Korean people are Amazing

[naffteri]

well my grandmother but that counts right?

[GeorgeBguitar]

what did i even say lol, cant find my comment?

[chinatheatre]

Typical west propaganda machine. How many Tibetans living in Tibet did this journalist interview before she reached her political conclusion? Who told her that Tibetan Chinese want to separate from the country? Wishfulthing west imperists' thinking! "The world not convinced?" Who is the world? a few NATO/white racist nations? Racism can be seen all the time in west media including this one.

[lujooo]

Lanzhou is my hometown. The documentary let me remember my childhood and school life.. What sweet and lovely memories! Lanzhou really looks more beauty than it used to be.

[nnbb2008]

Yes...China is still using such a highly administrative system to find genius kids and train them to be top athletes, like what the former soviet union did.

It is nothing about politics.

[davidsylvester2008]

Tibet has been part of China for many centuries. China has brought peace, prosperity and development to Tibet since

1949. When you speak to ordinary Tibetan Chinese, as I have, they will tell you of the horrors of the brutal fuedal system that the Dalai Lama ruled over. Only the religious and former land owning class want to see a return to fuedalism and religious fundamentalism in Tibet. Long live Tibet as an integral part of the PRC! Down with the ruthless and bloodthirsty Dalai Lama.

[spunkternal]

As for as gymnastics is concerned the chinese kids get picked at the age of around 5 and sent to train full time on their sport (which is chosen for them) they are told "do some study" but it is never checked or enforced. they are pumped with performance enhancing drugs. if they get a gold medal in the olympics they will get $1000000 but anything else they get nothing, having been given no education or skills apart from their disipline which they may be too old for by the age of 25.

[Automedon2]

"if they get a gold medal in the olympics they will get $1000000 but anything else they get nothing, having been given no education or skills apart from their disipline which they may be too old for by the age of 25."

Sounds like the NBA

[koroke]

china screwed up, chairman mao wanted a big population....well they paying for it now. The male to female ratio is terrible.... it's like a sausage festival there. you make other asian people looks bad, due to large pop of chinese.

[doublepolk]

whatever.

[trufkin1000]

this sucks. Most of these athlets don't even look healthy, they are too skinny, they're nutrition sucks, and living conditions are horrible. I'm not saying these athlets don't have the promise and potential to be the best, but these conditions really hinder that possibility.

[travisrashawn216]

y'all little fuckheads need to quit arguing like little babies on here. grow up. be aware that we're living in a death society

[marumito]

i lived in china too.. I tell U guys, there are more worst things going on in china than this. its better to be free than be ingulfed in a corrupt totalitarian country like this. these kids are a pawn of mr. mao, & victims of their own people.

[firstforlast]

what city?

[APandBS]

Lol that's cos your Japanese

[aspfa]

The program is good for the kids, it gives them hope, discipline and future rather than ending up in the streets, pushing drugs or prostitutions.

[seka1986]

Another boring journeyman production.

[dowling1981]

seka - Why doth ye cuss them? Have you no scruples?

[KaiXi333]

This is pathetic. These kids should be able to choose how they live.

[davidsylvester2008]

China has lived peacefully within its borders since 1949 and has lifted hundreds of millions of its people out of poverty. In the same period the US has invaded countless countries and slaughtered millions of people. China is morally superior to the US and in a few years, it will be economicaly superior too.

[Geonihilist]

Morally superior? America has taken the tradition of Western values of scientific rationality, universal human rights, secularism, empowerment, and freedom. China still stresses a totalitarian control over the families, the families stress a totalitarian control over the individual, and this individual suffers from being repressed by the bourgeois clan values of justice, civil religion, loyalty. Just look at the events of Tiananmen Square. China's government is based off Europeans like Marx.

[KaiXi333]

You're right about that. But remember; Marx was a Jew. He was no European.

[davidsylvester2008]

KaiXi333: "Marx was a Jew. He was no European".

Marx was German and a European. He was also an ethinic Jew, but not a religious Jew.

[Terramax]

There are plenty of people in America that have no will or self control, are attacked physically and mentally by the system, irrational amongst other things, under the system of democracy. And lets not forget who's invading and raiding other contries in the name of money. American doesn't appear to have any morals at all.

[mcjamez13]

ok, I'm english (not british). america is not perfect it has done bad things but china have done so much worse.

they kill there girl.

and don't forget tibet

[Terramax]

"they kill there girl". Well you certainly aren't English with grammar like that.

And to say China have done worse is a complete lie. America is known to kill blacks, Asians and homosexuals. But that certainly doesn't mean every American does so, whilst there are plenty of Chinese that don't kill either. Both countries are as bad as each other; every country has their own problems. Trying to prove one is worse is a pointless waste of time and purely hypocritical.

[mcjamez13]

haha you think you're better than someone because of a spelling mistake.

i am english and all of us english should respect the americans for helping us out in ww2.

[APandBS]

You prat mcjamez13, Terramax never said he was better than you. You are just some dumb kid, if you look in the history the US did not "help us out" in WW2 they came in after they just tried to make money out of everyone practically bankrupting us and destroying our empire. We had to get gold from all over the empire because that was all they would accept. Have you talked to anyone from China or you get your info from CNN and BBC?

[Terramax]

1.) What? They did near nothing and watched most of it. You ought to stop watching glamorised Hollywood WW2 films.

2.) WW2 was what, around 70 years ago? What's that got to do with the state of America now?

Respecting Americans fighting 70 years ago is a heck of a lot different to respecting Yanks invading pretty much every country that won't bow down to their rule.

Don't speak for England. You'll make us all look as insolent as you.

[APandBS]

mcjamez13 Don't call yourself English. You're an idiot who can't spell or use grammar. You have no clue what you're talking about, and unless I misunderstand, I don't think you're saying "don't forget Tibet" because of the shithole it was under the Lamas and Fuedalist system. That goes for anyone.

[APandBS]

Lol what the hell do you know Geonihilist? What a moron! What countries has China invaded to "promote" it's values? And yea dickhead I'm British so I know it's not just the fanatic US that does it. Why do we think "Western values" are applicable to every country in the world? Haha you Americans really are dumbing down your Ed system they are "WESTERN" values mate, China is "EASTERN".

[KaiXi333]

Wrong.

China's border ends in Chengdu.

[TimAnders44]

Wow! The ignorance is amazing. China has lived peacefully within its borders? Try telling that to the Koreans, Vietnamese, Tibetans, Indians, and Russians!

[davidsylvester2008]

TimAnders44: Assertion doesn't actually get us very far. Do you have any argument that you can support with evidence? Oh and by the way, Tibetans are Chinese. At least they are according to the UN, the PRC and the Dalai Lama. Sorry to intrude into your emotional outburst with these inconvenient facts.

[DanWongC]

China has a population of 1.3 billion people, so this means that Chinese need to work 10 times harder than American to be sucessful. Of course, the oppertunities in China are much less than the US. This is not an issue about communism as someone else may point out. It is about culture, which is very typical in East Asia.

[MuslimGhost]

FUCK China and their shitty atheist communist corrupt lousy ass government. DOWN WITH CHINA!

[theBigTakeover]

Im jealous of China too!

[MuslimGhost]

Yeah? Well maybe the Chinese can shove some lead up your ass. The cancer is free btw ;)

[hiddentemujin]

You are a disgrace to Muslims.

[MuslimGhost]

No, you sorry ass afghan coward traitors are a disgrace to Muslims.

[hiddentemujin]

LOL. Just because i randomly put afghan in my youtube profile doesn't mean i am from afghan.

You are just one stupid Muslim. No offense to all the other muslims.. JUST YOU, MuslimGhost. LMAO.

[lichaonz]

Fuck you you tower head!

[anner442]

This system can produce excellence...bt the hidden cost is that the teachers, the benefactors,any person in power can really extract any payment they want in order for you to be advanced. I want to see this dedication for bettering oneself (and fam.) in the US because we have an indifferent/indulged society where youth feel that they don't have to work to succeed. I don't want to see any abuse of the children or their families for that to happen. NBA-most are poor-they have the incentive.

[Brukernavn]

The slave republic of china?

[ssal1122]

everyone here in america and in europe is too lazy to get off his/her ass so when we see guys who are working hard, we say ooh thats oppression..... its all too mterialistic here, talk about all major leagues players....

[NafeesLACC]

At the end of the day, its their only way out of poverty, I'm sure most of the kid who are in these programs don't think twice about this opportunity.

[KaiXi333]

Dude I get off my ass 12 hours a day and I eat, sleep and breathe seduction.

And I'm American.

Fuck you dude. I've lived in China, and having to do this mindless bullshit would be the last thing on earth I would do.

Not to be arrogant or anything, but for someone like me who has an IQ of over 170, this stuff is just mindless garbage.

[nebyou]

you have a 170+ iq?

[ssal1122]

exactly.... my point . You cant accept that someone in this world could be better than "you". Why would you not put some effort in it and wtf your IQ has to do with athletics and sports. Its more to do with tactics, stamina, spirit etc. and incidently you lack in every one of those department.

you arrogant piece of trash.

[NafeesLACC]

Republic?

[anner442]

Every system is differnt. The US seems to be dumbing down their society at an alarming rate. I don't know why, as this benefits no one in US. China rewards those that it feels benefits the country. It is the out for the poor person-like a lottery. The pop. of AP kids is more than our graduating class of somewhat top kids. Our Nobel Prize winners are foreigners...America needs to rebuild and rethink the way we approach education. Teachers are not respected, and education is not respected.

[fomiz]

These guys are little soldiers.Tough like Conan The Barbarian!

[Command37]

they seem more like slaves being led down a narrow path than athletes in training.
