 I'm fa-climped. I'm fa-climped. Can you fa-clump me fa-clump me fa-clumped? Can you think they suck my ass? Josh! Hey, welcome back to our YouTube Direct Series subcourt. I'm Ellen DeGeneres. You follow us on Instagram, Twitter for more juice, you can't do this to me, so I'm totally trying to do it to the other button. What's your, what's your fancy? Uh, we have Old Monk, we have Antiquity Blue, and we have a whiskey near me. I have more, but... A whiskey? What whiskey? Sorry, not whiskey. I meant tequila. Oh yeah. Bop bop bop bop bop, territory. Um? The Monk. Those are just the ones near me, right? Old- Old Monk! By the way, there's a glorious, glorious wonderful thing that I didn't even realize until I watched it again recently, because we watched Badla with a couple of friends who are not familiar with Indian cinema. Oh really! So we watched Badla with him, they liked it very much. Not a surprise. But, in the very opening of that that movie, like either write in credits or end credits. Big B's crossing the street, he's gonna go talk to, he's about to go walk in to knock on the door of Topsy Pinoe's place, right? And there's a guy right out front selling nuts, and all he's saying is nuts, Big B's on screen walking, and the guy is saying nuts, nuts, and he walks by him, and he declines, and he says, I have to be. Big B's tasty nuts. I was so happy. Today we've got a cricket video, this is a Top 14 bat break, Top 14 bats broken deliveries in cricket. That's something honestly. I've never seen a cricket bat break. I've never seen a cricket bat break, it happens all the time in Major League Baseball. Yeah, because they can't use metal ones. Right, no. Because balls would just be. If they used aluminum bats in, because they use them in college because it's cost effective, you don't have to keep buying bats, so they use aluminum in college, but you'd kill people. The ball wouldn't be enough time to react, especially third baseman in pitchers. Exit velocities are already close to 120 miles per hour with guys like Stanton. Exit velocity, there's not enough time to react to that. You'd kill people. So yeah, they break a lot. I've never seen a cricket bat break. So yeah, how often does it happen? Because obviously the ball is a little slower, but it's still a wooden thing with something coming really fast at it, so I'm sure it happens a decent amount. Absolutely, and it's coming in quick. And I bet a lot of the breaks are happening up close to the hands where it thins out or off on the far edges maybe. Let's see. I'm very intrigued. Oh, look at that. Just split the frickin' thing in half. Also, what happens? You have to do it with your hand. Does the tag. Oh, that's him beating strong these days. Why isn't he running? I was gonna say, does play just continue? Wow, that background music is loud. Does play continue? Because in baseball, play continues if the ball is fair. Why isn't he running? Is it because you can't tag if you don't have it? No, yeah, play is still going. Okay. Okay, yeah. So I guess you have to, no, no, he still has it. Yeah, you keep going. Why didn't the other one, though? I wonder if they break more in the middle or more towards the handle. Well, that's in the middle. And I want to see them continuing to play because I want to see what they have to do. Right in the middle. I wonder if that's a weak point. Oh, ow. Another question would be, he's going, but he doesn't even have the bat anymore. Are there ever times when someone is found guilty of using an illegal bat? Because that has happened many times in baseball. Whether it's been corked or they use pine tar. Oh, look out. I just want to know, like, why do some keep playing? They're all breaking kind of around in the same spot. Swung out like a bat. Swung out like a baseball. They're still running. It's not like me answering my question. I get it. They're doing it for copyright reasons, but it's loud. Nice. Obviously, being much shorter, you have to run. Yeah. Because you can't, I'm guessing you still have to run. And so, that's probably why that guy dove in the first one. Yeah, I went flying. Oh, look at that. Just kind of like, it was like, it kind of folded. It didn't really break. It more folded in half. Yeah, there you go. The ball is just coming so fast that it... I heard a guy at the beginning say that's the difference between the bats from what they used to be. So did they used to be made, like, heavier, maybe? More porous, maybe. Maybe for bat speed to make them a little lighter. Yeah, so you can get your... But obviously, if it's thicker, I feel like you could hit it a little farther, but maybe that's not the point in cricket, right? Yeah, I don't... I went limp. And is that... Is it common? The way that cricket people are looking, like, I don't think it is. I would think it's not. Because, like, in a baseball game, it's like, you know, like, in a baseball game, you'll get a broken bat maybe once every three or four games, a cracked bat or a broken bat out of 162 games a year. Oh, he just broken himself. Yeah, that's another thing. Yeah, that's another thing. Have any guys ever done what happens in baseball where you get out and you're so aggravated, you just snap it over your leg? That is not easy to do. And I'm not talking like the bat was cracked or broken before. I mean, guys, they're just so pissed off. They take their perfectly good bat and snap it over their knee. They're not paying for it. Have you ever tried to do that? No, no. It's a solid piece of wood. You have to be crazy strong to snap a baseball bat over your knee, man. No, there's a solid wood. No, yeah, there are wood. Obviously, these men in baseball at least are super crazy buff beasts. Guys like Stanton and Big Poppy could do it with his butt cheeks. I love Big Poppy, man. So do I. One of the great Red Sox legends. He was that year, wasn't the end of the curse the same year as the Boston bombing? Yeah. I think everyone in America was rooting for the Red Sox. 2006, I think. Yours truly, I was rooting for the Red Sox that year. So was I. I know you were. That was a great year for baseball, that Red Sox team. Yeah, that's super interesting. Code one, please let me know. Do they have to keep running? It didn't really answer that for me. No, like one guy. It was like half the time. Obviously, if somebody catches a ball, I'm sure obviously they don't have to run. Maybe that's why some of them weren't running because somebody just caught the ball. Or is it stoppage of play? Because of that, I don't know. And do they make the bats differently nowadays? I bet they do. Right, compared to the old days. Because a lot of those look like almost like really not hollow, but like not solid. It's just porous. Yeah, they look pretty porous. And I've swung a bat. Right. They're a cricket bat. And they're not the heaviest. I'm guessing that's obviously because of they want to be able to get the bat around. They balance the weight and it does look porous because the other thing they don't do at least in this that we just saw these 14 when they break, it looks like they break in half. There's not a lot of splintering which can happen with a baseball bat. You can get splintering. A bat can shatter. That is solid wood. Yeah, it's a solid piece of wood. There's no porousness to it. A tree. And they just zip it down. Yep. I mean, it's very wasteful for the tree probably, but I'm assuming they have a farm for baseball bats. 100%. There's probably tree farming that they give steroids and they grow the trees specifically for the bats. And then there's specific mud for baseball. You've seen that whole document. There is. But it's only from one place, from one family. I find that one family has always provided the mud. Find that incredibly stupid. I'm like, really? Just get mud. I know. Cool video. Let us know if you've ever broken a bat. They ain't cheat, man. A bird by a broken bat. That's happened in baseball. I'd imagine so. I would imagine so too. Has a bird ever been hit with a cricket ball? Yeah. One famous time in baseball. That was insane. Bird exploded. The bird literally looked like it had been shot at point blank range with a shotgun. It basically had. It did. It flew right in front of the fastball and just like a cartoon goes feathers. No bird left. The odds of that happening. The odds of the bird just happening to go through right at the same time as the ball's trajectory hits it is insane. Absolutely insane. Anyway, it's cool video. Let us know the cricket videos that we can react to down below.
