The One MILLION Dollar Camel Race! | Wild Arabia | BBC Earth

In the last 15 years Camel racing has transformed into one of the richest sports in the world, with some races having a grand prize of one million dollars...

The speed of the camel has increased 30%. No shit they dont have a grown adult on its back

Camels look so interesting when they are racing! Like machines on a mission I swear!

[strikerwoman]

The fact they drive alongside is WILD to me

[Robisquick]

This is both the most high tech and low tech thing ive ever seen. Love it

[omenhp]

So no one's gonna talk about how many Toyota land cruisers are there ?

[RomanKnav]

What instructions do they radio the camels? “Habibi if you win you get extra treats” 😂

[fsh]

Would be more interesting if there were longer sequences of actual camels runnng rather than endless slow-mo shots of sunglassed arabs in cars.

They run just as funny as I imagined they would

In the next episode: Ten Million Dollar Snail Race.

(Kick horses to make them race) not cruel
(Let the camels race by themselves) cruel

Love camels! Tremendous endurance! Probably the best of all animals at constant speed.

4 min BBC video about camel race: you cannot see racing any camel in real speed. Slowmo-God strikes again!

@2:25 Bro stop whipping your camel lol!!

If we had camel races here, B.C. Canada, I'd name mine "Tammy the Cammy" with a bright red wig and red eyelashes.

When you have lots of money but nowhere to spend

[evangeline]

Ostrich and now camel race? What have i been missing out on?🤣🤣

[ximec.r.]

Why are there so many comments of animal abuse? These camels are treated better than kings outside of the race track.

[miamibestboy]

Love you Arab and respect you from bottom my heart....

[submarineinthesky]

Ok this is about the most hilarious thing I've seen today

[imacompoza]

It’s in fact a race between Nissan Patrol owners.
