one time when i was 6 years old (im currently 5) i threw a 69 pound steel ball 420 feet. my parents were amazed, so i tried it again. by my 10th throw, i had thrown a 1000 pound ball so far that it collided with and destroyed the planet beyond pluto. now im currently training for the 1492 olympics
Oh believe me, I did shot put for 3-4 years, and even without the spin, the basic formation and process of throwing a shot put takes time to learn. It seems a lot easier than it looks, but u get called out by the referee if u just “throw” the ball.
I can't thank you enough. I'm 68 and like to compete in the Senior Games. I've heard you are supposed to use your legs but never actually saw it demonstrated til now. I can't wait to correct my form and get over this plateau I've been on. Til now, I guess I've just been doing arm throws. I can feel the calf cramps starting already.
+Batman and Robin Oh yeah? I picked up a solid cement wall, then threw it and it hit a comet heading straight for earth. So, yeah, I basically saved the world. But no big deal.
Deadbutalive Fish oh yeah? earlier this morning I lifted the fucking MOON and threw it at an alien space station that was on a collision course to earth, and then I channeled all of my strength to replace the moon and saved the entire world twice. I'd do it again in a heartbeat
+Oxameter57 I spit on the sun and it went out. It molded into a ball100,000 times bigger than the moon and I threw it 47484728472846286475729464836956294738374838474929474857294749294 kilometers and u try to say that number in words😒
I have thrown a shot put 76 feet confirmed. I have no need to have this record known and acknowledged, accept via the RUclips comments section. Please share your praise of my amazing feat below.
Your profile pic tells me that you're probs a guy that acts like he is a badass at everything. You do realize 74 ft is a little over 21m. I'm saying that is the distance world class throwers throw. AKA I don't believe your bullshit lying ass. Haha throwing 74 ft.
+TheDarThaum there are kids in highschool who throw 70-80 feet in competitions.. I have seen them do it. I placed 60ft in the men's minnesota state championships. But some states there are kids who put that to shame. Do some research. FYI... my silver medal took place in 2000. In todays competition this is nothing now. 80 ft is easily doable.
as shot put thower myself, i personally took ballet for 3 years of highshool just to learn the spin tech. and even after all the training and the ridicule by others in doing ballet as a big burly guy, i was topping a 16lb ball 60 foot+ consistently , so with that said shot put is indeed harder then what it looks :) and for those who take the time to learn and go above "normal" training, the rewards of it are well worth it :)
Dude. At 51 I just started throwing this year, and with a 12 lb shot. My ulnar nerve was about to explode when I thought that this kid had gone almost 30 feet on day one with a 12 lb shot. 🤣
What’s funny is in 7th grade I threw to the 35 line and I just realized I did decent I always thought I was bad because others threw to the 40 and 45; you have now restored my happiness thank you
For real tho, throwing shot can be really frustrating sometimes. I can never get it perfect. Either I'll drop my elbow, my glide is too slow, my release, it's always something
Jason you should try it. I started in 9th grade throwing about 32' at 190 pounds and look where it got me I'm throwing 55' at 245 and I'm going division 1. I too am a linemen so you have the build for it.
I may begin Shot Put in my 10th grade year. Hopefully they don't have the bowling ball weight one. If they do, hopefully I don't fail at it, lol. This will be my first time playing in a sport, especially Track. I'm not a good runner.
There should be one for Discus and Javelin it's really funny seeing these. The spin is really difficult it literally took me almost an entire season to learn the spin for Shot and Discus.
Dude Tipstor wtf? reread your own comment. lmao. "a lightyear is not a measurement of distance, but rather a measure of distance" pretty much sums it up
You can throw about 5% farther from a rotational thrown that you can from just a glide. Also, it's easier to save a spin once you get the technique down...
A spin can make you throw farther. But as a younger shot put thrower, it is better to focus on easer techniques. There is a reason that Olympic shot put throwers, including the world record holder, use the spin technique.
As a Female thrower I can say I am impressed with your first time out. As girls we throw the eight pound shot and some of the girls on my time cant throw that well. Next discus.
Wish I could’ve been there to show him what an average high school sophomore can throw. That would’ve really hammered in how hard it is to throw when I walk up and throw 47 ft with a 12, and I’m a big 280 kid!
It's an accomplishment of your ability to throw. Like vertical jump, Bench press, and your time i running events, its an accomplishment and tells whether you're good at your sport/lift
I know a seventh grader that throws the 8 pound 26 feet. There are actually two of them at my school, both getting a consistent 26. Can't wait till they are in high school to see what they throw.
+Nicholas Gisch yea dude state makes a huge difference on how good you do I'm in Cali and I didn't make it to state I made it to the meet before and I looked up some other state meets and I would of podiumed 😂😂
I'm from America, I don't understand the metric system too well :/ we throw 12lb shots in high school, I'm in 11th grade and my personal record is 45 feet. I'm hoping to get somewhere near 50 by next year!
Some old Champions (including several over 22m) Ghuntor, Beyer, Timmerman,Andrei, and the list goes on. The technique you use is very personal, and should be adapted to your caracteristics. No technique is hands down better than the other, the choice must be done on personal abilities.
Furthest I ever got was 50 ft with a 12-pounder in 10th grade. I pretty much stopped throwing after that. Tried a 16 pounder a couple years later, and it hurt my wrist. Maybe I should have used tape.
Just wrapped up my wrist and performed my first shotput throw. The ball hit Mars and created a landing pad for our future 2030 astronaughts. *Blessed*

The biggest heart break is the realization... yeah, the ball I had in middle school was 8lbs. No wonder I could throw 10 meters.

I just fucking died
Lmfao yeah same I'm dying
Not true
Omfg 200ft would be like an all world high school record
+longboy8998 nah man, I'm massive. Can bench 3,000 pounds
I'm X age, and I can throw X feet with a X lb. shot!
But that guy in the video.. what a loser, am I right guys?!
Theodore M. K. So you're 10 years old and can throw 10 feet with 10Ibs
Denzel Qualls nailed it
AHAHAHAHA YOURE A THOUSAND YEARS OLD AND CAN THROW A THOUSAND FEET WITH A THOUSAND LB AHAHAHAHA
@@lol... not that funny
Wolf Urban ah yes, 2 years ago me was a bit immature
I am not alive and can already throw air ∞ ft.
Hard enough to squish avocados that’s for sure.
rantaro
RANTARO 😭
Why would they have him rotate? Why not start with the glide or even a shuffle?
Okay, they gave him the glide afterwards but it should have been a glide from the start.
Agreed. I don't get that either.
Because the title of the video is 'How hard can it be?' That technique is harder.
This is just an informative video. It's not like he is actually training for the Olympics
So he can gain the infinite spin
Cool video. :)
I have fond memories of shot put, nice to get the vibe again from your video.
rantaro amami: 👁👄👁
YOU DID NOT-

60+ consistently in high school!? I’m trying to get like you!
At first I was like 28 ft is pretty good with 12lbs and then you said it was 8lbsb🤣
Dude. At 51 I just started throwing this year, and with a 12 lb shot. My ulnar nerve was about to explode when I thought that this kid had gone almost 30 feet on day one with a 12 lb shot. 🤣
I needed this for an assignment. I’m doing I barely needed it but I still needed it thanks lol
I'm planning to compete in shot put next week, and guess what? nobody has taught me how or anything so wish me luck.. yeah
Brynn same my coach does know how too so he left me alone to leave me figure it out but now I have to do research my self to know how to do it
it's lateeeeeee but hope you did good.Im also doing it and I ever only held the ball once...
Brynn I'm doing it this year and my first throw was 25 feet though I screwed everything up
Brynn I hope you fail
Waste Of Oxygen it was 4 years ago
What’s funny is in 7th grade I threw to the 35 line and I just realized I did decent I always thought I was bad because others threw to the 40 and 45; you have now restored my happiness thank you
Nice lie, buddy. 35 feet is past the state qualifying mark in 7th grade. How could you think you are bad if you qualify for state?
@@ayyeclipse6204Yk state qualifiers vary by the state right?😭
@@jesuscarter4048 man I was young asf when I wrote that 😂
Im in highschool so i dont even spin, id rather glide or shuffle and my meet PR is 40"9"
32Gknight I’m a sophomore practicing with glide atm. PR is 41 flat but I am not consistent at 40 at all. It’s weird man
I knew that pit looked familiar! I ran in a few meets at this school during my high school track career.
For real tho, throwing shot can be really frustrating sometimes. I can never get it perfect. Either I'll drop my elbow, my glide is too slow, my release, it's always something

maby he should have thrown a 6 instead of a 16
+The_ Crazy_Patriot well for girls shot put they make a 6
truuuueee haha
i was watching this peacefully till i heard wall street journal at the end.
im 6 and throw a 16 lb ball 600000000 ft
Ha...ha....ha not funny u cant throw 3kg
That's not too bad when i was in 6th grade i threw the same in 7th i threw 27 feet and now in 8th i can throw 35 feet
Sure
not lying santre fosty
Lukas Egroeg prove it
Looking forward to my second Olympic sport in HS. winter is wrestling, im 255 lb, and next is T&F, doing SP and Disk.
E. Lockwood what do you throw? im only a freshman but I throw 34-38 in shot and 85-95 i disc.
I’m still in my mother’s womb, and I can throw a ballistic missile faster the the speed of light.
My PR is 44-3 as a sophomore. Hope to be hitting 45-46 by the end of the season and she.
I throw a 50lb shot 328 feet.
yes
I agree, my training in figure skating has helped my tennis a lot. I started looking to shot training to get a better tennis serve ....
I would like to see this on the Olympics but it doesn't seem to get any air time.
crystalheart9 truth!!
Now you will see! The last world champs was the best shotput competition ever and one can only assume the Olympics will top that!
man john has slimmed down since his throwing days big time
I may begin Shot Put in my 10th grade year. Hopefully they don't have the bowling ball weight one. If they do, hopefully I don't fail at it, lol. This will be my first time playing in a sport, especially Track. I'm not a good runner.
I started tack this year and only throw. I'm freshman. Once you get the steps down its not that bad.
+Zac Cannon oh good! I'm glad to hear that 😂
High school uses 12lb
High uses a 12lb
Oh good! I think I can lift that up. I think 😂😂😂
Just went in a regional school sports carnival, never done shot put before in my life, thought I’d give it a try and won by one centimetre
I am not throwing away my shot!
Hey yo im just like my country
I'm young Scrappy and hungry
and I am not throwing away my
shot
I think the shuffle is my favorite throwing form,plus as a basketball player it's something im already used to.
Shuffle?
+Majestic 12 it's seriously just shuffling across the ring. Super inefficient lol
I think you mean the glide?
I glide
That's Traveling unless you dribble.
I'm 14 had a middle school meet today and I threw 29' 5 3/4"
Oh I am sorry that your mum didn't give you enough attention. But pls don't try to get it on the internet, ok?
@@julians5037 sounds like someone can't throw a shotput 29' 5 3/4"
The glide is the only way to go about it for you.
at 15 I threw about 42 feet not bad and not great.... my favorite was javelin.. favorite part of track just watching the girls
Booty bruh. Jav booty was the best here
+Majestic 12 no pole vault booty bitches who do pole vault have asses like you wouldn't believe
Pinkie Love that is really good. The freshman indoor record at my high school is 37'10". I currently hold 10th on that record with a throw of 33'9".
Chunky Ragu 37 FEET. my middle school has a record of 52 feet. but I can only throw the high school one 28 feet.
MUTkings0227 that record is insane
When my coach was a freshman he threw 38, had 56 as a best and now is coaching four kids who can’t throw 30+ and our entire school has 250 kids
I almost popped my shoulder out when I first started to to shot put.. Ahah
Not a bad first day! But when your coach is John Godina ...
Everyone. Stop. Bragging. About. Your. Shot Put. Record. Nobody. Cares.
Harmony Starr i care , about correct sentences
+Dominic Bob When did correct sentences start with a lowercase letters? Hehe.

Physics, centripetal force; so twirl until you hurl
My friend Brian (biggest kid in school) can throw it 45 feet. We're in 8th grade
That's my schools 8th grade record our high school record is 58'
I throw 40 thats it
austin1999 Holy shit. Our middle school record is 33ft
Lol I'm 12 and I throw 60
austin1999 im in middle school i threw it 47'9"
I use the glide for my school champion shotput player
you don't even need to spin to throw further.. in my opinion..
It all depends - my friend can throw far with just power but I think the glide helps me get farther
You can throw about 5% farther from a rotational thrown that you can from just a glide. Also, it's easier to save a spin once you get the technique down...
A spin can make you throw farther. But as a younger shot put thrower, it is better to focus on easer techniques. There is a reason that Olympic shot put throwers, including the world record holder, use the spin technique.
It helps build momentum
Grant the difference is about 1-2 feet

excellent.u have great potential u will be successful at this. sport .good luck. dont quit.thx
As a Female thrower I can say I am impressed with your first time out. As girls we throw the eight pound shot and some of the girls on my time cant throw that well. Next discus.
Wow this technique is awesome to throw it I was so afraid how I can but this technique is very helpful.💗
its so easy steps you have showned me thank you sir
Data: April 25 2016
Tomorrow at school me too i go there and my school we go to sports challenge on field is Shot put.
shut put is hard. experience middle-high school now going to collegiate for throwing events.
excellent video...you did a good job of journalism.
I did shot for 5 years and could never spin. If this guy got ANY gratitude about that spin I'll hate myself
Wish I could’ve been there to show him what an average high school sophomore can throw. That would’ve really hammered in how hard it is to throw when I walk up and throw 47 ft with a 12, and I’m a big 280 kid!
The same goes with uppercuts in boxing all about the calf’s and hips.
It's an accomplishment of your ability to throw. Like vertical jump, Bench press, and your time i running events, its an accomplishment and tells whether you're good at your sport/lift
Thank you i will have an exam next thursday
Thanks for the effort though..at least we can see how an Olympian's training looks like..
That's really good. That's about what threw in seventh grade. What division is your school?
I know a seventh grader that throws the 8 pound 26 feet. There are actually two of them at my school, both getting a consistent 26. Can't wait till they are in high school to see what they throw.
i just finished 8th grade and i throw 29'10
dude thats not special at all that'll get you in the lower places like fifth to last
+Nicholas Gisch i got first with 29'10 ft but overall 26 would have placed like 4 or 5 maybe
what kind of nonathletic piece of crap of a school do you go to? what state?
+Nicholas Gisch yea dude state makes a huge difference on how good you do I'm in Cali and I didn't make it to state I made it to the meet before and I looked up some other state meets and I would of podiumed 😂😂
His release made my shoulder hurt
Makes me feel a lot better on my 37’8 8th grade throw lol.
I've held a marble once before. But I switched to a BB on the coach's recommendation.
I'm from America, I don't understand the metric system too well :/ we throw 12lb shots in high school, I'm in 11th grade and my personal record is 45 feet. I'm hoping to get somewhere near 50 by next year!
I agree, 50 is doable if you apply yourself.
Nice so clean video for basic learner
Em nhất định sẽ cố đạt môn này. Cảm ơn và cảm ơn rất nhiều ạ 😊😊
i dont know how to play this sport.. but i really want to learn cause it is interesting more than other sport
Actually when i went to the playoffs, the winner was a freshman who threw 59'8". Wouldnt surprise me if he was a legend at throwing
He is from Streator, Illinois he through 50' 07 at state. This year's state champion. I also am for for 7th grade champion.
shot put is something they are doing at my school put a little different
10th grade,5'11, 230lbs, 4kg (I know im supposed to use 5kg but i was withing cutoff date) PB: 14m, 5kg PB: 12.5m
i'm throwing 31 6.5 right now, but my first season with it doesn't start until spring so I have time to improve.
Not really relevant but I remember we were doing a rugby practice with the shot puts. Lets just say we didn't want to miss or drop the ball.
It's all fun and games until a kid gets knocked the fuck out mid-lineout by a shot put.
last glide move was very help full for mi
I do shot put at my highschool and I hate how the track team says we do nothing but just throw a ball. I wish they could know how hard it is
I threw 53ft 3inches when I was in grade 8 with a 8 pound shot. This was during 2010 in Canada.
i got in my school's track and feild team because i got the highest shotput distance in the school! still cant beleive it!
Who is a good Olympic thrower that glides? I need to find a good video breakdown to improve my technique
David storl
Majewski
Some old Champions (including several over 22m) Ghuntor, Beyer, Timmerman,Andrei, and the list goes on.
The technique you use is very personal, and should be adapted to your caracteristics. No technique is hands down better than the other, the choice must be done on personal abilities.
Ulf Timmerman throwed 23m with Glide! He was ULTRA FAST

I'm in middle school and last year at track conference there was an eighth grade girl who put 32'6' with an eighth grade shot
Furthest I ever got was 50 ft with a 12-pounder in 10th grade. I pretty much stopped throwing after that. Tried a 16 pounder a couple years later, and it hurt my wrist. Maybe I should have used tape.
