Stone Skimming Official World Record!! | Dougie Isaacs | 121.8m (400ft)!!

Taken from our documentary 'Sink or Skim' for BBC Scotland.
It's not as easy you might think to film a world record throw like this! A scaffolding tower in a lake and a very talented cameraman were essential to the process!

The applause you hear for stone skimming is much like the same one you hear for golf, with some minor differences.

[@BlueZirnitra]

Wut. What minor differences? Lol, clapping at quiet sport events is generally just like this...the only slight differences being the natural difference between any two applauses.
Are you suggesting people clap differently when there is someone throwing stones lmao. Would the applause at The Masters change if the golfers picked up some stones for a skimming match?

[@quaiss007]

Funnily enough the throw action is very similar to a golf swing too

[@Liverpoolgolfgear]

You must have a pretty bad slice then…

[@foddyfoddy]

One major difference is that some idiot didn’t shout "In the hole!".

[@gringochucha]

That is pretty friggin impressive.

I always thought I was pretty good at this and fantasized about it actually being a sport, that's how I got here. This guy is obviously way better than I am, but still I would love to compete in this :D

[@Key_Friendly]

Being someone who knows this man personally I am so proud of him you people have no idea the amount of time and effort he put into training his right arm sometimes the internet bill wouldn't get payed and he'd drive all the way to a mcdonalds or starbucks just to train

[@missy3968]

The fuck?? Can I say that in here or is it against policy?? I don't think their is a policy. I think people can do whatever the hell they want. Even if it is GROSS NEGLIGENCE!

Awsome stuff brother really appreciate it!!! Man

[@scott12at]

I can't believe this is a thing. But I'm glad it is.

[@charleswilcke9862]

Counted about 50 skips could be anywhere between 40-80 depending how you define a skip and if you really slow it down

[@theheretic65]

The second time it plays the applause sounds like a crowd booing and a group of horses trotting on a paved road.

[@JXKGamers]

Sounds like cows lol

[@janeradcliffe653]

[@mrcaboosevg6089]

The right stone is half the battle, technique is the other half although you can get most of the way on the latter part easily

[@BlueZirnitra]

So the latter part is more than half the battle then?

[@sirspongadoodle]

@@BlueZirnitra no, just takes less skill... finding a good rock is luck not skill therefore it is easier to get farther rather than skill alone...

[@BigBoyClippiesEh]

Is that over 88? I can’t math

[@RockSkippingPro]

Epic skip! I wonder what the velocity and spin rate of that rock was

[@TheInsanitor]

I can sometimes get mine to skip twice... I'm somewhat of a Pro myself.

[@Ahmedsdiary1]

Wow amazing

[@AnnaLisowski-xm3eb]

congrats

[@paffboy6437]

Are they using real stones or specific plates?

[@poppinbot321]

You can literally hear his arm break the sound barrier at 0:07 due to how much force he put into that throw. VERY impressive!

[@Mechanarian]

I don’t think his arm broke the sound barrier lmao

​@@Mechanarian nah bro for sure his arm is moving 740mph+ 😂

[@Chareidos]

No matter what it is, listen closely! You can HEAR him throwing that rock. And I am not certain how common that is and what to make about this sound, but this is definitively impressive! :'D

@@Chareidos it's the rock itself making a "woosh" noise

[@Armwrestlingphilosopher]

I counted 92 skips

[@shadeomicron3076]

It was hard to count when the rock kind of skips continuously for a few feet. Do you individually count those? I counted those as one and got 65.

[@WateNojo]

@@shadeomicron3076 pretty sure you count those, if it was only 1 skip it wouldn’t be skimming on top of the water, it would sink

[@sirspongadoodle]

he got the furthest SKIM not the most amount of SKIPS...
