That Thorburn penalty is unbelievable. No kicking tee or sand back then, old heavy wet leather ball, heavy wet surface (not like the pitches of today), 70s boots - it really shouldn't have been possible.
Most famous try has to be Gareth Edwards against NZ for the BaBaas. Could have had longest pass? Most tackles in a game Most tackles in a season Longest time not missing a kick...could be Neil Jenkins that! Longest time not missing a tackle Most tries scored in a game So many more.

@@eleycki do you realize how ridiculous is your argument ? the game is adjudicated so closely barely anything is missed yet you claim even with neutral refereeing the All Blacks cheat by throwing forward passes? you're pathetic.
New Zealand and England share the record of most consecutive wins by a tier 1 nation with 18. Funnily enough neither team faced the other in either streak
The bench record is "only" 200kg, it's not so surprising for a 135kg player. For example Julien Ory, top 14 player weighing only 95kg did the same... I think other massives players can do better...
I dont get the records!? Most famous try? I did not even know that was a thing. As an SA rugby fan for me it would be Lomu against England 95 World cup. What try was more spectacular than that?
why does the image measure from the ground to the top of his head? last i saw your head isn'r on the ground when you jump. plus its clickbait to make you watch the video
@@shroomdreams don’t make me laugh - New Zealand ran laps around South Africa - they will never catch up in your lifetime. Google how many times New Zealand beat them. Still 20 more wins against NZ to classify as the most successful rugby nation.
@@SheSoForeign I reckon the 2013-2014 Kiwis team is arguably the best in the world, but the best nation in the world would have to go to the country with the most world cups (and remember the Boks have played in two fewer world cups than all blacks, which gives them an even higher ratio of wins in World Cups). Kiwis are dominant and beating them is an achievement - an achievement that the Boks have accomplished more than any other team in the world - and that's only including the games from 1994 onwards (post-democracy in South Africa). I vouch for the fact that they should only include the records of the democratic South Africa but go look at the history before and you'll see the results are a lot closer. FYI, I'm a Kiwis fan
@@shroomdreams still doesn’t change a thing - for South Africa to be deemed the most successful rugby nation is a lie, it’s simple they are not because it’s always been New Zealand- no other country has dominated each branch of rugby - 7’s, union & league, Even the black ferns dominate women’s rugby. I’m not referring to world cups, those mean very little. It’s okay if you like South Africa they are a good opponent, but they are far from the most successful or even the best.
@@warriorbomb_5074 No French. And you drugged up lot gonna pay back for it. But you’re right I could be either because you’ve fucked over 3 different teams
Louis Moolman kicked a 91.9m penalty in the match between Sishen Rugby Club, and Durbanville-Bellville Rugby Club in 1997. The longest penalty kick in an international is 64.2 meters by Jannie de Beer in the Boks vs England match at the 1999 Rugby World Cup.
How many?

You definitely dont watch enough rugby, you Shouldve included "longest rugby try scored by a forward" which was scored by (at the time) a 17 year old boy from South africa during craven week in 2019. Known as Renzo du Plessis. He even has a highlight reel on YT.

Thats was unbelievable. I can only imagine what he would kick in todays games
An absolute HOOF he gave it
he even hit a player XD
I saw that on tv as it happened. Bill McLaren commentary perfect.
I watched it live (on telly) and it was definitely one of the moments that progressed Rugby Union forward .... everything is possible
That clearance kick was awesome
Tallest ever rugby player was Scotland international Richard Metcalf who Is 7 feet tall.
Yeah theres a few here in seems like because Frans Steyn has nailed a 66M penalty kick before, here is listed only 63M for a Welsh dude i think

Could have had longest pass?
Most tackles in a game
Most tackles in a season
Longest time not missing a kick...could be Neil Jenkins that!
Longest time not missing a tackle
Most tries scored in a game
So many more.
Most tackles in a game (Test rugby)... 38 tackles..Thierry Dusautoir vs NZ 2007 RWC. Unless there's a higher tackle count im missing
There’s no way. Maybe 5% of rugby fans today know that try. The most famous try is definitely Lomu when he ran over Mike Catt.
How do you measure famousness?
Views on RUclips or search on Google Trends
Famousness is measured using Buncett-Percival scale
I know right. Haven’t seen that try in a long time but you see Lomu’s try against England in 95 all the time.
with a tape measure
Kirwan, RWC 87
That FRENCH try against the ALL BLACKS@ 03.50 what a fantastic 7 men effort.,deserves 10 points not 5 .
So many fun facts i didn’t have. Thanks mate great work! Maggle
Henry Tuilagi did 200kg for five reps
Why does that not surprise me. A scary man. His son in now playing pro rugby in France and is even bigger.
No he bench 260 it's on google

Henry tuilagi was benching 260 kgs and a player in England did it also
Most forward passes unpenalised: The All Blacks.

Don’t tell me. You support the Boks?
Never mind that for decades, the Boks at home only used South African referees and got away with blue murder
Why don’t you do a video of all the things that are wrong about the all Blacks?
Frans steyn did a 64m penalty kick and a 100m kick........
Doesn’t count
Probably on performance drugs!
@@mungogerryjnrmust be nice being so delusional
With a modern ball, tee and at altitude.
That worlds longest try might have been beaten recently by Peniasi Dakuwaqa for Stade Francais
François Steyn used to kick from that distance all the time, even dropped.
This is like a personal list
Missing the most tackles in a single match by Dusautoire
1:38 never seen a forward bounced back like that in my entire life.
A few are debatable but good non the less
Agree with the previous commentor. Fake, clickbait thumbnail = channel ignored.
Most famous anything is not a world record category. It's entirely subjective
We all know the most famous try ever… 🤦 With the commentary too just spine tingling!
It’s not this one
Quite a few subjective ones in here, but great video all the same!
It’s a shame that the 50:22 didn’t come into play sooner, that Boutier clearance was just as good as a try!
I was in th stand for the HK korea game and that tackle looked worse in real life than on the replay
That penalty kick was ridiculous
Tallest player was one of those Scotland locks from the 90’s, he was 7 ft 1inch.
pretty sure Francois Steyn owns all the long range kick records now
0:01 is a really nice try
Too bad the runner was clearly in front of the kicker.
The most famous try ever has to be Lomu walking over Mike Catt.
All blacks in 2013 went on a 14 game win streak making it 100%
Just confused as to why select those years instead of one specific one
New Zealand and England share the record of most consecutive wins by a tier 1 nation with 18. Funnily enough neither team faced the other in either streak
The bench record is "only" 200kg, it's not so surprising for a 135kg player. For example Julien Ory, top 14 player weighing only 95kg did the same... I think other massives players can do better...
The longest unbeaten spell in international rugby is 24 Tests by Cyprus (Nov 2008 to Nov 2014).
It’s 30 as the red roses got that over the last few years but still Cyprus coming in second is very impressive!
awesome! would be cool to see one for rugby 7s
longest penalty kick - with an old school leather ball! Ball was probably a bit wet too
Yesss we made it 🇭🇰
Manie Libbok, most famous cross-field kick. RWC 2023.
#thelongestdropgoal ever in Wales was 66 yards in Abertillery in 1980 by Steve West !
Rugby player's heaviest bench press record is Henry Tuilagi. He can bench 250kg.
You know rugby well😂❤
'Most famous pass ever thrown'. Did a Scot make this video by any chance?
Tupou doesn't have the heaviest bench. Manu Tuilagi, WillGriff John, Biyi Alo and Andrew Porter all current players over 200kg
2:51 - Forward. Come on, ref.
That’s not forward buddy.

Amazing 😊
There is absolutely no way the biggest bench a union player has ever got is 200kg...
Awesome! Who has the most World Cups?
I'm surprised we dont have anyone taller than Toner. They musr all be playing basketball
Richie mccaw coming from the side
Owen Farrell doing dangerous tackles only to get a slap on the wrist
Devin Toner was not the tallest player, Richard Metcalfe, aka Too Tall, was 3cm taller (2.13m vs 2.10m)
You forgot the Safas world record of most fomo fans on the earth lol🎉😂
jordie barrett has a world record convertion kick for at 75 meters
Could have least put the dates, names of teams and players info on this? So annoying
What about most foot points? Wilkinson deserves to be on this video
So many inaccuracies in this video. Richard Medcaffe was bigger than Toner, no way 200KG is the most a rugby player can BP
