[Concakesable]

petranoff totally would have been on there if he had one of the new javs

[koffe1992]

Andreas Thorkildsen: 91.59

[HuntKromatik]

only white men

[shadowq2]

@HuntKromatik its genetics - white men strenght (javelin , strongest man etc) , black man speed (sprint etc)

[Dan0101010101010]

@shadowq2 But I thought all blacks were spear chucker's?

[chum38]

same old shit music.

[rocketjav11]

@gribbo97 50 degrees will probably take 10m off distance. Best angle of flight is anywhere from 30 to 33 degrees

[SuperVbull]

how is steve backley 8th ? he is one of the best javelin throwers in the world

[santeenl]

@SuperVbull Not in distance

[87Ultra]

you should put for Jan Zelezny world record video :)

[gribbo97]

@canadianboy231

When running up, keep your arm straight and have a really quick arm on release. Release at about 45-50 degrees!!!!

[wwjav]

@gribbo97 ummm actually you definetly wouldnt want to go greater than 45 degrees

[gribbo97]

@wwjav well thats what my coach p.e teacher said so....

[goldenguy12345]

Thumbs up if you would be shitting yourself standing out on the field

[loveinaturesomuch]

cant live without this sport..although i cant pass 65m since 4 years... ill do it till i die :) gj with the video!!

[sk8ingmonkey1]

[deathtopopstars]

[IwontSay]

@deathtopopstars Meters

[canadianboy231]

Hi, im a 18 year old male throwing in my final year in highschool. I currently hold records in both discus and shot put, and would really like to leave my mark in javelin. But for some reason I can never throw it without it twisting and turning in the air. Any tips?

[sk8ingmonkey1]

@canadianboy231 practice makes perfect

[andrew9592]

3:04 scary

[Pooledogg]

On best distance this is correct but for performances in major championships and consistency Backley and Thorkildsen should be in the top 5 at least.

[Brollz123]

@eoin712 well u wanaa make sure ur doin the right form.... Get your steps down and make sure u dnt cock ur wrist to the side when u throw... I throw too and I am only 14 but I still managed to throw over 100 today.... So ya just keep your arm straight and don't release too late cause that's what'll make a huge difference when u throw!!! :)

[TheProfessionals000]

image how far these guys could throw a baseball

[WackidWally2]

[MumaTrader]

Jan Železný - King of Javelin!

[munakoiso69]

song?

[ChekhovBla]

I agree that Uwe Hohn did throw a brutal one, but as it landed the way it did it was, according to rules of the day considered invalid. The javelin for men was for this reason redesigned in ´86 I believe. Therefore only records from after stand nowadays. Females did not get redesign till ´99. Still, there is no question that Czech Republic is "The javelin land".

[pdowd18]

Great vid, sick tune!

[rocketjav11]

96, 96 m. Seppo Raty, FIN, 02 Jun 1991, Punkalaidun

[JD0077xx]

Whats the song name???

[WGsFan]

Holy crap! What a professional man! I have been learning this for 1 year and barely get to 60m.

[Cr4shJuh1s]

Where is Seppo Räty's 96,96?

[IwontSay]

it was a sick throw but it doesnt count =/

[GeneralisimusCZ]

Because This performance was with old type of javelin

[santeenl]

@Cr4shJuh1s Seppo Henrik Räty (born 27 April 1962, in Helsinki) is a Finnish javelin thrower. His personal best throw was 96.96 m in 1991, which was a world record at the time, however this throw was made using a modified 'Nemeth' javelin which was banned by the IAAF later that year and all records made using this javelin were retrospectively deleted. Räty's best throw with the current javelin is 90.60 m in 1992.

[Cr4shJuh1s]

@santeenl kk.

[brandonjolliffe]

well. when you say keep your arm straight, do you mean for the entire swing of the arm? i played football for years...the only reason i can throw a decent distance..so as you can imagine i try to throw it a bit like i do a football.. which is of course dumb. i've managed to get it straight about 30% of the time so far, and i've gotten a little better at keeping my arm straight.

[soilworker0226]

@brandonjolliffe heyy bud. i just started, but ive noticed. that if when your about to throw the jav, you just move your hand back as if it were just replacing your shoulder as you move, and that halps me keep my arm straight

[MetallicaFIN]

Zelezny = Mr Javelin

[brandonjolliffe]

i'm a senior in high school, and i kinda fell into track a week ago for the first year. i have a 40m time of about 4.6 (fast, but not a record), so i decided to join the throwers. i picked up a javelin for the first time about 4 days ago. thing is, we don't have a javelin coach, just shot and disc (i'm doing as well)..i threw about 155 the first time, the kid who took state last year did 180 . i would like to get to 185 , i need tips to keep the jav straight. i would appreciate any

[Bryan1483]

@brandonjolliffe well i've been doing it for three years and i'm a junior in high school. but the javelin always tells you what you're doing wrong, if it goes to th eleft or right means your leting it go sideways, the best way to keep it straight while in the air is to keep the javeling back, don't bed your elbow and once your hand is about to let go of the javelin make sure the javelin is a little to the side of your head not on top but very near it.

[Ooji6345]

what is the song name?

[swedenkil]

fhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Reathalack]

Around 50m would be very good, but anything over 40m goes :P

[Softball8Girl]

i hit 100 my freshman year not really knowing what i was doing and by my senior year i was at 121 soph year in college i'm at 143. that's just a little something. :D but everyone's different. but i'd say 90 100ft would be a good distance but thats just me ;-D

[andresundercover]

io lanzo 10mil metros

[priza10]

mitä vittua pitkämäkihän on heittäny yli 100m

[TheMikke]

no ei se nyt ihan taida olla ;P

[ssmies89]

Miksei Rätyä näy videossa, perkele! :)

[julkimo]

Koska video on top10 heitoista nykyisellä keihäsmallilla. Räty on tilastoissa 11. :)

[ssmies89]

Juu näinhän se on. Räty ansaitsis oman videon: Hardest javelin thrower ever prkl! :D

[HenSan97]

Do another film with the new best throws and a film with the best throws with the old type of javelin.

[jeger123]

zelezny must have been from another planet he is so many meters ahed of the rest and we should never say he used drugs cause thats never been proven..

he was just a javelin god on earth kinda like bolt is in 100 and 200

[breekbaard]

where is Uwe Hohn?

Ok other type javelin.......so what still a brutal throw breaking the old record with 16 feet!!!!!

plz don't reply on this with other type javelin it's BS

[ThomasTrimble]

Why would it BS? Its the current regulation javelin thrown! No one has a choice, we have to throw it! The event is always changing. New javelin, better throws, better throwers!

[breekbaard]

ok i know its an other javelin but why is his throw not in the movie.............

[santeenl]

@breekbaard Because you compare them, you dont know if hohn was able to reach this top10, and he was prob on steroids...

[dyshilton]

@breekbaard uwe hohn might have the longest throw in history but when he threw the 104.84m throw the jav was lighter than it is now that's why no body else has gotten anywhere close to as far as that throw

[DamonBoykiw]

whats the name of the song please?

[puolakka2]

weir video; thorkildsen 91.59 record. very wier .....

[roskispummiz09]

thorgilsen 91,59

[zagor1974]

a very interesting fact is that zelezny as great as he is he never was a european champion cause backley won the title 4 times i a row in 12 years

[emilgg1]

Nah, he just had a good technique

[emilgg1]

Oh, my bad, thanks for the clear up mate :)

[vecernicek2]

Zelezny had half the muscular volume compared to most other guys in the field. He must have had great technique to overthrow them all by so far.

[Tubeamp2]

@vecernicek2 I don't think the technique is the major factor at all. If we just look different javelin videos, it can be seen that Zelezny's hand is so damn fast compared to any other. And the day when his technique is in shape, the result is that.

[TheCaspator]

How you can set this shit like he was doping? He was extremely talented guy with enormous whip and put this discipline on the higher level.

Jan Zelezny - The King of Iron and Gold !!!!!

Live forever my hero!

[andrew9592]

@TheCaspator best quotes

[SodeeSodee]

Great video, thx!

[created92]

owned

[lovesport13]

Kimmo Kinnunen in 1991 90,82!

[FunnyAssProduction]

w00t?! didnt torkildsen throw 91.58??

[FunnyAssProduction]

i mean 91.59..?

[tomata666]

Great video. And oh yeah where is Seppo? But gotta say, that Zelenzy was The Greatest! Look at his hand, that's like a MF whiplash!

[Mydern]

Where is Seppo Räty ? He trowhed 91,98.

[ThomasRiekki]

He threw 90.60 with the new Jav and like 96 with the old.

[kers80bhp]

Seppo Räty personal best throw was 96.96 m in 1991, which was a world record at the time, however this throw was made using a modified 'Nemeth' javelin which was banned by the IAAF later that year and all records made using this javelin were retrospectively deleted. Räty's best throw with the current javelin is 90.60 m in 1992. He was World Champion in 1987 and an Olympic medalist in the javelin throw (silver 1992, bronze 1988 and 1996). He was nicknamed "Tohmajärven

[santeenl]

@Mydern Räty's best throw with the current javelin is 90.60 m in 1992

[ThomasTrimble]

@Mydern His 96.96 was with a later banned javelin. I'm only the video maker not the rule maker. He was a great thrower. One of the best ever.

[itallicknot]

What's the song?

[tyfawcett]

the song is....watch the video you porch monkey...dont worry about the tunes.

[itallicknot]

Fuck you! Do you even know what a javelin is you dumb piece of shit.

[leptimecdu54]

the song is akala shakespeare

[EdgeTheRock]

when i trouw, it doesn't stick into the ground.... it kinda goes a bit in the ground & then jumps out... is there a techniqe that i need to know?

[FrostfireB]

actualy ... whit easy words... you got bether javelin than you are... if u are throwing javelin around 50-60 meters and javelin is made for 80,90 meters that will happend for sure.. u need to throw javelin like that (made for 80,90 meters) in corrner 32%. But other javelins who are made just for your meters you throw whit a corrner 41-43% u do the same techniqe but throw it whit lower %. Sorry for bad english again :) oh yea BTW it realy helps if u listen your personal Trainer not others..

[tyfawcett]

yeah its called kill yourself. Get outta here with stupid questions.

[hallidayz]

im 15yrs old and throwing 35m, how can improve as i want to qualify for my national schools competition, which has an entry distance of 40m, i throw 700kg

can anyone help?

[theoldshap]

700kg eh? i think you mean 700gm

[hallidayz]

haha yeah i mean 700g, my bad, can anyone help tho?

[sober2blur]

700kg........if someone throws a 700kg Javelin 35m the person is definitely not human.

[br1kyh]

@sober2blur if did mean 700g ;) ?

[FrostfireB]

if you got some time you should get some strenght in Fitness but if u dont have time you should improwe your tehnic.. Be sure you are quick whit your legz and impulse step. Also you must not do a break when you are in throw position. Im 15 years old too im throwing 700g too and last year i threw this javelin 44meters but this year im catching entry distance 60m for world championship in Brixia , Italy.. i throw 59.20 and im going to a compatioiton in 2 hours :) Sorry for bad english

[degen2000]

Practise your technique first of all, then you should focus on your strength by going to the gym, train particular parts of the body more to get more explosive, which is very important in javelin, to be explosive, i'm 16 and I throw around 58m and I don't have a lot of muscles, it's just my technique who make me throw that far. So first of all get your technique straight, listen to your trainer and no one else, coz if you get the wrong technique in the beginning it will be hrd to change tht l8er

[DkinSkyhawk89]

right...because they didnt have steroids in the 80's. especially in places like russia.

[javnlsn2012]

whats the name of the song?

[bonjingles]

akala shakespeare

[andy1741]

song??

[decadoc]

I'm calling bullshit

[SoSyFan]

iÄ'm trhowing about 25 metres and i'm 13 i'm not very well put i'll do my best do get an medal on the next comptition but i don't think that i got one i must tain more :/

ps: i'm german not american but i think the americans do know much about jav as we do i think the finnish, norwegian can do it at best

[tsiko90]

Americans dont know NOTHING about javelin...btw, greer is trained by finnish guy x)

[bonjingles]

that aint cool. we do kno about the jav n u in no position 2 talk

[decadoc]

One other thing, some of you have talked about zelezny as a "stick armed" small weak guy? Apparently your knowledge is limited to what you see on youtube.

Zelezny power cleaned over 200kg (440 pounds) and could perform an 11' lateral hop.

I don't know about you, but that sounds awfully powerful to me.

[decadoc]

The reason it was banned was safety, I have thrown this way and the javelin will come out sideways sometimes, landing on the track, in the crowd, etc.

[decadoc]

in 1956 Felix Erausquin of spain threw the javelin over 83 meters using the now banned (discus style) technique. A Finn named Pentti Saarikoski threw 93m with the same method. There were NO 100m throws although all of these were beyond the world record at the time and there was speculation that discus throwers would be able to adapt their specialty to throws possibly exceeding 400 feet.

[javelinjoe1982]

yeah, apparantly they actually used soap to make it slippery so it would shoot out of their hands faster..???

[dfargraygththsrthsth]

dude im not super into jav ut i dont get how big muscled guys at meets throw less then kids who have twigs for arms lol

[jryoz]

cuz javelin is technique, speed, explosiveness, and finesse. not bulk

[cdeavellar1]

and you have to have throwing arm. thats why form quaterbacks and baseball players actually do pretty good in the jav. But have seen one big dude do pretty good at the javelin but he is the only expection. the shot put and some discus throwers are big guys.

[Belford08]

good video but Shit Music

[bonjingles]

wats this song?

Iceprince you are a waste of life. REALLY, are you even serious? Your a disgrace. Kids watch these videos and your talking like that. SO offensive. You keep talking like that your never going to make anything of your self, just a sorry excuse for a person. Take a step back and look at yourself, your and embarrassment to us all

[giggitygoodude]

keep obama out of this. :)

[wolfdog45]

top ten trhows not thowers wou all be jan

[motormouth908]

[Limitedh1ts]

akala - shakespeare

[oldaardvark]

Zelezny makes everyone else look like a beginner. And yet they are great.

[steveoo6o]

akala - shakespeare

[desembodic]

yah its funny also since technique wise he is probably the worst, yet makes up for it for 1. being a freak. 2. speed 3 explosivness

[santeenl]

I don't see the link between Zelezny and bad technique

[glistana]

name of song?

[crazyjav101]

i thought thorkdilsen has thrown 91.59

[FunnyAssProduction]

Yea, he has...

[lampardalldaway8]
