Randy Mattson and Randy Barnes were the Best. But amazing. Al Oerter in the Discus. All are big guys are playing football, that's why these two sports have lost brilliance in America too bad.
you forgot mac wilkins in the discus. he was the shit in all events; discus, shot, hammer and javelin. He was the most all around thrower of all time. plus not all big guys go to football. christian cantwell, reese hoffa and adam nelson didn't. neither did john godina and he could esily went played football. Know he is the most decorated shot putters of all time and he made enough money doing shot put and discus to last him for the rest of his life.
Really didn't forget him but I was speaking of the greatest. Wilkins had 4 yr run. unfortunately. Still football is taking too many big strong & fast guys away from the sport that is the common problem according to all track coaches. Al Oerter 4 GOLDS. He almost made a 5 & 6 Olympics. He was amazing. Shot Put Matson and Barnes were unbeatable.
Yes I remember him. I just forgot he was the exception. I can't think of anyone else like him. He holds the high school record for a 12lbs shot put 81 ft. That was amazing. The best I ever did was 58'11" in high school. I don't think that will ever be broken.
He was not positive for steroids during the world record, only after, he was positive and then after that only a supplement that can be purchesed over the counter got him him banned for life.
all athlets use steroids after a point where the go so high in rank. In this sports such as discus and shotput, they use mostely steroids to be able to do more training --> emprove their technic as much as possible. steroids for power and explosion come second. when they got their tecn to a point they are clean to compete
I'm a 6th grader who loves shot put I just started a week ago I throw a 22' 3" which is pretty good for being 12. I also just tried discus today and threw a 62' on my first try.
any one of you bashers how bout you take all of the roids possible and just try to come within a foot of that and moreover try and do it gliding then i would be impressed so shut your mouths until you could back it up. BEST OF ALL TIME.
I hold 2 records and won several titles in my country keep to technique, weights come later me personally sit ups and push ups and if u can pull ups are best with stretching. randy barnes was a cheat but at end of day lots where cheats didnt come close to his distances caus he was good technically.
im 14 and have thrown the 8 pound shot 13.1 metres..and I know he's a full grown man but he threw the 16 pounder 23.12...and my throw was considered awesome by people...loook at this guy! lol
Keep it up kid. My son is 14 but he hates the shot and discus... Focus on your powerlifts and develop your core strength. Squats, powercleans, etc... Al Oerter was the best discus thrower ever (4-time olympic gold) check out his throws. Best of luck.
Well Fish tanks are stupid too (THIS GUY HAS FISHTANK VIDEOS) .... Weight lifting is important if you want to become stronger and maintain strong bones when you are older.... You're a muppet.
9/10 american athletes take steroids! the 1/10 come last. They tell the world to be clean when they are the dirtiest. Id say Americans are the 2nd dirtiest users, The first been the chinese
Excellent music selection for this video tribute. You can see by watching this footage that you can mentally block yourself from other oppenents in competition and pop out one monster of a throw.
randy barnes didnt take steroids you retards i know him and know he hated all that did... ps yeah its a shame hes only the wr holder indoor and outdoor and ohh yeah an olympic champ
best dam shot putter, is ranked right between best damn dominos player and best damn monopoly player.
