@@jram7047 nah man my mom saw it when her and her church group walked in while I was beating it. I could tell by the shocked looks on their faces that it was the biggest they had ever seen
I’m a high school shot putter with a 16 lb personal best of 39’0 (11.89 m). The fact that these guys were able to beat that with the worst technique I’ve ever seen is a true testament to how insanely strong they are.
Form plus strength alone is not enough, they also needs to have the mobility, balance and explosiveness which most of the top athlete struggles. Strength wise, a lot of shot putters have 200kg++ bench too.
no way this is 7.26kg shot put i think its 6kg..no way this skinny guy can throw it 13m first attemps ever.. he is not that strong.. i bench press 520lbs and push press 360lbs and i throw it 11m at 340lbs bw.. no way he did 13 with 7.26kg
Back when I was competing in the 80’s as a hammer thrower I’d occasionally have to put the shot if our second string shot putter wasn’t there and I’d have been happy with 13-14m considering I rarely if ever practiced it. A good club, first string putter would be more like 17m plus if I remember correctly. You should’ve looked out a proper circle with a foot board, there not hard to find and and would’ve helped with your distance. The world record was done using the “discus” technique and it’s extremely hard to do, most used the glide, still not easy but probably easier for a newbie of your size. I’d be interested to see what you could do with a little expert coaching at a Highland games event.
I used to do the spinning putt, probably because I also competed in the discus and started with hammer(before I ripped my anterior deltoid to shreds crashing a scooter). . . but found the spin (if done correctly) made the release much easier. .
Bearded Hobby Homestead Our 1st string putter tried to teach me but i was a lost cause. I’m just glad this was before everyone had cameras in their pockets so there’s no evidence. I was a lot better at the discus though and can’t explain why as the technique is similar.
Fun fact: World Record holder in the shot put, Randy Barnes, was an absolute beast. 1.94 (6'4) and 132kg (291lbs) He benched 256.5kg (565lbs) and trained with 272kg (600lbs) in the squat for 3 reps.
@@OakQueso Fun Fact Ryan Crouser the current world record holder is even stronger with a bench over 500 and a box squat up to 700lbs. He also can clean insane weights. He also is tested and not on drugs.
@MateuZ _- maybe true but with all the new training methods and improvements in lifting and shot pug form it is possible he is not on drugs. Also randy barnes looked pretty muscular, but Ryan crouser looks not as muscular just big and strong. Also ryan crouser is 6'8" so that helps.
My biggest concern is cardio for both of them. Boxing is a science and I'm betting on Eddie. His cardio is better. Thor will burn out by the first round. Eddie should let Thor swing that power the first round and wear himself down. Then come out and pour it on him.
Watching this makes me appreciate just how great an athlete Brian Oldfield was. Seventy-five feet (22.86 m) in 1975 was astonishing, even if the powers-that-be refused to recognize his world record. Never saw a big man so quick and coordinated.
Eddie's best throw is my actual my personal best as well except I was 18 when I did that and it took 3 years to get to that point but I can briefly say I am just as good as The Beast.
Its impressive to see how much you can do with the right technique. I think if Eddie would´ve actually done "the spinning" he could have gotten somewhere there 😄
I think throwing is going to be pretty intersting and hella useful to see in box prep. Explosive power-check, technique and force transition from legs to arms-check, ridiculously strong punch-check, diversity in movement and flexibility improvents-check.
I'd love to see that, as said in other posts with a bit of technique training Eddie should be hitting 17 metres. Going beyond that is years of work and like Eddie said, it is something you start learning as a kid to get really good.
Im not positive but I think you are supposed to measure based on the initial impact point not where it rolls to. they are artificially adding a bunch to their score.
At 00:39 I was convinced he said "and we have an Olympic shotputter here" - the camera pans to Pat flexing. For a good few minutes after I was convinced this guy was an Olympian. I was like "How the hell does this guy not know the world record?!"
Olympic but he can't spin his shot putt technique. I'm surprised both of them weren't doing any technique, Eddie could go further than Ryan Crouser if he had technique man's a crazy powerlifter lifts even heavier than Ryan
In 1981 when I was 19 years old on the jr college track team as a decathlete I threw 44’ in practice 41’ 4” in competition. I was 5’7” tall weighed 180lbs benched 385lbs dead lifted just over 500lbs and squat just around 500lbs. I ran the40yds dash in 4.5 and high jumped 6’2”. I had speed, strength, quickness and explosiveness plus excellent technique as a glider. Eddie you are an animal to throw 47’ with technique worse than worse and zero experience. Your strength in beyond incredible but with the shot put it only gets you so far. Technique and body position with all the physical tools coming together right at the point of release takes years to master. Randy Barnes was a helluva athlete who was juiced to the max but his technique was spot on! Ryan Crouser owns the event now. Big strong quick clean with all the tools it takes to launch that puppy real far. Hats off to you Eddie!!! If you learned the finer points of the event I’m sure you’d be in the mid to upper 50s which is excellent in the world of putters.
@@yoochoobb It's a shame really, I've never heard Eddie refer to Geoff even once. I'm not sure he even knows he existed. The comparisons between the 2 are so interesting, especially when you compare Geoffs famous rivalry with an Icelander :)
With the amount of technique I have I wish I could just transfer it to Eddie, it was so hard watching him throw this thing lol 😂 the whole skip jump was frustrating
As some others have said, can we see discus, hammer and javelin as well please Eddie? It is entertaining to watch and actually gives specialist athletes a tip of the hat when we see how bloody hard it is even for a ridiculously strong lad such as yourself.
Take a look at Olympic hammer throw. Talk about technique & explosive strength! 7.26 kg weight on end of a 120 cm cable. Men’s record is something like 87 meters.
Eddie first off, you're a legend. Your technique was hilarious 😂 worth watching the whole video just for that, I've seen people walk out of a pub with more grace after a 20 pint session 😂 I've always thought that I would love to see how a strongman would cope in a game of rugby. You'd make a great number 8 in the pack.
You 3 are absolutely hilarious 😂 that spinning thing might have been the best thing I have ever seen, laugh so hard I fell off the sofa 🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣 would be fun to see more of Hanna, she is adorable 😊😊 lots of love to all of you from Sweden 😊
I threw shot 15.3 in college (hammer thrower) and I’m impressed. A little coaching in my time and yer technique is typical for someone trying for the first time. Also, thanks for showing the videos of Randy Barnes. Cool for you to give the shout out to throwing.
SIR EDDIE HALL I sware you are definitely different gravey you are some man for one man broke the mold when the made you love ur videos especially in these hard times an thank you for them stay safe you an your family
I am in hs with a 12lb pr of 50' 6 and a 16lb pr of 41' 3 and how these dudes just about matched my pr with next to 0 technique is just the most humbling thing. Shot put is definitely one of the most humbling events/sports.
I like the tape measure is all the way to the end.... And after the first throw you realise your never getting close to the end other then bringing the tape measure back ... Great video guys
I loved this video. I was a shot-putter in my youth and my personal best was around 15 meters/50 feet. And at best I was about 1/3rd as strong as either of these gentlemen! The basic technique involves a transfer of power. If you are throwing right-handed, as you release the throw your whole body spins counter-clockwise and you land on your right foot and your left foot winds up behind you. Also, cuts down on the chances of injuring your shoulder.
Hey Eddie, could you do a video chronicling how you got into becoming a you-tuber, how you met Hannah and Pat, some of your most viewed videos and how you produce and edit your videos using what software ect, sort of a behind the scenes
Christian Tovar what are you on about ? I was a shot putter for years and was English schools champion 3x and AAA junior champion ....I know exactly what I’m on about 17m is a good national standard shot put he would win most competitions ...internationally it’s not good enough but he would place in the British championships with ease at 17m possibly 2nd ....and if Eddie isn’t perfectly built for shot putting I give up ,he’s 6’3” and 25 stone + You actually have no idea what you’re on about
@Christian Tovar dont forget hes on a mountain of steroids ,natural he would be closer to 280 and a similar build to a taller kovacks ,plus we know how strong he is ...he has the basis to be an exceptional shot putter hes just done basically 50ft standing not even knowing how to hold the thing and frankly looked like an imbecile ,i guarantee in no time with a hint of any technique he could throw 19-20m
John T you should listen to Christian. Speed is more important and there’s nothing quick about Eddie. BUT when it comes to his cardio level, shot put would be perfect for him.
Joe F shot put is about power which is a combo or speed and strength. What he lacks in speed he makes up for in strength. I think he could do great with technique work.
@@josefoo77 i really shouldnt ...i was a very good shot putter for many years ...if you dont think Eddie could be an amazing shot putter with some training then i dont know what to say :D just because hes a 360lb lump now dont let that cloud you .
The shot put record has stood for 30 years and it’s just now starting to look breakable for a few lads who are similarly strong compared to Eddie and have trained their entire lives for the event. He surely couldn’t get the record no matter how hard he trained.
Can we talk about how much technique matters in this. As a freshman in high school I throw shot further than the strongest man in the world. Technique always wins XD
True. Even in strongman, a guy with better technique might beat out a stronger guy. Still, you can't be a wimpy little dude and just practice technique. Did you see how big that dude was in the video they watched?
I’m calling cap as a freshman you there over 30 feet around 9 meters The average freshman shotput is 23-26 so unless your the best freshman shotputer alive you ain’t beating him Though I do agree technique is far more important than strength
Well done guys... This should be the start of an Olympic Series, trying them all out. So Javalin next please!, I can't wait for the long jump and the pole vault hahaha
It is great for punching power and speed. Since my coach in high school made us practice right and left handed my punching speed and power was incredible. I also did discus and 100m and 200m sprints. I had been lifting weights since I was 12years old and nothing did for my punching power and speed what shot and discus did. It taught me how to truly get the power of my legs and hips into my arms. Just like wrestling in high school took my boxing and martial arts to a new level. The amount of training time and sparring time was insane in wrestling so my timing, distancing, rhythm really increased. It also taught me how to settle in and relax quickly. It also taught me how to feel comfortable super close to my opponent. Amazing how un-related sports can really help with characteristics needed for other sports! Being "athletic" versus being an athlete are totally different things. I think variety is good for the body!
@Geert Matthys @@Outland9000 questionable...the 2m circle and the fact that it's a "shotput" as in you have to push the weight not throw it, equalizes the playing field, but as a general rule they are all over 185 cm tall with wide shoulders.

I threw shot 15.3 in college (hammer thrower) and I’m impressed. A little coaching in my time and yer technique is typical for someone trying for the first time. Also, thanks for showing the videos of Randy Barnes. Cool for you to give the shout out to throwing.
Love the shot put/stone put. Technique is everything. I spin, but gliding is also effective.
LOL get eddies dad to weight it XD
I'm a rugby player/fan and I'm sorry Eddie, but I'm seriously disappointed and outraged at how accurate that impression at 2:43 was.
SIR EDDIE HALL I sware you are definitely different gravey you are some man for one man broke the mold when the made you love ur videos especially in these hard times an thank you for them stay safe you an your family
I am in hs with a 12lb pr of 50' 6 and a 16lb pr of 41' 3 and how these dudes just about matched my pr with next to 0 technique is just the most humbling thing. Shot put is definitely one of the most humbling events/sports.
2:45 I almost spit out my water. Damn, that was hilarious. 😄
1:37 who else knew this was coming? I literally said it with him... "A record of the world".
Big love the beast great video full of inspiring effort cheers
I like the tape measure is all the way to the end.... And after the first throw you realise your never getting close to the end other then bringing the tape measure back ... Great video guys
01:38 sit down children.... gather around
11:24 Bet Hannah has to put up with this all the time with these 2 😂
Respect for you for not letting strongman ego from showing us how much you respect a guy that has incredible skill and power
I love that even though its not a sport he does but when he sees an athlete doing something awesome he can recognize it
Eddie you’re ruthless😭
"That's a 2m circumference diameter" We call that 'Geometr-Eddie'
we had a start facing backwards bending forwards on one leg then double hop spin n fling method taught to us at school. gosh i am old. x x
I loved this video. I was a shot-putter in my youth and my personal best was around 15 meters/50 feet. And at best I was about 1/3rd as strong as either of these gentlemen! The basic technique involves a transfer of power. If you are throwing right-handed, as you release the throw your whole body spins counter-clockwise and you land on your right foot and your left foot winds up behind you. Also, cuts down on the chances of injuring your shoulder.
(All throwers are laughing right now 😂😂)
Hhaah
Ha
Yeah 😂😂
Next we need the hammer throw, that could be interesting
Well done Guys. As a former throws coach, it is all about enjoying the sport!
You're doing great! Just keep those hands up. They're always the first to go during a fight
Hey Eddie, could you do a video chronicling how you got into becoming a you-tuber, how you met Hannah and Pat, some of your most viewed videos and how you produce and edit your videos using what software ect, sort of a behind the scenes
eddie is perfectly built for it ...if he had even 10% technique he would easily be pushing a good national standard of 17m or so
Christian Tovar what are you on about ? I was a shot putter for years and was English schools champion 3x and AAA junior champion ....I know exactly what I’m on about 17m is a good national standard shot put he would win most competitions ...internationally it’s not good enough but he would place in the British championships with ease at 17m possibly 2nd ....and if Eddie isn’t perfectly built for shot putting I give up ,he’s 6’3” and 25 stone +
You actually have no idea what you’re on about
@Christian Tovar dont forget hes on a mountain of steroids ,natural he would be closer to 280 and a similar build to a taller kovacks ,plus we know how strong he is ...he has the basis to be an exceptional shot putter hes just done basically 50ft standing not even knowing how to hold the thing and frankly looked like an imbecile ,i guarantee in no time with a hint of any technique he could throw 19-20m
John T you should listen to Christian. Speed is more important and there’s nothing quick about Eddie. BUT when it comes to his cardio level, shot put would be perfect for him.
Joe F shot put is about power which is a combo or speed and strength. What he lacks in speed he makes up for in strength. I think he could do great with technique work.
@@josefoo77 i really shouldnt ...i was a very good shot putter for many years ...if you dont think Eddie could be an amazing shot putter with some training then i dont know what to say :D just because hes a 360lb lump now dont let that cloud you .
Shot put requires a lot of strength, but the unreal technique and sheer explosion in the toss is AWESOME
Loved the spin, Eddie 'Twinkletoes' Hall at his finest :D
I have know doubt Eddie could break any world record if he could his mind to it! That's why Arnold nick named him the Beast.
Nah man, he has muscle but not technique. The world record holders have trained years
I like Eddie but that’s simply not true
@Zako you no it
The shot put record has stood for 30 years and it’s just now starting to look breakable for a few lads who are similarly strong compared to Eddie and have trained their entire lives for the event. He surely couldn’t get the record no matter how hard he trained.
Geoff capes Olympic and commonwealth medalist at shot putt went on to become WSM x2
Geoff was a rare beast.
I love how they do the spin, Stop and then throw. LOL great form.
great fun. thanks guys and gal.
Council: I think we have a mole problem. They keep digging holes in the field.
Eddie and Patrick: yep!
Can we talk about how much technique matters in this. As a freshman in high school I throw shot further than the strongest man in the world. Technique always wins XD
Weilan Howell HS shot put is only 12 pounds/5.4 kilos
@@fradee2830 not always we were training with olipic weight
True. Even in strongman, a guy with better technique might beat out a stronger guy. Still, you can't be a wimpy little dude and just practice technique. Did you see how big that dude was in the video they watched?
Imagine if he learnt the technique.
I’m calling cap as a freshman you there over 30 feet around 9 meters
The average freshman shotput is 23-26 so unless your the best freshman shotputer alive you ain’t beating him
Though I do agree technique is far more important than strength
Well done guys... This should be the start of an Olympic Series, trying them all out. So Javalin next please!, I can't wait for the long jump and the pole vault hahaha
It is great for punching power and speed. Since my coach in high school made us practice right and left handed my punching speed and power was incredible. I also did discus and 100m and 200m sprints. I had been lifting weights since I was 12years old and nothing did for my punching power and speed what shot and discus did. It taught me how to truly get the power of my legs and hips into my arms. Just like wrestling in high school took my boxing and martial arts to a new level. The amount of training time and sparring time was insane in wrestling so my timing, distancing, rhythm really increased. It also taught me how to settle in and relax quickly. It also taught me how to feel comfortable super close to my opponent. Amazing how un-related sports can really help with characteristics needed for other sports! Being "athletic" versus being an athlete are totally different things. I think variety is good for the body!
Shotput is for real tall beefy dudes I remember a kid in my class who was 6ft6 at 13 being good at it in a junior level. He became an architect later
Shotputters (Is that the right term?) are units!
@Geert Matthys @@Outland9000 questionable...the 2m circle and the fact that it's a "shotput" as in you have to push the weight not throw it, equalizes the playing field, but as a general rule they are all over 185 cm tall with wide shoulders.
Only if you throw glide, or discus. eddie is more than tall enough for spin even though it will take him years to get good at it.
Lmao!! His dad weighed it so it's fine 😂😂love it
Eddie is just fucking awesome man. 150% love the content!
Great video! Would like to see you do another video on the shot put and discus.
