- Welcome to the World Athletics Watch Party. Remember you can join the conversation on Twitter using the #WatchWorldAthletics hashtag.
Tonight we focus on the men's shot put, with an opening effort Ryan Crouser produced the longest throw in World Championships history with 22.36m
By the end, that mark was just the equal-seventh best of the night in what proved to be the greatest - and closest - shot put competition ever.
USA’s 2015 world champion Joe Kovacs produced one of the biggest upsets of the championships by unleashing a final-round effort of 22.91m to take the title. After a thrilling final round, just one centimetre ultimately separated the three medallists with Crouser taking second place on countback from Tom Walsh, both throwing 22.90m.

Crazy 22.53 would have won all world championships and olympics prior to this meet. Greatest shot put competition in history!
I don’t know where everyone else it from but this event didn’t get the attention it deserved.

@@scotthamilton6062 you are absolutely right. I was there, and for me, it was the greatest showdown of the competition. And you really had to feel for Romani. He was in the form of his life the whole season, winning Pan Am and Diamond League meetings.
GFW777 there’s always one.
Imagine it’s 1775, you are in a cargo ship sailing in the high seas. In the distance you see a pirate ship. You prepare for the worst. But as it inches closer, you realise it doesn’t have canons. Not a single one. You are now just 20m away from the pirate ship. You wonder what they would do as they have no apparent weapons. Suddenly, a dozen men appear on the deck of that pirate ship, with lead balls held on their cheeks. You weren’t prepared. “I wasn’t prepared.” reads your tombstone.
Well that was hilarious.
ahahah x)
Lol that was awesome.
A hilarious anachronism indeed 🤣
To be fair, in 1775, there was no one that could throw nearly as far as 20m.
The 8 longest throws in world championship history were thrown in this competition alone:
1. Kovacs 22.91
T-2. Crouser 22.90
T-2. Walsh 22.90
4. Crouser 22.71
5. Walsh 22.56
6. Romani 22.53
T-7. Crouser 22.36
T-7. Crouser 22.36
The left upright at soldier field Best athletics event ever.
And all of them absolutely destroyed the previous championship record of 22.23m held by Werner Gunthor from 1987!
The fact that these 8 throws were made by 4 men goes to show the elite putters they really are.
Update your stats, 23.30 by crouser in 2021 tokyo olympic final
@@user-ce4ru1vs2i that’s not considered part of the world championships
These announcers got me rollin, the stuff they say is so out of pocket. "Here he is, He looks as if he's as wide as he is tall"
boi thicc
Romani is a beast
didn't bat an eyebrow
The British commentators are always fun. Ours in the US are often just too matter-of-fact and plain.
@@Horzzo isn't that a good thing
the difference in builds and technique is crazy ...Crouser tall and rangy with that long slow style where he seems to have forever in the circle ....kovacs built like a tank and the speed ,balance and explosion of walsh is insane
God loves you
“1cm goes a long way” - every girl thats ever dumped me
How heavy is that ball?

@@Turtlemilk 16 pounds or 7.26 kg
I see what you did there
No medal for 22.53. That's insane. Don't feel too bad, Romani, even 22.89 wouldn't have won a medal.
Yo, thats crazy
Surely there has never been 4 athletes go under the previous championship record in the same event.
Scott Hamilton I highly doubt it. Crouser himself broke the old record 4 separate times
Alex Cabson Well under In running events and above in jumping and throwing.
He didnt yell on his last one all of his good throws he yelled he, normally id say that as a joke but when kovacs threw that massive throw i think it broke romani’s spirit especially considering how close hes been in the past
One of the greatest competitions of all time, not just in shot put🤩
Definitely
Close to Carl Lewis vs. Mike Powell in the long jump at the World Championships in Tokyo in '91
@@ryanhuisman5381 yeah very, except it wasnt a world record on the line
@@juanpablomarquet9103 i need to see that one
Ryan Huisman this wasn’t really that much of a back and forth, just two big jumps back to back. Not up there for me personally
It’s funny how the whole time they talking bout crouser vs Walsh and kovacs comes out of nowhere to smash it on his final throw to win the gold
You have to think what if the judges got the measurement slightly wrong, I mean it's 10mm to it, So close.
kasparov9 I believe they use an electronic measurement that’s accurate within less than a centimeter
@@theleftuprightatsoldierfield yes but they start the measurement from a location decided by the naked eye.
How heavy is that ball
@@kasparov9 15:21
It was great to see the respect between athletes. Sportsmanship is still alive.
I got 20 minutes in before realizing this wasn’t the Olympics…
I didn't realize until I just read your comment. Fuck, I'm stupid.
I paused started reading comments at 6:49 and was like shit this was a year ago lol
Good. Fuck the olympics. This is the best shot put competition in history.
Holy shit I'm dumb as shit
Same here. I couldn't figure why no one was talking about Ryan Crouser breaking the world record in the trials. Well he hadn't done it yet.
Best event of the championship by a landslide, probably the best event ever for the world champs in any discipline. Insane!!!!
@Elias Håkansson I think this would be better if the comentators had some energy because it kinds of ruin the adrenaline of the moment
17:32 Kovac's scream was hilarious and he sounded like he was pumped
19:54 Crouser almost got the win but wow great throw
21:11 Walsh with a funny roar 😆😂😂
That commentator was fantastic! This was an epic competition, but his excitement upped the intensity by a mile. I keep periodically coming back just to hear him say "massive", but dude gets me going every time, like it's the first time watching.
God loves you ❤️
@@josettexginindza Did you ask him? Which one of the thousands of gods?
This was absolutely mental. Not being able to watch live sports because of the pandemic, I'm very grateful to still be able watch high caliber competitions like this. Thanks, World Athletics.
Hi
Hi
Dear World Athletics,
Thanks for listening.
Sincerely,
Throwers Everywhere

Amen!!!
True dat!!!
Now just show us the discus
Jon Paul de Vera bruh what is this comment
11:35 me watching the waiter bring fajitas to someone elses table
Oddly specific
Who hurt you
@@guywithnoname9513 stfu before I kiss you homie
😂 dude was buggin 😳👀
and finding out they are all out of fajitas for the rest of the evening
“3 men separated by a single centimeter” 😂 best quote ever.
We saw someone realize they weren’t going to win a medal playing the way they normally do, push past their own limits and succeed. Congratulations Kovacs awesome win, it was well deserved.
God loves you ❤️
phenomenal performance, tokyo 2021 is gonna be nuts !!
@@sequiaonda78 oh my god
@@sequiaonda78 they are gonna postpone it til 2021
Alex Cabson they postponed it until next year
@@sequiaonda78 i most want to see Lasha total 500kg in weightlifting but a 24m shot put also would be amazing :D
@@theleftuprightatsoldierfield yeah about that...
I always looked back to this when I'm feeling down or lazy,cause the sheer amount of raw strength displayed always brings me up
more than that I reckon is men of such bulk with the precision and timing of a ballerina in that circle
The greatest contest of all time
Right in league with Tokyo 1991 in the men's long jump.
Darlan Romani is my favourite athlete. Really a enormous man weighting about 140kg-no wonder he is top 10 in the world
and he even smiles when the others say "luv ya Darlin' '" ....good sport indeed
Several references to Kovak's wife without a single mention about her being his coach.
Wow i didn't know that
wow, SO sexist. I hate this society
And Crouser's dad is mentioned as his coach. 20:20 But the odd thing is at Kovak's Wikipedia page it fails to mention he is married or even has a coach. Time to add that. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Kovacs
Maybe she should get out there and show how awesome she can shot put aye 🤔
Why do they need to mention that his wife is also his coach? Do they need to mention that his wife is also a bicyclists and likes to eat pizza? Stop trying to input sexism where there isn't any. I'm sure his wife thinks more of herself than "my husband's coach". The spotlight of this video is on Kovaks, not his wife.
Totally random comment... but I wonder what these guys would have looked like, had they opted for marathon instead.
car salesman. They arent built for marathon running.
@@sammcneil20 Why would you assume that? With training you can drastically adapt your body. They weren't born with this physique, they made it happen. PS: I didn't catch your car salesman reference.
@@JulienNeel I was just making a joke that the probably wouldn't be good enough to be a pro athlete unless following their calling so they would likely have a normal job.
Also you are correct, they could adapt their bodies, not really worth looking too deep into that hypothetical though lol.
@@JulienNeel Not to that extent you can't. These are heavy ass tall guys with a broad frame. The average marathon runners are just under 175cm tall and weigh under 60kg..
Well tanks are slow so...
Waited so long for the full
I love watching Shot Put with all my heart.
Track and field has really stepped up their game on presentation and really making it an event
Walsh and Crouser: "I'm going home with the gold medal."
Kovacs: ''Hold my beer Romani.''
Jesus loves you ❤️
Yay I love watching beer-gut buff guy cannonball chuckin contests
You will also love beer gut buff guy giant rock lugging contests too
@@thui7889 the brazilian guy even looks very similar to Zydrunas
@@MajesticSkywhale imma need a reply of that foul..15:20
Always love seeing the camaraderie from the field event groups these guys have no trouble showing their competitors support
God loves you ❤️
Kovacs expression priceless. Nice job big guy, I replayed his throw 10 times, I love the enthusiasm.. no lie
A 7kg shot is so heavy.....to throw it 22.91 what a beast..
i have watched this like 5 times its insane
Tom Walsh! We love you from New Zealand. Too good my bro.
That was a rollercoaster of emotion.
a total joy to watch. Best competition of all time
It's amazing how many views track and field events have compared to mainstream sports views. There is huge appetite T&F sports, however sports body have not moved on with times and cannot create an attractive package for viewers.
Wow, just found this video. One of the best competitions I've ever seen in any event!
America is so proud of you guys! What a pleasure to watch!
First time I have watched anything shot put related. Did not disappoint.
I've been waiting a long time for this upload, it still get goosebumps when i watch this, the best shot put competition ever!
Me too I literally just got goosebumps. I can’t imagine how it feels. Extraordinary
Me too
Absolutely amazing competition!
What a massive competition. I'm with you Tom Walsh!
Amazing competition. Enjoyed every minute of it. Wow!
God loves you ❤️
These videos are gold in middle of pandemic
Jesus loves you ❤️
Extremely exciting competition. Thank you World Athletics!!
As exciting as watching paint dry.
No talk of technological advancements here! Just raw talent on display!
it's been good to see the other Kiwi, Jacko Gill, gradually increasing his disances in the years following this event. At the Commonwealth Games in 2022 he set his new best of 21.90 to finish second behind Tom Walsh's 22.26m. He has had health issues (myocarditis hospitalised him for 12 days before Xmas 2017) and was the best junior thrower in the world by a mile, setting WR in every age group at every weight.
He is the youngest ever world junior champion, winning the world juniors at 15 before winning the world juniors again at 17.
Props to him for never giving up. Next step for him will be 22m+
This immediately became my favorite competition when I saw it
When you throw 22.90m and in the stat sheet all you get is - PB
Wow...this is one of the most impressive athletic events I've ever seen. SO many records broken! I love when athletes fuel eachother via their amazing performances
It is very exciting to watch. Superb efforts from all competitors but what an exciting finish.
Glad to see the Worlds' Strongest Man competitors found an Olympic sport.
If Crouser hit that straight at the end with the right timing it would've been 23m
And he will, in 2020 or 2021.
Yep exactly!
All day
Well now he went for 23.37
@@jacktorrance6265 where?
That was super fun to watch!
BEEFCAKE! absolute fckn animals of competition making each other better. What a show!
Greatest Athletics Competition... Ever!
11:36 there has to be a meme with that look
que hermoso que es el deporte!! uniendo a la gente alrededor del mundo
Wow!amazing Men of strength! Congratulations!
No doubt the best shot out competition ever‼️
You better sit down Randy Barnes!!
I love watching big guys sports
This is literally my favorite video to watch
Announcer: “Crosser launches a big one”
Me: every morning
It’s 4 am and I’m watching this cause CZcams recommended it. I never even knew this was a thing prior to tonight lol
You have never seen a shot put??
@@codypeterson7166 never
The olympics shot put has just started
As a runner, I've always gravitated to the weight guys after meets. There's a kinda gruff, rowdy but friendly brotherhood with these guys. Runners are generally self absorbed, somewhat vain and mostly unsociable during meets. But these guys who hurl the disc, fling the hammer, spin the shot: They're real people !! They're joke around , talk a little trash, BUT I've always watched them help each other iron out their techniques, slap each other's backs after a throw(good or bad) encourage each other. They are , no doubt, truly a close knit brotherly love group. Unlike the sprinters, There is no animosity or hard grudges..
Right on Maureen! Thanks for the awesome insight!
This is the meet that made Ryan Crouser go BEAST MODE
Its insane to think Walsh ended up getting a bronze medal in the end. Absolutely mental.
20:11 when you match with a girl on tinder
Do a pirouette?🤣
You're just 1 cm too short.
Holy cow! That was a fantastic competition!
I once threw against Brian Oldfield (first guy over 75' and he made the rotation style legal) as he was coming up...he was a soph...I told Dutch Warmerdam, my coach, "he's going to be the World Champion"...Brian was smoking a cigarette as we were in line waiting to throw...it was the most outrageous thing I ever saw in Track...
That was hard to watch as I am a Kiwi but WELL DONE! to the US boys!!! 👑USA👑
Hands down the best mens shotput ever!
Proud of this American team.
Love their battle shouts. Holy shit those spinning moves when they toss it.
No, its fucking annoying
Its crazy how insanely athletic these guys are, just to see who can throw a heavy ball really far 👀
First time ever watching this sport. I’m entertained
I have always loved athletics due to our national hero Maria Mutola. Bt I have only followed it closely from 2014 onwards and let me tell you the Shot Put M, Pole Vault MnW, 400m M, 400mH M and 3000mS W are the events improving every year. Shame they are underrated
Rest in Peace Brian Oldfield USA !!!
Jesus loves you
I would love to build an offensive line with these guys.
I lived in Doha for several years. It's a great place. Some good adventures there.
God loves you ❤️
Congratulations young man awesome throws yes sir!!!!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Can you do the pole vault pleaseee😥then you make me very happy🤣🤣🤣😁😁
Just found shot put. Now I can tell people I look like an athlete.
Says something to doing your best. 😊Wow..all three guys are awesome.
God loves you ❤️
This was great to watch.
had no interest in Shot Put but this final was better than a movie, so many highlights
What I love about Crouser is just how slow he is until he gets to the front and then he just explodes.
Most explosive person there for sure
Great competition and what a fun commentator too
3rd place was 99% of the world record. In discus, this would be 73.40m for 3rd place. Crazy!
This is still not the "full competition".. showing every attempt (for field events) is what "full competition" means. At least show the top performance for each competitor, in addition to other notable performances. Tim Nedow and Armin Sinancevic don't appear at all in this video, while the top throws for Hill, Bukowiecki, and Mihaljevic are absent. I understand editing constraints, but this seems really doable.. If editing really is the issue, then field event fans would be delighted with an unedited live stream of the event. In fact that would probably be preferable.
They wont show nedow’s throws because they called a ghost foul on a round 1 bomb
Wow this is the craziest performance in athletics history. We need to see the WR go down soon
