The closest anyone has come to throwing a javelin 100m in modern times is Jan Železný. He set his lifetime best of 98.48m. Can Thomas Röhler break his barrier and break the record?

    "yeah let's just get a cameraman over there about a foot away from the 100m mark"

    I love that there's still one of those goals to reach. 10s in the 100m was beaten long ago. 10m in long jump seems virtually impossible. I really hope to see a 100m throw in my lifetime :)
  • The magic in his eyes when he said “the javelin just went” is like the kid dreaming of that same moment still lives. Amazing Doc.

    Before Roger Bannister ran a 4 minute mile, nobody thought it was physically possible. 100m is on the cards for the javelin, for sure. Who will do it, and when, that's the question. Rohler, Hoffman, Vetter, Chopra, Kirk ... and more ... all have the potential. There's a lot of great throwers around these days. Best of luck to you all.

    I’m sorry I stabbed the cameraman from nearly 100m away, I can’t help that I’m a Gemini
  • @noahweese805
