I can't tell if Wilt's normal handshake is just so abnormally strong, or was Shaq's reaction because Wilt intentionally gave Shaq a power handshake. Some guys do that, they like to show off how manly they are to other men and practically tear your arm off. I know an old man that does it, he's nearly 80 years old but likes to give power hand shakes. So it's hard to tell if Shaq's reaction was "bro, do you really need to give an unnecessary handshake like that!?" Would Wilt shake the hand of non-NBA players like that?

In 1981 was working the door at the Blue Water Cafe on Waikiki. I was used to seeing huge people since there are plenty of professional athletes who would come to Hawaii on vacation as well as some really big Hawaiians and Samoans who worked as bouncers in the clubs. Wilt walked in one night and I basically had to reprogram myself to what I had always thought of as being really big. I shook his hand and remember that he seemed to cradle my hand like an adult might do to keep from hurting a child. I had always thought of myself as being pretty strong because I pretty much lived in the gym back then. I'll never forget how I went from feeling strong to feeling almost powerless when I was next to Wilt.

[@diesel1344]

A friend of mine and I, with some lady friends, were in a restaurant on the Wharf in 1968 in SF when Wilt walked in and sat at the next table. Sitting down he looked like a really strong guy of maybe 6'6". He was so well proportioned you could not believe it when he stood up. We said hello and he was extremely polite and shook our hands and I think he could have wrapped his hand twice around mine. He then left with the three gorgeous ladies that accompanied him. Saw Russell two weeks later at Cala foods in Berkeley.

He SHOULD also hold just about every blocking record too, but they didn't formally record those. However, it is widely known that he could block more than twenty shots in a good game, and his average blocks per game over his entire career was very likely roughly 7 per game.

People tend to equate Shaq’s size (weight - over weight he was) to strength. There are a lot of big (fat) guys out there that are not necessarily strong. Don’t get me wrong, Shaq was big and strong, but not freakishly strong like Wilt. His bull rush style of play would not have been allowed back in the 60’s. Wilt was just blessed with an unequaled combination of athleticism, agility, strength, stamina, quickness and strength! Unfortunately TV was not prevalent back in the 60s so much of Wilt’s accomplishments have no video footage. He is similar to Ruth in being an anomaly that is hard to fathom due to not a lot of video.

One of the most amazing experiences in my life was getting to play a few minutes of beach volleyball against Wilt Chamberlin. I grew up watching him play with the Lakers and in the summer of 1976, I went to the beach at Santa Monica. After I was done, I was walking back towards the parking area, and at the first court South of the pier, Wilt was playing with some of his buddies and I stopped to watch the game. I had played a bit of recreational ball, but nothing serious. After I had been watching for a few minutes one of the guys looked at his watch and saw he had to go right then in the middle of the game. That left the sides uneven, so they asked if I wanted to fill in to finish the game. Didn’t have to ask me twice. The other guys were of a size and skill level that suggested they were all pro or college players. I was by far the worst player on that court, but the experience was amazing. First, Wilt could legitimately spike out of sand from mid court with ease. Second, you could tell he was careful with his spikes not to hurt anybody and held back if he was spiking at somebody. When he aimed a spike at an empty spot and really let go, it sounded like a rifle shot. I’m sure if you caught the full force of one on your forearms it could break a bone. I reached for one and it grazed my forearm and gave me a noticeable abrasion. None of the other players were anything close to his power level or jumping ability.

One time I was in the Alaskan mountain ranges with wilt chamberlain hunting Kodiak bears and he literally strangled one of them to death. Afterwards it takes me about 14 hours just to skin one bear pelt but wilt on the other hand collected 2 pelts in about 8 hours and afterwards carried all four 100 pound pelts into our log cabin 22 miles away by hand

[@bp4187]

Wilt was an extraordinary natural athlete. Few know he could run like a deer: He ran the 440 yd dash (400 meters) in under 50 seconds at Kansas as an undergraduate. A noteworthy feat in the mid 50's, but amazing for someone not on the track team.

[@jimshepard8822]

Wilt was fast, he ran the 100yd dash in 10.9 sec ! That’s just short of impossible, for a 7 footer !!

[@davidresler4737]

400 meters under 50seconds world record is 43 seconds. Give u an idea about his speed & stamina

Wilt was the Big 8 high jump champ 3 years running .....back in the days of the scissorlegged jump. ...Just one example of his phenomenal athleticism. He was a first rate sprinter and quarter miler, too. Makes me wonder if he could have gotten his giant body over a pole vault bar. For sure he could handle, at a world class level, all the other decathlon events without even prepping for them!

[@ngc-fo5te]

No he didn't. It was the Big 7 back then and he won it once - with an unimpressive height. You have fallen for the Wilt Track & Field list of exaggerated bullshit. He was no sprinter, his 440yd times were no great and neither was his high jump that great.

[@gripitandripit]

I’ve seen other people tell stories about Wilt Chamberlain, and they along with Wilt often embellish stories when you look at the evidence if there is any. The biggest issue I see with Wilt’s stories is there’s rarely any evidence to back it up so you have to take somebody’s word for it. And what I’ve noticed is that when other people tell the same stories the numbers sometimes get bigger.

[@bradreid6057]

Wilt was super strong, no doubt about it. I interviewed '56 Silver/'60 Gold Olympic shot put medalist, Bill Nieder, about 25 years ago for a biographical article and he told me what actually happened by the dorm one day. Wilt used an overhand, 2-hand "put" where one stands backward and slings it overhead. You see shot-putters often do this as a warm-up. Bill, was right-handed, but the bet required him and Al Oerter (also right handed) to use their left hands. I don't mean to demean Wilt but no one can seriously believe he could out-throw the Olympic silver medalist, soon to be gold medalist shot putter. Too, Al Oerter thought Wilt had great potential in the discus because of his arm span, worked with him but Wilt never progressed as much as he thought he might, his height making a discus ring look like a sewer plate. But, Wilt was a superman. He was also an excellent high jumper and I believe he tied an SMU jumper for 1st place at the Kansas or Drake Relays one year at around 6'7". As best I know, he wasn't his conference's high jump champ. Unbeknownst to many, Bill Russell actually had a better high jump. I believe he jumped 6'9" while he was in college. Bill was just a shade behind the top high jumper in the USA but chose to go to the '56 Olympics as a basketball team member and passed on the '56 Olympic Trials in the high jump. Wilt's supposed weight lifting? Nah! Most of it is gross hyperbole. There is no video evidence of Wilt doing giant lifts. Anyway, he was one in a hundred million and way ahead of the pack early on in his pro basketball days and he played well and stayed athletically active all the way to the end. He really seemed to like to compete. Most of his teammates will tell you he was a man of tall stories about himself, had a giant ego. One of the greats!!!

[@MichaelStewart-j1l]

Wilt, I understand cleared 6'6" in the high jump. But I heard on one of these videos that he led the Big 8 Conference in the high jump three years in a row at 7'1". When Bill Russell was in high school in San Francisco his arch rival in the high jump was singer Johnny Mathis, who was better, and was the one invited to the Olympics, which he turned down.

[@bradreid6057]

@@MichaelStewart-j1l No, Wilt never high jumped 7'1" at least not in a competition. I think the 6'6" or an inch or so more was his best. If he had specialized? Sure! And, Bill Russell had a legitimate chance to win a berth to the '56 Games but chose not to choosing basketball over T&F. No, Johnny Mathis wasn't better than Russell; his best was 6'5.5". People aren't invited to the Olympics, they have to qualify by winning a spot at the Olympic Trials. Mathis didn't compete at the '56 Olympic Trials. Chose singing. Both men were fine athletes; both made the proper decisions!!!

[@MichaelStewart-j1l]

No sir I meant he led the Big 8 three years in a row in the high jump. With a personal best of 6'6". With him at a standing height of 7'1".

[@bradreid6057]

@@MichaelStewart-j1l Gotcha! Yes, he might've competed 3 yrs. Hard to say what the basketball coach allowed not wanting him to get injured.

[@MichaelStewart-j1l]

@@bradreid6057 I saw footage of his high jumping! He had to extend both his arms and legs forward down to land like a cat in that 'below sea level' sand pit! And he did it like takin' a Sunday stroll. I sure hope they came up with a better mouse trap by the '68 Olympics, or Dick Fosberry must've used his Gold Medal as an Endswell!

Actually uf u want true story. He really is. Go look every interview and then search his pendant around his neck on google. Well if u zoom in it will show u Free Mason Egyptian pyramid but without peak top cause it stands around his neck considering that Wilt head is that top of pyramide. Then zoom into center of it and see Pharao head. It is RA, the highest God of Egypt.

To add onto my previous comment : search Wilt Chamberlain necklace. He wear that everytime. That is resemble of Free Mason RA Egyptian highest God !! He created pyramide as 1 of the alien race.

My dad took me to Warrior games. At a Celtics game, Jim Luscatoff of the Celtics had been all over Wilt, and no fouls were called. You could hear Wilt complain to the refs, he was getting pissed. At one point, Luscatoff is holding Wilt contesting a rebound. Wilt shrugged and tossed Luscatoff from flying from the court into the second row. You could feel the fans' awe at seeing that.
