This is Why You NEVER Mess With The G.O.A.T

[@Quickhand413]

Cutting yourself off with the clips was freaking gold dude. Really drives home how crazy Jan and the competition was

[@dontneedme25]

I just busted out laughing it was great

[@theerictalbert2841]

Your vids have gotten me excited about all sorts of Field events this upcoming track season. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty excited to see what is in store for Javelin this coming track season. One man that has shown massive improvement over these last couple of years is Johannes Vetter, who holds the second furthest throw of 97.76 meters. He would definitely be an individual to take a look at this upcoming season.

[@Juve_Uke]

He was the favorite for 2021 in Tokyo, unfortunate that he couldn't bring his best to the finals

[@timmytheinventor4746]

Bro, Vetter has been the favourite or the past like 5 years. You didn’t discover some new and rapidly improving athlete who will finally have something to prove on the world stage, you basically found a veteran.

[@TheUKNutter]

I saw a video of Jan throwing a javelin in his 50's showing his students how to throw it properly. Man's still got it

[@IwontSay]

He threw 84.50m its confirmed by Petr Frydrych.

[@TheUKNutter]

@@IwontSay Someone should send running productions thst video.p

[@SilencedButNotForgotten]

TRP should make a video about it hahaha

[@TheVictorLoyiso]

That smile said “now the REAL competition begins!” He was smiling because he knew he had another gear he could unleash.

[@laurenmp7486]

And maybe the wildest thing about Zelezny, he was self-coached from the age of 14. And that for a world class javelin thrower, he was undersized.

[@rm6857]

Wrong, he had many coaches, one of them was Jaroslav Brabec, who trained him almost whole life.

[@slingshotdon]

And clearly he wasn't under sized

[@Dave-lr2wo]

Complete nonsense. He had a number of leading coaches, and nearly his entire family was throwers. He also competed at 6-1, 205. It's not like he was 5-9 and 170.

[@tylerkreim1770]

He was incredible. Not only overall, but his ability to perform in them big meets. Incredible talent and still love watching his throwing vids

[@johnwilson5743]

Excellent video TRP. Thank you for allowing us to view. Great past footage as well. Cheers.

[@willstuart4504]

L... O... L.🤣😂🤣🤣 This video might be my Favorite of everything you've ever produced!!! Normally I'd expect my favorite to be about Sprinting or some elite Sprinter either at the College level or Pro level. However, you had me in stitches with the way you Cut-off your very own commentary with Video Clips essentially proving the opposite of what you were just saying. 👍👍 Well done.... And can you imagine breaking a record in this fashion, only to see another competitor come along and shatter it 2 days later?? But what makes him the GOAT is this throw in a nutshell.

[@SilencedButNotForgotten]

He was 36 years old at the time! INSANE!

[@rm6857]

And he holds 40+y WR, which was like 85meters

[@KitagumaIgen]

@@kevinbell3700 That his shoulder and elbow were still in such good shape - I've been told javelin is a synonym to "ruined shoulder"...

[@BadDrummerCarl]

I love the self cutting for those clips 😂

[@Krishnakumar-wl7ih]

After making 92.80m record.... Jan : Hey Aki... I have used just 70% of my power. Don't make me haul myself to the ground...

[@janondrej]

I am so proud of my little country.

[@grimgamer24]

So long story short, Zelezny held back his power to give others the chance to break his record. xD

[@IwontSay]

Nice video again! You should've added the Sydney 2000 final to.

[@palmtrees177]

I was there in the stands at the corner the javelin landed. Crazy to see 2 guys throw over 90m in the same meet.🎉

[@lamebubblesflysohigh]

One of the best athletes ever. Dominating for so long, so consistently and even after retirement. I would put him into same league as Hakuho for those who are familiar with sumo.

[@incorp2192]

[@paulojrneto]

Ironically, despite having multiple Olympic and World titles, Jan Zelezny never won an European title. The best he did at European Championships was winning bronze in 1994 and 2006.

[@HeckTo]

European champs titles doesn’t mean shit 🙃

[@TheKikkomaster]

That 2006 bronze throw of 85,92m was incredible considering he was 40 years old already. A WR at that age.

It was close. Yego was 92.72, while Zelezny was 92.80. Incredibly close, but still just short

[@t.s.9656]

If ever the term GOAT applied, it surely applies to him.

[@MichaelBrown-wo8si]

[@MichaelBrown-wo8si]

@@Stuka-eo2sz How do you know?

[@Stuka-eo2sz]

@@MichaelBrown-wo8si many tests are given before they can compete, plus they may not be caught immediately they can relook at the tests, like Maria abaumova, wasn’t caught until later in her career zelezny and aki parvanien competed in the era were steroids were caught 9/10, regardless a steroid users technique is not as good as zeleznys or parvaniens was, it can also be determined by how big they get and how fast ( muscle ) Maria abakumova went from small and skinny, to an enormously muscled girl, this happens with the guys too, it’s easily determined if zelezny or parvanien are doping ans neither are not. Now where’s your proof of them doping?

But throwing 98 meters after the 1984 change in javelin is still pretty good

[@Stuka-eo2sz]

He can’t break it bc the rules changed due to the 100m throw

[@Ho3n3r]

Don't comment on something you don't understand.

[@gavinwu7367]

notis r cool

[@toddekramer]

Explain, also, that because of Z’s power, they re-regulated javelin’s center of mass essentially making throws of this distance impossible. The record should remain unbreakable due to a rules change.

[@AudiOhm]

Uwe Hohn holds the "eternal world record" with a throw of 104.80 m as a new type of javelin was implemented in 1986.

No, it’s not impossible at all.
