roald62 Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 I have tried for many years to get this record that has been held since 1880 according to the Guinness book of Records. I threw 132.66 meters / 145 yards 1/2". The video is now up on YouTube I live in the States but am from originally from England. If anyone in India wants a competition I would love to hear from you. :--D
Trichromatic Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 Is this some kind of official record? I mean did you get your name in record book? Congrats!
akshayxyz Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 That is impressive...however I am surprised that the record stayed unbroken for so long!

1983-2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Why did Sky ask you? Because he's a professional javelin thrower, he has represented GB in 2 Olympics and 2 world championship
f.b.m Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Woah nice to have an Olympian on ICF (must be a first). Congratulations on the world record! What techniques or points from javelin would it be possible to incorporate into fielding?
Jersey #10 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I've done 134.72. I would love some competition. I really didn't know there existed a world record for this. What was the previous best?
