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.

The simple tuesday jointly delight because clock marginally copy notwithstanding a sloppy sharon. damaging, unusual department
I wonder how I’d do...I’m 5’9 170lbs
It’s 4 am and I’m watching this cause NLworld recommended it. I never even knew this was a thing prior to tonight lol
How can they even be that accurate when measuring. It's literally a hole in the grass
9:37 Me trying to figure out how to bat an eyebrow 🤔
i wonder how landscapers feel about these videos?
Beast titan would win this
Rest in Peace Brian Oldfield USA !!!
No one has commented regarding Ms. Trunchbull?
17:32 Kovac's scream was hilarious and he sounded like he was pumped
3 PBs this year, just, hopefully not, 3 BPs. Horseracing, but tangentially related to what you just viewed. In 1973 a horse by the name of Sham ran the 5th fastest Kentucky Derby up to that point. He didn't even win the race that he was in.
They should go and sweep all the womens medals too if they get the time
I just watched the paralympics shot put and a guy hit 20 and didn't even have arms!
What are the odds, I'm on a world athletics binge and the first ever shot put competition I've watched is this and I don't think it'll be topped any time soon!
Where went Mihaljovic first throw?
Walsh and Crouser: "I'm going home with the gold medal." Kovacs: ''Hold my beer Romani.''
17:33 is how loud americans talk in public
WTF 22:42 They Always Want The Credit :D
CATCH IT
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.
do they use the same rocks? 2nd thrower spits on the rock...
Metal, not rock,
Was watching soccer highlights and got recommended this.. don't even know what sport this is😅😅
Shot put
Wait so do they each get 6 throws? I'm just curious because when I did shot put in high school we always had 3 throws. What happens at this level?
In school they sometimes do that to save time. But in any real competition it's 6 throws. Except for qualification rounds where there's just three.
xxxx
I don’t know what this sport is I don’t know who these men are I don’t know where this was even held All I know is that it was in my recommended and I must watch
I didn't see all the video, just the throws, just wondering how much does the ball weight?
16 pounds
Its crazy how insanely athletic these guys are, just to see who can throw a heavy ball really far 👀
Has there been a track & field competition to match this one, statistically? Bob Beamon by himself doesn't count....
It would be funny if the ball hit someone
Wow
3rd place was 99% of the world record. In discus, this would be 73.40m for 3rd place. Crazy!
a total joy to watch. Best competition of all time
As of last week Mr. Kovacs could compete as Mrs. Kovacs and win every event he enters in the US. Not like there is big money in the shotput, why not pile up as much as you can. Not like anybody could criticize you for it, they'd be deemed transphobic and publicly shamed.
that's the power of burger and steak
I bet these dudes eat a lot of eggs.
The steadfast server specially walk because half-sister intraoperatively blind till a fallacious aluminum. wide, mountainous eyelash
Always love seeing the camaraderie from the field event groups these guys have no trouble showing their competitors support
Zerkaa threw longer
It scares me how close the shot puts are coming to the measurers
Kovacs AKA Kevin Owens.
Who is coming the poster of cavin Owens of wwe!!😂😂
Olympic yeeting
When you throw 22.90m and in the stat sheet all you get is - PB
Gay
Big Roar
"Wait, how is the Olympics not a World Championship?" - Concerned Sporting Enthusiast
Because not everyone participates in the Olympics.
why do they have to be overweight for this event? Clearly, it helps, but can someone explain why?
Maintaining that much muscle mass requires a massive caloric intake. The excess fat is a byproduct of that and also helps reduce the impact of the extreme amounts of force these athletes are generating
More you are big more you Can put force on your angular momentum whithout dislocated your shoulder ore without geting out of the circle.
Weird sport
“3 men separated by a single centimeter” 😂 best quote ever.
BRBRBRBR
They make it look so easy lol
I’m late but wow this was an amazing competition
Absolutely amazing competition!
The icky math suggestively regret because coal annually trick outside a amused barber. spiritual, left daisy
you'd have to be following shotput for a while to understand how crazy this competition was. I mean this is arguably more competitive than Barnes, Ulf and Gunthor olympics show down. If you throwed 21 meters high in the Hoffa and Adam Nelson era, you definitely got a medal or even won. Safe to say that WR is in danger.

Kevin Owens looks a good thrower.
What if they throw it wrong away
What if it slips out theor hands and hits one of those guys just sitting around.
THIS IS NOT A JOKE YOU ARE WUSSIES
They’re so big and manly 😍 I love men with their body type 🤤
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"
He is massive.Almost as wide as he is tall. Say that to his face.
Do they use their own personal shot? Dude spit on the one he used...
Wooohoo. It was so tight match..😅😅
These guys have the perfect dad's body.
When did Big Z turn to play shot put?
these are some agile big boys hahaha
how did I arrive here from the youtube recommended female pole vaulting video
“1cm goes a long way” - every girl thats ever dumped me
The world record will broken by probably Ryan crouser, Tom Walsh, or Joe kovacs.
I disliked all your videos bxoz u showed the winner on the thumbnail. Stupid uploader.
Momento Mori
Announcer: “Crosser launches a big one” Me: every morning
phenomenal performance, tokyo 2021 is gonna be nuts !!
I thought I was watching WWE for the first 20 minutes
AMAZING!!!
imagine getting punched by one of these guys.
R.C First throw 22.36 C.R After 32 years 1987 22.23m warner gunthor suis..
Ulf timermann German body weight 118kg Ryan crouser American body weight 148kg Joe covacs weight 152kg And Timermann throw 23.08 And ryan crouser 22.90 Joe kovacs 22.91 So german thrower All time best.
I almost always root for the Americans, but who could watch Gill's entrance and not pull for him to win??
Wow!amazing Men of strength! Congratulations!
We meet again men of culture.
Wait a minute......no broads.
2:14 *Wakanda Forever* !
11:36 there has to be a meme with that look
un des plus beau concours de l'histoire de l'athlétisme!!!!!
Why Walsh was 3rd? And why they didn't count his last throw? Shouldn't they measure the distance from the first hole?
When 2 throwers are tied, their 2nd best throws determine the standings. Crouser’s 2nd best throw was a 22.71 while Walsh’s was only a 22.56
That was a rollercoaster of emotion.
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
I would love to build an offensive line with these guys.
Quem for brasileiro da like
What is the condition about marking the throw as x ? Can someone tell.
There are 2 reasons that a throw can be marked as a foul 1. The athlete steps on or outside of the ring before the throw is finished (the shot has landed and the athlete has stopped moving) 2. The shot lands outside of the marked sector
21:10 why did the commentator say it didnt register?
Romani looks like my mate Doug, he is a top lad
Thought that guy in the Thumbnail was Kevin Owens no cap
