Why did you feel the need to use that thumbnail? This was a good video anyway. Update: The guy has since changed the original thumbnail

1:12 this is unbreakable as after that world record they changed how javelins were built so they didn’t go as far so the sport was safer

Little Naim Suleymanoglu is a legend. He was a seven-time World Weightlifting Champion and three-time Olympic Gold Medalist. RIP Pocket Hercules.

Respect for having commentators in different languages makes the videos all the more better

The ski guy was literally flying. God!

goalkeepers scoring goals is a definition of "fine, ill do it myself"

I really appreciate that these compilations that have the original audio rather than voice over commentary! Subscribing

As a former athlete, videos like that bring to tears

anita’s scream before it even landed was a joy to hear

Greatest thumbnail in world history

👏 Congruts to the athletes!

Uwe Hohn's record is so insane they had to change the design of the javelin, hence why Jan Zelezny's record is "only" 98.48m

Still can't get my head around Javier Sotomayor's 2.45m jump. The physics of it just don't make sense.

2:07 Como um humano consegue girar nessa velocidade? Incrível de se ver! E ela é tão experiente que já sentiu que o arremesso foi bom assim que largou.

You can't have a title of greatest world records when you have soccer kicks that are faster than the prior ones...clearly the first one wasn't a world record then.

Look at the height of Duplantis' jump. That guy could jump 6.30 m one day if everything goes perfectly. Insane.

3:55 bro this guy mastered the Mario triple jumps strat

Actually a random collection of world records: some good, some great, some unbelievable - but definitely not exclusively the 'greatest'

Какие великие люди, какой стимул ! 😢😥☺️👍🏻

Bolt actually could of done better if he'd dipped for the line. He just casually ran through the finish.

I like the video. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for including ski jumping!!!

For those who doesnt know Naim was 60 kg. when he did 190 kg.!! thats crazy :D

Best video interested really good

Superb list though the football shots are not quite relevant. But must say that goalkeepers goal is quite freaky!!

Three decades Stefka Kostadinova stands unshakable on the world peak in the high jump. On 30 August, just 30 years ago, the Bulgarian woman puts the still unspoilt world record of 209 cm high jump.

Daniel Komens 1996 2 Miles in 7min 58sec. He is still the only human to have achieved such an amazing time on the track

Lots of good stuff here, including one of my all time favourites, Jonathan Edwards in the triple jump. Such perfect balance throughout as shown by his almost casual landing. But what a shame that his incredible 18.43 (I think) that year was only slightly windy. A wonderful comment I read under an excellent video about him called "The Flying Man" was along the lines of "it's ironic that every time I see a video of this man's incredible jumping, but whose religious beliefs initially prevented him from competing on Sundays until he lost his faith, I find myself saying "Jesus Christ"!"........Brilliant! If the person who wrote that is reading this, I've repeated that line in conversation about sport many times and always ensure that people know if was not my line, but yours, whoever you are.

Usain bolt's 200m wr is even more insane

What I appreciate most is Edwards, a triple record holder with a physique from ... employee next door. A predestined, alien resilience!

Dünya'ya başka bir Naim Süleymanoğlu daha gelmez.👍

Sympa la vidéo 👍👍( dommage un peu qu'il n'y ait pas les dates😉)...

Interesting but never heard of these football speed records before....didn't know that was a thing

Great playing

Thumbnail was used to get views; very “original “. Other than that this was actually a good video.

Edwards jump is an insane record. The 4x400M Men's record is also unbelievable and IMO unreachable. Had 3 of the best 400M runners of all time in it. Of course, Sotomayor's record just looks ridiculous.

Naim is just incredible what a weight lifter

Good to see a Brit in there with Jonathan Edwards. Chap on the pole vault cleared by another foot. 🇬🇧🥇🏃🥇🇬🇧

It's wild what the human body is capable of!

There is something about Bob Beamons record jump that is out of this world (at the time).

Isinbayeva was absolutely stunning , couldnt keep my eyes off her .

I was missing the 200 meters in 19:32 by Michael Johnson. Yes, right now that record is beaten. But so are some of the shown soccer speed records.

Super video, moc děkuji ❤❤❤

Great

No thumbnail timestamp = No time wasted 😂😂

Extraordinario Usain Super velocista!!!

2:09 she looks a lot like my PE teacher from my old school. Also she is polish so from my country and I think she mentioned about being a sportswoman before being a teacher. And it was about this throwing thing.

266 Km/h speed for that kick was not true, dislike for it.

You had me at the thumbnail.

How is a person not going to like this video full of super people. Incredible!

Where is Wade van Niekerk's 400m world record?? Very cool though!

its a shame you did not include Usain Bolt's 200 meter world record. in my eyes, just as impressive as his 9.58.

Hami's freekick even faster than many freekicks in slow motion

You are missing Lewandowskis 5 goals in 9 Minutes.

7:45 Usain Bolt thinking EZ

Naim is, and will always be, the powerlifter of all time. Any other man who cleans and presses 3X his weight, has my respect, but he still is far behind.

Unbelievable!

This thumbnail made a lot of viewers come

Nic e video, but would've been even better if we could see the years of every record.

me senti muy feliz por ellos se lo tienen merecido por su esfuerzo :D

Some great records here but not to feature a single one of Adam Peaty’s is a travesty! What that man has achieved in breaststroke is mind blowing

How would you miss out on the only man who have run a marathon race in under 2 hours, Eliud Kipchoge who finished a marathon race in 1 hour 59 minutes 40 seconds at the Ineos challenge in 2019, breaking his own record of 2:01:39 at the Berlin Marathon in 2018.

There's no need to include football goal speed, Olympic dont count that for medal.

Amazing

^^ imagine that you drive in your car at 200kph and a ball overtakes you with 266kph

I was in Vikersund when Stefan Kraft jumped 253,5m!

I know Mike Powell has the long jump world record now, but the clip should have been Bob Beamon, that really was one of the greatest world records ever! At the time the long jump world record was a bit under 27 1/2 feet. Bob Beamon was already looking like he could break it if he got a jump right and crazy people were suggesting that he might even challenge 28ft some day. He took his first jump in the Olympic final and recorded 29 feet 2 inches, an Olympic record that still stands 50 years later and is the oldest Olympic athletics record still unbroken.

All of these great athletic feats, + some people kicking a ball fast?

I feel like those soccer goals don't belong in this video..however the goalkeeper's goal was epic 👌

5:48 - "266km/h soccer kick" - ah, no. The fastest kick is 131 mph (or 210.8 kkph).

Niam 190kg at body weight of 60kg. 3x body weight plus 10kg

You forgot Hicham El guerrouj on 1500m, not beaten yet since 1998....3min26

The records for the fastest soccer shots are so ridicolus and far away from the real velocity...

damn the thumbnail got me again!

Eliud kipchoge 2 hour sub marathon, one of the greatest feat in human fitness and sport history.

I think we all know why we clicked on this video 😉

powell was the most emotionnal of all, because it was so close with Carl Lewis

Great moments! But, where are the dates???

I miss full stadiums

WOW!

@5:00 I remember watching this live. It was a huge deal because Pocket Hercules was from Bulgaria which was under the control of the USSR at the time. He defected to Turkey at the last possible moment, and then lifted over four times his bodyweight to win the gold and the world record. USSR was piiiisssssed.

Lukas Podolski killed that gollie

4:59 ❤

Be good to know what the times were that they broke and showing a 182kph kick in slow motion, jeez!

Whats with all the Soccer/Football stuff? you cant reliably get an accurate reading on the ball speed and only the fastest kick should be shown not 4 or 5 slower ones.

Please show some of the worst world records as well.

🔝

I closely observed the thumbnail... 😂

Hami Mandirali breaking the sound barrier lol

That thumbnail... Make my nail sharp

Missed the biggest one of all.. Secretariat's win in the 1973 Belmont. That is a record that will NEVER be beaten! The only record here that MAY not be beaten over the next 50 years is Bolt's in the 100 meter. His record is now 49 years old and no horse has come within 10 lengths since. He would have beaten this year's winner by 20+ lengths! THAT"S how NASTY Secretariat was! And btw the jockey that rode him that's all we was.. a "passenger" (by his own admittance).

Steven Reid's shot, I remember watching that match, makes me proud as an Irish man to see us represented here..

Why didn't you cover men's 400m race, 1,500m race, women's 100, 200 and 400m hurdles? Or men's discus and hammer?

This would be better if it showed the old world record stat first

Men love world records

Katinka Hosszu, 400 m individual medley 4:26.36 :P

Video: GREATEST WORLD RECORDS IN SPORT HISTORY Me: Then why are there four soccer records that are all the same category of speed??

To the average income earner ,restriction in Florida and some states should not limit our strive to meet ends need and and carter for our daily expenses .

hareket halindeki topa gelişine vuran futbolcular da hızlıydı gayet ama Hami Mandıralı duran topa 266 km hızla vurmuş. saygı duruşu

what a little man doin. the best thing i've seen
