This Amazing Trick Basketball Shot Must Be Seen To Be Believed

by Joe Levine | 5:51 pm, January 19th, 2013

There is a new world record for world’s highest basketball shot. This one has to be seen to be believed.

The people responsible are part of a Finnish group called How Amazing Shots. The shot itself takes place from Olympic Tower at Olympic Stadium in Helsinki, Finland. If it actually is real (I have my doubts that this is possible), the official measurement is 238.5 feet, almost 80 yards.

Okay, enough reading about it. Watch the video and you be the judge as to whether or not this is legit:

Unreal.

Definitely fake. Ball disappears at the 0:26 mark. Nice try Helsinki.

Dan Levy I ask bc replay shows he was out & I can't find any mention of it. If this was the last out of a perfect game, we'd demand the ump be killed

Dan Levy Hey if anyone has a recap of Trout's cycle where they mention he was out on the single, can someone send me a link? Thanks.

Buster Olney At his current pace, Mike Trout will finish this season with 191 hits, 83 walks, 93 extra-base hits, 112 runs, 121 RBI and 32 stolen bases.

Adam Schefter Who's got it better than 49ers HC Jim Harbaugh? Nobody! Harbaugh will drive the pace car at Saturday's Indy 500.

Dan Levy This is worth watching today. http://t.co/QBTaq3SqOz via @PatGallen_975 & @kacieFox29
