One of track and field's greatest athletes also has one of the greatest stories.

Born as the son of javelin-throwing parents, Jan Železný was practically destined to be a star of this challenging athletic discipline. From the Olympic Games, to the World Championships, to the highest marks ever recorded in this event, Železný has forever cemented his legacy as quite possibly the greatest javelin thrower to ever live.

Thanks for watching.

    He use his whip technique but never dislocated his shoulder means that his form is just literally perfect because if your form is slightly of, your shoulder would certainly popped out with that much force.
  • 19:10 You didnt mention it but even though he retired at the age of 40 he finished 3rd at his last WCH in Göteborg and I will add just one comparison - Zelezny threw over 90m 52 times, everyone else in the history combined together threw over 90m 32 times. That's just pure greatness !
  • I was a Decathlete training in Ostrava, Czech Republic in 2000-2001 and I remember we couldn’t do our warm up laps around the 400m track when Železny was throwing because apparently he actually overthrew the sector and stuck a Javelin in the surface of the track, well over 100m. It was unreal to watch him practice.
  • Zelesny has to be the greatest of all time due to the fact he threw with every different instruments in the sports history. They kept changing the javelin on him, and he still smashed world records and what they thought was humanly possible. This guy is a legitimate goat.

    I don't think many other athletes have had to deal with the amount of nonsense this guy did. They literally erased his world records by changing the game, and he kept setting new ones with the new instrument.

    Zelezny retired in 2006 and started coaching. I heard in 2008 during a winter training camp he got frustrated at the athletes he was coaching and threw a javelin over 85 meters as an example how it is done. What a legend.
  • Zelezny in Czech language means “made of iron”. Fits perfectly.
  • I never thought I would watch a 20 minute video on a single javelin throwing champion lol was pretty interesting
  • @feykro222
    Fun fact: Jan Zelezny trained Barbora Spotakova and she also has WR in javelin since 2008
  • @Elendrian
    Audience: "Zelezny's competing? Yeah I'll take a seat behind the competitors please."
  • Me at the beginning: "Javelin, I've heard of it..."
    Me at the end: "Zelezny is the all time greatest and I'll fight any fool who says otherwise "

    As a Czech person I highly appreciate how well you learned to pronounce his name. ❤️
  • This is an incredible testament to the longevity of determination that this extraordinary man possessed.
  • When they change the rules on an individual not once but twice because he is so much better than anyone else, and he still dominates that's greatness.
  • Met him at our local track when I was a kid, he was promoting athletics throwing events for schools. He did a few throws of at least 80m, I got his autograph on my t-shirt. Amazing
  • That man was a phenom...and he was little bit small in comparison to the other Athletes. It's more than brute strength in Javelin. Jan is the G.O.A.T forever and ever
  • This world record is insane. It has 1365 points according to world athletics, which is the highest of any male WRs. That is equivalent to running the 100m in 9.55 sec!!!
  • How he never hyperextended a knee or threw out his shoulder is just incredible.
  • Let me point out the mythical significance of being able to throw over 90m ONCE in your career.. Zelezny did it every year for a decade.
  • Salute to Zelezny, Czech 🇨🇿. From India 🇮🇳
