Harlem Globetrotter breaks Guinness world record for longest basketball shot
The U.S. exhibition basketball team, Harlem Globetrotters's rookie Thunder Law has smashed the official Guinness World Record for the longest basketball shot.
Law stood a few rows back into the seats and drained a hoop from 109 feet, 9 inches at U.S. Airways Center in Phoenix, the Washington Times reports.
He said it seemed nearly impossible as he had never tried a shot from that distance before.
The old record was 104 feet, 7 inches, which was set in February 2011, the report added.
