"After about 175 attempts, Sellers, a 17-year-old senior at Pinson Valley High, reached his target."
"The boys arrived at 9 a.m. and had a two-hour limit set by Vulcan Park. Sellers made the shot at 10:50 a.m., said Jill Stal naker, the group's manager. "

They must've had fun carrying all those basketballs back to the top.

I wish I made a career out of shooting basketballs from long distances...
oh wait, no I don't.
7king7kingAug 7, 2010
not anyone. some people can't even throw the basketball that far.
lantzaAug 7, 2010
he didn't even throw it that hard
s8m3gAug 7, 2010
well yeah, I guess if you want to get more specific. Anyone who can throw a basketball that far can make that shot with enough attempts.

Did it better, and longer. Not quite as high, but the trajectory was crazier, so a better shot IMO.

I think this is the first time my son had found something before it made it to the digg front page. If only i had the babymans email, could have gotten it up there sooner. The teen network through facebook had this at least last week.

"good,but next time you could try to slam dunk from there"

It's impressive on one level but sorry. Basketball isn't played on a hill. With these you have aim, but don't need strength to move it far since gravity is doing it. I'd like to see the farthest shot from ground level, that would be really impressive.

Looks fairly comparable to a full court shot as far as how "far" it goes.

This is not a team based basketball, it's a street basketball 1 on 1 challenge.
