Gotta crowd source some information. The quest to find the highest elevation field that also has enough flat ground around it to get out to 550. There's gotta be one out there in CO even if the elevation is a little less. A year from today you get it together again or maybe even over the winter and you can get a pro out there. Sim talks to Bauer and maybe he can help bring in a ringer in the middle of his off season not worried about messing up his mechanics. You fire up a gofundme for this specific video and the ball budget will get handled. This video was awesome.

@@Electronic424 Mark McGwire's monster home run on May 16, 1998, probably didn't travel 545 feet, as initially estimated. ESPN's Home Run Tracker docked his true distance down to 487. It was one of five home runs Baseball Almanac listed as going at least 500 feet in 1998's record-setting season. this is a snippet of an article that was released about a week after that hit... It didn't go anywhere near that distance. My mistake, I misspoke but rather than edit it, Ill own it, It was actually released about 1 week AFTER THE SEASON ENDED, not 1 week after the game. It was basically a story recapping the major events of the 98 season. But at the end of the day, we can all speculate as home runs (according the mlb) were all purely estimations until the installation of most exit velocity tracking equipment and radar equipment were intergraded into parks i.e. stat cast, that didn't happen until the 2014 offseason for the 2015 season so the mlb considers any hits hit before that, purely estimations and not wholly reliable. I mean think about it, if say the babe hits a bomb, its purely publicity to say he hit over 500 feet... even if they think it went a lot less distance, it wasn't uncommon for home stadiums to "pump up" hr distances, purely for propaganda purpose..... think about it, is it news worthy if the babe hits a hr 350 ft? hell no, it is if he hit it 500 feet though, that'll be in every paper in the country, new fans, new merch sales... and so on. all purely speculation, a lot of guessing, little bit of kick the tape measure 20 feet that way.... and mostly propaganda prior to 2015 season when the MLB considered all HR distance to be 100 percent verified (due to stat cast tracking)

I think if you guys went to Silverton Colorado you could break this record with some favorable wind conditions. The advantage that you would have is that beyond the field it’s a slight decline instead of an incline. Silverton is also about the same elevation as well.

I'm working on it will. I'll make it happen lol As for distance, hitting into the wind killed your distance by around 40 feet depending on how strong the gust is. It looked around 10mph at times. Also, elevation killed another 20 feet for y'all. Put it together and you might've gotten to 600 with wind going out. Elevation and atmospheric pressure both affect distance. If it was hailing, must've been cold, around 60 right? Usually the higher the temperature, the better the barrel flex. You had all the factors working against you and you still hit only 50 ft short of the record? Major props to you and a hell of an attempt. That slowpitch guy is an absolute slugger! I always have major respect for slowpitch guys because they are all so friggin strong.

Hey man, love all the different kicks you wear in the your videos! Where are you metal cleats? You gotta pull those out too!

Well, Ruth’s 574ft HR was in the 1920’s @ Navin Field, later renamed Tiger Stadium. That was before the renovations which made it the Tiger Stadium we all know. Back then the outer fence line ran almost identical to the road and intersection you see pictured @ 2:45 . The stadium had these dimensions because it actually followed the road outside of the stadium. The ball he hit cleared CF which was approximately 467ft. at the time, cleared any bleachers and the outer stadium wall and landed in the middle of the intersection. This is not a matter of opinion, tens of thousands were in attendance and the exact landing spot was clearly witnessed. As in the above picture, that’s roughly 575ft. We’re not talking about a normal man, this was Babe Ruth. His name alone is legendary to this day, let alone his actual records and feats. He’s a once in a lifetime talent regardless of his build, look at John Daly for example. He was a strong man with a huge bat. He defied what people thought was possible. That’s why he’s Babe Ruth. Once in a while you get these rare specimens, Wilt, Lebron, Jordan, Secretariat, Nolan Ryan etc.

I know this was expensive but we’d all love to see a retake of this with (fingers crossed) the wind helping y’all

I'd say more ball velocity is needed from the pitcher in order for the ball to get passed the 535 range. Seems a little ragtag though with the facility your using. There's gotta be a better place to measure where you don't have houses and vehicles nearby and you can measure without estimates. But, it was fun to watch.

I thought Brad Jones would have a good shot at breaking the record. I've played competitive slow pitch for a while and I've been familiar with him for a couple years now. Transitioning from baseball to softball you learn to chop the ball more than an uppercut to create backspin so the ball carries a lot more. Plus using the overhand clasp grip helps generate tremendous bat speed, evident from his velo's. The dude is a tank with tremendous hitting capability so the natural god given talent is definitely there for him. Awesome video everyone hit some massive bombs!

While no doubt Babe Ruth often swung a heavier hickory bat, they were also much more balanced and counter weighted with larger handles than today. A 50oz bat from the early 1900’s actual swing weight is probably not all that different than a modern 33oz bat. Also, velocity of the pitch doesn’t have as much bearing on the distance of the ball as we (including myself) once thought.
