Eventually someone will beat Bolt's record. There are enough ways to improve sprinting. But there is a limit to optimizing pitch mechanics, with one problem being the body/elbow's limit.

@@MissKorea-oy9ip It really just sounds like you have no idea what you’re talking about🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️ You claim sprinting doesn’t have a physical limitation on the body like there is with pitching but that’s simply not the truth. In fact, Sprinters experience a higher rate of injury than pitchers. Although it is increasingly more common for pitchers to get hurt from pitching, it is in fact even MORE common for sprinters to get injured statistically speaking. I don’t know why you think generating an immense otherworldly amount of explosiveness in the fibers of your legs is somehow easy to do but it’s really not. The plateau of sprint speeds will reach a similar standstill than those of pitching speeds unlike what you may believe. Sure, someone is going to eventually beat Usain Bolt. But guess what, someone will eventually throw 106 mph. The truth is that the improvement will converge so marginally that it’ll eventually become a battle of minutiae.

@@Eggy79 it was calculated using physics man. They used to measure a pitches speed from a different spot. So when they changed where the ball was initially being clocked to where they measure the speed now, they had Nolan throwing at about 110. Does that make sense? Using time, distance, velocity and changing the measuring points to modern.

Chapman is so hittable.

If you try to throw something that hard that fast you will dislocate your shoulder

that one baki character breakinf every bone in their body to do a whip attack:

Fast•Pitch Underhand Pitchers have broken 120 mph for awhile now.

Sandy Koufax was the only pitcher, ever, who had to be taught how to pitch below 100 MPH. .

Dam! Chapman still holds the record, barely but it's still his crown.

It's a gift from God a very small percentage of population can throw 90 mile an hour and more

Deku be like nuh uh ill just use 1forall mate

100 mph is fast enough 😭

Me watching this after watching a guy on KZread throw 107mph like it was no problem.

Conclusion: pitchers can’t throw 120 MPH because they can’t.

Wouldn't there be more air resistance the faster the speed.

Have you ever wondered why you can't breathe all the air in the world?

My arm is fried. At 65 I can't even throw 20 mph any more. I used to throw like Nolan ryan for 40 years . Been trhowing since i could walk ,now I'm 65 and am In Pain the last 30 years

Hold my beer..

It was actually Nolan Ryan who’s adjusted fastball was 109

Nolan Ryan has the fastest pitch ever at around 108. The ball was measured at a different location than it is today and when adjusted for the change the pitch would have gone from like 101 to 108.

Back in the day most pitchers threw 85-90 mph. That increased to 90-95 mph in the 90’s. Today’s pitchers consistently throw 95-100 mph. I predict within the next ten years you’ll have pitchers consistently throwing 100-110 mph plus. It’s inevitable. Athletes get bigger and stronger every generation.

I have heard that the theoretical maximum upper limit is 107 to 107.5 MPH. I Do not know if that is actually attainable, but if there ever is a Pitcher that can throw a pitch that fast AND throw it for strikes, he will make ALL of the money. All of it. As amazing as MLB Hitters are, and I am in awe of them every game I see, hitting a 107.5 MPH pitch is nearly impossible.

You need strong legs too

No, it's documented, in 2 documentaries, Nolan Ryan, in a full game, threw a pitch at 106.

Have you ever wondered why babies can’t walk when their born

This is true but someone can probably throw a ball at higher speeds but not control it as a pitcher needs to do.

Nolan Ryan threw over 100mph at the age of 45...he's all time strikeout King and he would throw at your chin at that speed

You need to watch the documentary "fastball"... make a compelling case that nolan ryan threw around 108mph. Radar guns at the time gauged speed crossing the plate,.now they gauge speed out of the hand... 101mph crossing plate is around 108mph out of the hand... insane

Miller has a chance to break it imo more than Skenes. He has insanely good mechanics

Oh, b.s! Limitations with weight of ball, size & diameter, strings, & then mechanics. A 21 year old won't have an issue unless the trainers changed or added the way he throws different type of pitches. U learn to throw a ball as a kid & have developed a routine that your arm & shoulder are used to.

The 97 World Series, a 106 mile an hour pitch was made.

Dude, shoulder injuries are scary especially since they arnt as common as elbow injuries so they are less studied. Throwing that hard even with ought perfect mechanics once can end your career in a single pitch

So why can’t a basketball player dunk from half court? Riddle me that😏

Chap threw heat

Someone should see how fast Victor Wembanyama can pitch a baseball. Bolts time is due to him being able to pump his legs as fast as the fastest guy except his legs are longer so he travels further every rep. That and maintaining form/strength thru the entire race. Wembanyama's longer arm means his hand in a throwing motion is capable of more speed for a equal strength/technique throw. Faster hand speed equals faster pitch. Obviously he isn't going to just pick up a baseball and throw ver fast mph but the theory is sound.

perfect song

Have you ever wondered why your own farts smell pretty good?

Nolan Ryan threw at possibly 108 mph once, but the radar technology of the time sucked.

I'm sorry, but Nolan Ryan throws the fastest pitch. The equipment they were using in those days is obsolete compare to current technology. And if you watch that man, he pitched until he was in his 40's. And to make it more incredible, when he pitched for the Angels, Ryan pitch into extra innings ending at 235 pitches. This is BEFORE the pitch counts was implemented. Reggie Jackson once said: "Batters like fastball like kids like ice cream, but you don't want them to shove it down by the gallon"

It’s also because of what this narrator says”pitching over hand.” It does hurt your arm. Pitching underhand is more natural. There is less outward motion moving underhand. I looked for it, but I swear I read in Guinness book as an asterisk that the fastest baseball thrown was 108 underhand. That was 25+ years ago but the reason they didn’t include it because they only did overhand. This isn’t a Mandela thing and makes perfect sense that a human could do it.

Ben Joyce holds the record now for fastest pitch

Tennis serves can get up to 160 mph, far more impressive and difficult to hit back compared to hitting a baseball.

Im convinced we re st the top threshold of fastball velocity. Besides, its ruining baseball. Pitchers OWN baseball right now

Did you ever wonder why hot wings are so delicious

When I throw fast all the blood rushes to my hand. I don’t understand how pitchers do it.

Nolan Ryan has the record at 106

Pretty sure a Japanese guy not in game has clocked at 107 more than once.

120??? Are you kidding me? Cause we’re not superheroes mate lol

being able to throw at the speed we can, even in the 50-70 mph range for an untrained adult, is an evolutionary gift in itself

Have you ever wondered why people can't outrun automobiles?

Imagine if bro spikes it 💀

There is a limit with the mechanics and the body the limit is determined by size but not limited

Genetics, Tallent and Tenacity always proves this kinda thing wrong

Missed call from Jordan Hicks

Why can’t baseball players pitch 120? “Because they can’t”

Those limits can be broken. Its just really a safe guard and people use roids to push through these safe guards at their detriment.

Can't run a 4 min mile either

A 7 footer might oneday be able to do so

Idgaf if I hurt my arm it would be sick af to throw 120

I bet you can't pitch 120😅

If you throw over 105 you aren’t gonna last long.

Rookie Paul Skenes could throw 105-108 at 6ft 5" but doesn't need to. So he just throws 100 like he is falling outta bed.🙄

Fastest pitch is actually 107 by Nolan Ryan.

not all pitchers throw as hard as they can.
