The trick shot displayed in the clip above has been captured on camera in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

According to the video description, the ball was thrown from the Euromast tower, the observation deck of which is located at an altitude of 98 meters (321.5 feet).

Guinness World Records is yet to confirm that this is an official record, but the team have brought a local official along to witness the shot.

Apparently, it took 62 attempts to get it right. This clip was posted by YouTube user whoisjimmy and the trick shot was pulled off by the “How Ridiculous” group.
