New Delhi: It was 1984 when the German legend Uwe Hohn threw a distance of 104.80 meters during the Athletics Competition Olympic day in Berlin.
With this magnificent throw, Hohn has destroyed a world record at 99.72m, which was determined by Tom Petranoff from the US in 1983.
Hohn still remains the only man who throws the javelin more than 100m.
And the note, the experts said, would never be damaged.
This is how Hohn’s notes become ‘eternal’.
Hohn’s record destroys the administrator to make the administrator sit and realize that they have to do something to shorten the distance thrown by Javelin by the male thrower.
As a result of this, Javelin man was redesigned in 1986, so the center of gravity was moved forward 4 cm (1,5748 inches).
The move was mainly taken because the male thrower was in danger of crossing the space available for the javelin throw at the stadium and entered the track room, thus endangering athletes and other officials.

What this also eliminates a flat and ambiguous landing that is often a big headache for officials who measure the distance in the field.
Javelin, because of his previous length, center of gravity, etc., will often not sink to the ground after landing.
With the redesigned Javelin, the nose starts to fall early and is steeper, therefore reduces the distance thrown by almost 10%.
As a result of this redesign has a new record that must be registered since then, with re-redesigned Javelin.
The Hohn monster record of 104.80 million became lasting.
