You all forget just how naturally large Crouser is.
6'7" 320 pounds.
He comes from a long line of throwers. His Dad was big, and a top class athlete. All his family are throwers in some form.
Crouser is 2 inches taller than Randy Barnes and 30 pounds heavier.
He's a technician at the event.
He competes continually, with no fear of testing.
He's just a monster. We're lucky to be in this throwing era. The Shot Put competition is premier right now.
So no big guys have ever done the shot before?
