The fact that you guys scored the sickest basketball shot of all time at the same time as telling the worst joke of all time makes it so much more legendary.
I had hope that my comment would achieve such perfection and then I saw yours.... lesson learned next time I will do better
The mission impossible become possible because lucky 😂
We’ll Pin Ya🤙🏼
That young padawan blessed the ball to save us from any more terrible jokes 🤣
There were so many frames during the stupidest joke. Doubt it happened. Good editing.
Luca is a champ! Awesome idea for you lads to sign the ball for him and give it to him ❤️
Right!?! So sweet!
Bruh that kid doesn’t know it but that ball will mean a lot to him in the future
Luca the real mvp
ikr? Amen...and it's not even Sunday
That was one cute helper, nice to give him the ball guys 😍
Signing and giving that ball to the kid, what a class act. You guys are awesome.
No-look is admittedly different than blindfolded. Brett even commented he was able to aim at something behind him as a consistent set-up for a throw. That being said, it's surprising how accurate you guys have gotten at such distances over the years. A truly impressive shot.
I feel like backwards is more iconic and has more style point than blindfolded though
i feel like at this point, looking wouldnt give much advantage anyway
Luca will be an absolute legend one day and he will look back on that ball and realize it’s importance. Well done, guys, what a viddy!
@@lucaswestpfahl7076 I just had a stroke reading that, what does charging course mean and why do you randomly double space?
@@benthebuilder6934 I assume he ment "changing" but still stupid 🤔
@@benthebuilder6934 yeah I have no idea either.
@@lucaswestpfahl7076 what sort of crack you been smoking?
@@benthebuilder6934 I think they meant "changing course", but I still have no Idea what the second part is about XD
Hearing those people speak Romanian was awesome. They actually said “imagine if Luca gives him the ball and that’s the one going in” and a couple balls later it did. 😂
Little dude gets to start his basketball career with one of the greatest assists ever.
I think you mean Romansh
@@xKiLLzZx1 nope. Romanian.
@@jSergiu so they were from Romania?
Knowing this makes it even better thank you!
13:11 Best one "dropped" ever! 😂🤣
My boys and I have been binge watching your channel here for the last few months. You guys have officially taught my two year old how to play Rock Paper Scissors, and my five year old thinks every t-Rex is Rexy. He’s always very concerned when Rexy get smooshed.
lol
"The common man stops trying now. And that's where we're different." Now THAT'S the How Ridiculous I know!
Deep quote from Gaunson 💯
Times like these, your videos help lift our spirits.
Stay safe, guys.
jeez whats the issue?
R u ok?
Very funny vid guys!! Your improvisational comedy bits make your vids GOLD!!
Im just loving the mood of this video 😂.
It was an absolute vibe the whole way through 🔥🔥
Started binge watching you guys when I had knee surgery 2 years ago and haven’t stopped. Love all your videos guys!
I'd say you have a pretty good case for malpractice. There is NO WAY any knee surgery should take that long.
@@ronjones-6977 he doesnt mean it took 2 years, he means that when he watched around his knee surgery and hasn't stopped :/
And with that, Luca's fate is sealed: he's gonna be the next generation for this channel
Lucas in the worldrecord for the assist to the biggest basketball shot in the world
THE CHANNEL IS GOING TI BE ROMANIAN LETS GOOO ❤️
@@dariusmicluta4415 chill out...
Probably one of the best videos from you guys. Very funny and just awesome. Luca also just an absolute Alpha. And the fact that I live here in Switzerland makes it even better.
Keep it up guys!
I watch y'alls videos and i leave a 👍 on almost all of em... I'm leaving 1 for the little guy who hanned u the winning ball and the genuine generosity I see in ur channel..... 👍👍👍👍
So awesome that Luca and fam were helping for the epic bucket! Beauty!
Please never stop doing what you guys do for as long as you can! I get so stressed out and frankly depressed watching the news and thinking about all the horrible things in this world, and then I watch you videos and it just completely redeems my faith in humanity. You guys are so wholesome and entertaining and funny. I feel like I know you and that I’ve in a small way welcomed you into my life and I’m just so thankful that the stars aligned to allow you all to make these videos and share them with the world. Thank you. 😊👍🏼
I had to stop watching the news. They bombard me with negative things that I'm supposed to worry about and have opinions about, even though most of it doesn't even affect me and I can't affect whatever is happening. I'm happier now that I limit the negative stuff thatI take in
I'd add a thumbs up here to agree but it's at 44 👍 exactly and I can't bring myself to mess that up
Just stop watching and focus on what you want to do. Unless you act, it will only make you feel worse.
There’s 7 billion people on earth and you’re seeing .00000000000000000000001% of chaos. It’s not common. Most people live peaceful lives.
@theaberrantdon the news is also filled with propaganda so for your own mental health it'd wayy better to stop watching it. 😅
Just finding your channel and loving it. I love the Aussie accents and how your intonations rise when you're excited. You have great vocabularies and perfect diction. Oh yeah, your stunts are entertaining too. I love when Gaunson gets philosophical.
Loved you gave the kid an Autographed ball. THE BALL! You guys are the purest entertainment out there, I am surprised you don't have your own TV show.
it's been quite a while where it was a constant pain from laughter watching your videos.. this was again one of them, i love the humor in these kind of videos more than the others.
the one over the years where i laughed the most, i sometimes still watch it, is the one with the dam where you play golf with footbals and a pool, where the closest shots mis, and the fence gets hit, just like in this viddie
Which video is that? I'd love to watch it
@@RWMunro tried linking it to you but the filter removes it even though its to this very own channel lol., it was called "SOCCER GOLF from 165m DAM!"
@@JakeKoenig ok
Congratulations on the hoop! Love your videos. Are we going to see a return to the tower for some smashage soon? I would also love to see Herron struggle in a golf event from the damn. I laughed so hard when Gaunson hit the rail with the BBall. It reminded me of Herron’s kick into the rail. 😂 That was funny. Keep up the good work.
Let's just take a moment to pay respects to the people who think this is fake. This is legit an accomplishment for these gentlemen to pull such a stunt, well done 🛐💕
Yeah I can't tell half the time if they truly think it's fake or just trolls ..funny how people just jump straight to"it's fake" without taking a second to learn what's going on
@@thecasualfly irs because from recordijg from the top so it looks slow
if it was fake they'd spend a lot less time doing it lol
@@zevo9314 how tf u know that, it could be first try if they're lucky
@@potato7777yea that’s how physics works my guy from angle fro my hat high and that far of a drop
Never a dull moment. My spirit is always lifted by watching these videos. I laugh so much!
Genuine group of guys. Luca will have a awesome story one day. Hopefully he will make a great basketball player or go on to make awesome trick shots like you guys
Hopefully Lucas’ family makes a clip of the last few minutes so he’ll have the context behind why his childhood basketball has 3 names scribbled on it that he’s never heard of
would love to hear Gaunsen's scientific calculations of how fast the ball was traveling when it went in
The spin of the earth × gravity÷ something=99.8kmh.
Basketballs have a terminal falling velocity of 48 mph or 77 kph.
hard enough to bend a rim
Damn!! I was thinking there was gonna be a part 2 to this vlog. Great job guys!! ForeTFor 4-life!!👍🏽👍🏽👊🏽🏀
What beautiful scenery!! Gosh that's a gorgeous location. Are you in the Alps or something? There is a solemn magesty about the mountains that just... you can't replicate in any other setting. I love hiking in the mountains, it's my favorite place to be. Just knowing how ancient they are, pushed up by tectonic forces over eons. So amazing. Oh and the stunts you guys pull off are fantastic too. LOL
Started watching a month ago..... I'v Watched EVERYTHING back to soccer balls hitting bowling pins and bottle flips onto IKEA... and 2 Rexy shirts later..... HOW GOOOOD!
PS: NEEEEED MORE RC CAR!
I don't know why, but the idea of standing on that bridge, pressed up against the railing while blindfolded is not something I'd love to do.
yeah everytime they throw something heavy or do a run up on their throw i get nervous lmao
IKR, I was getting vertigo for them, I think.
I think if I was blindfolded all the way up there, it'd actually be easier. But seeing the drop first, and *then* putting on a blindfold? No way. Nooooooo way.
Not sure I could even get close to the railing with my eyes open, tbh.
This took a wholesome turn at the end. I’m glad some “outsiders” got involved for once!!
I love all your videos... this was a particular fun one... wondering if you can get official world records with videos like this, or if you have to have officials present to in order for it to count. Also hoping not to offend any of you, but who was insisting Gaunson? Is that his wife? If so, he's so lucky. She has a lovely laugh and smile. She's just lovely all around... anyway... Love you guys, and Love what you guys do... I always binge watch all your vids... thank you for all the amazing things you do
Seems Rexy has a run for his mascot position! Great assist Luca!!
But you'd get in trouble if you strapped Luca to a bike and chucked him off the dam.
Can't be a real HR video without Derek crapping his pants 😂
How good, though, Brett! Good job!
One of your best videos ever? Loved it boys. Never change.
Just wanted to say this channel has gotten me through bein stuck in the hospital the videos always make me laugh ty!
You 3 have such chemistry, you all just bounce off each other it cracks us all up, it's so good to see 3 mates just having fun and good times. Reminds me of me and my 2 best mates, terrible trio we was, things changed for us, hope you guys stay at this and keep mates forever, you all rock 🤙
Love the entertainment value from the whistling to the bad jokes tot he farts (I mean come on....farts are funny). Also love that you guys show all the work you do to actually (and legit) nail the shot. Keep up the good work. Much respect from Ontario Canada.
OMG I CANT SAY HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR INERGY IN YIUR VIDOS IN ON POINT NO CAP
There definitely needs to be more "golf" played from the top of the dam. That was one of your best videos!
I am having a really bad day.
This was a great way to cheer up. How can I stay upset when I’m listening to your one liners and watching you all chuck basketballs off a dam with a blindfold on?!
Another one for the books!! Well done!
17:08 Never Have I ever thought that I’ll hear someone speaking Romanian in a HR video. The world is so small and amazing!!
Yeah.. I was like where I can hear my own language?
9:14 love that little bluey bit
You guys have inspired a new content creator in Switzerland and he doesn't even know it yet. That's awesome, boys.
Somehow I just knew that child was going to make it happen, super kind of you to give them the signed ball! In the future you can bet they'll see the video and it will be very special indeed! Well done on the shot and your kindness boys!
I love that the vibe of “just three guys hanging out” is starting to come back. Previous videos were full of short-cuts and less banter back and forth and seemed more “corporate”.
i totally agree, i find myself going back to their tower stunts a lot more than some of the newer stuff. i love watching them just hang out and be friends a lot more than the stunts most of the time. what they do is awesome, but who they are is way more important.
Good Times. Thanks for sharing!
5:20 🤣 I was not expecting that
Lol I couldn't believe it myself. He admired it, spoke about it like it was so cool and cute, and then just casually threw it to its death presumably. Although I'm not sure if it can fly or it being so small that it might not impact hard with the ground. But still, the carefree nature was both hilarious and also took me aback
Ihr seid großartig, macht weiter so!
Love these on location shots fellas! Can't wait for a tower comeback!
They're gonna need a bigger tower!
You can wait
@Don't Read My Profile Photo read deez nutz chump bot
Awesome job boys keep up the great work
Nothin' but net! Really wholesome stuff. Congrats guys! 👌
I like watching all the tries you guys do in the videos. You put in the hard work of throwing stuff off of higher stuff XD and it's fantastic.
Epic shot thanks for grinding it out in wet cold. Many blessings to you all!!!
The shot progression is wild 😂
It’s all about the Padawan handing you the lucky rock!!! What a nice gesture to give Him the signed ball!
It was so nice to see passerbys in this one, really added to the wholesome factor!
Bruh these guys are the only reason I watch TH-cam I love y’all keep it up and could you do how many pickles can stop a slingshot
That is actually a compliment. It is so good that people think it is fake.
True lmao
Nice boys! Another world reckie for the books! Love the channel and try to remember to like every vid I watch. God Bless🙏
One day I promise I will buy merch 🦖🦖🦖
I feel like I been waiting a lifetime for the another video lol I need my weekly fix of you guys to maintain happiness ❤️ x
That was so nice of all of you to sign and give that ball to the young assistant! Outstanding shot too, I thought you all would be out there for many days!
Luca might not yet be able to understand what happened or who you were but one day pretty sure this all will make sense... they were on holiday and besides not just having a beautiful landscape to watch they got to see you as well... and he took part in a special moment... thank you for sharing this moment with us and giving this lil. kid the ball... well deserved
Cheers to that! 🍺😎
It's been memorialized on the internet and *_no one_* can take that away from little Luca!
Truth be told, I actually remember some very brief moments from around that age... So _just maybe,_ he will, too 🤞😌🤞
It'll make seeing this video all the better! 🤘
(he even knew to kick the ball... I forsee football trick shots in his future! 😏)
For the people thinks it's fake, learn physics, and I'll try to explain the magnus effect.
Ball spinning into one direction either it goes the other way if you spin sideways,
Goes the direction it was spinning at if thrown vertically,
That was wholesome as hell, you guys have the best vibes and I wish more people were like you! Congrats on the shot lads 🤟 Luca’s gonna have an awesome time watching this one day
“welllll doooonnne” 15:19
Hey guys thank you for you channel my kids love watching you 3 drop all kinds of stuff thank you
I love watching you lads doing silly crazy stuff, Scott is a legend he always makes me laugh with silly dad jokes and he's science with gaunson, and fantastic to see little luca with a signed basketball you guys should put signed basketballs 🏀 for sale in merch.
Well done again boys for another great viddy,
10/10 🤣💖
I get really bad anxiety from heights and I freak out….just watching you guys sets it off big time…no way in hell I’d be anywhere near that dam lol
I don't even have a fear of heights, but how high and how much of a sheer drop it is, I feel like I'd be freaking out even with a 5-foot railing in front of me. So, I feel ya to a degree lol
Most people do. It’s called being normal lol
Literally every time the camera points downward when they throw it
Ya I def feel queasy when they pan down with the cammy 😵💫
The whole video is very funny. Well done!
What a cute little helper! He definitely helped on that one
13:10 definitely a world record there!!! 😱
My absolute favorite time of the week ❤️❤️❤️❤️
mine too! 🤟
I'm just a small fishing youtube channel but I totally enjoy your videos way more than my own. You guys rock.. I do have a suggestion for a video for you.. take ot or leave it. How about using the hammer and the blob bag to launch something.. put a ply wood at the end impact area of the hammer and that should make the force bigger
Just saw you guys on TMZ! Congrats!
13:11 - Please tell me Stanford checked. That did not sound good. Sounded like he drew mud on that one. 💩
That fart though 🤣 I'm dying 😆
I’ve been watching you guys for 5+ years and have watched every single episode to the end but I’ve never commented- WELL DONE BOIZ
That is so cool that y'all sign and gave him the ball. Nice job guys
"that fart was something else." 🤣
Yeah; not just a fart. Sounded like about halfway along it invited a friend nobody counted on, lol.
Love the throwback vid. Congrats boys. I’d like to make my standard plug for a Kevlar blob
It's not a throwback vid, they went back to the dam again
Throwback, literally 🤣
So freakin awesome!!! Great vid
That was badass!!!!
5:26 imagine being that bug... treated nicely by a giant then roughly chucked off
13:10 That's gonna itch when it dries.
Lmfao 🤣
did not expect the ending like this, loved it.
I freaking died during the whistle part lol. Cheers boys.
10:26 I actually hesitated to sip on the drink in my hand after that...
I don’t know why but when Gaunson pushed Herron away first at 16:20 it really makes you realize his soft side 😂 what a boy
This was such a solid video. Whatever the "brand" of How Ridiculous is, this video is it 100%.
The whistles got me hahahahaha then the giant long raspberry 😋 🤣
A two-year-old Luca just passed the ball to Stanford and he made it for him What a Champion.
Keep your head in the clouds boys! Y’all are definitely living your best life
Also great shot and Luca giving the ball that made it was epic.. I don't think that record will ever be broken.. not everyone has a luca
3:31 The moment of realization hahaha
18:37 Stanfords made a backwards shot after you dropped the worst joke in the world.
Gaunsen: Still better then what you dropped you animal!
That doesn't count you're not blindfolded
Still like it through, you guys are as funny as ever
All power to Derek's wife for patiently waiting for the guys to go through their shenanigans! Hope the visit back to the States after Switzerland was worth it!
Having seen more than just a few of their videos, I believe he really did make it.
Gents, probably one of the most wholesome things on the internet! We’ll done. Also, congrats for the backwards 165!
