Harlem Globetrotter Corey Law Breaks Guinness World Record For Longest Backward Shot

Officially The Longest Backward Shot EVER

Try this in a game of horse.

On Wednesday, Corey "Thunder" Law of the Harlem Globetrotters shattered the Guinness World Record for the longest backward basketball shot.

Law's underhand, one-hand heave traveled 82 feet, 2 inches into the net at US Airways Center in Phoenix to surpass the previous mark by 10 feet, a Guinness official confirms in the video above.

Law already held the Guinness World Record for the longest basketball shot, with a make of 109 feet, 9 inches. He accomplished the feat last year in the same arena on Guinness World Records Day.

Can't wait to see what he'll do for an encore.
