Its weird how Germany is always surrounding Poland

Piotr Małachowski sold his silver medal to help sick child, that's a hero 💗

[joejoematic]

one of the biggest stories of this olympics. harting takes the gold 4 years after his brother who was injured this time.

[NathanHeaver]

dont mess with these guys even if you run they can still hit you

[millacabral]

It makes me oddly happy that the discus throw is still a thing

[mcallister]

Wow the German athletes look different to the usual heavyset hulks in that discipline.

[Mariner]

Christoph Harting is the younger brother of Robert Harting, the previous winner in 2012!

[ted]

That is the coolest way to throw something.

[simonheidt]

must be disappointing for everytime he was behind robert harting in big competitions. then, robert harting didnt make the final and malachowski thought, now he has the chance to take gold. but his brother, christoph harting came and get away with gold :DDD man, poor guy :DD

Great Germany, Great friends. Love from India.

It’s such a German thing to be good at discus throwing. That nutty Krauts crack me up

[ChristianJuarez]

I find it so cool that us humans with technology and action sports still find entertainment and interests from such simple games like throwing a frisbee and throwing a big rock

i loved those standings 1st GER 2nd POL 3rd GER its like 1942 all over again xD

[FernandoGarcia-nzel]

wow love those compression shorts Germany. ; )

These veterans are on their way out. Kanter came the closest to the WR since Alekna, Malachowski's 71+ was not bad either. This sport desperately needs a new talent who would start flirting with the records again...
Christoph Harting's 5 years younger than his brother so let's hope he finds a good formula.

[KingRat]

imagine playing Ultimate Frisbee against these guys

[farhanislam]

If I were there I spined like Tom and Jerry and digged in earth 😂😂😂😂

[visakasview]

I don't know why they call it as discus when everybody does solo

[anneeggebrecht]

can you post a full replay of this, not just the highlights?

Feedback: The competition was NOT between Kanter and Piotr, Kanter was 34th on the world ranking this year, so he probably had the lowest SB of ALL throwers here. Harting was 2nd on the world ranking from this year so it was already between Piotr and Harting...
