All times Wilt Chamberlain and Shaquille O'Neal met

Wilt Chamberlain met with Shaquille O'Neal on 2 different occasions in 1992. Once for a commercial promoting Shaq's shoes and another time when Shaq and Patrick Ewing matched up at Madison Square Garden. Listen as Bill Walton recalls why he feels Wilt Chamberlain's personality enabled the cooperation and collaboration of the former players for the commercial in the first place.

wilt's handshake was responsible for shaq missing so many free throws.

Wilt was MASSIVE. I wish he could've played in this era in his prime. Would've been amazing

[vincebautista]

That Handshake almost pulled out shaqs arm haha

[KryptoChronicutelite]

0:59 Wilt showed baby Shaq what a real mans handshake was.

[HereIsRick]

Shaq went for the "homie" handshake but Wilt quickly taught him how to shake hands like a man.

[eddiedelreal]

Old man Wilt rocking Shaqs whole soul with that handshake.

I thought the wilt stronger than Shaq stories were just stories, but after seeing wilt shaking shaqs hand and making shaq jerk forward followed by Shaq doing a double take in shock, I think it's safe to say those stories are true.

If Wilt Chamberlain played today he'd be a billionaire.

i wish someone ask Shaq about this handshake in an interview one day.

Shaq’s still recovering from that handshake

A few things jump out dramatically from this great clip: (1) Bill Russell really was undersized for the center position, and that his singular greatness was due to his athleticism and unrivaled game intelligence; (2) Wilt is the Big Man, the Goliath here -- just look at those thickly muscled shoulders going up into his neck! (3) Patrick Ewing is towered over by Wilt!; and (4) the handshake says it all! Thanks so much for sharing this gem of a video!

Wilton Norman Chameberlain. In my opinion the greatest basketball player to play at any level

[ahnoldshort]

Russell looks like a small forward compared to them lmao, Wilt was a monster of a man

[kaborong]

1:25 wilt was so strong.. look at Shaq's face when they shook hands 😂😂😂

[davehill]

I LOVED Wilt! I am so glad I got to see him several times in person and many times on TV. The most dominant player in the history of basketball.

[luissyquia]

Damn Shaq was startled by that handshake!

[liquidlight]

Goliath! Greatest NBA specimen of all time.

[jasonwaznak]

I bet shaq was thinking "DAMN HE'S STRONG"!!!

[ice_man]

Wilt was a special person the others were special basketball players.

[PatrickMHoey]
