Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski set a world record this weekend because why wouldn’t he?
Gronk was at his alma mater the University of Arizona to act as honorary head coach for the Wildcats 2021 Spring Game, but before the annual event, he went ahead and made a Guinness world record setting catch. Off a 600 feet throw. From a helicopter.
“The highest altitude catch that’s ever been done in the world,” as coach Jedd Fisch put it.
Watch.
As for the spring game, Team Red, captained by Gronkowski, won the scrimmage 17-13 over Team Blue, which was captained by fellow alum and 13 season NFL linebacker Tedy Bruschi, currently senior advisor to Coach Fisch.
And just think Tom Brady didn’t even throw it!

Oh, and if you’ve forgotten about Guinness World Records over the years, don’t. It’s still a bonkers phenomenon.
