According to the video on Twitter, a fun event was held in between a basketball match at the home court of Trail Blazers. The winner of the event was offered $50,000 for the purchase of a new house. The task was to make a putt from one baseline to the other. Generally, the distance from one baseline to the other on an indoor court is 94 feet.

While the 94-footer itself is an almost impossible putt, it is not the longest the golf world has ever seen.

The unbelievable putt that made into the Guinness Book of World Records

Brett Issac Stanford, the co-host of the YouTube channel ‘How Ridiculous,’ has made a 395-feet putt to get into the Guinness World Records. The YouTube influencers set the event to make another record to their name, as they usually do on their channel. In the above video, the viewers can see how Stanford broke the previous record of 114m with his 120m long putt.
