‘How Ridiculous’ has tried and been successful in breaking many Guinness World Records. However, the most unbelievable out of all has to be when Brett broke the record for the longest golf putt ever made. 

Brett Stanford bagged the Guinness World Record of the longest golf putt ever made!

The Aussie men were not that confident when they arrived at the Walter Golf Course of Western Australia. Although they had set their minds on breaking the world record, they weren’t sure if they would be able to accomplish it or not.

That is why when they gave the introduction to the video, they said, “If you are seeing this intro, it means something amazing’s about to happen!”  

Usually, on ‘How Ridiculous,’ they do tricks and challenges with basketball. However, they tried something different and chose golf to be their next challenge this time. The target was to break the record of the longest putt ever made in the history of golf, which was 114m.

His friends eagerly waited near the hole when Brett made the putt from a 120m distance. While the ball was nearing the hole, Scott shouted at the ball, “GET IN, GET IN, GET IN!!!” The Aussies went crazy as the ball went straight in because they knew it was almost impossible to do so.

Putting is the hardest part of golf. It was Craig Barlow, who had made the longest putt in the PGA Tour history. His record was 111’5″ and was made at the Warwick Hills golf course in 2008. The longest putt ever made by Tiger Woods was 91’7″ in 2014. 

Considering even the professionals were not close enough to Brett’s record, it is unlikely any other golfer would be able to break it. What do you think of the record? Do you think it is possible? Let us know!
