Chapter 242 Breaking NBA Records

When the height of the bell was adjusted to 335 centimeters, Brother 183 Dunk failed to successfully touch the bell after two attempts and had to leave sadly.

What he wants to know most now is, where are the limits of these two people?

"There are only two of us left. How about just adding ten centimeters? Starting from 345 centimeters?"

Ling Zhenyu said to Li Ang with a smile.

Because the two of them are on the same team, the points have been fixed. The only thing that needs to be compared is the victory or defeat of the two of them, as well as the historical record of this event.

This kind of event happens every two years. In the last five-kilometer running competition, Li Ang had already greatly broken the historical results of the event, so this time Ling Zhenyu also wanted to challenge whether he could break the height record.

He had to admit that he lost to Li Ang in running, but touching height was his home field, so it was time to show off.

But Ling Zhenyu didn't expect that after listening to his suggestion, Li Ang just shook his head slightly, and then said:

"Just start from 350 centimeters and make it whole."

Ling Zhenyu swallowed. He had already inquired before the start of the competition. The historical record for this high-touch event was 355 centimeters, and his own test results generally fluctuated around 353 centimeters, depending on the current state.

As soon as Li Ang opened his mouth, he immediately wanted to adjust the bell to 350 centimeters. To be honest, he was under a lot of pressure. After all, this height was close to his limit.

"Okay, let's start from 3.5 meters."

I've already pretended to be cool before, so of course I can't be cowardly now.

When the height of the bell was adjusted to 3.5 meters, cheers of cheers could be heard from the crowd.

Most people actually have no idea about this height. Only those who have just participated in the height-touching competition know how terrifying this number is.

At the beginning, they could indeed say that Li Ang and Ling Zhenyu had a height advantage, but now looking at it, the shortest among them is only 30 centimeters behind Ling Zhenyu, but his height score is The gap is almost one meter, which only shows that they are incomparable in terms of jumping ability.

Ling Zhenyu jumped up hard. This was the first time he made a complete take-off. It seemed that he was in good condition today and he touched the bell for the first time.

Next it was Li Ang's turn. He was still not sure whether Li Ang just mentioned a height for fun, or whether he was really sure about this height.

When Li Ang walked under the bell, Ling Zhenyu's pupils opened slightly, "Aren't you ready for a run-up at this height?"

Although in theory, the height of the approach jump can be achieved by taking off on the spot as long as the movements are in place, but in fact, almost everyone jumps higher after the approach because such movements are more suitable for exerting force.

Li Ang's knees were bent to about 120 degrees, and then his whole body was like a light spring, taking off directly on the spot. Although Li Ang had not straightened his arms at this time, Ling Zhenyu knew that he could definitely touch it just by looking at his jumping height. arrive.

"This kid can do it! I don't think many members of our basketball team can match his jumping ability."

Liang Nana was on the side and sighed after seeing Li Ang's bouncing action. She now believed in Li Ang's running results.

People who are physically talented often do not just perform in one aspect. For example, Su Bingtian, a 100-meter flying man, can easily jump more than one meter.

The physical education teacher also commented:

"Physical talent is one thing, but if you look at his power movements, I can't find anything wrong with him. He barely wastes an ounce of power, which makes his movements look so easy."

"Who do you think can win between these two people?"

Facing Liang Nana's question, he hesitated for a few seconds and was at a loss to answer.

At first, he was almost certain that Ling Zhenyu could win the high-touch championship. After all, he had been a professional basketball player, and now he was a basketball coach, so his training had not completely fallen behind. Moreover, his height and wingspan advantage was still there, just standing. Height is a full ten centimeters taller than Li Ang.

It is already extremely difficult for Li Ang to reach the same jumping level as him. If he wants to beat him, he needs to jump more than ten centimeters more than him. I have to say that this is a bit whimsical.

"I thought you were going to choose Ling Zhenyu, but I think Li Ang has a better chance of winning."

After Liang Nana finished speaking, she turned her attention to the field again. Now the two of them are already challenging 355 centimeters. This height is exactly the previous historical record. If they can succeed, it will equal the previous record.

In Ling Zhenyu's sight, only the silver bell remained. Even the noise and cheers from the surrounding audience were automatically blocked by him.

"clang!"

Even though his fingertips only touched a little, the bell still rang, which meant that he had equaled the previous record.

Today, perhaps because of Li Ang's stimulation, he felt that his condition was better than ever.

Next, he can apply for a centimeter-by-centimetre increase to see if he can set a new record and what is the limit of his height.

The next second, when he turned around, he suddenly saw the bell he just barely touched with his fingertips, and it was shot by Li Ang and spun around in the air.

Grass!

A plant flashed through Ling Zhenyu's mind. Isn't this a hairy plant?

He just saw clearly that Li Ang's entire palm hit the bell, which means that in this jump alone, his limit of reaching height is more than five centimeters higher than his own.

Fortunately, he didn't rush and say something about adjusting the bell one centimeter at a time, otherwise it would be socially dead.

"See, what I said."

Seeing that Li Ang was still relaxed after the height was adjusted to 355 centimeters, Liang Nana couldn't help but say proudly.

At this moment, a man in his forties with a large bald head suddenly squeezed into the airtight wall of people.

He panted and looked at a man of about the same age next to him and said:

"Where is the person you are talking about? Where is he?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's finish watching the reaching height competition first."

The middle-aged man next to him didn't look anxious at all as he did on the phone just now. Instead, he focused all his attention on this reaching height competition.

"Oh, when can't we watch this high jump competition? Isn't breaking the record in 5km more important?"

The Mediterranean who was speaking was not an ordinary person, but a local leader in charge of sports.

The reason why he rushed here in a hurry was because he learned that Li Ang had just broken the national record in the 5km race.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone in the middle of the venue say:

"Will you try 3.6 meters? If not, I will increase the height."

Wait? 3.6 meters?

As a former athlete, although he embarked on a career in politics after retirement, he has always been engaged in sports-related work, so he is still very sensitive to these numbers.

Three meters and six meters high, he remembered that no basketball player in the whole city could reach this height. Now, if you come to any village, you can meet someone with such jumping talent?

Before he could finish being surprised, he heard the man just now continue to say:

"Don't you want to try it? Okay, just help me adjust the bell to 3.8 meters, forget it, just 3.9 meters."

After Li Ang reported this number, not to mention Ling Zhenyu, even the person in charge of adjusting the height of the bell was stunned.

Not a buddy, just add 35 centimeters in one go?

He even came over and confirmed with Li Ang,

"You mean, from the current 355 centimeters, adjust it up 35 centimeters to 390 centimeters?"

"Yes, that's right, this saves time."

The reason why Li Ang wanted to adjust it to this height was because he remembered that Jeremy Evans in the NBA created the highest jump height record in the American basketball world, 3.89 meters, and he simply broke it. This would not be too high-profile, after all, the world record for jump height has exceeded four meters, and it also attracted attention and could get more [limit-breaking points].

As a former professional basketball player, Ling Zhenyu naturally knew about this record, and that's why he thought it was outrageous enough.

When Li Ang broke the record earlier, he was surprised, but because his main job was not running, his knowledge was relatively limited. But when he casually proposed to break the record in his own business, he really understood how outrageous it was.

He persuaded:

"Why don't you start with 3.7 meters? This way, you can slowly increase it, and your body will be easier to adapt."

He didn't think Li Ang was a person who talked nonsense. At least for now, he has done everything Li Ang said.

"It's okay, just come on, finish jumping early and everyone can go to lunch early."

When Li Ang finished this sentence, at least half of the people present picked up their mobile phones, Douyin, start!

Even those who have no idea about this thing know that he must be challenging something very remarkable now.

"Still jumping from the spot?"

Ling Zhenyu whispered to himself.

Although he thought that he could jump higher if he ran up, Li Ang's high jump performance had surpassed his, so he would not go up and teach others self-righteously.

"Ding!"

Accompanied by the sound of a crisp bell, Ling Zhenyu deeply understood what it meant to stay in the air from Li Ang.

What was even more terrifying than Li Ang's high jump of 3.9 meters was that he still couldn't confirm whether this was Li Ang's limit.

"3.9 meters, I really touched it."

The leader in charge of sports forgot that he came to find the running genius.

"It's a pity that there is no high jump event in the Olympics, otherwise it would be at the national team level."

He was a little emotional. Although he had thought of several sports for Li Ang, they were not enough to fully bring out his jumping talent.

Although his jumping ability matches the high jump, Li Ang is still too strong and not slender enough. He has no problem jumping in basketball, but it is a comprehensive technical sport, not just jumping well.

"By the way, the running genius you mentioned at the beginning, isn't he the one?"

"As expected of a leader, you guessed it."

"Then why bother thinking about it? I don't believe that this small village can produce two world-class athletes at once."

After completing the 3.9-meter high jump, Li Ang also rejected the suggestion of continuing the challenge. It was enough to show his strength. There was no point in going higher. For now, he didn't want to expose too much of his physical fitness.

At this point, others would at most think that he was a genius that only appears once in a century. His physical fitness was basically top-notch in human beings. But if Li Ang broke the human limit in every aspect, others might doubt whether Li Ang was still human.

After the high jump competition, Li Ang was almost surrounded by people around him. According to their introduction, each of them had a great background.

There were coaches from the city sports school, leaders from the municipal government, and even a coach from the provincial team. These people were attracted by his speed of running 5,000 meters at the beginning. Until now, people have been coming one after another.

Although Li Ang showed the level of breaking national records in both competitions, the high jump event was still too unpopular after all. There was no official competition at all, so everyone was actually more concerned about his running level.

"Comrade Xiao Li, can you please do us a favor and have lunch together at noon?"

Faced with the invitation from the highest-ranking person, Li Ang himself didn't care, but seeing the hopeful eyes of several people from the Nie family around him, Li Ang still agreed, just as a benefit to the villagers.

Only Nie Zhaofeng laughed secretly, thinking that these people's goal was destined to fail. After all, even if Li Ang himself was willing, he couldn't join their team at all, because they came from the United States.

On the way to the hotel, they had already watched the video of Li Ang running recorded by the photographer in the morning. Seeing is believing.

There was no need to measure the distance of this track. The professional track and field team coach could tell from Li Ang's movements and the surrounding reference objects that he was definitely a world-class runner.

In a business car, several people were discussing excitedly.

"What's the name of this kid? Li Ang?"

"Why do I feel this name is familiar?"

"It's normal to be familiar. I searched today and found that this year's Tour de France champion is called Li Ang, but he's an American."

The physical education teacher added.

"Yes, yes, that's Li Ang. I remember it."

One of the coaches was very excited and quickly took out his mobile phone to search for related pictures.

After a while, he slapped his thigh and said with a strange look:

"Director Wang, I'm afraid we can't take this kid in." (End of this chapter)
