I just love the hammer throw at the Olympics. To see those very strong men and women who have trained and trained and trained stepping up and whirring, whirring and whirring that hammer is pulsating. Then willing and willing it on its fly path is just the best. It flies through the air like a giant missile as far as competitors can throw it before being pulled down by gravitational force to thump into the ground.

The hammer throw competition is a thrill from go to whoa.
