👉 A record weapon, also known as a world record weapon, is an object that has been officially recognized by recognized sports organizations or governing bodies as having the highest possible performance standard within a specific sport. These weapons are typically designed to maximize the athlete's capabilities, pushing the boundaries of what is physically possible. For instance, the record for the longest throw in the discus event was set with a weapon that weighed 7.8 kg (17.3 lbs), while the record for the longest shot put throw was achieved with a 14.73-meter (48-foot) throw using a 22 kg (48.6 lb) discus-like implement. The term "record weapon" signifies that the object not only meets but often surpasses the current limits set by established standards, representing a pinnacle of athletic achievement and engineering.
