College coach discusses breaking world record for longest basketball hoop shot

A college coach has broken the world record for the longest basketball hoop shot ever.

Joshua Walker, from Louisiana, made the incredible shot from 113ft away, snatching the world record from a Harlem Globetrotter.

Walker has explained what inspired him to try and make history, and the major cool points he’s had from students since.
