During the women's javelin in the heptathlon competition at the World Athletics Championships, fans spotted an interesting technique from one of the competitors. Poland’s Adrianna Sulek sported a unique method of throwing the javelin. Sulek can be seen twirling her left arm and jumping up and down as she gets ready to throw.
Her arm was still twirling akin to a conductor in front of an orchestra as she began her run-up before releasing the javelin. Despite her unconventional methods, Sulek finished fourth overall in the heptathlon, narrowly missing out on a medal to the USA’s Anna Hall.
The clip has gone viral on social media as fans shared their thoughts on the bizarre technique. Twitter user @RobMeech said: “Perhaps she conducts an orchestra in her spare time?” @BrexitHostage added: “I thought it was the new discipline of artistic javelin…”
