Viral Long jumper Asif gets call from Pakistan Athletics Federation
Posted By: admin 0 Comment




Karachi: Asif Magsi, a long jumper from Thatta, got a call from Pakistan Athletics Federation (PAF) after his video went viral on social media.

Asif can be seen jumping over 11 bikes in a viral video that got immense attention. In another video, Asif jumped over a lake covering a handsome distance with a Pakistani flag in his hand.

After a lot of people posted about the young long jumper, PAF contacted Asif and called him to Lahore where senior coaches will take his trial.

In a video message, PAF’s president Major General Akram Sahi assured that Asif will be facilitated with all available resources. “I personally contacted Asif and invited him to Lahore where we will polish his skills and make him capable of representing Pakistan at the international level,” he said.

“I have asked our senior and finest coaches to observe him as soon as he reaches Lahore. I hope he will grow up in a sold prospect for Pakistan,” he added.

I have watched that video a 100 times and I just can't imagine how he made that jump. Half way through it seemed like he is not going to make it then he plays a masterstroke and brings his trailing leg forward to give him that extra push. Amazing natural talent.

It's really good that such a talent wasn't simply let be, and that the organization gave him a call and invited him. An uncommon case in Pakistan.

he has talent but he needs to practice sensibly. the 11th bike could have broken his pelvis leaving him unable to jump again.

But will that organization nurture his talent properly or embroil him in petty politics and red-tape?
