This was great footage and coverage of a man who ended up dominating the sport he loved. From the beginning to the end he was productive. His records speak for themselves. Amazing basketball career
Thank you so much for sharing this incredible footage. Seeing new clips of Wilt Chamberlain is such a gift, especially since so much of his brilliance on and off the court isn’t widely available. As someone who deeply admires Wilt and his legacy, I can't express enough appreciation for your dedication to bringing these rare moments to fans like me. This was my first time seeing this particular footage, and it brought so much joy and admiration. Your channel is truly special, and I am grateful for the effort you put into honoring Wilt. Thank you!

Im more of a 90s NBA guy but Ive always been in awe of Wilt Chamberlain. Hes not only one of the GOAT basketball players but hes also one of the single greatest athletes to ever live. For some reason he makes me think of Zeus. The man just doesnt seem real to me.
I remember as a little kid going to my grandfather’s old warehouse and reading his sports almanac’s. Wilt Chamberlain held so many records it was incredible. He still does.
UA-cam really a blessing hope young bucks taking the advantage of all this inspiration & motivation…for some reason the younger wilt reminds me of Kobe the way he talk an walk
oh man, this is so awesome. i don't know where or how you found and put this together. but this is really great. i love wilt. and seeing so mcuh of his beginning on tape is superb
I admire how well spoken, insightful and measured his words usually are when he speaks. He would've been an amazing talent scout and an executive like Elgin Baylor.
Wilt’s lovely mom looks like she kicked plenty of butt and didn’t take no mess from her kids! His father seemed reasonable but understandingly stern! Solid foundation! His upbringing definitely directed him towards discipline and success ✊🏾👑💖
Wilt was the most physically impressive basketball player I ever saw. He could could just about put a defensive player through the hoop with the ball if he wanted had wanted to. If he had been born 20 years later he would have been very, very rich. He would have been "Mr. NBA". Once scored over 100 points in an NBA game.
Videos like this is a reminder of how quickly life goes by. I remember being a little kid right after his nba career. So long ago but it doesn’t really seem like it.
He was really grown up at such a young age. The movie says, his Father worked really hard as a laborer. No doubt, Wilt's Dad and Mom worked really hard at bringing Wilt up to be such a fine young man. Not all people of color can pull themselves up from their bootstraps like this family did. Some don't even have bootstraps(or boots) to pull themselves up by.
He was freak.of nature back then. I was lucky to meet him once before he retired from the NBA. His team mate Al Attles brought him to Ripple field playground in Newark NJ. He was shooting hook shots from the top of the key.
TRIBUTE TO WILT CHAMBERLAIN'S LEGACY Watching this rare footage of young Wilt Chamberlain is like discovering a hidden chapter in the history of basketball-an absolute treasure trove. The towering giant who would go on to redefine the game is already showing glimpses of his extraordinary talent, athleticism, and raw power. To see Wilt in his formative years, dominating high school games, is nothing short of mesmerizing. The grace with which he moved, the sheer dominance in every play, and the relentless drive to excel were all hallmarks of what would become an illustrious career. Wilt wasn't just a player; he was an unstoppable force of nature, a trailblazer who shattered records and set new standards that still boggle the mind. His stats are legendary: from the 100-point game to leading the league in scoring and rebounding in ways that players today can only dream of. There's a reason why Wilt's name is often mentioned in the same breath as the greatest of all time. However, what sets Wilt apart isn’t just his on-court achievements but also his off-court intelligence and charisma. In an era where basketball wasn't the lucrative career it is today, Wilt made the most of his educational opportunities, proving that he was not just a physical marvel but also a sharp mind. Comparing Wilt to modern greats like LeBron James underscores how revolutionary he was. While LeBron is a phenomenal athlete and a smart player, Wilt was in a league of his own. His combination of physical prowess, basketball IQ, and unwavering determination was unparalleled. Watching this high school footage, one can't help but think about how Wilt would have fared in today's game. With modern training, nutrition, and sports science, it’s scary to imagine the heights he could have reached. Wilt Chamberlain's legacy is more than just numbers and records; it's about the indomitable spirit and the impact he had on the game of basketball. Videos like this are vital in keeping that legacy alive for new generations to appreciate and learn from. Hats off to @FoobasSports for bringing this gem to light and allowing us to witness the greatness of Wilt Chamberlain from the very beginning. This footage is a reminder that legends are not just born; they are meticulously crafted, one game at a time. 🌟🏀 If Wilt played today, he would surely dominate just as he did back then, perhaps even more so. And who knows? Maybe the next Wilt Chamberlain is out there right now, watching this very video, dreaming of the day they, too, can leave an indelible mark on the sport. Let's hope that the future brings us another player who can rival the greatness that Wilt displayed, but until then, we'll continue to marvel at the awe-inspiring legacy he left behind.
I practiced wrestling at Upper Darby High school Christmas vacations back when Wilt Chamberlain practiced basketball there and we shared a locker room…. Wow! Amazing guy ducking through the doors. He was the best athlete I ever saw… played my school one year and scored about 30 points in a quarter and we had a 6’ 10” center who disappeared. I also ran track and kept up to date with his all everything sports He ran the quarter mile same time as my winning times and his high jumping! What a privilege!
This dude was so spectacular of a basketball player he played professional basketball in a real league as a kid under another name during high school too. Absolutely Spectacular!
The HALLOWED halls of Overbrook! They'll never see anyone like the 'Stilt' again!. Thank you, Mr. CHAMBERLAIN for all those incredible memories!! RIP...
I loved watching this for the first time,the color added to it made it look lively,especially when he was in front of a home and the convertible car pulls up 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks for this amazing video. As a 65 year old who saw Wilt play and everyone since, there is no question he is the GOAT. To the Jordan and LeBron lovers, not even close. Greatest champion=Bill Russell, Greatest competitor =Michael Jordan, Greatest player= Wilt Chamberlain. No doubt.
You remember watching him when you was 2 years old because by time you wad old enough to remember you saw older wilt who was still good and underrated passer..it's like Sabonis we here in usa didn't get to see prime sabonis damn russians
Actually, Wilt retired in 1973 when I was 14 years old. So, I saw some younger Wilt. He was the most dominant player ever. Near the end, he would walk up the court on offense instead of jogging. Of course, he also decided not to shoot one year when he led the league in assists. Good thing they did not keep block shot statistics back then because that record would be as unbelievable as his scoring records.
Spectacular film footage of the greatest big man ever. In 2022 I met one of the guards on Wilts Overbrook team - his name is Howie Hornstein and he is still playing BBall! And, he wears an Overbrook H.S. letter jacket.
@@joeblow2426 He said what a nice kid he was and could not say enough about his athleticism. Howie lives in Atlantic City and makes the rounds of the playgrounds when he can. Take care.
I'm a big Wilt fan, but the 100 point game was a joke. What do I mean? First off, as we all know, the game wasn't filmed, so we can only go by accounts from the people that were there. Word is, when Wilt got to 70, the fans started changing "WE WANT 100! WE WANT 100". So his teammates decided they were going to get him 100. How did they do that? * His teammates refused to score!!! They were passing on open layups just to get the ball to Wilt for more shots. * They would quickly foul the other team so they could get the ball back and, you guessed it, give the ball to Wilt so he could score again. * There was no reason for him to be in the game near the end, because the team was already up by 20. * He took 63 shots! I believe he shot 36 of 63, which is a very good 57%. But 63 shots? Most guys don't put up that many shots in 4 games! If he was 36 of 45, you'd be like, wow, he was unstoppable. He put up a boatload of shots! Nobody will score 100 today because, simply put, nobody would be allowed to be that selfish! But if the goal was to get 100, I do believe it could be done. But it would be the same thing, where everyone else would refuse to shoot, would be getting their teammate the ball, fouling the other team so they could get the ball back, etc.
Overbrook grad... I have to say, it was surreal hooping in the old gym, having watched footage of Wilt's exploits on that same court. True sports legend and American icon.
@@FoobasSports If you have a chance to do so, reach out to Overbrook's administrative office and tell them what you do. I'm sure they would be open to a tour. We have quite a history. Thanks for keeping his story alive!!!
This is really my favorite basketball player of all time he was a phenomenal person and basketball player. You cannot touch him in his young years 50 inch vertical and 7 foot one and 3/4 almost 300 pounds averaging up to 54 points a game hit 100 points in one game, nobody comes close
Can you imagine Wilt playing in the NBA today? No one would be able to stop him. There're no centers with that kind of power today. No Bill Russell, no Kareen, or Bellamy or Willis Reed with their size and strengh. Not to mention that you can now take four steps and not be called for walking. He'd probably average 60 points and 30 rebounds per game and 10 blocks per including blocking 3 pointers with his speed and athleticism. He was a track star.
WOW! I'm 56 year old and been watching all kinds of sports shows and documentaries since I was 10 years old,I never knew that footage like this existed.
This is epic footage wow! We all know the legend of Wilt but I didn't know at that time he was considered the best athlete in the world at age 17. I don't know if we could say that about any other human being.
@anthonytaylor7928 Ppfffttt, are you kidding me!?! How young are you?? He had all the women, all the stature, and he was black during segregation. U think he wasnt hated? Lolol

Im proud graduate of overbrook .. and even more proud that i met him .. when he came back to visit
He needs a movie
Someone has to be tall
And a 30 for 30
Despite only having a few inches on him he still slept with 20k women.

@@bonzie321 and that's another reason for a movie.
The NBA and it's media does an absolutely terrible job remembering the greats of the past. Wilt is one of the few greatest of all time
When David Stern was commissioner they did way better.
That's intentional.The NBA does not want to go back beyond the 1980's. Dr. J made a similar statement in a video
No they don't what are you talking about
