HOUSTON, Dec. 20 (UPI) -- A Harlem Globetrotters player warmed up for an upcoming world tour by sinking a shot thrown from the top of the Houston Texans' NRG Stadium.

A video posted to the team's official YouTube channel shows Thunder Law, a star Globetrotter and holder of three basketball-related world records, throwing a ball from the top of the stadium toward a hoop set up on the ground.

Law said the distance was considerably more than the 109 feet he once managed while doing a trick shot inside a gym.

"I've never been this high up before," Law says in the video.

The trick shot comes ahead of the team's world tour, which kicks off in Houston Dec. 26.
