The best information I have came from a short film biography that stated in 1941 his fast ball speed was estimated by comparison with a speeding motorcycle going 86 mph. It was estimated he reached 104 mph. However, in 1946 radar guns were available. His fast ball was measured at 107.9 mph. Pretty fast. Claim is that his fast balls frequently measured over 100 mph during regular games. In a film biography of Bob Feller it is said in 1941 his fast ball was estimated at 104 mph. However, in 1946 when radar guns were available his fast ball was clocked at 107.9 mph. Pretty fast. He frequently exceeded 100 mph in regular games.
Racing Pigeon at about 100 MPH
The Delorean had to get up to 88 mph to time-travel. Source: the imdb page for the movie. See the Related Link below.
The NHL All Star game record is 170.4 km/h (105.9 mph) by Zdeno Chara. The KHL All Star game record is 177.58 km/h (110.3 mph) by Denis Kulyash. The world record is 191.5 km/h (119 mph) by Bobby Hull. I think the speed of Chara's slapshot went up to 108 mph during the last ALL Star Game's skill's competition. Even Shea Weber cracked 106 mph. Bobby Hull consistently had the hardest shot in hockey. Nobody nowadays comes close to his puck speed. It's remarkable that his brother Dennis also had a 100 mph + shot. Surreyfan

90-100 mph

No. Only a very few of them can throw 100 mph. They don't exceed 100 mph by much - 101, 102 is tops. Most of them throw a fastball in the 90's, and a few have a fastball in the 80's.
105-110 mph.
The equivalent of an 80mph pitch from 47ft at 54ft is 54/47*80 = 91.9 mph.
Yes, it is possible. There is some people who threw balls at 100. And there are lots of people who can throw them at 95.
If you can throw a baseball 95 mph consistently and move it around the strike zone with control, and can throw a lot of them without losing speed over a given period, say 20 minutes to a half an hour, then yes you can have a pitching career in baseball.
73 mph

No. Assuming the basketball can with stand the impact, the basketball will lose kinetic energy to the air around it and to the wall on impact.
Extremely few. If you go on Youtube, a 13 year old threw 93 mph.
Vida Blue could throw pretty fast since his Fastballs would clock around 100 mph.
