Olympian pulls out kid’s tooth using a javelin — VIDEO

USA gold medalist Bryan Clay may not be competing in the decathlon anymore, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t found a reason to use the javelins that are laying around the house.

Clay posted a video of him pulling out his daughter’s tooth on Tuesday — using a javelin.

“What you use javelins for once you’re retired,” Clay tweeted along with the video.

Clay tied a very long string to the end of a javelin, then tied the other end of the string to his daughter’s tooth and tossed the javelin.

As you’d imagine, the javelin flew quite a ways … and so did the tooth. But don’t worry, Clay assured fans that the tooth wasn’t lost.

“Don’t worry, the tooth is safely under her pillow!” Clay tweeted after the video.
