On March 2nd, 1962, Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points in a single NBA game — a record so unbelievable, it still stands untouched more than six decades later. But here’s the thing… no one ever saw it. There’s no broadcast footage, no full radio recording, and only a handful of photos from that night in Hershey, Pennsylvania. For an achievement this historic, how could there be so little proof? In this short documentary, we set out to solve basketball’s greatest mystery — what really happened the night Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points. Through interviews, research, and rare archival evidence, this film dives deep into the story behind the missing footage, the myths that grew around it, and the truth about the game that’s been hiding in plain sight for over 60 years.
