Ben Plucknett was an American discus thrower born on April 13, 1954, in Beatrice and passed away on November 17, 2002, in Essex. In May 1981, he set a world record with a throw of 71.20 meters in Modesto, and later improved this record to 72.34 meters in July in Stockholm. However, his records were annulled due to a positive doping test for Nortestosterone, leading to an 18-month ban. After his suspension, he achieved a throw of 71.32 meters in June 1983, which remains an American record (as of 2015).
