David Brisseault (born 7 March 1969 in Nice) is a retired French javelin thrower.[1] Aged thirty-five, he became one of the oldest athletes to be selected on the French athletics team for the 2004 Summer Olympics after recording a personal best of 82.20 metres from the track and field meet organized by his club Nice Côte d'Azur Athlétisme in his native Nice.[2]

Brisseault qualified for the French squad in the men's javelin throw at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by attaining an A-standard entry mark of 82.20 metres from an athletic meet in Nice.[2][3][4] Brisseault unleashed a javelin at a best throw of 71.86 m on his second attempt in the prelims, finishing nearly eleven metres short of his personal best and placing thirty-first in the overall standings.[5][6]
