Dang, he would have cleared another 6-8 inches based on the side-view at the end of the video!

Currently? Probably not

Not sure about that. Bolt completely shattered records. I’d also put him behind guys like Phelps if we’re just talking about Olympic sports

How is it that one guy can be so much better than everyone else? Seems like they’d all be essentially the same.

Are all sprinters the same? Or any other T&F event?

Meh, he dropped in for a couple years, used the LSU brand and hopped out and back to his country when it was convenient.


So ignorant

The man loves LSU... he is living like a king in Sweden. Let him live his life.

I would like to see him up the record about 6 inches at his next meet. Doing this would raise the "bar" for any future pole vaulters. If he should get hurt or some kind of illness doing this would get is record up closer to his real potential.

Then he could go back to 1 cm improvements for many more years.
