2.46m. The History of the Human Jump Limit.

Video Description

An in-depth timeline of every 2.46m High Jump world record attempt. During the 2013 & 2014 season, Barshim and Bondarenko had one of the fiercest rivalries in track and field. Jumping 2.40m on a weekly basis, and challenging Javier Sotomayor's world record more times in those two years, than the other 30 years combined. ***REUPLOADED due to CR issues*** I was forced to make a few tweaks because the I.O.C took it down, even though this story doesn’t involve the Olympics. Glad it's back, kept it original as possible. This is my own favourite video, and by FAR my favourite story in the sport of athletics. So if you've seen it, or haven't I hope you enjoy the HECK out of this epic rivalry. 00:00 - Sotomayor's world record 2.45m. 00:44 - Bondarenko 01:32 - Bondarenko 1st 246 01:52 - Bondarenko 247 02:37 - 2013 World Championship 04:04 - 2014 05:38 - Bondarenko 3rd& 4th 246 06:18 - Barshims growth 06:53 - The Historic New York 09:55 - New York 246 attempts 11:37 - Barshim 241 11:52 - The 2014 Brussels Showdown 13:30 - Brussels 246 15:40 - The End of 2014 16:15 - Barshims 246 Finale 17:20 - Final Thoughts Support the content: https://www.patreon.com/JumpmanTF 2nd channel: https://www.youtube.com/@matehj Copyright Disclaimer: - Under section 107 of the copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for FAIR USE for purpose such a as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship and research.
