    9 of these guys would be nothing without Dick Fosbury. This list is only based on height not on contribution. Heck in 1968 I scissor kicked 5' in High School and I was only 5'9". These guys are so tall they are not jumping much over their own height. Brumel was 6'1" and jumped to 7'4" WITHOUT the flop!

    The most impressive jumpers in the history of the sport are Holm and Sotomayor. What both were capable of borders on the freakish. Holm probably producing the highest jump ever (relative to body height) - possibly in the history of mankind - and Sotomayor clearing 2.45, which simply looks impossibly high.

    Hmmm... the list is predictable which is understandable given that it is based on best performances which are a matter of record. However, it is tempting to put Holm higher up the list just because he jumped a height above his own head greater than any other athlete has ever achieved...59 cm. In comparison, Sotomayor, who was much taller than Holm, only managed 52cm above his own head. Perhaps there is an argument for a new list based on who jumped the greatest height above their own head....this is a similar notion to having weight categories in boxing and weightlifting. PS. I am not Swedish in case you ask hehe.
