It would be the same as doing the following results in other decathlon events: 100m 9,90s Shot put 22m+ High jump 2.35m 400m 44,0s 110mH 13,0s Discus 68m Pole vault 5.90m Javelin 88m 1500m 3:32,0 based on what would IMO be a likely medal result in world champs or olympic games. Gives some perspective just how wild the jump is.
@@giuseppecerreto5328 9.90 would have gotten bronze in Rio and is only 0.01 away from bronze in Tokyo. 3.32 would have been olympic gold in Rio and London
@@ozwunder69 I looked up the 1178 points equivalent in several events, in the IAAF table. What shocked me were the 110m high hurdles: 12.5?? That's much faster than the world record, somebody effed this up. For 100m you'd need 9.67. The 1500m number is 3:31. Although 3.31 is no way near as good compared to the specialists, no decathlete ever has even a remote chance to run the 1500m that fast at the end of a decathlon.
*Der 22-jährige Ehammer hat einen Weltrekord im Zehnkampf aufgestellt: Im Weitsprung hat er 8,45 Meter geschafft. Noch nie zuvor ist ein Zehnkämpfer so weit gesprungen. Äußerst bemerkenswert ist auch, dass Ehammer bei den Spezialisten bei den Olympischen Spielen im Vorjahr mit dieser Weite Gold geholt hätte. Rekord ist auch, dass der Schweizer für die Leistung 1.178 Punkte erhalten hat. Das hat noch nie zuvor jemand bei einer Einzelleistung geschafft.*
@@veridicusmaximus6010 I wonder if he might have better chances for gold medals if he specialized in long jump. If he did get 8.45m while also doing so many other events, who knows the potential. For now he needs huge improvements in discus and javelin to be competitive at highest level in decathlon score. But age is on his side so anything could happen.
Mit der Weite wäre er in London 2012 Olympiasieger geworden sagt der Kommentator, das stimmt ... und in Peking 2008, in Rio 2016, in Tokio 2021.

World Athletics, please, give us more combined events. In particular, the sport is missing a sprint&jump combined event, and maybe a throw&put event. Attempts to make the sport "more dramatic on camera" (cutting competitions down, compressing schedules, introducing weird rules) will never work. Athletics will never be a short-attention-span sport, That's just not what the sport is about. Instead, do what the fans like. The best thing to watch in athletics is when an athlete combines disciplines, and BEATS THE SPECIALISTS. Look how much attention JuVaughn Harrison gets. Or when elite sprinters competed in long jump. Why is no one combining hurdles and high jump? And so on.
Simply the best single performance in an individual decathlon event, highest ever score of 1178 points.
No wonder he was rather happy.

well we could just look at the point equivalence for 1178
@@ozwunder69 yeah, I just went by feeling of what would be medal results
9.90.100m and 3.32 on 1500 u don't win any medal today it's just average

Super Leistung!!!
Bravo Simon!
Simon is on a roll this year. Amazing jump!
8.45m in decathlon, it's as anomalous as Warholm's WR last year. Normally even a 8.00 is huge for decathletes.
Of course he has been jumping great for a while now - has multiple 8m+ jumps.

@@rxhx He can probably do both at this years WC. He certainly could get on the podium if he focused on it!

you may add Nenad Stekic, Serbia with the same result 8.45 1976
@@pmue437 Yes !!
Also Marcell Jacobs but wind aided
Simi zeigt allen, wo der Ehammer hängt! Flieg, Simi, fliiiiieg! Hopp Schwiiz!
He has the potential with that high performance technique.
9 m-Kandidat.
What a jump! He is so young. I hope he can improve his deca to 8800 in the coming years. Then again focusing on the LJ might be his prime ticket?
Просто фантастика ему нужно и в длину выступать 8.45 космос 👍

Super gut 👍
Con su juventud y sus disciplinas tiene tecnica por mejorar, hoy por hoy es mejor que otros competidores only jump...
Eine Flugshow die ihresgleichen sucht!
In-cre-di-ble
He reminds me of Bayer's 8.71
Amazing
That was a beautiful jump. Just under 27'-9", phenomenal for a decathlon event. Btw, gone are the days of 29'+ jumps for obvious reasons.
How is this possible!!!! Only 6 feet tall, not fast in the 100m... and does 8.45? How!!!???
he needs to switch to the long jump
