I was sitting in the Stadium that night and will never forget it. She won gold and proceeded, just after midnight, to break the world record. We were all on our feet screaming...fantastic!
By proceeding to break the world record even after she had already secured her gold medal, Yerena really showed us what the Olympics are about. It’s not just a race in which you either come out on top or else you’re not good enough. It’s about overcoming your weaknesses and never giving up no matter what gives. It really upsets me when athletes get all grumpy and angry when they don’t win gold, and this is a wonderful example that shows when you have that Olympic spirit, when you truly believe in it and work hard for it, gold will never be the final destination but just something wonderful you encounter along the way :)
We had seats that night right in that corner of the stadium. It was about midnight, she was the only athlete left in a competion in the whole stadium. All eyes on Isinbayeva, everyone knew it was history in the making. When she crossed the bar, the place was going nuts! What an atmosphere! Electrifying! I still get goosebumps watching this video!
It's awesome seeing the determination and motivation in her eyes when she takes off, then a huge smile when she clears it flawlessly. Enough to give me chills.
Legend !!! I will not forget these Olympic Games !! This summer was probably the most beautiful of my life !! The aromas of Athens, this climate in the islands !! Strong sense of freedom in this country ..
I hate how people comment on the looks of the best women's pole vaulter in the world rather than her ability. Can we just appreciate the fact that she is an exceptional vaulter? Would never happen in the comments section of a men's vault video smh
That's true with every field. If you watch an educational video, sports video, motivational talk, anything man. if there is a woman in it, the comment section will be filled with comments about her looks along with other things. its like beauty has become a part of females. its an essential thing. no matter what a woman will always be judged on her looks. Fking sad reality.
It was 15 years ago. So much different times. I had no internet, there was no cable tv, just 3 channels. Olympic games and world championships were something we were waiting for. Once a year you could see the athletes. Maybe for the last time. I still remember all the emotions, all the happiness for seeing the historical moment.
The greatest female athlete of all time!!! And the most beautiful woman in the history of mankind!!! I love you Elena!!! From Athens Greece!! I was also in the Olympic stadium!!! 🌹🌹🙏🙏✌️✌️💋💋💋💋❤️
I remember seeing Isinbayeva break her then world records twice at Gateshead Stadium in July 2003 and June 2004, the moment I seen her break her record at Athens, I got a gut instinct that she would make it past 5.00m one day - no one in my family believed me ... until she did it of course. She is without doubt my favourite female Russian athlete of the 21st Century
Like everyone I love my country and I don't consider it as a crime, I am not talking about the politicians, I am talking about the our motherland, culture and people. How can't I love Russia, my parents are Russian and I was born , bought up and live in Russia
Nicholai Dmetrivech Steinberg YOU are your politicians... You vote for them, you know? Therefore your politicians are a mirror of YOU - the people. Listening to you is like listening to the Greeks at the moment :-) They blame their politicians for their debt crisis, but they forget that they voted for the same irresponsible politicians year after year after year
Nicholai Dmetrivech Steinberg It´s actually up to you. All I am saying is that I am certainly happy that I dont live in a country like that. I am happy that I dont vote for people like Putin. I am glad we havent got any corruption i my country. All I can say is that personally I wouldnt be "proud" of my country if I lived in Russia.
Настоящая Чемпионка!!! Только с таким горением в Большом спорте можно добиться успеха и Любви поклонников и настоящих почитателей твоего таланта,и огромного труда...!!!
Her izlediğimde ayrı bir hayranlık duyuyorum. Ne zaman kendimi kötü hissetsem ya da motive olmak istesem bu videoyu izlediğimde bana güç veriyor. Başarmak hiç bu kadar muazzam olmamıştı. Türkiye'den sevgiler 🇹🇷 ❤️
hottest body in the Olympics? lol that's subjective. i think a lot of the wrestling and weightlifting girls have better bodies. even the tennis girls and sprinters.
Nah, Stefanidi is a much better face for women's pole vault than Isinbayeva. People actually like her unlike Yelena. Her comments after the Rio Olympics were pathetic, especially since they were aimed at an athlete who was supporting her during the whole WADA incident.
She did to the women's pole vault what Duplantis is doing now, raising significantly the level. All great competitors of today jumping close to 5 m are the result of her great push to the sport.
I was sitting in the Stadium that night and will never forget it. She won gold and proceeded, just after midnight, to break the world record. We were all on our feet screaming...fantastic!
+philipc67 man you really are lucky .... moments like these stays with you forever
I watched it live - on TV - when I was a kid, and I still remember this!
Yes, why?
Yes, I agree, I watched her on TV at the Rio Games and she was fantastic. I was also in the 2008 Beijing Stadium to cheer the repeat Isinbayeva feat!
I wanna see her

I have read that pole vaulters repeat in their minds what they are about do step by step in order to do it correctly.
I can't believe this was a decade ago. I remember watching the 2004 Olympics so clearly. Wow time sure does fly by

The stadium full of Greeks. It was honor for us to host the Olympics.
Thank you Yelena for everything! GREECE loves and respects you!

right? this is so disrespectful. imagine training years and years for this moment and afterwards people only wanna talk about how hot you looked.
Watched her in Athens as a kid. Became an instant fan!! Lovely champion ❤
What a camera shot in slow motion breaking the world record with the olympic flame burning in the background. Awesome.
I was watching that on tv and will never forget how excited I was for her. She was a legend that night and so inspiring ❤❤❤

That 1.5 second feeling when you are falling down after knowing you just broke the world record in the Olympics. Priceless.
In my opinion the best women pole vaulter ever. She had grace and presence.
The crowd roaring and pumping her up, urging her on to Glory is even more intense.
This woman is such an inspiration. I love her! many greetings from a very very big fan in South America :)
Laughed at the scream of excitement before she's even hit the ground
I am proud of her and our country

Legend and awe inspiring woman . Her jump , crossing the bar , landing all seem like a poetry in action
Yelena Isinbayeva-the most Beautiful Olympic Champion ever.
That's exactly correct.
Let's not exaggerate, only in pole-vaulting there's better, just watch Eliza McCartney in Rio and come back to tell me I'm wrong:)
Feofanova and Isınbayeva, 2 legendary women and great champions!
Strength, grace and beauty! Incredibly captured! :-)

one of the best videos in youtube!!! amaaazing!!! gives me goosebumps!!
From Brazil, my utmost respect and admiration.
It is so so exciting to watch her do her thing in a stadium of hundreds of thousands. ❤️

Ich liebe sie!!!! Sie ist so authentisch und sympathisch! Sie bleibt auch in der größten Anspannung ganz Frau! Wunderbar!!!!!

Yelena Isinbayeva. Beauty and power. (- a fan from the Philippines)
Her eyes are so pretty
The hottest body in the Olympics, no doubt. Russia has some of the most beautiful and strongest women in the world, no question, amazing.
No doubt, trying to find a thin girl in the states is like looking for Sasquatch.

her and many other athletes were caught doping so she isnt natty
Рекордсменка мира , лучше неё в этом виде спорта нет и навряд ли в ближайшем времени будет .
I love her. She is the most beautiful athlete and amazingly talented.
