- ALTISSIMO!! Here is coverage of the Mens High Jump from the 2004 Olympics with some passionate italian commentators. Stefan Holm had a stellar year in 2004, being undefeated all season and it was undoubtedly the peak of his career. He won the olympic gold with a first up clearance at 2.36m. Matt Hemingway of the USA was second with 2.34m, and Jaroslav Baba of Czech Republic was thrid with 2.34m.
The audio gets a bit out of sync with the visual in some parts, but overall its not too bad.. - กีฬา
Considering Holm was 5'11", it's just astounding he beat these giants. According to The Sports Gene book, Holm's achilles tendon was something like four times stiffer than the average man, which allowed it to store more energy and explode with greater force after compression.
One of the greatest high jumpers in the history of the sport. This earned him a gold medal.
Sure
And he still holds the world record....for jumping the highest height-margin above an athlete's own head-height. .......59cm. He is 181cm tall and has a PB of 240cm. Even Sotomayor couldn't manage that.
@@david2804me I believe he shares that record with Franklin Jacobs.
@@bman342a That's interesting because I do not remember that name at all from all that time ago but it would seem you are right as per Wikipedia. Thank you for that.
Så himla mäktigt, ett oförglömligt OS-guld 🥇🇸🇪
The technique and skill of these men is amazing. I am a jumped myself and I always have to tell people that track is more than just running, its just as intense and hard to perfect as any other sport.
i love Baba hugging the sitting refree =D
OMGi saw him two days ago with his son (13 years old) competing in high jump and he jumped 1,78 (30 cm higher than stefan could in the same age
1,78 at 13?!?! Holy shit, I was at like 1,40 or something at that age, and I was pretty good for my class.
@@usmh that kid is 15 now and has jumped 2.17. Insane.

@@efisgprhe is like 18 now and still hasnt jumped 2.20 so the progression is slowing down but i think he was injured some time.
