  • The short career of Vladimir Yashchenko. The greatest straddler, 3 time high jump world record holder & still one of the biggest what-ifs in the sports history.

    Its not the injury that turns someone into an alcoholic its their thinking in the first place. So if someone is very prideful and driven by their ego, they will live in the past and talk constantly about how good they were. Its the thinking that makes them drink. They won't be grateful for being that good in the first place they will be resentful that it was taken away. That leads to needing a drink.

      How do you know if he was a greatful, or what individual regrets led him to the bottle. He had a livechanging accident and you belittle the resulting alcohol addiction. Cheers

    imagine living in ussr, seeing the outside world at 19 and immediately being severed from it forever and any hope to make a career at homeland immediately after? and living in virtual poverty and inside one of the most alcoholised communities of their time after all that? and people still are moralising about nOt ThInKiNg RiGhT leading to alcoholism
    please, get off your high horses people

    The “superiority” of the flop is doubtful. Yashchenko was a monster. People stopped learning how to do the straddle because the flop was more fashionable. The two techniques utilize different skills and attributes. The straddle requires enormous strength, attention to technique and discipline. The flop needs flexibility. Absent his injury, Yashchenko would have jumped 2.40 or more, IMO.
