If you've come to the comments wodnering why at 9 minutes the Anita Wlodarczyk section is weird, it's because 20 seconds of it was forcibly cut after upload due to copyright. Full version on my patreon for FREE, as are all videos that have previously been decimated. For the missing info: At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Polands Anita Wlodarczyk won the women's hammer by a margin of 5.54m, this being over Chinas Zhang Wenxiu. Wlodarczyk is the most decorated hammer thrower of all time, man or women. Hope you still enjoyed!
Except it's a nod to the FANTASTIC "crisis of Bob's" video by Jon Bois. If you like this video, you NEED to sit down and watch that man's entire backlog, it's great.
9:28 I loved that her last Olympics in Paris when she was beaten (after getting injured chasing a car thief! :-)by the up and coming star, she cuddled the winner and apparently said something like: it's up to you now to push our sport.
If the WR at the time was higher, Isimbayeva's margin might have been as well. She didn't set the bar as high as she thought she could achieve, she set it high enough to get the WR :D
Oooh an hbomberguy style midroll fake out! I didn't even notice, the video had been so succinct and engrossing for the first 8 minutes I just assumed it was over. I love your pacing and editing style. Subbed!
Whilst a 2.57% and 46 second margin of victory for Ayana is statistically lower than some of the others... it is a 10km race. It is MAGNITUDES beyond the other races in complexity. You have to know your EXACT pace and not let anyone else change it. I think it should score highest EASILY just because it is the longest. You have to constantly push yourself to the edge of your perceived breaking point constantly for half an hour. Frankly, the sheer time investment also matters. You can practice dozens of long jumps in a day. You can realistically only practice a 10k once per day, and even that pace could be damaging over time.
Nice trick with the trumpets around Bob's appearance. A story well-told makes us remember the story and the telling; I was already remembering about him when we switched to "field".
Jumpman! what is the biggest blow out in history if you include non-championship performances? Is something like a weird javelin world record somewhere in a little town or duplantis when 2nd highest jumps a 5.82?
Great great video! Just a little note from me, both women pole vault and hammer throw were first introduced in 1994 and first included in olympic games in 2000.That makes them relatively "new" events,so a pure talent could dominate the event easier as less female athletes had the "know how"
Did you forget Ethan Katzberg's hammer blowout at the last Olympics in Paris? He won by over 4 meters ( 13+ feet)! That's gotta' be in the conversation Jumpman.
Fun fact, I once shared a lift with Yelena Isinbayeva and stood behind Maurice Green for breakfast. My uncle was a Diamond League judge and he got us into the athlete's hotel in Bruge, haha.
The most dominant athletes currently competing in track and field is Armondo Duplantis. No other athletes has ever held all of the top 10 performances in their event I'm pretty sure
@@user-ns8qi4uc3v Anita Włodarczyk is active-ish still, and she held the top 15 hammer throw marks in 2018. Iolanda Balas also held like 80 out of the top 100 marks in the HJ in 1964, and Sergey Bubka also held the top 20 marks in the PV in 1995 as well. There might be a couple other examples in the past, but to address the latter part of your comment, there have been athletes that have occupied as much as the top 20 marks in their disciplines haha.
how do you calculate the %?... Paula Ivan in 88 first in 3:53.96 and second was 4:00.24, so (1-(233.96/240.24))= 2.61%. or 240.24/233.96 = 2.68%. i cant work out how you got 2.54%. ..
Ah, I did all of these manually so I'll be honest, probably a typo. Just glad I didn't mess it up so bad that she was supposed to be in the top 5! I show that final list at the end of the track section, but those were just the top 12 or so? I calculated well over 200 of the standout performances, so there will be an error or two I missed. If you are interested though. Technically the heptathalon and decathlon had the largest margins of victory out of any events but didn't count them because they're multiple 'events'. Eaton indoors in 2012 got like 9% Joyner jersey 87 8+% And kluft 04 7+%
One I feel I should mention, although it wasn't WC or Olympics: Ruth Chepngetich at the 2024 Chicago Marathon, 5.8% faster than 2nd place and nearly two full minutes (1.4%) ahead of the former women's WR.
Okay... but these are simple straight percentages. What about standard deviations? I'd be curious to see if anything interesting arose out of such an analysis.
Standard deviation of what ? That’s not how that calc works .. you’d need a data set. In graduate school at a Research 1 school atleast you don’t do under 30 with a pop of 1,000 or more. Plus in track results of such few quantities your confidence interval would be ridiculous. % delta was appropriate here that was well done
Im in freshman highschool and at my first race i witnessed my teamate(Both freshman 9th grade) place 1st with a over half minute lead in a 13 minute race
Regarding the pole vaulting, the use of materials might have been restricted at some point in this would be why it hasn’t been broken in such a long time. And now a little self-promotion. Someday I might finish my book series Endo’s Deity.
the data from technology is driving insane gains. i do feel we may be approaching the time where people have perfect technique but have to be the right size to break the record
I remember seeing the Bob Beamon jump in 1968 but the actual defending champion, who won Gold in Tokyo in 1964 was actually Lynn Davies and not who you claimed!
the flip side is that when you have massive blowouts - especially in less technical disciplines - in a field of extremely dedicated and talented athletes, they often turn out to be achieved by... questionable means. doesn't mean it's possible that one individual is just that much more talented / uniquely built compared to the rest of the world elite, but history has taught us to be sceptical at least - particular concerning north american track athletes...
Those results may be skewed by the fact that some events naturally lead to a bigger difference than others (I'm thinking about the 100m or the field events, compared to long distance running for exemple). A good idea would be to set the median margin of victory of a particular event at 1, and see which results have the biggest margin compared to that median
already replied with a similar response to a guy, but I think percentage is actually pretty fair. I think it's more so that the running events have the lowest bar to entry, so waaay more good competitiors compared to a lot of other events. Although I do like your idea, but idk about the work to do it hahaha
the effort u put into your videos is insane like when you talk about something we see the footage of exactly that video TRP makes a video about kipchoge and shows some b roll of goofy ass noah liles or matt boiling egg
The true meaning of the Olympics is it’s belief that human potential makes us God like, or to reach Olympus. The Greeks believed that the Olympic competition released mana or spiritual energy to all of humanity witnessing the zenith of human achievements. When I watch these amazing performances it stirs my soul to believe that we still have a chance to create a heaven on earth. For a moment at least, I can forget about the desperate situation our world is in.
I was gonna say, that 5'01m looked like she could've gone another 5cm more at least, then you posted her top 5 jumps. She appears in the top 25 jumps ever 12 times
Such a good video! Surely you used some sort of script to extract the world records for comparison ?? Not literally manually copying and pasting into excel!?
Duplantis only breaks his record one centimeter at a time because he receives a $100,000 bonus from Puma every time he breaks the record. He knows he can go higher, but why go higher than you have to when you are receiving bonuses for your effort.
Distance running performances are just not comparable when using percentages. Ayana's performance doesn't get the recognition of how dominant it truly was. The longer the race, the smaller the margin of victory will show as a percentage
I honestly think percentage is a fair metric, the problem is that in the running events, there's a lower bar to entry so more competitors, making it harder to dominate.
@@JumpmanTF Percentage has one flaw though. As when you have a big lead it is instinctive to ease of and I would say in most cases everyone will do so. This leads to smaller percentage because there is just no point in doing the full run anymore. And the shorter the running distance the less this will play any part because one can't take it easy others being relatively close behind as there are no margin of error unlike in longer distance running. Nice video though...
Small inconsistency that I found: in the title, it says “running history”. I know later in the video you say track and field, but I’d just like to point it out
ain´t no way 🥷 how u looked that up bro more videos about kipketer bro had the snoothest form ever over 800 or more accuratley best form in running EVRER
took a solid week of research, bout 30 hourrish for the stats alone haha. So not too bad really! Plus found some really wicked performances on the way.
No one can beat Americans in speed records because no one can make Synthetic Drugs like the Americans. It is (or should be) obvious that when a runner is so far ahead of everyone else, it is because of better drugs.

Great work! I've wondered about this myself, thinking Beamon 68 would be the blowoutiest of blowouts. Turns out he's "only" third!

Impossible to know, altho I did lose by about 40 seconds in an 800m once. Doesn't get much worse than that. :)

thanks AJT, see you around on twitter all the time haha
1985 IAAF World Cup Javelin throw by Uwe Hohn of 96.96 m, compared to the 2nd place of 87.40 m is an increase of 10.93%.
10.94% (rounding up from .938)

Size of a blowout is probably a good indicator of doping, especially after 1968, when testing for anabolic steroids became reliable.
