    The high jump is a track and field event in which competitors must jump unaided over a horizontal bar placed at measured heights without dislodging it. In its modern most practised format, a bar is placed between two standards with a crash mat for landing. In the modern era, athletes run towards the bar and use the Fosbury Flop method of jumping, leaping head first with their back to the bar. Since ancient times, competitors have introduced increasingly effective techniques to arrive at the current form. Enjoy watching how the sports and its technique evolved over the years!

  • @sscswimmer1
    @sscswimmer1 2 года назад +32

    Looks like the technique changes along with the equipment changing. They had to land on their feet when they were just on grass. Sand pit comes in and now they don't necessarily need to land perfectly on their feet, so they can go more horizontal/higher and land with a fall. Then with the inclusion of full on padded mats, fosbury decides he might as well land on his back since it'll be a cushy landing anyway.

    Rouleau ventral Modifier
    L'athlète attaque l'obstacle latéralement en s'enroulant littéralement autour de la barre, à l'horizontale. Le problème de cette technique était le dégagement de la jambe d'appel au-dessus de la barre. Elle nécessitait des qualités de gymnaste éprouvées que seul le russe Valeriy Brumel a su porter, dans les années 1960, à leur plus haut point en établissant le record du monde à 2,28 m puis Ni Chih-Chin et Pat Matzdorf à 2,29 m. Signalons encore Vladimir Yashchenko qui, alors que le Fosbury était adopté par tous les sauteurs, s'éleva à 2,33 m le 3 juillet 1977, puis 2,34 m au cours de l'été 1978 en rouleau ventral, battant ainsi l'ancien record du monde détenu par le mythique Dwight Stones, l'homme qui franchit pour la première fois la barrière des 2,30 m. C'est avec Yashchenko que disparaîtra des tablettes des records du monde la technique du rouleau ventral
