Don't you just wish they'd quit screwing around, 1/4 inch at a time, and jump 5 meters (16' 4.75"). That's the mark the world will recognize most. :D

she has made like 150 thousand dollars in bonus money in the last month by going up 1/4 inch at a time I would like to see someone jump 5m though, hopefully its stacy.

Bubka did the same thing. A little at a time and lots of bonus money. I wonder what he could have jumped if he had really went for it in his prime.

I think this is something that is going to be subject to a lot of wonder and debate for years to come. Many of us have seen jumps of his that to any other vaulter seem high, and he made it look EASY...very good question though...
Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. - Muhammad Ali

Talent in cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.

*Holy crap*

My "unofficial PR" (Bill Thilken's back yard, with crossbar) is 4.90, and I for sure didn't clear it like that!
