Armand Duplantis | The Prince of the Pole Vault 

this man used to make rhythm game videos/documentary, he has a lot of experience and has really refined it. i respect him.

i agree

But Sergei Bubka is now making money on the blood of Ukrainians. He trades various goods with Russian thugs.

Yes l agree 100%❤

the crazy part is its not even a summary because he is barely in his prime he has so much left

Arguably, Sergey Bubka (Ukraine) who jumped nearly as high 30 yrs.ago with somewhat less efficient equipment. It would be interesting to see what Bubka could have done with today's poles.

Mondo is now the king, but the Prince of Pole Vault’ has a better ring to it than the ‘King of Pole Vault’ :)

@@davida.4933 the poles are virtually identical except for personal preference. They both use(used) 5.10-5.30m glass fiber UCS spirit poles. The only thing separating their performances is the progress of time.

⁠@@davida.4933I’d say Bubka can still claim kingship. He held both the indoor and outdoor world records (breaking them himself, but not letting anyone else do so) for almost 30 years. Except for the fact that he only ever won one Olympic gold medal, it’s hard to think of a major track and field event that has ever been dominated for so long by one athlete.

Not any more..

sergey would never be able to do what mondo has done hes the king all right but the new prince is surely going to end up a better king when mondos career is done

And Mondo is the Emperor IMO, Mondo breaks all the records of Bubka

Who is this Sergei guy? Its mondo time

Go back to your basement, kid.

Really, an almost 20 min. vid and this is what you contribute as a response - LMAO!

@@veridicusmaximus6010when you actually butcher relatively easy names you should be called out. I understand not being able to pronounce Pia Skrzyszowska but jan zelezny is ridiculous

@@mrnowak2835 Again, nothing wrong with pointing it out but when it's your only response to a 20 min. vid - ha - as you would say GOOD GRIEF!

Stop malding.

There was a lot of factors for that not just that his mother is swedish.. He's brother competed for Sweden. Sweden would let his father still be his coach. His father and him had much more freedom to decide things. His father was also "official National team Swedish trainer" in competitions and all that. Sweden has easier try-outs to Olympics. He can focus on becoming the best. Not as in US he has 1 competition he needs to be good at. If he fails he won't go to Olympics and so on. Sweden offered him a better deal overall. They let him do his things and check how far it has taken him. I know for a fact in US that there is a lot of politics and bureaucracy and people trying to meddle with everything. I can garantee that if he would have competed for the US national team he would not have had the success he has had now with all the world records

Oh please, get rid of that awful "goat" term. It means loser, not greatest of all time. Lose that effing term.

He wouldn't deny being an American dude

So much crying

I mean his Mom is swedish

That's not the only reason. There was a lot of factors for that. He's brother competed for Sweden. Sweden would let his father still be his coach.
