The Swedish jump with the sixth Arman Duntomantis set a new world record at the Summer Olympic Games – 2024 in Paris.
The final jumping competitions among men went to the Stade de France, a stadium in France, located in the northern suburbs of Paris Saint -Denis.
Dunthultis, on the third attempt, was able to overcome the bar of 6 m and 25 cm. The previous Olympic record belonged to the representative of Brazil Tiago Bras da Silver (6.03 m at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro).
In addition, the two -time world champion updated its own achievement, dated April 2024, by 1 cm (diamond league, China).
In the same discipline, American Sam Kendricks won a silver medal with a result of 5.95, and Greek Emmanuel Caulis – took a bronze with a result of 5.90.
Having broken the record, Armand Dunthontis accepted the cult pose of the Turkish shooter Yusuf Diker, putting his hand in his pocket.
51-year-old shooter Diker performed at the Olympics without special equipment and won a silver medal in shooting from a pneumatic gun from ten meters.
Unlike other athletes participating in the competition, Diker did not put on special glasses that avoid glare, as well as noise -disposable headphones. In addition, when shooting, he at ease, held his free hand in his pocket.
