  • not ukraine

    

  • sergey bubka is russian right?

  • greatness

  • this is german music though ... lol

  • lol he never cleared 6.16 his highest was 6.15 indoor back in 1993

  • 1 - OMG LOOK AT THE HEIGHT HE HAD OVER 6.16!!!!!!!!

    2 - OOOMMMGGG look at his left arm in the second jump - it collapses due to how massivley stiff the pole is - THEN HE STRAIGHTENS IT AGAIN.

    Men should not be capable of this act.

    Therefore, bubka is god.

  • His left arm collapses in his second jump because he's under and therefore had a bad take off. Also, Bubka has even said he does not push with his left arm he actually PULLS! he doesn't straighten his arm in that jump the pole actually does. Additionally, Bubka has also said he's not the greatest athlete. He's said that hes competed against many athletes that are more athletic then him but they don't beat him because they don't use the right technical model.

  • he does not pull with his left arm upon take off. please do your research. and he was not under. you can tell how his foot leaves the ground.

  • I have done my research and I've done it very well. I have also met Alan Launder and Roman Botcharnikov both close personal friends of Bubka and Petrov his coach. Granted yes i have not Bubka himself but I have met personal friends of his and I've discussed technique with them. So please don't tell me to do my research, I've done it, and believe me I didn't believe what they were saying was true at first but after discussing it with Alan and Roman and then trying and teaching it. It works.

  • if you know anything about pole vaulting, then there is no time in which you pull. sorry, you are wrong. you must have misunderstood.

  • Comment removed

  • @pvkoala21 well upon initail take off you push your left elbow out trying to create a window. When you are at the top of your vault you are right; where the person must use his left arm to pull.

  • @gautlet996 but really, all that comes naturally, so dont think about it too hard or u'll just mess urself up.

  • @wrestlepwn dude... their is a pull. you push up at take off and after that you pull, thats the petrov model. nick doesnt coach the petrov model hes different he believes in pushing the pole up the entire time.

  • i got what you said in an email notification. you said earlier "Also, Bubka has even said he does not push with his left arm he actually PULLS!".

    the way you worded this makes it seem like he pulled upon takeoff! yes you pull once you are inverted. and being american has nothing to do with bending the pole. i was taught the petrov model and have done my research as well. i dont know where you are from, but it doesnt matter. just cause i live in the US doesnt mean im stupid.

  • @wrestlepwn yea Bubka takes off every so slightly outside. This allows him to get off the ground better before his pole hits the back of the box.

  • @gautlet996 exactly....

  • hence my name...hahaha

  • Excellent footage!

  • wow
