nah, check barshim's feet. he always clips with his heels in big jumps
his body was 2:40+ but his feet had nowhere to go, maybe a cm or two
Yes, this is true. His body looked great though. I would say 2.43ish

Jagr in 3rd with 3 laps to go. Go Evan!!!
Something tells me Barshim is gonna break the record tonight
Not looking good with a lap to go
Jarius Birech has no competition this year.
Jager loses to Hughes, 8:12 to 8:15... there goes the fastest white guy title.
Birech is relatively short to be steepling so well.
Where's E.Kemboi?
Evan kinda died on that last lap.
HUUUUGHHHSSSS

Not nice.
Ouch Jager, that was one slow closing 400m. That's probably about the first "bad" steeple he's ever run. Pretty awesome a "bad steeple" was still 8:15. Really thought he'd run about 8 flat today, hopefully he takes another shot at it this summer, no doubt he can smash his AR

I laughed at this comment but inside I am disappointed.

WOW. Did anyone else just see Barshim clear 2.37 by AT LEAST 6-8 cm? He might actually have a shot at that WR today.
Yeah that was nuts

There are other events going on that people watch. One of them is called the high jump. Athletes attempt to jump over a bar more than 2 meters off the ground.

Canadian record?
Barshim JUST brushed 2.43 with his thighs. Incredible.

He looked flat, it happens. Hopefully he still has some left in him this season. Is that a PB for Dan?
Jager went for it but wasn't at 100% and paid the price.
Who would've thought that the high jump would be one of the most exciting events of the year ?
