Schilder would have just barely made the Top 5 in 1982.

Our comentator the athletics supernerd Alfons Juck himself: "and here is Nick Ponzio who reminds me as somebody from the Soprano main cast"

he's really a character...

 

he may really be on the cast of a tv series like that...

 

p.s. he once said that his diet goes up to 12000 calories/day...

Well, Konrad Bukowiecki was bitching that his shot was deemed ineligible and he didn't want to use the one provided by the organizers so he's using Haratyk's shot instead. Just anything to justify he's out of form (or hanging around Kaczmarek too much ).

so, he's justified whatever he does...

 

oh, Pichardo has decided to take at least 1 serious jump in the triple jump qualis...

nice try by Dongmo, but still 42cm behind Schilder...

Meh, I don't like the side by side shot put finals. Becomes too saturated. Like following qualifications almost.

 

Not nearly as bad as having Heptathlon and Decathlon held simultaneously in Tokyo, though...

Yeah, do not know which genius came with that idea to have both Shot Put finals at same time

Wiesiolek blew a tyre in the last 20 meters but still finished 2nd
