  1. Total fail for Sibilio missing out on any kind of record.
  2. From nearly dying due to getting a pan of boiling oil on your head as a baby to winning an Olympic medal. That is quite something!
  3. Scrap that and add 'running and field events' and I'd still agree
  4. With a time that's only 0,02 above the 'old' (and insane) world record!
  5. I dare say this closes in on, if not beats Bob Beamon for most bizarre world record in athletics history.
  6. I thought we'd have the 400m hurdles semis now, totally missed it's the final
  7. The top-6 has a total of 17 (!) jumps between 6.80m and 7.00m!
  8. Oh well, half a century ago the old people most likely said nearly the same: And the current TikTok 'generation' will say something similar in 20-30 years from now against whatever is the new thing young people do then.
  9. She can use her prize money to pay back every ticketed spectator!
  10. I highly doubt Bach himself is actually involved in the single events
  11. Actually I do like that there are sprints here, I find the 200m awesome to watch as well as an explosion of power. But 1000m, come on, it's not even four minutes Maybe World Athletics can remove the 1500m and replace it with a 1000m.
  12. I am aware of that, but that's what makes it awful. This was 1000m of huge tension, why have only half of that? Which logical reason could possibly be behind it?
  13. The always unfair advantage of being a big nation
  14. I don't know much about ICF, but they must be known as absolutely horrible? I mean, is this event not exciting enough? One of the best finals of the entire Olympics..
  15. Oh what a final! This becoming a 500m is disgusting (after being an Olympic event since 1936!), this was awesome...
  16. I find it both odd and so cool that there's a country in the world where sprint canoeing of all things is the only sport in which they're not half-bad
  17. No superb level in the long jump final, but it definitely is close
  18. That's why two 1000m's are getting axed in half! Because that's shorter and so, by definition, better!
  19. Always grab the live timing in these kind of finishes
  20. Teresa Portela wins the B final and a few minutes later gets silver in the A final
