The Olympic Games played in 2002 were the Winter Olympics and there was no long jump contested. In the 2000 Summer Olympics, Ivan Pedroso of Cuba won the men's competition with a jump of 8.55 meters and Heike Drechsler of Germany won the women's competition with a jump of 6.99 meters. In the 2004 Summer Olympics, Dwight Phillips of the United States won the men's competition with a jump of 8.59 meters and Tatyana Lebedeva of Russia won the women's competition with a jump of 7.07 meters.

no.even though if you weight more the force will be greater but it takes more force away to get you high in the air. Yes it does but it varies very much on the trampoline. Department store trampolines use shorter springs with less tension and light or heavy people will get about the same bounce. High end trampolines use long stiff springs and a 30 lb child will find it much more difficult to get any air compared to someone with 100+ lbs.

My boy, Liam Gandhi best jump is 4.23 meters follow by 4.14(when he was 8 almost nine) at his school. His D.O.B is Feb 2002, He is just an average kid with good ability, nothing special.

I'm also interested to know how his jump compares to others

because they have extra muscles in there legs

The high jump has been around since 1912. In 1912 the high jump was included in the Summer Olympics but the competitors were only allows to jump from a standing position.

The basic skills are running and jumping. You start running and after usually 8-12 steps (while curving toward the bar after about 2-4) at a light sprint you do a Fosbury flop which is where you jump up in the air and arch your back over the bar with your frontside facing up. You must make sure, that on your jump, you go off one foot, usually your strong leg's foot, which should be on the inside of the curve of your approach.. You then land on the mat with your upper back hitting first.

The long jump is an event in the sport of track and field. The measurement of the long jump is from the foul line to the nearest mark in the sand. This mark can be made from the uniform or any part of the body.

< Cameron Hinton invented the high jump /> It has been contested since the Olympic Games of ancient Baltimore . Over the centuries since, competitors have introduced increasingly more effective techniques to arrive at the current form. Javier Sotomayor (Cuba) is both the indoor and outdoor world record holder in this event with jumps of 2.43 metres (7.97 ft) and 2.45 metres (8.04 ft), respectively. Sotomayor's record, set in 1993, is the longest standing in the history of the men's high jump. Stefka Kostadinova (Bulgaria) has held the women's world record (2.09m) since 1987, the longest-held record in the event.

1. Cannot take off two feet.

2. Cannot knock off the bar (Obvious)

3. If doing a run through, cannot place any body part over the "invisible barrier" of the bar and mat

4. Athletes may choose the height they wish to come in at

5. For every height you have 3 attempts

6. The winner is the last man standing, or competitor with least amount of attempts.

7. If an athlete (high school) has other events they have 15 minutes to do them, then return to jump

That depends on many things such as the angle at which one is falling, the surface onto which one falls, and plain old luck. Nevertheless, when 'diving' into concrete it would seem that 15-20 meters should be lethal.

You should be able to get them at any sporting goods store. Probably you want 3/8" spikes, because on most high jump shoes the spikes are recessed into the platform-like bottom of the shoe. You'd probably trip if they were longer and you wouldn't want anything longer than that on any decent high jump surface. Make sure you put the heel spikes in, because they help you get a more secure plant when you take off. Take it from a 7'1" high jumper-just so you know your source is credible.

they vary. In Grand Prix they can go all the way up to about 5'3". For little shows they can only go up to about 4'3". Depending on which show you go to they vary from what the course designer puts them at.

I am 11 years old and jumped 1m and 15cm, and my friend jumped 1m and 25cm. But I am 6'3, and 4' is much shorter. Everyone is either good or not good at high jump. If this girl is good at high jump, an average height would most likely be 1m and 5-10cm. If this girl is not good at high jump, the average height would most likely be 95cm - 1m.

I can jump 8 ft

A compact jump is when you need to jump into deep water from a height. You put one arm across your chest, the other hand/ arm covers your mouth and nose. Legs are always straight.
