Where did pole vaulting originate?
Pole vaulting is an athletic event where a person uses a long, flexible pole (which today are usually made either of fiberglass or carbon fiber) as an aid to leap over a bar. Pole jumping competitions were known to the ancient Greeks, as well as the Cretans and Celts.
Modern competitions probably began around 1850 in Germany, when it was added to the gymnastic exercises of the Turner by Johann C. F. GutsMuths and Frederich L. Jahn. The modern pole vaulting technique was developed in the United Statesat the end of the nineteenth century. In Great Britain, it was first practiced at the Caledonian Games. Initially, vaulting poles were made from stiff materials such as bamboo or aluminium; later, the introduction of flexible vaulting poles made from composites such as fiberglass or carbon fiber allowed vaulters to achieve new heights.

Yes pole vault poles do break. They can be spiked which takes away there structural integrity or be overloaded by the vaulter if the pole is too small. The poles will then break.
A vault line is a term used in architecture and engineering to describe the alignment or structural path of a vault, which is a curved or arched ceiling or roof. It indicates the direction along which the load is distributed and transferred to the supporting elements, such as walls or columns. Vault lines are crucial for ensuring the stability and integrity of vaulted structures, as they help in understanding how forces are managed within the design.
Most pole vault poles are fiberglass, yes. Some can be made of carbon fiber, which allows them to bend differently.
