I loooove how high jump and pole vault events wrap up. The gold medal winner just keeps going until they hit a bar they can't clear and their fellow competitors cheer them on

The Greek bronze medalist just taped up the Swedish gold medalist's hand bw attempts, and the American silver medalist is standing next to him at the starting mark getting the audience hyped up🥹😭

edit: how sweet are these three!!!

helping him bw vaults to break his own world record

And he did!! Ring the bell mondo!!!!

Bronze pole vaulter Emmanuel Karalis and golden long jumper Miltiades Tentoglou are long time friends. This gorgeous photo encompasses the euphoric state after a shared big success, the accumulated chronic physical struggle it takes to reach those athletic levels and above all their healthy and heartwarming friendship.

Before the Olympics began, people were asking me what I was most excited to watch in the athletics (as someone who enjoys watching the Diamond League etc.). I mentioned the Men's Pole Vault, and had to explain who Armand (Mondo) Duplantis was, and how great he was 💖

Catching up with the Olympics athletics coverage (I'm a couple of days behind), and wow, just wow. That Men's Pole Vault final was everything!! Watching them all season, I love how all the guys are genuinely friends and chat and mess around between vaults! Sam Kendricks absolutely loving life and vaulting super well to get the silver! Emmanouil Karalis achieving so much and getting the bronze! Renaud Lavillenie in the crowd beaming like a proud dad watching all of them 🥹👏💖

To top it all off, oh my gosh, Mondo getting me so, so stressed with his 3 attempts at 6.25m! But he did it! On the 3rd attempt, he nailed it! What an amazing moment and the gold medal and world record is so well deserved 🥹👏💖

TL:DR, I need more people to gush about the niche fandom of the Men's Pole Vault gang and Mondo Duplantis with 😂💖

~~~ Gel Buluta Bakalım ~~~

sende mi yağmur yağıyor...

üstüme yıllar damlıyor...

bak, nasıl ıslanıyor ömrüm...

bende bir çığlık uyuyor...

ayaklarımın ucuna basarak yürüyor ömrüm...
