Somersault
Captured in mid-air, this pole vaulter is moments away from landing, looking a bit rumpled, but understandably so. The pole vault requires immense technical skill, making aesthetics a secondary concern. Interestingly, the women’s world record height is 5.06 meters, achieved by the remarkable Yelena Gadschijewna Isinbayeva, who initially excelled as a high jumper. Isinbayeva’s talent was extraordinary, having broken the world record 30 times and being the first to clear five meters. In this sport, it’s the achievement that matters, not always the appearance.
