World record attempt…of sorts

Coming towards the end of a long season, this understandably was not a meet for World record attempts. Well, that was what we had all thought until 33-year-old Tim Lobinger, having already secured a home win in the Pole Vault to the delight of the crowd with a second time clearance at 5.93 - the best by a European this summer – decided to spice up the celebrations a bit.

After making two lack lustre attempts at 6.01, Lobinger who was competing in his 23rd meeting of the summer (!) asked for the bar to be raised to 6.16m, one centimetre above Sergey Bubka's best ever (6.15m indoors in 1993; outdoor World record is 6.14 from 1994). With the rest of the meeting finished, much of the 50,000 strong crowd stayed behind to urge on their man, but it was not to be, as Lobinger was left a top of his pole for a moment having exited from the vault before he had made any true attempt at negotiating the bar.

Still it was an unexpected extra moment of drama on an absorbing afternoon of athletics. Italy’s Giuseppe Gibilisco was second (5.83m) and Germany’s Björn Otto, third with 5.73m.
