Do Thomas won the world high jump championship in one year. 18 months ago, Do Thomas of Bahamas had never touched the high jump, but his jumping ability was amazing. He is the main force of the college basketball team and has won the dunk championship many times. No.29, the 23-year-old black guy, didn't even run right. At the World Athletics Championships in Osaka, he beat a group of world-famous athletes with a blockbuster, and jumped out of the world's best result of 2.35 meters in this year's men's high jump final, becoming the world's "highest jumper". There have never been such legendary figures and stories in the world. Although some people used to joke that if "flying man" Jordan changed to practice high jump, he might win the world championship. Now, this assumption has been realized by Thomas who plays basketball. This myth began like this: in June 5438 +2006 10, Thomas's basketball buddies made a bet for him, saying that although he could not jump high, he could definitely jump over the height of 2 meters. The other party didn't believe it, so Thomas was taken to the high jump platform. He imitated backstroke, wore high-top basketball shoes and roared over 2 meters. Surprisingly, the beam seems unable to stop him. This guy jumped 2m 1 1 that day before stopping. Two days later, he took part in the high school track and field competition and made his first official high jump. Guess how much he jumped? 2.23 meters! And wearing high-top basketball shoes! He clumsily imitated the arc run-up in the high jump final on the 29th. Everyone runs with great strides, but he runs in small steps, which is extremely amateur. But when he finally took off, he exploded like a "monkey jumping into the sky" and rose from the ground. He was in trouble at 2.32 meters, and only crossed it for the third time. But at 2.35 meters, he succeeded easily for the first time. Looking at his ugly and weird run-up, some world-class stars can't help shaking their heads and pouting. But despite his ugly posture, he jumped high. Besides, he doesn't have professional dancing shoes at all. This time, instead of wearing high-top basketball shoes, he wore pole vault shoes borrowed temporarily. This is really irritating to the living who have not paid the price of their lives. In history, the Bahamas has produced many famous track and field athletes, known as the "gold rush" women's sprint relay team, and won the world championship and the Olympic champion. In the 1995 World Competition, Te Kemp of Bahamas defeated Sotomayor of Cuba and won the men's high jump championship. Although Thomas lacks high jump experience and is not famous in the world, he is very confident. After the game, he said, "Since you take part in the competition, you should try your best to do it well. It is not surprising that I won the world high jump championship. I have always dreamed of becoming a world celebrity. I'm sure I can jump 2.37 meters, I have no doubt. I want to win the Olympic champion next year! " Yes, the height of 2.37 meters was almost conquered by him on the 29th. He revealed that he only practiced the high jump seriously from June 5438+ 10 this year, and only practiced for five hours a week. He said that basketball is his favorite and high jump is only his minor event. "Anything can happen. You don't know what energy God has stored in you. I thought I could dunk, "Thomas said without joking.
