The Fosbury Flop: Making High Jump History #running #track #shorts

Dick Fosbury of the USA changed the sport of high jumping forever at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City by creating a new jumping technique where he would arch his back and flip his legs over the bar. This became known as the 'Fosbury Flop' and became the standard in track and field from that day forward.
