On September 16th, Beijing time, the Tokyo Athletics World Championships went on with great excitement. In the spotlight men’s pole vault final, Swedish athlete Duplantis finished last but dominated the event by vaulting a new world record of 6.30 meters, breaking human boundaries once more and achieving a third straight world championship win. This is astonishing—Duplantis has now broken the world record 14 times, each time by exactly 1cm, earning $100,000 for every new record!

Duplantis emerged spectacularly in pole vaulting, breaking the world record twice in 2020, three times in 2022, twice in 2023, twice in 2024, and already three times before the 2025 World Championships. He has clearly reached the pinnacle of this sport, leaving all challengers far behind. He constantly strives to surpass his own world records, making him truly unprecedented and unlikely to be matched anytime soon!

The venue was packed with a huge crowd, every seat taken, all eager to witness if Duplantis could surpass his latest world record of 6.29 meters. He hit the bar on his first three attempts, but on his final try at 6.30 meters, Duplantis sprinted, planted the pole, and flawlessly cleared the height, setting a new world record. It was absolutely incredible. After breaking the record, Duplantis celebrated wildly, running to the stands to celebrate with the audience!

This is Duplantis’ 14th world record—truly astonishing. Clearing 6.30 meters means vaulting higher than a two-story building, an achievement others can only dream of. His rivals’ finish lines are just his starting points. Moreover, Duplantis consistently controls his increments perfectly by 1cm, winning $100,000 each time he breaks the world record by that margin!

Duplantis is a god in the pole vault world. Perhaps he will break more world records in the future since he is still young. No one knows where his limits lie—let’s wait and see!
