And, at the time, this man didn’t like it…
That was the way to do it at the time…..
High School & High Jump Problematic
KUNG FU STYLE
HE COULDN’T COMPETE!
2 GOOD THINKING
Outside the box!
This man had invented his Flop in high school, when he discovered that, though he was terrible at the scissors-kick, the straddle and the belly-roll, if he stretched out on his back and landed headfirst, he could jump higher than anyone on his high-school track team
THAT IS GOOD THINKING
OLD SCHOOL
FOSBURY FLOP !!!!!
Going backwards? Really?
3 SOLUTION
Every great and deep difficulty bears in itself its own solution. It forces us to change our thinking in order to find it.
FOSBURY FLOP in action!
At the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, Fosbury took the gold medal and set a new Olympic record at 2.24 meters (7 ft 4¼ in),[7]
displaying the potential of the new technique.
