German commentary, but the video is self-explanatory. Watch out for the demonstration (at 3:30) of a rigid pole bouncing over the bar, illustrating the benefit of maintaining core strength on take-off. Also look out for the slow-motion close-up of Holm’s ankle at 5:30, showing the stresses put through a High Jumper’s ankle joint.
