Thank you Dana, that was fun. It shows degenerates aren't new, nor all male.
I think we've seen this before, a camera mounted on the front of a streetcar in San Francisco. But a film archivist has cleaned it up, added sound, and nailed the date to April 14th, 1906, when driving was fun. Quote:

Which one did you just watch?
When you quote a post with a video that means when you open the thread the video has to load twice slowing the loading.

I hate Facebook video links, but here I am posting one. I tried to find this on youtube, but failed.
a new boys pole vaulting record in the USA recently. In slow motion. It's astounding. https://www.facebook.com/polevaults/...5776709887268/ |

They don't have worry about pushing the pole back so it won't hit the bar anymore. The bar looks like it's 4 feet higher than the length of the pole.

I've seen several articles on how to grab videos off facebook but didn't read them because I don't go there.

...the amazing part is the transfer of energy into motion: he propels nearly straight up, "jack-knifes" his lower body over the top of the pole, and then "snakes" that motion upwards, "whipping" his upper body out of the way.

In my searches on Youtube for a better version of the video I found a few pole vaulters with the same unusual last name. It's got to be a family thing. They probably have a practice setup in their back yard.
