Vilho “Ville” Tuulos (FIN) had the longest mark prior to the Olympics, with 15.48 (50-9½), the second best ever produced. In round one, Luis Brunetto (ARG) jumped 15.425 (50-7¼), bettering his PR and South American record by 27 centimetres. In round two, Anthony “Nick” Winter set an Australian record with 15.18 (49-9¾). He bettered that in round six, with 15.525 (50-11¼), also bettering the world record to win an very unlikely gold medal.
