I see a lot of the same questions being asked since this video started to gain more traction lately, and thought I'd compile them with answers here. Q: Where is Tentoglou's 8.60? A: I made this video before his 8.60 jump. I will make an updated video at some point when more athletes surpass 8.50. Read description for updates. Q: Where is Pedroso's 8.96? A: The organizers ruled the wind reading to be invalid and thus it is not recognized as the world record. Whether you agree with that or not is up to you but that is the official stance of World Athletics, the governing body. I'm simply basing this video on their list (see description) and it wouldn't make sense for me to deviate from that by picking and choosing among unrecognized results. Q: Where is Lewis' 8.91 or Echevarria's 8.92/8.83? A: All those jumps were wind aided. This video only takes into consideration jumps with a tail wind of 2.0m/s or less, which is considered a "wind legal" jump. If you got someone else you think has jumped 8.50+ but is not on the list, this is probably why. Q: Why did you include those athletes you didn't find any video for? A: For list completion. It wouldn't make sense in my opinion to exclude them from the list because of that. I also wanted to give you a visual representation of those athletes by finding their best jump possible.

Carl Lewis. Winning the Long Jump in 4 straight Olympics. Insane. What a jumper! 5 of the 8 longest jumps ever, 8 of the 15.

Carl Lewis is the greatest long jumper in history and there is no question of it. Lewis had 5 legal jumps over 8.75m and 8 legal jumps over 8.70 m, while no one else had more than one. Lewis won four straight Olympic gold medals to Powell's zero (both won two WC golds). Powell had 2 legal jumps over 8.66m, while Lewis had 11 of them. Beamon had only one legal jump over 8.5m, which was done at altitude and a barely legal +2.0 wind.
