Leo Neugebauer breaks decathlon collegiate record at 2024 outdoor championships

[@GQStatus_42]

The way he crossed that finish line 😂

[@annonymous6827]

Very impressive! That's a hybrid athlete right there

[@nathandean5869]

6-7 in high jump at 240 lbs is crazy

[@joseppedaia3673]

I know, we're talking NCAA, but high jump heights in foot an inches is just... weird :D

[@CCisballing]

It's not really crazy when you acknowledge the fact that Leo is 6-7 himself.🤷‍♂

[@jahysontimin]

@@CCisballing you must not know how jumping works or if u do u gotta b terrible😂

[@mogrowneyiv7306]

Bro I was 5’6 in high school and my first ever meet I scored 5’6. Jumping your height is like baseline. I hardly trained. I just hung out with the pole vaulters (stoners) and lifted weights.

[@J0HNTHOMPSON-hj6kz]

The most outstanding athletic performance of the year to date!! TOPS!!

[@okokokokok930]

Go Leo 🇩🇪🇩🇪

running a 48 400 at 240 lbs just blows my mind

Josh farmer getting the call out in the 400m. Great finish to his career at UCI.

Never seen anyone score 1000+ points in discus.

[@brendancroft5290]

He did break the dec wr for discus

[@natereater]

Because he’s the first

[@ysamgreen]

OMG my new favorite athlete!! Go Leo!!! Stay grounded!!!

[@LeoTheGermanDaily]

Congratulations, Leo!!! Very impressive indeed. Well done! 🇩🇪🇺🇸

[@cadenzar8152]

He can have a world record with only an improvement in the javelin. I'd wager with his strength he could throw 70+ meters with good technique

[@socman3988]

Totally agreed. His Javelin is very low with such height and strength. It doesn't make sense his discus PR is more than his Javelin PR, lol. He should be able to throw 70-75 meters. If he is able to work on that and able to throw 70+m the Decathlon WR is in reach. He is still very young so its very possible.

[@MattRose30000]

"Jack Turner, the Brit, who has his shades on" Of course he isn't used to sunny weather 😂

[@MaLanick87]

He is German who is studying in Texas, starting for his Texan college, so both is correct.

[@AntalBencze-x2w]

If he can maintain his form he will be the next Olympic champion and possibly the new wold record holder. A stellar performer without body decoration.

Outstanding!

[@kobskobaine3454]

nah man is this the reason he doesnt compete at the european championship?

[@chemistrypodcasts]

I'll admit that I don't know much about Leo and I don't know about track and field, but it just seems to me that if this guy would strap on some shoulder pads and put on a helmet, he could be of huge help to the Longhorn football team or an NFL team for that matter.

[@AntalBencze-x2w]

There are other sports than football.

[@danieljones8658]

ngl they really should look into switching the 1500 out in the decathalon.. maybe add in weight throw or 200m but its really embarrassing for distance running to watch this.

[@denjx_noah]

I disagree, the 1500m being in the decathlon makes the whole event the most complete and challeging possible from every standpoint, taking out the 1500 would get rid of most of the endurance component of the decathlon. And since the decathlon as an event is meant to be a pure test of athleticism, it is important to have events that cover every type of athleticism. I say this as a decathlete myself, and I don't mind giving it my all in the 1500m even though it is not my strongest event.

[@jonahmays]

Yeah I think it should stay

[@VeridicusMaximus]

Absolutely not! There is already two sprint events (100m and 110mH). Not to mention the scoring tables favor the speed events and the jumps over throwing and others. Never add the 200m. This is supposed to be an ALL AROUND event.

[@MaLanick87]

I don't think you have understood what the decathlon is all about... It is about who is the best allrounder and that includes distance running as well. It is not about who is the best in every single event and who can compete with the specialists. That would be impossible. Nobody can be on an expert level in every single event and I also don't get why that is supposed to be "embarressing"... They are still pretty good, even at their weaker events...

[@natereater]

Coldest take in history.

[@nathanclifton3200]

He ran that 1500 smart find someone to run behind and stare at their feet
