00:00C'est la fin de la Colossee, et maintenant Michael et Dwight Stones couvrent le Pauvold, et Earl Bell est prêt à faire son dernier essai à 18,8 et un quart.
00:10Il a cléré 18,4 et demi.
00:13En ce moment, il est en lien avec Thierry Vigneron pour la troisième place.
00:17Mike Tully a cléré 18,6 et demi et est en deuxième place et a passé à cette hauteur.
00:23Et Pierre Quignon de France est le leader. Il est le seul homme à avoir cléré 18,8 et un quart.
00:29Il y a un clochon qui tombe, comme Earl Bell.
00:32Les chances pour un medall seraient ici, ou pour un gold ou un silver medall.
00:37Il peut toujours trouver un lien pour le bronze, la façon dont les choses se passent, même s'il l'oublie.
00:41Al is having a terrible streak of luck with the wind.
00:44It's blowing almost a straight headwind right now in his face.
00:47This is it for Earl.
00:50Earl Bell, and he does not make it.
00:53So Earl Bell missing all three attempts at 18,8 and one quarter.
00:58The man from Jonesboro, Arkansas, settling for 18,4 and a half.
01:03And if Vigneron also misses his final attempt at this height,
01:07then Bell will be sharing the bronze medal.
01:13Earl, Al, in the vault, you've got to have good speed,
01:16and you've got to be able to hold high,
01:18and you also have to be able to nail your plant.
01:21You have to have a certain amount of speed yourself,
01:23but your pole also has to have a certain amount of speed
01:25so that you can get up and over the bar and then into the pit.
01:28You'll see here, Earl plants a little bit under,
01:30he's slow getting onto the pole,
01:32and he's going to run out of speed right on top of the bar
01:34and come straight down on top of it.
01:36That's what happens when you have conditions
01:38where the wind is blowing in your face.
01:40You can't bend as stiff a pole as you would like to, to jump high.
01:44Earl Bell has been around.
01:46He was in Montreal at the age of 20,
01:48finished sixth in the 1976 Olympic Games,
01:52and here he now is hoping for at least half a bronze.
01:56Well, he'll get the whole medal, of course,
01:58but he will share third place with Vigneron of France
02:03if Thierry misses his final attempt at 18'8 1⁄4.
02:07Now, what about the strategy with Tully right now, Dwight?
02:10Tully's in a position where he had to pass this height
02:12just because of the fact that he didn't want to take a 2-inch jump
02:15after taking three attempts at 18'8 1⁄4,
02:18but Quinon really jumped nicely at 18'8 1⁄4 on his first attempt.
02:21I thought he was doing his normal bozo move,
02:24keep passing heights and have no chance to make the final height.
02:28He jumped very nicely over 18'8 1⁄4
02:30and now has to feel a tremendous sense of confidence.
02:34He knows that Tully is now on the hot seat.
02:36Tully must make the next height,
02:38and I would assume Quinon will pass 18'10 1⁄2.
02:41He does jump before Tully in the order,
02:44so he is in a position to see what Tully would do
02:46and then make his choice.
02:48I would think that Quinon, after the type of attempt he had at 18'8 1⁄4,
02:51will pass to 19', so Tully is on the hot seat to jump 18'10 1⁄2.
02:55And Vigneron is no slouch himself.
02:57He's jumped 19' a number of times.
02:59He hasn't looked that great at this height,
03:00but you can't count him out.
03:02He's also a real veteran.
03:0424 years old, Vigneron lives in Paris.
03:08World indoor record holder.
03:10Still in the competition are those men,
03:13the two Frenchmen and Mike Tully of the United States.
03:18Vigneron has cleared 18'4 1⁄2,
03:22and this is his third attempt now,
03:24coming up at 18'8 1⁄4,
03:285.70 meters.
03:38His indoor world record is 19'2 1⁄4.
03:443,000 meters women.
03:47Meanwhile, Vigneron,
03:49trying to concentrate with the public address announcer,
03:53announcing the names of some of those in the 3,000-meter women's race,
03:58which is upcoming.
04:00That's the amount of time remaining for Vigneron
04:03to begin to proceed down the runway.
04:05Sixth starting position, the world champion,
04:0918'8 1⁄4 for Vigneron,
04:12and it wobbles, and off it comes.
04:15So he misses, and no gold for him.
04:18He settles for the bronze, along with Earl Bell.
04:21So the two will share third place.
04:24Still Quinan and Tully going, and let's go back to the forum.
