Good video. The kid at 6:10 did everything possible to ensure he broke a pole. Perfect example of unsafe vaulting.

Fred Arnold is God

pole vault is dangerous sport which requires risks (sometimes) but what gives you the same feeling and doesn't require a bit o crazy? :P

I now have the Vertical Minds DVD for sale. If your interested, message me on youtube with your email address and I'll send you an order form!

god i can't wait for my season to start, i get chills just watching these videos im not even really good, but it's so damn fun!

Ha thats my sister Melinda Owen (University of Idaho)flippin like someone who got hit by a car at 6:29 in the video :)

very very good video... anyone who brings fred arnold into the mix knows PVing!

really good vid...pole vaulting is only dangerous if you dont know what your doing. Ive never broken or pole or gotten seriously injured but ive gotten hit in the balls about 5 times

so true vaulting is nothin like football you go to a meet and evryone their is calm and respectful. its just a flatout fun and relaxing but also pressureing sport and thats alsom. and in football your always under some kind of pressure. nice vid. peace...

This is a great video I would have to say pole volting is the best thing in the world, I wish my personal best was some of theirs
