Men's pole vault world record progression

Not to be confused with Men's pole vault indoor world record progression.

The first world record in the men's pole vault was recognized by the International Association of Athletics Federations in 1912.[1]

As of April 20, 2024, 80 world records have been ratified by the IAAF (now World Athletics) in the event. Since 2000, World Athletics makes no distinction between indoor and outdoor settings when establishing pole vault world records. This new rule was not applied retroactively. The introduction in the early 1950s of flexible vaulting poles made from composites such as fiberglass or carbon fiber allowed vaulters to achieve greater height.[1][2][3] The present record of 6.26 m (20 ft 6+1⁄4 in) was set by Armand Duplantis, competing for Sweden at the Silesia Diamond League.[4]

Notes:
  1. ^ The numbered occurrence of the athlete breaking the world record, in other words "#7" would indicate the 7th time the athlete broke the world record.
  2. ^ "From 2000, IAAF Rule 260.18s (formerly 260.6.a) was amended to say world records (as opposed to indoor world records) can be set in a facility 'with or without a roof.' So far, only one event - the women's pole vault - has been affected by this change, which was not applied retrospectively."[6] Sergey Bubka set an indoor record of 6.15 m (20 ft 2 in) on February 21, 1993, in excess of the outdoor record, before this rule came into effect. Lavillenie's indoor world record was set after the rule came into effect, and thus since it exceeded Bubka's 6.14 m (20 ft 1+1⁄2 in) set outdoors, it also became the world record, the first indoor mark to do so in this event.
