Kallur tokhyls Duplantis: "Fun to experience this"

The fact that the former hurdler Susanna Kallur is impressively impressed by Sweden's big pole jump star Armand Duplantis is immediately noticeable.

- It's incredibly fun to follow his competitions. So how he jumps. Some hopes are so high that you let your imagination go away and wonder how high can it really be? No, it's so fun to be alive and follow this now.

Kallur herself holds the world record of 60 meters hurdles (at the time of 7.68) but says herself that she has no tip to give to Duplantis to keep the level up.

- I do not think so. So he has achieved far greater success than I did even though he is so young. He has experience, though he is young and fresh, what a fucking combo, says Kallur and then states that she can give no tips:

- No, he has good support and everything like that. There is no old aunt to come and tell him what to do.

Another Swedish former elite freighter, cross country skater Michel Tornéus, is on the same track.

- How to give someone who has hit a world record tip really? It is not possible. He has done better than I did, says Tornéus, laughing before coming on:

- I just hope he manages to take a second and enjoy it too. Because it becomes very easy to be inside it and to just check the box and move on to the next target.

How high do you think he can jump?

- I dare not put any restrictions on the guy. He has already set a world record so regardless he is the best in the world of all time. But it is clear that there is more in that body definitely. Then how loud? We shall see.

- It's so cool to see and so incredibly inspiring. I'm just happy for his sake that he dominates out there and now we hope it carries all the way to Tokyo.
