Mathematical oddity clouds Brumel Thomas high jump records
United States rules block Brumel and Thomas from recognizing a 2.23 meter mark as a world record. Brumel jumped 2.23 in Moscow but US tables convert to 7-3% inches, while Thomas’ 2.22 would convert to 7-3% under some rules. AAU chief Dan Ferris notes conversion limits hinder official recognition. Brumel and Thomas prepare for Moscow showdown amid record debates.
