Brumel’s High Jump Record Questioned in Moscow
Valery Brumel cleared 2.23 meters in Moscow breaking the 7-3% mark, a height not matched in US rules which require rounding to 7-3% inches. The discrepancy stems from conversion to inches and the AAU standards, leaving Brumel's mark universally recognized outside the United States. Brumel and Thomas are set for a Moscow duel at the United States Soviet meet July 15-16 after recent indoor clashes.
