Dick Fosbury impressed the world by winning the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City with a new technique, later called Fosbury-Flop or simple Flop. Until that time the straddle technique was the dominant style in the high jump. Fifty years later, at the World Championships in Malaga in 2018, twelve high jump world champions used the flop. Exceptions were M65, M80 and M90.
