Szerhij Bubka
Szerhij Bubka is a legendary former pole vaulter from Ukraine, known for his remarkable achievements in athletics. Born on December 4, 1963, he became the first athlete to clear the six-meter barrier in pole vaulting and set a total of 35 world records throughout his illustrious career, including 17 outdoor and 18 indoor records. Bubka won an Olympic gold medal in 1996 and claimed six World Championship titles, making him one of the most decorated athletes in the sport's history.
