Outrageous!!!

Anyone watching the Olympics tonight?

I can't believe it. Steve Hooker (an Aussie) has just taken the gold in the pole vault!!!

5 metres 90. Wow!

He really is the 'rocket man'. The first Aussie to win gold in track and field in decades.

Definitely one of my favourite moments of the last few weeks of these Games.

And then goes and breaks the Olympic record with a vault of 5 metres 96!

OMG! What a night

[Ian Robinson]

Yep . Not a bad effort .

How about how pissed off the yanks are at the chinese gymnasts .... talk about a terminal case of sour grapes syndrone ?

And the upsets in the running - serious cases of battonophobia - or butter fingers in the relays.
