It looks like Armand Duplantis is still celebrating winning the gold medal in the pole vault competition at the Paris 2024 Olympics and breaking the world record.

The Swedish athlete jumped a distance of 25.6 meters to make a big splash at the Stade de France in Paris, with celebrations continuing for a long time from the evening to the morning.
“I’m very happy, my family is here, some of my close friends,” Duplantis told reporters after breaking the world record for the ninth time. I will enjoy this to the fullest.” The party will be huge, I won’t get much sleep, and I’ll have a great time.”
Duplantis was eager to enjoy the prime of his successful career. After the Olympic 100m medal ceremony, which was completed by champion Noah Lyles, who won an exciting photo-decided race, the stage was set for another big star to shine in Paris.
In the last competition of the day, he faced Lyles, winning by another wide margin. “I did it in front of the most amazing crowd I’ve ever jumped in front of,” Duplantis said. “The atmosphere was really high, it was like being at an American football game.”
