This document discusses the evolution of the Fosbury Flop technique in high jumping. It describes how Dick Fosbury developed an unconventional backwards jumping style in the 1960s that allowed him to break records and win gold at the 1968 Olympics, despite initial skepticism. Fosbury experimented with adapting older jumping styles until he found his own technique, which has since become the standard approach in high jumping. The document encourages embracing new ideas even if they seem strange or face criticism, as Fosbury's innovation changed the sport despite early doubts.
