It's not about how high you jump. It's about how high everyone else jumps.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
High jump is such a mental thing. It's you against the bar. It's something that a lot of people struggle with, and people experience slumps and plateaus because of it.
I was put in a position with a man that, whenever he would call me at work or at home, work-related, he would say jump and I'd say how high and I would jump.
I can't jump the highest. I'm obviously not the biggest, not the strongest.
You were about five feet short of a ten feet jump?
Growing up as a high jumper, I said if I could ever jump 2.40, I'd be pretty satisfied with my career. It's definitely a barrier for high jumpers.
Scientists have proven that it's impossible to long-jump 30 feet, but I don't listen to that kind of talk. Thoughts like that have a way of sinking into your feet.
The lower you fall, the higher you'll fly.
There's high, and there's high, and to get really high - I mean so high that you can walk on the water, that high-that's where I'm going.
If you think, 'I'm jumping out of a plane at 30,000 feet!' you're not going to do it. But if you just jump out, then you'll have an interesting ride.
When you jump for joy, beware that no one moves the ground from beneath your feet.
