Duplantis, thrilled with his record: “My childhood dream has come true”

Date:

Swede Armand Duplantis took a while to process his happiness at the mega-record with which he decorated his second straight Olympic gold on Monday. “This is the biggest dream of my life, a dream of my childhood.”

“I still haven’t assimilated how fantastic that moment was. It’s one of those things that doesn’t seem real, an out-of-body experience. It’s still hard for me to assimilate. My biggest dream since I was a child was to break the world record at the Olympic Games and I did it.” I have complied,” said Duplantis in a press conference.

A record that made him feel like a movie star. In all other competitions in the stadium, he was the center of attention for minutes that seemed like hours.

“I tried to clear my head as much as I could. People lost their minds. It was as loud as a football game. I have experience in stadiums with a hundred thousand spectators but I was not the center of attention. I was trying to channel the energy that everyone gave me and they gave me a lot,” he said.

“I think I can do it again but right now I don’t care. I’m very happy, I’m going to enjoy this a lot. I have my family here, my girl, some of my best friends. I’ m going to enjoy it to the fullest,” he summed up. ‘Mondo’, now just thinking about a well-deserved mini-vacation.
