«...Fourth on the start was Gering. He was flying and flying, very high and landed in a perfect position. We all knew something extraordinary happened. People responsible for distance measuring didn't have numbers, they figured out little later that he landed at 118 metres. After WR, when extatic crowd finally calmed down, competition continued with Paul Schneidenbach who had landed at 101 metres, after him Hans Lahr landed at 111 metres, then after that Paul Krauß at 112 metres and the very last was Franz Maier who crashed at 109 metres.»

Ski jumping is a winter sport in which athletes compete on distance and style in a jump from a ski jumping hill. The sport has traditionally focused on a combination of style and distance, and it was therefore early seen as unimportant in many milieus to have the longest jump.[2] The International Ski Federation (Fédération Internationale de Ski; FIS) has opposed the increase in hill sizes, and do not recognize any world records.[3]
Since 1936, when the first jump beyond 100 metres (330 ft) was made, all world records in the sport have been made in the discipline of ski flying, an offshoot of ski jumping using larger hills where distance is explicitly emphasised. As of March 2017, the longest jump ever recorded in any official competition is 253.5 metres (832 ft), set by Stefan Kraft at Vikersundbakken in Vikersund, Norway. As of March 2024, the women's world record stands at 230.5 m (756 ft), set by Silje Opseth also in Vikersund.
On 23–24 April 2024, Ryōyū Kobayashi made four successful attempts to unofficially break the world record on a temporary ski flying hill at Hlíðarfjall in Akureyri, Iceland. The purpose-built hill was constructed by Red Bull for promotional purposes. On the first day, Kobayashi jumped 256 m (840 ft). The following day he improved it to 259 m (850 ft), 282 m (925 ft), and finally 291 m (955 ft).[4]
