![]() What’s more, his 6.03m record remains, against the odds. Yet it is worth remembering that coming into Tokyo, Braz was the only athlete to have ever vaulted over six metres at the Olympic Games. A fired-up Nilsen cried out to his coach saying "it's there" after narrowly failing at the same height, but he was ultimately left to settle for silver after three failures. But the American performed superbly in Kendricks' absence, making it over 5.97m - the highest jump of his life - open-mouthed as he hung agonisingly in the air and even clipped the bar on the way down.ĭuplantis replied straight back, leaving the ground with stunning speed and athleticism at 6.02m. After all, the two have been close since their high school days in the United States. In a typical show of camaraderie, Nilsen was quick to congratulate and joke with Duplantis after each clearance. Then came the final few tense and defining moments of the competition. Vaulting sparingly after landing awkwardly on an already injured ankle in warm-up, 2012 Olympic champion Renaud Lavillenie passed his way up to 5.92m but ultimately bowed out with a best of 5.70m. ![]() Showing the sort of form he hasn't showed since that Olympic final five years ago, Braz looked inspired as he cleared the next height of 5.87m - which would eventually seal him bronze - but Karalis and Lisek went out. From then on, it was expected that three-time world medallist Piotr Lisek would go all-out to do better than his fourth place finish at the last Olympics which was won famously on home soil by Thiago Braz of Brazil. Among them, Emmanouil Karalis of Greece, who shouted in delight after equalling his best ever clearance at that height. Ahead of her, the unstoppable talent of Athing Mu, became the first American woman to win gold since Madeline Manning 53 years ago, running a scintillating 1:55.21.īefore that race had started, the temperature of the men's pole vault final had begun to crank up a notch with seven men going over 5.80m. Meanwhile, British teenager Keely Hodgkinson added a sensational Olympic 800m silver to her European indoor title in a final fronted by two 19-year-olds who set remarkable national records. Only once Duplantis had cleared 6.02m on his first attempt - a feat Nilsen could not match - was he assured of adding the much-craved title to his collection that includes the European gold he won in Berlin in 2018. But instead it was his relatively unknown compatriot, the Pan-American Games winner Christopher Nilsen, who asked the toughest questions with a 5.97m lifetime best clearance that would have won all but the last two Olympic gold medals. Most people had metaphorically hung the gold medal around the neck of the 21-year-old following the withdrawal of world champion Sam Kendricks of the USA due to a positive coronavirus on the eve of the Games. World pole vault record-holder Armand Duplantis fulfilled his dream of becoming Olympic champion, but the Swede was pushed harder than expected in a competition where he came agonisingly close to a highest ever 6.19m vault in Tokyo on Tuesday (3).

![]() A year after the film was released, Fair would realize what her thorough job had wrought. In Fair’s history, a railroad magnate founded it on the site of Blair in 1824 so he could exploit limestone deposits in the area (there are no limestone deposits near actual Burkittsville). "I researched the times and the history of Maryland." The real township of Burkittsville was founded by Henry Burkitt in 1810. "I tried to put it in historical context," Fair told The Baltimore Sun in 2000. Fair created dozens of documents for the film, including the "only" copy of a book called The Blair Witch Cult that serves as the inciting incident for the character of Heather’s curiosity in the film. Julia Fair, an employee of Myrick and Sánchez's Haxan Films, was in charge of creating props representing Blair’s witchy history. After purchasing the movie out of the festival, Artisan Entertainment commissioned Myrick and Sánchez to shoot additional footage for both the movie (including mentions of Rustin Parr and four alternate endings) and a fake television documentary that would air on the Sci-Fi Channel (now the uber-hip "SyFy") the week the film was released. Those "buffoons" only doubled down after The Blair Witch Project's Sundance premiere. We locals would appreciate it if they took their fantasies elsewhere." "Those claiming to have done their homework in this regard had better direct their gullible inquiries to the buffoons who crafted this fictional cinematic nonsense. "For the record, there never was a 'Blair Witch,' nor was the vicinity of Burkittsville ever known as 'Blair Township,'" Burkittsville's "unofficial historian" Timothy J. But even an establishing shot has staying power, as those directly and tangentially tied to The Blair Witch Project would eventually discover. Myrick and Sánchez didn't film the Black Hills Forest portion of the movie in Burkittsville because it doesn't have a Black Hills Forest (those sequences were shot in Patapsco Valley State Park).They didn't even find real Burkittsville residents for the testimonials from "Burkittsville residents" - those were shot back in Germantown. Paul's Lutheran Church, where the "witch's first victims were buried." There wasn't much more of the town to show - it only takes 15 minutes to walk from one end of town to the other, and according to the most recent census data, its population is a mere 150. In The Blair Witch Project, the real Burkittsville only appears twice: a "Welcome to Burkittsville" sign and several shots in the cemetery behind St. The only remotely "creepy" aspects of Burkittsville were "Spook Hill," an incline just outside of town where Civil War soldier ghosts supposedly pushed idling cars uphill late at night, and "the Snallygaster," a mythical dragon that once laid an egg in the nearby hills. ![]() Just 50 minutes from The Blair Witch Project crew's Germantown, MD base, the town was the site of the September 1862 Battle of Crampton's Gap, one of the minor skirmishes leading up to the Battle of Antietam, fought three days later. The Blair Witch legend blossomed in Burkittsville because of a cemetery. Locals call Main St "a testament to a simpler way of life." One would barely find a crossed look in Burkittsville, MD, let alone a terrorizing ghoul. And little did residents realize that Blair Witch hoopla would haunt them for the better part of two decades, all the way through to this year's mysterious new sequel.īurkittsville proclaims itself "a town rich in history and surrounded by beauty." In 1999, there were only 75 houses, a post office, and a church within the town limits. ![]() Burkittsville, "home" of the movie's demonic spirit, was an unassuming Maryland town. The thing was, part of the myth was real. The ingenious marketing plan for The Blair Witch Project's theatrical release made fact and fiction even blurrier, turning a $30,000 indie into a $140 million blockbuster phenomenon, giving rise to an entire "found"-footage subgenre in the process, and convincing a portion of the movie-going population that the myth was real. Festival guides made it very clear that the movie, The Blair Witch Project, was, in fact, a work of fiction, but the masquerade made writer-directors Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez the talk of the festival. ![]() Missing-person posters and confused whispers swirled around the 1999 Sundance Film Festival screening of a movie claiming to be a compilation of real video footage shot by three hikers who'd been killed under mysterious circumstances. ![]() Stuck on achievement, don’t know how to do it?

When Bill and Hillary were on the rise, Brock was at the Capital bar, "plotting a campaign of dirty tricks," as he put it in his speech. That a drink shared between Lindsey, Rutherford, and Brock seemed normal enough highlights just how much - how drastically - Brock's orientation to the Clintons has shifted since the '90s. With Brock this time were staffers from Correct the Record, a group he founded last year to respond to attacks on Clinton as she decides whether to run for president. The night before, Brock met Lindsey and Skip Rutherford, the dean of the Clinton School, for the first time at the Capital Hotel, the bar where he once worked stories. "Obviously, I share his enthusiasm for Secretary Clinton." "He said all the right things, I thought," he said in a brief interview after the speech. Lindsey, whose office overlooks the main floor of the Clinton School where Brock delivered his speech, remembers those times as painful - a fact he acknowledged on Tuesday.īut like most friends of the Clintons today, Lindsey now sees Brock differently. Lindsey, a close friend of Bill and Hillary Clinton and the chairman of their family foundation, was one of about 200 people who came to the Clinton School of Public Service on Tuesday afternoon to see David Brock's return to Little Rock.īack in the state for the first time in 19 years, the 51-year-old Brock delivered a speech about his conversion from a fierce Clinton antagonist to a central player in the bid to put Hillary Clinton back in the White House.Īs a former counsel to the Clinton administration, Lindsey lived through the scandals Brock helped ignite two decades ago in the pages of the conservative magazine, the American Spectator.

In 2017, the group was reformed and now features seven guitars. It was a turning point analogous to the birth of rock-and-roll - a moment when black culture, by proxy, suddenly hit the mainstream audience like a ton of bricks. "It was like something today that goes viral," Josephson says. The moment electrified not only the crowd at the Palomar Ballroom, but also millions listening across the country on radio. "And somewhere along the line Gene Krupa said, 'If we're gonna die, let's die playing our own thing.' At this point, Goodman pulls out the Fletcher Henderson arrangements, and pulls out all the stops." "What I've heard happened is, at the beginning of the performance, the band played pretty much stock arrangements, and they were losing the crowd," Josephson says. No matter if the musicians themselves might have preferred to stir things up. "Sweet" music, it was known in the trade - to distinguish it from the "hot" music played uptown by black bands such as Duke Ellington's and Fletcher Henderson's.
