More should be known of Da Silva – no-one in history has broken the Triple Jump World Record more times and he took the event far beyond 16 metres at a time when sports science was in its infancy…cinder tracks etc. Such are his achievements, we’ve dedicated a whole chapter to him in TRIPLE JUMP TRAILBLAZERS and celebrate his achievements in history to rank #3 all-time! 🙌
