They showed Jenn's second miss and it wasn't even close. Maybe the standards were set wrong?

Stuczynski was arguing about the second miss. She succeeded in getting the attempt put back on, but now has kicked the bar off with her feet on the "second" attempt. One more.

Jenn misses again
This one was not close. Down to a final attempt. She has silver locked up. But its gold she is looking for.

Now the question is, will Isi's ego allow her to settle behind Bolt in accolades or does she jack it up to 5.10 to get better press coverage?

Third miss for Stuczynski. She will settle for silver. A second gold for Isinbayeva.

Any guesses at what Isi will have the bar set at?
