Stefan Taylor: Nearly missed coach transfer to the airport because of Da Silva's amazing effort. Best moment of the games so far!!
Ian Bradley: Occasionally in sport situations arise that allow individuals to transcend what's possible, congrats Thiago Braz da Silva
Jonathan Chase: This pole vault shows the benefit of moving Olympics around. The lifting power of a home crowd shouldn't be underestimated.

Renaud Lavillenie can't make it at 6.08 and IT IS GOLD FOR BRAZIL!
He played that jump-off tactically brilliantly. Worked the crowd, played it like a fiddle. And found new depths of talent and resilience.
A superb moment of these Games!

Great moment. Great moment. Brazil don't have many track and field medal hopes. That is massive.
