What Will Be the Longest Standing World Record of Suit Age?

I find it rather akin to what happened in the long jump at the '68 Olympics. Beamon buried the record and most say it was due to the altitude and the fact that the wind was a barely legal 2.0 m/s. It wasn't until 1991 that this was finally taken down(Still the record, BTW). Interesting that the current woman's mark in the long jump is from 1988. -LBJ
