In pole vault, how many failed attempts are allowed before disqualification?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 3.
In pole vaulting, an athlete is eliminated after three consecutive failures. These failures can occur at a single height or across multiple heights if the athlete chooses to "pass" to a higher level after a miss. Once three consecutive misses are recorded, the athlete can no longer compete, and their best successfully cleared height determines their final ranking.
