I had no idea prostitutes were so adept with poles:
The irony is that Hooker is a dude.

BEIJING - Steve Hooker of Australia has won the gold medal in the men's pole vault, Australia's first in track and field at the Beijing Olympics.
Hooker cleared 5.90 (19-4 1/4) on his third attempt in Friday night's final, immediately after world indoors champion Yevgeniy Lukyanenko of Russia had failed at his last attempt on the same height and took silver at 5.85 (19-2 1/4).
Hooker was attempting an Olympic record 5.96 (19-6 1/2).
Denys Yurchenko of Ukraine cleared 5.70 (18-8 1/4) and still was eligible at greater heights but withdrew with an injury and settled for bronze.
The irony is that Hooker is a dude.
