Biography

The 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) tall athlete came second in the Olympic decathlon at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles just behind Daley Thompson. Also in 1984, Hingsen set his personal best in the decathlon at 8832 points – then a world record, and the German record until 2023.[2]

During the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, Hingsen made three false starts in the 100 metre sprint, and he was disqualified from that event – and effectively eliminated from that decathlon competition.[1]
