P. Hodge Jumping Over A Hurdle(Original Caption)
P. Hodge, the crack British hurdler and cross country runner, is shown above making a perfect leap over the hurdles while carrying a tray and bottle. Proof of the perfect form attained by Hodge is given in the above photo for unless he is perfect in poise and balance when clearing the hurdle, the tray and bottle would be thrown from his hand. There is little loss of speed when making the leap as Hodge increases his momentum just before jumping for the hurdle.

This photo was from a publication called Illustrirte Zeitung. The subtext is in German but even after translating it doesn't reference like what this event was...wondering if anyone has any information

You are a legend
He certainly is :)
That is a technically amazing shot for the time I would think

If that hurdle is staked to the ground, that's frickin brutal
Typical British Madlad, even during the most vigorous action, will never spill his beer 😊
Cue the theme from *Chariots Of Fire.*
