At the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games, Dongdong Di shattered the T11 men’s long jump world record, landing an incredible 6.85 meters. He surpassed the previous record of 6.73 meters, set by Lex Gillette in 2014—a record that had stood for a decade. T11 athletes are completely blind, competing with the help of a guide who shouts commands as they sprint toward the takeoff board. There is no visual target. No margin for error. Just rhythm, timing, and complete trust. And still, he launched further than any T11 athlete in history. This wasn’t just a jump. It was the result of thousands of silent hours. Of failing, falling, and coming back stronger. No shortcuts. No easy path. Just discipline, grit, and relentless drive. Most people wait for perfect conditions. Dongdong Di ran blind—and made the impossible look effortless. This is what happens when belief meets preparation. This is what happens when you refuse to accept limits. World record. Paris. 6.85 meters. Etched into history. @ghostofascension
