    Swedish Pole Vaulter Mondo Duplantis has done it again.

    At the Paris Olympics final on Monday, the all-time great vaulter broke his own world record — clearing a height of 6.25 meters.

    The packed crowd at Stade de France exploded as Duplantis cleared the bar and made history. This is the ninth time he's reset the world record bar, and the eighth time he's broken his own world record.

    This title marks his second Olympic gold medal in a row, following up his win at the 2020 Tokyo Games.

    Images of the stunning accomplishment are all over social media as fans react to the world record.

    "MONDO DUPLANTIS ENDS THE NIGHT WITH A NEW WORLD RECORD," the NBC Olympics account wrote on X.

    "Gravity? Never heard of it," the Olympics' official account added.

    "Mondo Duplantis is MY goat," another fan said.

    "THE CROWD GOES WILD!! 6.25m MONDO DUPLANTIS BREAKS THE POLE VAULT WORLD RECORD AGAIN!!!" another wrote.

    Duplantis, 24, is also a two-time World Champion.
