1939

Viktor Bolshov (Виктор Большов; born 23 May 1939) is a retired Soviet high jumper.

He competed in the 1960 Olympics finishing fourth behind his teammates Robert Shavlakadze, world record holder Valery Brumel and American John Thomas.

During the course of the competition all four equaled the Olympic record, Shavlakadze, the first jumper in the order set the record first.

Based on current rules, Bolshov would have tied Thomas for the bronze medal, but at the time jumpers were penalized for the number of attempts and Bolshov took seven attempts during the competition to Thomas' five.

Bolshov is married to Valentina Maslovskaya, a Soviet sprinter who also competed at the 1960 Olympics; their daughter Olga Bolşova became an Olympic high jumper.

According to Valery Brumel's wife, Vladimir Vysotsky originally devoted his "Song about high jumper" (Песенка про прыгуна в высоту) to Bolshov.

Later, when Brumel heard the song, he "decided" that it is about him, which Vysotsky did not mind.

1961

In 1961, Bolshov jumped 2.16 m in Grozny, at the time he was the number three high jumper in the world.

1968

Bolshov continued jumping, returning to the Olympics in 1968, but not making the final.

1974

In 1974, he equalled his 2.16 at the Soviet National Championships in Moscow, at age 35 setting the Masters M35 World Record.

The record would stand for 17 years.
