Result

10/11 August 2006

The world record holder and Olympic champion Roman Šebrle was able to defend his title from 2002 successfully and largely safely. Behind him, the experienced Hungarian Attila Zsivóczky came in second in an exciting battle for medals, mainly because Alexander Pogorelow once again destroyed all of his chances in the 1,500 meter run that he had previously laboriously built up. Of the three German participants, the youngest, Pascal Behrenbruch, turned out to be the (nerve) strongest. In the final 1500 meter run, however, he stayed 22 seconds above his best time and therefore missed the chance for a medal. So he had to wait six years before winning the title at the 2012 European Championships . The competition was interrupted several times due to heavy rain showers, which significantly impaired the jumping disciplines in particular.
