The fact that Kemp is the current bahamian record holder is indisputable. But does it belong in an article about Donald Thomas? I'll let it stay for now, but will remove it in a few days if nobody objects. W-dahl (talk) 14:56, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thomas is pretty well known among high jumpers for not using spiked shoes. The first time I saw him was in the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne and I was gobsmacked that he was jumping in flat shoes. As far as I know he still does. He must hold some sort of record as I cannot remember any other jumper going that high without wearing spikes. Flanker235 (talk) 22:03, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
