* MEN / MÄNNER:

* WOMEN / FRAUEN:

On the „king of apparatuses“, too, Frenchmen were first to become successful in the first decade in the history of the WCh: Joseph Martinez, Marcel Lalue, Georges Charmoille. They were followed by the Czechs Joseph Cada and Miroslav Klinger, who, however,

had to share their title in 1922 with unforgotten Slovenian Leon Stukelj and his countryfellow Petar Sumider.
The first US American who qualified for a final on high bar even managed so become world champion at the same time (1979): Kurt Thomas. The Canadian Curtis Hibbert suprised 1987 with powerful style and the silver medal in Rotterdam, Scott Keswick (USA) stood twice among the best 8 of this apparatus and Chainy Umphrey (USA) almost managed to win the bronze medal in 1994 (4^th place). Defending Champion 2001 is the Spaniard Jesus Carballo, the silver medal was won by the Canadian Alexander Jeltkov in Tianjin 1999.
* The 18-years old Greece from Athens, Viasios Maras was the big surprise in Ghent and he won the first high bar gold for his country in the Flandern Arena. He repeated his success in 2002. But twenty five years after Shigeru Kasamatzu (1978) a Japanese won in Anaheim 2003 on high bar, Takehiro Kashima . 2006 Philippe Rizzo is the first Australian who won a title for his country!
* After a very long time of 18 years China won a gold medal again by olympic champion Zou, Kai.
* Rotterdam 2010, from the first up to the next to last exerciese the Dutch local hero Epke ZONDERLAND led, but than came the Chinese ZHANG, Chenglong with the strongest exercise (7.5) and won, but in 2015 in Glasgow King Kohei Uhimura won his first high bar title but altogether his 10th gold at World championships! But 2017 in Montreal it was a little sensation, becaus a newcomer Tin SRBIC won the very first World Title for Croatia ...! Congratulation!
* And 2019 in Stuttgart surprised the Brazilian Arhur MARIANO all the concurrents and became the very first Brazilian high bar champion ....
After ten years (Zou, Kai 2011) a young Chinese HU Xuwei beat the Japanese Olympic champion Hashimoto on his own country ...!
* Liverpool 2021-: Finally another USA victory on high bar: Since 1979 - 43 years after Kurt THOMAS' victory in Fort Worth - Brody MALONE is the first US boy to triumph on the king of the apparatus in Liverpool (2022) - he already won bronze last year.
* In Antwerp 2023, Olympic champion Daiki Hashimoto prevents Croatia's Tin Srbic from winning his second World Championship title of 2017 and finally takes the title after two silver medals!
* At the 2024 Olympics in Paris, only two very young athletes remained on the pole throughout the 8 falls: 20-year-old all-around winner Shinnosuke OKA (JPN) took gold and 17-year-old Angel BARAJAS won silver, the first ever Olympic medal for Colombia!
