Duplantis, 24, collected gold as he cleared six metres and settled for a record 6.25m.

His efforts saw American Sam Kendricks settle for silver while Greece’s Emmanouil Karalis took home bronze.

Duplantis followed up his celebrations with an appearance on Eurosport this morning.

The athlete sounded very groggy as he answered questions and looked worse for wear.

During the interview the Swede admitted that he had not had a lot of sleep after his heroics.

He said: “It doesn’t feel quite real, honestly

“I’m still on cloud nine. I’m on a bit of a lack of sleep right now, but other than that I feel amazing.

“It’s weird, hard to comprehend, I guess. For me, I just try to jump as best as I can and I know that I can do it at a very high level.

“For everything that happened the way that it did, I’ve basically visualised this moment since I was a little kid, jumping in my parent’s backyard.

“For it to actually happen, Olympics final, world record, even when I was sitting at the back of the runway, I feel like I’ve been there a thousand times.

“It’s crazy. When you have such big dreams, the way that they can actually happen when you believe in yourself, it’s weird almost when it actually comes true.

“It’s better than anything I’ve ever done. It’s the day I won Olympic gold and broke the world record in the Olympic final.

“It’s the biggest stage possible for a track and field athlete.”

Duplantis went on to insist that he will continue to give his best efforts.

He added: “I mean, I’m going to jump as high as I possibly can every single day.

“It doesn’t matter when it is and obviously when it’s the Olympics, I’m going to give 110 per cent on the track.”
