But a good competition put together by Atsushi Yamamoto. Now, Ntando Mahlangu, who set a world record for 3061 classification. He speaks four languages. Didn't get out of his wheelchair for the first end years of his life, but hasn't he been making up for it since? Our great try. Ntando Mahlangu, it is fair. He has had a 7.02. That was to smash his own world record for the teeth 61. This is going to be very close. Wait a minute, this is huge! 7.17, he has taken the lead, a world record for Ntando Mahlangu! The man out of Pretoria. The tears are coming. He just has to see off a couple of jumps, from Daniel Wagner and Leon Schaefer. What a moment this would be! He is guaranteed a medal, and with exquisite timing, he has got to the lead. He say in sport you only have to be in front once. Leon Schaefer, though, has a lot of self belief coursing through those veins. Can he find something over 7.17? He might have, it's close! He shakes his head. He will know better than me. Ntando Mahlangu will be so nervous, just strolling around wondering if it is going to be his gold. A fist bump for Leon Schaefer. We want to see the measurements. A 7.12, so that is his best of the Knights. At Paralympic record for him today. He has got to be pleased, but also disappointed. He has had a heck of a competition and are still five centimetres behind Ntando Mahlangu of South Africa. That just leaves Daniel Wagner to come, the 20-year-old Dane. 2017 world champion. He has had a 7.07 today, has a personal best of 7.17. 7.15, actually. That would lead him to centimetres short, he needs a new personal best to get behind Ntando Mahlangu. Great sporting spirit from the South African. Wagner sets off, the last jump of the teeth 63. Well, not much reaction yet from him, it is fair and it is in the area. 7.17 to beat. Ntando Mahlangu does not know, we don't know yet. He can barely look. 6.92. He is short and Daniel Wagner will have to settle for the bronze medal behind Leon Schaefer. Ntando Mahlangu, from South Africa, is going to win it. Great heights. Every effort given by Wagner, but he couldn't get past the 7.07 in his first run, or the 7.17 of the new world record holder, Ntando Mahlangu. Just emphasising that he is a T 61, so a greater impairment than most of the rest of the field. What a story! What a story. Redemption and recovery and new purpose in life given to so many of these athletes through sport. The story is not told better than through Ntando Mahlangu. The camaraderie amongst these men is really admirable. Don't you just wish you could see it everywhere, in every walk of life, in every sport? Ntando Mahlangu is actively encouraging his rivals. South Africa, be proud. Well done Leon Schaefer, at Paralympic record for you. Wagner set at Paralympic record early with a 7.07. My goodness, this arena is seeing some ac
