Here's a 3D Animation video that compares an average / regular man VS the long jump World Record, with the male and female world record holder of the event ! (Galina Chistyakova (Galina Čisťakovová)) and Mike Powell from the USA.
The aim is to represent the distances in people's mind, so that we realize how of a feat it is to jump these kind of distances.
Galina Čisťakovová took up athletics in 1972 and was selected for the Soviet national team in 1979. Equally strong in long and triple jump, Chistyakova won most of her international honors in long jump because triple jump was rarely included at major internationals during her prime. She won multiple international long jump titles, including the 1989 World Indoors, 1985/89/90 European Indoors, 1986 Goodwill Games, 1989 World Cup, and the 1985/89 European Cups. In the triple jump, she won gold at the 1990 European Indoor Championships, the first time the event was held at a major international. Čisťakovová set three world records during her career. On 11 June 1988, at the Znamensky Brothers Memorial, she first equaled the world record of 7.45 and then later in that meet jumped 7.52, a mark which, as of 2014, still stands. On 2 July 1989, she set a triple jump world record of 14.52. After being dropped from the Russian national team after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Čisťakovová moved to Bratislava, and gaining Slovakian citizenship in 1996, represented her new country at the 1996 Olympics and 1997 World Championships in both long jumps and triple jump, but with no significant success. She was the CIS triple jump champion in 1992 and Slovakian long jump champion in 1996 and triple jump champion in 1996 and 1998.

Mike Powell was a long jumper who competed at three Olympic Games (1988-96), winning silver medals in 1988 and 1992 behind Carl Lewis, but he is best known for winning the greatest long jump competition in the history of the sport, when he defeated Lewis at the 1991 World Championships in Tokyo. At that meet Powell jumped 8.95 metres (29-4½) to finally break the vaunted world record set by Bob Beamon at the 1968 Olympics. In that competition, Lewis led through the first four rounds, and bettered Beamon’s mark in round four with 8.91 metres, although it was wind-aided. Powell responded with his world record leap in round five. Lewis came back with 8.87 in round five and 8.84 in the final round, but it was not enough and Powell had the gold medal and the world record. He won another gold at the 1993 World Championships and a silver at the 1995 Worlds.
Powell attended UC Irvine and later UCLA, although he did not reach his peak until after college. He was a six-time US Champion in the long jump, winning in 1990 and 1992-96. He was ranked in the world top 10 eleven times between 1985-96, ranking #1 in 1990-91 and 1993-94. In 1992, at a meet in Sestriere, Italy, Powell jumped 8.99 metres (29-5¾), and although wind-aided, it remains (through 2016) the longest jump ever recorded.
