Sporting arena is wide and performing well at the highest level is a mission accomplished. Paralympics Gold and bronze is a boon to our differently abled sportsmen as they made it big in a big platform. Mariyappan Thangavelu won gold in the men’s T-42 high jump final and Varun Bhati reacts after winning bronze in the same event. It is indeed a dream come true performance and Indian flag was flying high with their stupendous show. The 21 year old cleared 1.86m edging out US World Champion in style. It was grand finale for the duo. Nothing succeeds like success and the high jumpers did make it superhuman effort. Catch them young is true in Paralympics as well and both Thangavelu and Bhati proved a point in a high jump even at the world level.
