BOB BEAMON

Olympic Champion

In 1968, at just 22 years old, Bob Beamon made history in

Mexico City with a leap that shattered the Olympic long jump.

record. His jump of 29' 2 1/2" exceeded the previous world

and Olympic record by an incredible 1.8 feet-a record that

remains unbeaten nearly six decades later. While many

events from that era have faded into history, Beamon's feat endures as a symbol of triumph over adversity. Growing up in NYC's Jamaica, Queens, Beamon faced numerous challenges but chose to overcome his doubts and

fears, daring to dream the impossible. He charted his own course, following the rhythm of his own internal music.

Today, at age 78, Beamon has leapt into a new chapter of his

life, channeling his energy into his lifelong passion:

percussion. With the help of NYC's Hip-Hop jazz band, The B.O.N.E. Squad, Beamon has become a conga player. The B.O.N.E. Squad, led by drummer Stix Bones, is a local

institution of funk, groove, and soul. Known for their dynamic

performances, they have opened for legendary artists such

as Charlie Wilson, Chaka Khan, SWV, The O'Jays, Babyface, and Cedric The Entertainer. They have a standing gig as the

opening act at a theater in the Bronx.

See why The Washington Post, Good Day New York, and other

respected media outlets are buzzing about Bob Beamon and

The B.O.N.E. Squad. Let us know if they can showcase to your

audience what makes this collaboration so Olympic!
