The jump must be repeated if the athlete falls back or takes a step at take - off . Ray Ewry set the world record for the standing long jump ( on 3 September 1904 ) as well as the standing high jump ( 1 . 65 m on 16 July 1900 ) . The record is now held by Norwegian Arne Tvervaag from Ringerike FIK Sportclub , who jumped 3 . 71 metres in Noresund on 11 November 1968 .
