Giuseppe Gibilisco

Giuseppe "Peppe" Gibilisco (Italian pronunciation: [dʒuˈzɛppe dʒibiˈlisko]; born 5 January 1979) is an Italian coach and former pole vaulter, who won the 2003 World Championships with a personal best of 5.90 m. He followed this with a bronze medal in the 2004 Olympics.

He won twelve medals (ten of these at senior level), at the International athletics competitions.

In 2007, Gibilisco was suspended by the FIDAL (Italian Athletics Federation) with a two-year ban, due to his involvement in the "Oil for Drugs" case and his relation with suspect doctor Carlo Santuccione, although he had never tested positive, but two months after the Board of Appeals reverses the ruling and decide for acquittal.

[6] In 2012 he jumped 5:52 m in Liévin, France indoor and, as a result of an injury, not disputing the outdoor season thus losing the possibility to participate in his fourth Olympics.

On 29 January 2017 he made his Bobsleigh World Cup debut at Königssee as a brakeman for the four-man team of veteran pilot Simone Bertazzo, finishing in 25th place.
