Bubka

What is Bubka?


1.

Etymology: Sergei Bubka, the Ukrainian world record holder in the Pole Vault was known for breaking his own world record over a dozen times by just one centimeter at a time -- even though most experts believed he could have gone over 5 or 10 cm higher. His motivation each time he did it by 1 cm was that he got a US$1 million bonus from his sponsor NIKE.

The term now can be used as a verb or noun.

1. Bubka: to break one's own record by the smallest increment in order to ensure that one can do it again and again.

Other forms:

past tense: Bubkaed

present continuous tense: Bubkaing

He clearly is Bubkaing the record for more bonus money each month.

She Bubkaed the world record again.
