Aleksander Klumberg was an Estonian decathlete. He competed in several events at the 1920 and 1924 Olympics and won a bronze medal in the decathlon in 1924. In 1922 he became the first official world record holder in the decathlon, albeit with a performance inferior to the Stockholm 1912 series of Jim Thorpe. Wikipedia
Born: 17 April 1899, Tallinn, Estonia
Sports and Olympic Museum opened in 1963 at Tartu, Estonia.
