Fans wonder how Noah Lyles can jump vertically, specifically how high he can jump in the air. Although Lyles, the gold medalist in the 100-meter dash at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, is a sprinter, he is also known for the impressive jump he performs during his pre-routine. Since sprinters need a lot of explosive power to accelerate off the starting blocks, many have a fantastic jump. Here is a rough calculation of the vertical jump height for Noah Lyles.

A very conservative estimate of Noah Lyles' vertical jump is at least 3 feet. This estimate may seem low, but that's because a "vertical jump" is a specific measurement that must be tested for verification.

When we talk about how high Noah Lyles can jump off the ground, by measuring how high his feet come into the air, it’s about 6 feet. The photo above posted by Track & Field Gazette on X of FFAthlétisme shows Lyles jumping during the 2024 World Indoor Championships in Athletics in March 2024. The photo shows his feet jumping almost as high as Jeff Erius of France (left), who is 6.17 feet.
