[edit] Records indoor vs. outdoor
The records 4,83 (Donetsk, Feb 15, 2004), 4,85 (Athens, Feb 20, 2004) and 4,86 (Budapest, Mar 06, 2004) were not only valid as indoor world records, but were also valid as (outdoor) world records. This is due to IAAF regulation 260.6.a according to which "world records (as opposed to indoor world records) can be set at a facility 'with or without' a roof". This applies for results starting from year 2000. Therefore the term "outdoor world record" is somewhat misleading as the record can be achieved indoors.
