She set the record in May 1986 at 21 feet 5 ¾ inches. Her record has stood for over 30 years. This is her story.

After it was published, the Calaveras County fair started the Jumping Frog Jubilee™, which has run since 1928.Over the years, the frogs have jumped farther. Why? Scientists say it’s because of the frog jockeys, the men and women who catch and jump the frogs. Read this extraordinary story of a man and a frog.
