Well firstly pole vault is probably the most fun to watch and most technical out of all of them as it requires using an object to reach higher ground and over the pole. High jump I like to watch and is probably my second fav as I just like watching people go high into the air and see which heights they can reach. Long jump is my 3rd fav it reminds me of when I was at my primary school were on sports day and P. E it would be my fav event as I used to love testing how far I could go and inviting techniques to go farther. Finally triple jump is just sort of meh personally for me but that's just me!

I definitely agree that pole vault is the most complicated and it's very hard to learn! I find triple jump and pole vault most entertaining (probably because I am a triple jumper myself) and I also know how hard pole vault is first hand, so I find it impressive and fun to watch.

Ah cool! Well I agree that these events are impressive and need masterful technique. I'm actually not too into sports but I just like these events in particular so I thought I would comment!

I think pole vault is the technical most complicated to learn. It's impressive to watch, but i have never attempted to do it myself.
I am not really good in the other jumping events either, i don't have the needed fast-twitch muscles and body control.
I am better with endurance and distance.
