Biography
Waldemar Steffen was a German track and athlete who participated at the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris. He finished fourth in the high jump, eighth in the long jump, and competed in the triple jump, the standing triple jump, but his results are unknown. His only other known accepted result was the 1896 German high jump title. The 1900 results in high jump and long jump were also classified as German Championships. Steffen also jumped 1.84 m on the ice rink at Dammtor in Hamburg, but since he probably jumped over a cord, this mark was not recognized as a German record.
Personal Bests: HJ - 1.84 (1898); LJ - 6.30 (1900).
