The individual jumping at the 1968 Summer Olympics took place on 23 October. The event was open to men and women.[1]

Competition format

There were two rounds. The top 18 pairs advanced to the second round. The total score from both rounds determined final rankings. There was a jump-off for the bronze medal, with the time in the jump-off used as a tie-breaker if riders were still tied (as all were).

Results

42 riders competed.[2] Broome's horse Mr. Softee would later appear in the Monty Python's Flying Circus episode "Archaeology Today" "Trailer sketch" in 1970.
