Buschbaum gewann im Stabhochspringen zweimal Bronze bei Freiluft-Europameisterschaften und belegte bei Olympia in Sydney Platz sechs. kündigte er seine Geschlechtsanpassung an.

"Courage is the road to freedom," said a recent diary entry on his Web site. "I woke up in complete freedom today. The sky is wide open."

Buschbaum is not ready yet for interviews as "I am still flying on my clouds of freedom and won't land until the end the November, at the earliest."
