Pole vault has been contested at the Modern Olympics since the first Modern Games in 1896 in Athens. The first Olympic champion in pole vault was Welles Hoyt of the United States with a vault of 3.30 meters (10 feet, 10 inches). Compare that with 2008 Olympic champion Steve Hooker of Australia who won with a vault of 5.96 meters (19 feet, 6 1/2 inches).
Pole jumping competitions were known to the ancient Greeks, as well as the Cretans and Celts. It has been a full medal event at the Olympic Games since 1896 for men and since 2000 for women.

This question can be answered in two ways. In 1954, Louise Boyd privately chartered a DC-4 and crew to fly her over the North Pole. Which made her the first woman to be flown over a pole. Or In 1971, Sheilia Scott flew her single-engined Piper Comanche registered G-ATOY and named Myth Too, single handedly over the North Pole, Making her the first woman to fly over the North Pole.

The "stick" itself is just called a pole or a pole vaulting pole. The poles are named by their length and maximum weight it can hold. For instance, a pole that is 12 feet tall and can hold a pole vaulter with a maximum weight of 130 pounds is a 12 foot 130 pole.
