Didn’t finish:
Janek Õiglane (EST), Risto Lillemets (EST), Markus Rooth (NOR).

Historical note: Makenson Gletty's European bronze medal was saved by one of the strangest moments in decathlon history. A faulty starting speaker left the Frenchman stranded in his blocks during the 110 m hurdles, and he finished in 15.30 seconds. After a successful protest, he was allowed to run again – completely alone. Just 40 minutes later, Gletty clocked a personal best of 13.88, gaining an extraordinary 176 points. Without the rerun, he would have finished fifth instead of winning bronze with 8606 points.
