The 1991–92 FIS Ski Jumping World Cup was the 13th World Cup season in ski jumping and the 2nd official World Cup season in ski flying with second small crystal globe awarded.
Season began in Thunder Bay, Canada on 1 December 1991 and finished in Planica, Slovenia on 29 March 1992. The individual World Cup winner was then sixteen year old Finnish "wunderkind" Toni Nieminen, one of the biggest surprises and one of the youngest stars in World Cup history, dominating the season with 8 World Cup wins, Four Hill Tournament title and Olympic gold on large hill and men's team event; Nations Cup was taken by Team of Austria.
21 men's individual events on 15 different venues in 11 countries were held on the three different continents (Europe, Asia and North America). And first ever team events (2 men's) were held in WC history. 1 event was cancelled (Harrachov) and 1 rescheduled (from Falun to Trondheim).
Peaks of the season were Winter Olympics, Four Hills Tournament and FIS Ski Flying World Championships (which on two separate days also counted for FIS World Cup).
On 22 March 1992 Harrachov at Ski Flying World Championships that also counted for World Cup Christof Duffner crashed at 194 metres (636 ft) equaling WR distance (not valid).
Invalid world record distance achieved within this World Cup season.
