The Men's large hill individual ski jumping competition for the 2006 Winter Olympics was held in Pragelato, Italy. It began on 17 February, and concluded on 18 February.

Fifteen skiers were pre-qualified, on the basis of their World Cup performance, meaning that they directly advanced to the final round. These skiers still jumped in the qualifying round, but they were not included with non-pre-qualified skiers in the standings. The fifty-one skiers who were not pre-qualified competed for thirty-five spots in the final round.

^ 1: These skiers were pre-qualified; they did perform jumps in the qualification round, but were not ranked with the non-pre-qualified jumpers.

^ 2: Chaadaev was disqualified because his skis were of improper length.

The final consisted of two jumps, with the top thirty after the first jump qualifying for the second jump. The combined total of the two jumps was used to determine the final ranking.
