It’s impossible for anybody to predict the magnitude of the freakiness of athletic talent
That cracked me up when I read it.
There was a time when people said man could not survive driving in excess of 60 miles per hour. I may not live to see anyone run a 9.4 100 meters, but it'll happen eventually.

Id like to see a special olympics where atheletes ARE allowed to take drugs. Just to see what could happen.
