Josiah_Is_Back 01/28/21 9:19:34 PM #1:	They are all amazing, but which one stands out the most to you as being the most awe-inspiring? At the 1976 Olympics, Japanese gymnast Shun Fujimoto kept his broken kneecap a secret, competed during the team event, completed an 8-foot dismount and led his team to a gold medal Daniel Komen ran two consecutive miles in under 8 minutes, becoming the first (and only) person ever to run consecutive sub-four-minute miles. He did this twice. In 1989, Deion Sanders hit a home run in the MLB and scored a touchdown in the NFL -- in the same week. No one else has accomplished this. At the 1976 Olympics, Nadia Comaneci became the first gymnast ever to score a perfect 10, and she did it SEVEN times. The scoreboard was not calibrated for this, so it showed "1.00."

Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute barrier will always be a milestone, but by this point literally over a thousand runners have accomplished it. Komen is the only human being ever to accomplish the double, and he did it twice.
