      That’s actually false, Bob Hayes never ran 8.6. It was later re measured/timed to be 8.74. Not to mention that it was hand timed for Hayes, so it was deemed inaccurate. Bolt holds the fastest anchor leg ever, with Asafa Powell being a close second with an 8.68 anchor leg. Not to mention that when Bolt broke the 150m world record I believe he split 8.70-8.71.

    There’s one thing missing from this video that is very important but probably hard to account for: we usually reach out physical limits when we are charged with adrenaline from a life-threatening or very stressful situation (not average adrenaline from playing sports).
    So, it is very possible that very fit ppl could surpass quite a few of these if the body is in survival mode.

      Adrenaline would make a difference, but not much of one, look at the full video of Eddie hall deaflifting 500kg he psyched himself up so much he nearly killed himself, adrenaline can only increase strength by so much, anymore strain and the tendons would simply give out, you can have all the power in the world but its limited by the ability of the tendon and muscle to stick to bone and your joint to bear the weight.

      Yes! It's sometimes referred to as hysterical strength and it happens when we're too motivated to care about pain.
      Our nerves shut off and our mind starts pumping adrenaline and you're right, it's most common in the case of saving a child, but leaves your muscles and tendons in terrible condition.

      Problem is those barriers are there for a reason. If you overexert said strength you could rip your muscles and tendons apart. Also not a good idea to use adrenaline for too long because it can become toxic in you system at certain levels.

    Running on fours is probably not overcome running on 2 because human's spines don't have an appropriate design to support moving like that.

    One thing to point out about bolt vs hayes is that in the 1960s, there was no electronic timing, therefore the times were only accurate to the nearest 10th of a second and there is still a little bit of inaccuracy to factor in when you compare the manual timing as well

  • @MellonVegan
    @MellonVegan Před 2 lety +12

    The issue with how much weight you can lift is that very few people do those sports and even fewer do it in the superheavyweight divisions.
    Most genetically gifted people of that size do sports that actually pay. While the maximum deadlift has "only" increased by 40 kilos between 2011 and 2016, that's actually *more* than it increased between 2002 and 2011. It takes genetic specimens of the highest orders to pursue that goal for a very long time and most just don't. And both Eddie Hall and Hafthor Björnsson retired not long after, due to health reasons, despite only just hitting their prime. As a caveat though, the world record without the use of lifting straps and a deadlift suit (so lifting with just your body) has not been broken in competition since 2011. But those who would be capable of it also haven't tried bc that's not their sport.
    The heaviest ever RAW (and drug tested, for whatever that's worth) squat, btw, was taken from just over 400 kg to just shy of 500 kg by a single person, Ray Williams. Since he seems to have lost his stride, nothing much happened. The bench press was progressing very slowly from 320-ish kilos since the 90s to 335, just 5 years ago. Then suddenly, Julius Maddox appeared and took it to 349 kg. His goal is to bench 800 lbs, which doesn't seem to be too unrealistic, at some point.
    Lastly speaking about *actual* weightlifting (sports have proper names), the snatch and clean&jerk records of the 80s (achieved with very lax drug testing) seemed untouchable until Lasha Talakhadze came along and surpassed every weightlifter in history by 12 kg in the total, achieving 484. He has since done 490 and everyone is just waiting for him to finally achieved the magic 500 kg (which might be realistic, given his progression).
    So it's a matter of the right person doing the right things in a given sport and given the small gene pool of strength sports, this could take a while. But record progressions are by no means slowing down, across the board. If anything, the progression in some sports is speeding up bc these sports are becoming much more popular.
    Lastly, don't discount the future evolution of PEDs.

      Anyone who's physically capable can punch with enough force to kill, if you hit in the right spots. It's pretty scary, honestly. While I think women abusing men is just as unacceptable as the other way around, or between people of the same sex, I still think it needs to take A LOT, probably a legitimate threat to your life as a man, for it to be right for you to punch a woman. If she's trying to kill you or someone else, then that's about the only reason. The reason is that one punch from an out of shape slob of a man can knock her out for good. That's a really sad thought. Women are pretty fragile.

    I'm surprised for the punch you guys didn't put into account the Olympic-level boxers are typically not as good as their professional counterparts. And even with boxers, because of the gloves they use to punch, there is a reduction in punching speed and power. Idk how academically valid the recording of Francis Ngannou's punch is, but the UFC advertised that his punch was equivalent to a ford escort coming at you at full speed officially holding the record for the world's hardest punch.
    I'm not calling your sources absolutely wrong, but if I didn't know much about punching or combat sports and just had a good understanding of physics. I would record Olympic boxers too, with the assumption this is where the best at punching which they aren't.

    Holy shit. So the reason Stapp would be rendered temporarily blind, assuming it isn't the "temporary" as in a traditional greyout or blackout from G forces, would be from most likely his own eyeballs being pushed into his orbitals hard enough that it probably caused inflammation or something at the optic nerve, interfering with impulses from his eyes getting to his brain. Like you ever rub your eyes too hard and your vision is kind of fading in when you open your eyes? That's cause the pressure you applied put enough blood flow increase from rubbing that it interfered with the optic nerve both creating and sending signals for the brain to process. Now multiply that to a point that your left actually blind temporarily, but your eyes don't pop. I bet it would still feel like your eyes are cue balls pressing into your skull every second.

    Yup! Probably best to write a record that far back in Cocaine Font.
    Nothing against Hayes, but both you and I know how old sports records, especially in sports like these, respond to performance enhancing drugs.
    To be honest, I have difficulties with records as “fresh” as the 90s’ and 00s’.
    Track & Field anyone from America in that timeframe? Yeeeesh!
    Note: the cocaine mention doesn’t mean that drug specifically, it’s just to get people along.
    That four legged potential record in 2048 was a fascinating thought I must admit, though.

    Concerning hitting hard: Wladimir Klitschko was reported to have a punching power of up to 700 kg. And there are also people who achieve 2000 kg. And boxers are uncapable of achieving this with their technique.
