1. When i was watching greg rutherford the other day and he won with 8,25 also when he won the olymics in 2012 he was nearly 60 cm down on Lewis and Powell and these guys were jumping a lot longer consistently over 25-30 years ago how long would they be now, with even better training equipment soes etc ?
2. Alright, Bob
3. Carl Lewis Admits to failing a drugs test
   the race that shocked the world says alot bout certain used substances
4. Carl Lewis is definitely the best long jumper of all times ! Powell is like a one-time-fluke long jumper. He was good, but not great. Lewis was and still is "the greatest ever in this event". His winning streak is so special, never matched and unlikely to ever be matched by anyone in any track-and-field event. Powell won one time. I'm pissed-off by Powell's luck, because his name is remembered although he is so below Lewis. His victory is some sort of theft.
5. This is only Part 2. Look for Part 3 and Part 4 for the rest of the competition.
