For some reason the name Bruce Jenner came to mind. I remember him dominating the 76 Olympics, won the decathalon, was on cereal boxes, etc.

In his day, Johnny Wiesmuller was "all that" for sure. He won like a bazillion swimming medals, became Tarzan in movies for several years.


I would say though, the greatest Athlete in my mind will always be Bobby Orr. Though his career was cut horribly short by bad knees he managed to put up stats in the years he had that can only be described as incredible. At one point he was +128. +128!!
