Interesting article in The Daily Nation about the athletic feats of ancient man.

Notably

- Most Australian aboriginal men could sprint as fast as Usain Bolt.

- Many Greek rowers before would be better than the world's elite now

- Men of a certain Rwandan tribe could all high jump 7 feet, as it was a required feat to become a man.

Anyways, I thought in was an interesting look at the muscular progression of mankind.  Interesting as to how we are the way we are now.  I wonder if it's due to general lack of physical emphasis (compared to before), or less emphasis on survival of the fittest.
