Today Owens would be competiteve only in long jump event."The Owens 1936 style" without any special training, but based only on its natural qualities, could jump at least 8.60.I believe that with appropriate training could also exceed the threshold of the fateful 9 meters.
Poetry in motion. Has there ever been a more perfect sprinting action? The economy and grace of movement are something to behold. It's absurd to compare him to Usain Bolt and his times: 70 years separate them. Owens I believe was a law student at the time and a typical day would be: rise early for an hour's training, go to school, another hour training, go to work to pay for college, study, bed.
What is really sad is that he came back to this country and after all the hoopla died down, he couldn't even get a job to pay for college. He had to do exhibition runs, racing animals.
jesse owens jumped 811cm in long jump. Imagine how long he'd have jumped with today's track and shoes
