I'd like to use this opportunity to point out that none of these impress me. My Great Uncle Leigh Miller was the fastest man in the world in 1928! https://nsshf.com/inductee/leigh-miller-2/

He ran a 10.28 100 YARD dash. Crazy to see how far we've come in less than 100 years. Quite impressive though - Leigh trained himself, which actually disqualified him from competing in the Olympics for Canada, as they didn't like that. There were no starting blocks back then either.

We've got a picture of him holding me as a lil baby. A Miller legend!

- Cool story bro.
