So, Jack, if you're listening, get ready.
You know, essentially the enhanced games, the build up to it, they were implying they were going to be breaking nearly every world record they were going for.
All these athletes could take whatever they want.
And obviously the substances that they would be taking are illegal in mainstream events like the Olympics, World Championships.
They would not be allowed to take them.
They were allowed to take absolutely everything.
The build up, it was on in Vegas.
They were giving a million dollars to everyone who broke a world record.
The buzz was everywhere.
We were thinking, everybody's going to be breaking world records.
This is crazy.
Now, obviously, they wouldn't stand.
But the reality of the event was that there was only one world record broken.
Exactly.
And it was only broken by 0.07 seconds.
It was the 50 metre freestyle in swimming.
And it was Greek athlete Christian Gicalomavev.
Excuse my Greek.
Excuse my Greek.
But he's actually only the one athlete who went and broke a record.
