Bo Jackson (The Greatest 2 Sports Athlete Ever)

[@warrencaudle4378]

My Bo story. I was in Newark, trying to get to Portland OR. Only flight open was to SFO, first class. So I paid the extra $$, and lo and behold, Bo sat next to me. I recognized him, and said how much of an influence he was on my youngest son, also a 2-sport athlete. Very cordial, and we talked for most of 5 hours. He signed my ticket, and exchanged cards. He asked if I had a hotel, and I said I was connecting. Ran into him again, as he was with the Sox then. An amazing gentleman.

[@robtrawick1]

For as amazing as he was, he was the most humble person on earth when he could have been the most cocky. As an Auburn fan, his touchdown to beat Alabama in 1982 made the series between the two schools even again.

Bo is no doubt the greatest athlete in the history of mankind, and I was fortunate enough to watch him play both football and baseball live and in person. I later meet him in nightclub in 1993 and we shot a game of pool. He was just as cool as a man as he was great as a player.

There are a few highlights that make him look like he was some sort of great player. He was not. Look how powerful he is he broke the bat over his knee & again over his helmet. Guess what he struck out those times. But got positive publicity for striking out. Those players you mentioned actually accomplished stuff in a good solid long career.

His 10.44 100m or his 6.18 55m both WA verified and his documented 4.1 hand timed 30yd dash from home to 1st base during a baseball workout. The 100m is not even in the top 70 fastest by NFL players.

But you believe that Bo would be ahead of them at the 40yd mark only to be passed and destroyed by a wide margin in only the next 20yds. The 4.1 30yd dash makes it humanly IMPOSSIBLE to cover the last 10yds in 0.02 seconds. LMAO!! Show me where he could throw a baseball 100m per hour. Why only count 5 sports? Wilt Chamberlain was an all-star in pro Basketball and pro Volleyball. In fact he made both HOF's. Bo did not have the required carries to even be counted in the books for avg yds per carry. In your mind Bo's physical ability far surpasses everyone. I gave you 3 guys who's athletic resumes are greater than Bo's yet you call it garbage. Lol! That is the response of a fanboy who doesn't deal in reality. As far as Bo being the fastest team sports player Just stop it. The NFL has had 2 former WORLD'S FASTEST HUMANS play in the league. So you can just sit down with that super crap. There have been plenty of players who could run over larger men. Lol. Wilt was not slow. You obviously don't know much about Wilt. Wilt beat Jim Brown in a foot race. Wilt ran 49 seconds in the 440yd dash in hi top sneakers. Wilt and Herschel both threw the shot put farther than Bo. Again Walker himself was faster than Bo. I have already posted their verified times. You are going to have to show proof of the car jumping crap. Your reply will show if you are indeed a fanboy or not.

Man this inspires the fuck out of me me and Bo Jackson share the same Great Grandfather I never got to meet that side of my family I really wish I could get in touch with them

[@raysolorzano2938]

Whether he donned a football or a baseball helmet? Bo just knew! Bo is in fact the greatest athlete ever. I'll even go as far as to say that Michael Jordan is the Bo Jackson of basketball!!

[@thomasgraham665]

I understand Bo Jackson; I played sandlot softball, flag football, and intramural basketball!, yeah!

[@sandrasmith6875]

All i can say is UNBELIEVABLE

[@josephmatthews7698]

Bo Jackson was the greatest athlete ever. Period. The best two sport athlete though has to be Deion Sanders. He's a football hall of famer and the only man to appear in the world series and the Superbowl. Bo never should have played football unless it was on defense. Those big hits cost the world the most electrifying athlete of all time.

I love watching this guy. Growing up in the UK during the 80s we had access to the NFL but only saw rare highlights of his baseball exploits and none of his college career. Even so we were well aware of his incredible abilities. Most of my sports heroes played rugby, cricket or soccer but after seeing Bo play once for the raiders (Im a 49ers fan) it was obvious he was special. I'd never seen anyone like him in any sport. Wish I could have seen him play live.

[@Tboy439]

...Just because someone plays in the world series doesn't make him great. He was a mediocre baseball player at best. Even Deion admitted Bo was a better all around athlete on national TV. In football he was a great defensive back as far as preventing or intercepting passes, but was chickenshit as a tackler.

[@ramonuqt888]

THE REAL CRAZY PART NO1 ELSE IS TALKED ABOUT, OR RIVALED LIKE BO, IN ONLY 4 SHORT YR CAREER

[@christianspartan1990]

People are bouncing off of him while running like he's the juggernaut once he's moving you can't stop him

[@marklepe12]

Bo Jackson is the greatest athlete in human history. Nobody will ever make the all star game in two sports ever! Bo is the only player to do it! This guy was super human! BTW Jordan tried to play baseball and we all know what happen there. Bo Jackson is the G.O.A.T

[@sydboski]

Wilt Chamberlain is in the pro basketball and pro volleyball HOFs Jim Brown is in the pro football and lacrosse HOF's

[@Blazeb23]

Volleyball and lacrosee😅 I'm sure they were competing with incredible athletes

[@sydboski]

@@Blazeb23 Best in the country. Just like the other pro sports in the US.

[@DrGonzoChronic]

Bo Jackson is great but Jim Thorpe name has to be included in the conversation for greatest multi-sport athlete.

[@robertguida8997]

Yes, no argument there, but then again, everyone forgets about Jim Brown, his football is obviously never forgotten, but he's also in the National LaCrosse Hall of Fame

[@sydboski]

1. Thorpe HOF pro football, baseball and basketball, Two time Olympic gold medalist in the multi events 2. Herschel Walker pro football pro bowl, pro MMA fighter, Olympic bobsledder, world class sprinter 3. Wilt Chamberlain GOAT HOF basketball, HOF pro volleyball 4. Jim Brown pro football hof, lacrosse hof 5. Bo pro football pro bowl, baseball all star 6. Deion Sanders pro football HOF, pro baseball

[@slicko69ng]

Dion was a beast of football and he was a great at baseball

[@drewhendley]

“Bo was the Show”

[@powerboatguy2308]

I was watching an interview one time with a guy that played with him in college, he said Bo did not even practice, he could just show up on game day and produce.

[@maxsterling8203]

Fun Fact “$” The BO KNOWS campaign came about in a legendary way as well. What Nike did , Spike Lee was doing the MJ air Jordan commercials and they asked Spike to talk to Bo and help them come up with an equivalent to “Air” his highness Jordan. Spike came back to the guys and said this guy doesn’t have much to say. They said so what d’you got Spike we need something . Spike said I don’t know . They said what ! ? Spike said I don’t know ? Bo Knows. Legendary

[@AP-ik2tl]

I had those shoes in the black and Grey

[@BLAZENYCBLACKOPS]

A P same here, 🔥.

[@KorvidRavenscraft]

3:44 This is the correct answer. Jackson was my generation's superhero, but not enough people remember Thorpe, and how much he dominated everything he touched. Both can be true at the same time

[@johnp388]

I have often maintained the two greatest athletes were Jim Thorpe and Bo Jackson and by no coincidence, this video mentioned Jim Thorpe just right before the 4:00 minute mark.

[@sydboski]

Wilt Chamberlain and Herschel Walker need to be mentioned.

[@samsquanch1234]

Jim Thorpe the most overrated athlete of all time. Look when he was relevant

[@AP-ik2tl]

The only athlete I've see that was as popular as Jordan. And as good at what he did

[@cheese3416]

Eclipsed him till injury

[@mkadoza]

Tiger.

[@AJ-og9ms]

Hmni Kadoza tiger was an asshole and he wasn’t anything close to a bo Jackson only in his mind . If it got tough tiger would make excuses tiger blamed other people. Tiger is just a jerk

[@noillwill4759]

Excellent

[@beauher7902]

Bo Jackson was Hercules.

[@phillipthomas118]

Even though both careers were short in time he will be inducted in both regardless of how many games needed to be inducted,how do you not have the greatest athlete of all time not in the HOF. 🙏🏿✊🏿

[@s1mo-RBC]

I really wish Bo would've stuck to baseball. He'd have stolen 1,000 bases and hit 600 home runs for sure. So incredibly strong and fast. The thing about Bo that no one talks about is his arm strength. Best arm I've ever seen.

[@mmbjerzeeboi]

Bo Jackson is the GOAT 🐐 Bro was a star in two sports ,And I’m not saying that because I’m a Raiders fan lol

[@slicko69ng]

He's the only player who hit a homerun and scored a touchdown I think it was even the same day or maybe it was the same week I forget

[@samsquanch1234]

Why make a comment when you actually don't know

[@michaelmcardle4096]

Should be in the hall of fame FB and BB the small sample shoes it.
