This could never happen today, so big stars in a play competition, when they were still active.

[@pierrenilsson6189]

It is happening very soon. Duplantis vs. Warholm 100m race. Not as huge as this of course but still a play competition with active athletes.

[@royaumeuni5730]

@@pierrenilsson6189 So you're comparing a single stunt to an organized race series?

[@andreaswiklund7197]

@@royaumeuni5730Was this some series? Cool.

[@stenovitz]

@@royaumeuni5730 Organized race series? Do you refer to the event in the vid or the Duplantis vs. Warholm event? In both cases I'm pretty amazed if that's the case!

[@royaumeuni5730]

@@stenovitz I refer to Superstars from the '70s en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstars_(British_TV_programme)

Wow. Just wow. How did I miss this? Myself 10yo by the date of this event, includes all my idols by the time, but first time I hear about it. So great. Could something similar happen in such a relaxed amateur atmosphere today, without speed talkers, constant zooming, eager mood-building background music - but on the contrary solely with these men having fun with simple play, like it was in elementary school? I hardly doubt. Happy days! ❤❤

[@Jaska8000]

Ingemar dominated long jump in this weird allstars-decathlon?

[@michaelkjellander9370]

Förvånar mig inte med tanke på hur överlägsen han var på allt i Mästarnas Mästare. Han är en bra multisportare och såg ut gå in för det även här.

[@danfors1333]

Han vann rubbet i det stora hela. Pele var helt kass och kunde knappt cykla.

[@Sandlund93]

Stenmark was a force of nature. People stopped working just to watch him ski. And then they went back to work after his run was over, 2 minutes later. Decades later he was a marvel in the Champion of Champions reality series, ofc winning the whole thing. With a quarter of the population watching. Those are Melodifestivalen numbers, absolutely crazy.

[@Nerdcrusher]

Stenmark cleared 1.26 in standing high jump at 56 years of age, which is pretty crazy considering he's relatively short.

[@daionsavage]

He is 1,81… I wouldn’t say he is ”short”.

[@Onionbaron]

And still competing... Swedish mountains makes people rock!

[@Nerdcrusher]

@@daionsavage Tell me you're not Swedish without telling me. 1,81 is Willow-tier.

[@elpapa68]

@@Nerdcrusher It's average, not short.

[@vika0194]

@@Nerdcrusher1,81 m is basically the average male height in Sweden.

[@andreaswiklund7197]

Stenmark wins. Second place after sunrise in the category of least surprising events.

[@Myrslokstok]

Think I jump 5.50 only Ingmar impress as usuall!

[@korvstopparen]

My favorite athlete of all time, Sugar ray Leonard and im swedish

[@storhemulen]

No surprise that Stenmark won.

[@glywnniswells9480]

The run ups look so slow some of them generate an amazing jump considering

[@incognito7843]

Stenmark would have been a world star no matter what sport he would have chosen.

[@deadmoney18]

Thanks for spoiling it

[@edmundengland]

Vem var Stefan Persson?

[@bjornep2]

En hockeyspelare från Västerbotten som bl.a. vann fyra Stanley Cup med Islanders.

[@edmundengland]

@@bjornep2 Tack, då har man lärt sig något.

Stupid competition.
