So, ironic that in the first video with Michael Jordan, he's shown being guarded by Danny Ainge, who ACTUALLY played 2 major league sports: Ainge played a few seasons with the Blue Jays before joining the Celtics...

Bjørn Wirkola - Norwegian whom is recognised as one of the best ski jumpers of all time, whilst also being a rather sucsessful professional soccer player, winning both the Norwegian cup and the league with Rosenborg in 1971. He was also crowned the league top scorer that year.

Bo Jackson Didn't Choose baseball just because the royals won it all the year before. The Tampa Bay Bucs, invited him to a meeting when he was still in college, thus being illegal, and he was suspended from the last season of baseball at Auburn. The bucs hoped to get him to not play baseball, So they drafted him 1st overall, but he declined to sign with them and went for the MLB draft instead. Check your shit Watch Mojo.

Ya Thorpe definitely has the most impressive resume. Dave Winfield is a guy who didn't even make the list who should be considered up there with Bo and Thorpe. He was a HOF Right Fielder, but he was actually drafted as a pitcher, being one of the best pitchers in his draft class. He was also a star basketball player at Minnesota, and was drafted by both the NBA and the ABA. He was also drafted by the Minnesota Vikings. He is one of only two people who have been selected in the draft of four different pro organizations. Prob the most underrated multisport athlete of all time. Elway was another guy who is underrated.

The Michael Jordan situation is rather a hard one to chose. The Chi Sox were owned by the Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf. He was honoring Jordan's contract during the "retirement". Probably the only reason he was chosen for the Fall League with being just above the Mendoza Line is due to the strike. And Danny Ainge is the only one to play in the NBA and MLB.

Yup, all Americans. In New Zealand alone we've had George Nepia, who was similar to your number one, as the first prominent Maori athlete, he played Rugby for the national rugby team known as the All Blacks, and that particular team known as the Invincibles, and also played Rugby League for our national team. Then there are a few who represented New Zealand in both Rugby and Cricket, Jeff Wilson being the most notable but there were others before him I believe, and then there's Sonny Bill Williams, world champion in Rugby and Rugby League, and has also been trying his hand at professional boxing. And I'm sure there are Brits who have represented their country in both either Rugby and Cricket or Football and Cricket. There's Australians and other European and even possibly South American or South African athletes who have also had success in two sports. Maybe you could have done an all American top ten and a Rest of the World top ten?

What Bo Jackson did was much more impressive than Jim Thorpe considering it was so modern. Jim Thorpe would struggle in any major sport today as athletes are much bigger, faster, and stronger now. What Thorpe did was impressive for his time but high schoolers today could run circles around him.

in all likelihood, Jim Thorpe would have been built physically of the time just as Bo Jackson or any other athlete does. Modern nutrition, modern weight programs, etc.

then put highschoolers of today back a century ago, get raised, trained and feeded the same way as people back then and see if they "run circles" around Thorpe. Or bring Jim Thorpe as a child here, give him the modern conditions and see what he is able to achieve... Or transfer the athletes of today 100 years in front from now and see how they will compete. And if you CAN'T do that, you should better consider that the only measure for greatness can be the achievement in ones own time. Or was Charles Lindbergh not a great pilot because he didn't cross the atlantic with a modern type airplane or Aristoteles or Leonardo da Vinci not great geniuses because some of their theories turned out to be wrong in modern science with all its steadily growing possibilities? Well, this point is no point actually.

Finally what Bo Jackson did is more impressive than Jim Thorpe. It just boggles the mind that just 25 years ago someone could be so great at the NFL and MLB at the same time. What Thorpe did was so long ago and I don't sports were as competitive back then.

I think Clara Hughes should be on the list. She is the only athlete male or female to ever win multiple medals at both the summer and winter olympics. And she did it between 1996-2010, so it was in modern times which makes it even more impressive.
