I doubt that time is accurate, but it's still amazing that a guy so big was so damn fast. I've heard of him being timed anywhere from 4.12 to 4.19 several times....so who knows.
I think if he wouldn't have played baseball and if he never got hurt, he would have broken probably every RB record.

I've never seen an athlete quite like Bo, and I wonder if I will ever see another quite like him again. He was pure power. He couldn't hit a curveball to save his life, but when he did connect with a baseball, I was surprised that it didn't go into orbit. The man would snap baseball bats the way other men would snap twigs. He was simply amazing and awe inspiring to watch.
