I think Larry Allen can still bench 600lbs but it takes more than raw power to re-enter the NFL, it's the hits to the body that get you discombobulated.

If T.O. is so fast why doesn't he run to Canton and give an acceptance speech at the Hall Of Fame when he's given the highest honor of any football player.

I don't buy the time but still impressive. People in their 40's can still do what they did in their 20's......just a longer recovery and in short bursts.

I am closer to 50 than 40 and can still throw a fastball in the mid-90's. But, it is only for a few pitches then my arm is done for a week :lmao:
i just timed the vid and had him at 4.39 and 4.43. So...assuming the distance is correct...he is in the 4.4 range.

His release looked slow which makes this time hard to believe. Also hard to believe anyone gets faster from age 22 to 44.

Dusted off my stopwatch and have now timed this dash 22 times.

After practicing repeatedly in order to consistently and fairly anticipate the absolute start and to coordinate my stops with the click motions of the two timers’ hands, the consistent times I’ve gotten, from my 16th thru 22nd attempt, are between 5.08 and 5.12

I would’ve liked to have seen the timers’ hands in action at BOTH the start and the finish because, IMHO, they’re giving TO a generous start.

Not very official looking. Hand held stopwatches. Add to that it's T.O. showboating for God knows who and i say bull. Just what dak needs. No thanks.

Yeah, even if you go off the timestamp, it is 5+.

In the beginning, I was clicking my stopwatch at the first twitch of a start, which gave 5.3-plus, but then, to be fair, I backed off a little until his hands were clearly off the ground. Once I coordinated this, and could regularly match the timers’ click-stop motions, the best I ever got was 5.12
