Double leg amputee (Oscar Pistorius) beats Marion Jones
Not really, but it could happen based on how Oscar Pistorius has been running with his technical prosthetics. It's an amazing story about determination.
Oscar Pistorius was born without feet, but that has never stopped him.
In March 2004 he ran the 200 meters in 21.97 seconds. The world record for normal athletes is 19.32. Oscar Pistorius can challenge for that mark and he thinks so:
"I can go a lot further—my times should get a lot better."
But what about competing against athletes that don't face the disabilities that Oscar Pistorius has faced?
Istvan Gyulai, general secretary of the Monaco-based International Association of Athletics Federations which sets the rules for competition said:
"There is no existing ruling on this question, either forbidding or allowing it."
