I have to go with Secretariat.

Bo Jackson was the most freakish athlete I've seen in my lifetime. The guy was 6'1"-230# and probably had a 40-time somewhere in the 4.2's. He could outrun anybody on the football field and he could also run over 250# linebackers..... or just jump over everyone. He could also send 95 mph fastballs 500+ feet in the opposite direction and hose runners at the plate from the warning track.

and break bats in two over his knee...dude was superman

[Tejastrue]

And...in an NFL game against Cincinnati a hard tackle dislocated his hip. It was said that he alone popped it back into place. Just crazy.

[coach]

Bo Jackson - the most overrated athlete of all time...

Bo holds the record for fastest 40 time ever at the NFL combine with a 4.12. Apparently a lot of people didn't believe it and he ran again later that week and ran a 4.18.

Source: I watched ESPN's 30 for 30, "You Don't Know Bo" last night.
