    If you take away Wayne Gretzky's goals, he still has more points (goals+assists) than anyone in NHL history.

    Some interesting stats on Longjump:

    1) Jessie Owens record stood for 25 years
    2) It was broken by a jump in 1968 which beat it by almost 3 feet
    3) That 1968 jump stood for 23 years and remains the second longest ever.
    4) current record has stood for 24 years.

    Also....it's illegal to do a somersault when you jump. Apparently it gives you an advantage -- but it would be super awesome if you could.

    Ted Williams set the student gunnery record during World War II pilot training. The test emphasizes reflexes, coordination and visual reaction time and still stood, as of 2012.

    Wilt Chamberlain averaged 37 points and 22 rebounds as a rookie and averaged 50 ppg in his 3rd season while playing 48.5 minutes per game. In his first 6 seasons with the Warriors he averaged 41 points and 25 rebounds per game. In his final season, at age 36, he shot 72% from the field, an NBA record which broke his own old record of 68%.

    In 1987 Jerry Rice set a then NFL record by catching 22 TD passes in just 12 games for an average of 1.833 TD catches per game. For a WR to equal that production in a 16 game season he would have to catch 30 TD passes. Randy Moss broke the record in 2007 by catching 23 TD passes in 16 games.
