For example, you'll see people claiming that Messi can run a 4.33 40-yard dash, which is ridiculous. You also find top 20 and 25 pure speed rankings where Messi isn't mentioned, which is very plausible when you see the players on these lists. I'd love to see how fast Messi would run at the NFL combine - 4.6, maybe?

I posted that video simply because I thought it was interesting in that it showed how different sports use different running styles.
