Correction: 10x400 in 46
Legal tailwind = ok
Altitude = technically ok
According to Michael Johnson, some guy named Dwayne has done the same thing. Chambers maybe?

Or Michael Johnson himself. That 19.32 200m WR he ran in 1996 came two years after his personal best of 10.09 in the 100m. It certainly suggests he could have ran sub10 and maybe even hit the 100m mark in that 19.32 at sub10.

This model suggests MJs 100 split was indeed a sub ten-9.962 but MJ has no sub 10 100 meter race to his credit W vN does.
http://myweb.lmu.edu/jmureika/track/splits/mj200.htmlRead the OP's link. MJ said there's "great things ahead for Dwayne."
10.12 + 9.20. 10.12 was on a curve, of course, so worth well under 10 on a straight.

That was a typo by the BBC

I read the link you posted and they gave the actual IAAF recorded splits there from 90-200m. He goes through 100 in 10.13.
That 9.96 is based on a theoretical model and doesn't include the reaction time. If you read it, it shows the final 200m time as 19.152 seconds.
doped to the gills
400 WR?

Michael Johnson, Bolt and the XMan could have done this, but they didn't get the right opportunity.
10 / 20 / 44 is not very good for a 400 guy.
He shows good speed endurance from 100 to 200, running the two at the same speed, but then slows down badly at the 400.
It's the sub 44 that's the hard part.
Tons of sub 10.00 and sub 20.00 sprinters.
Sub 44.00 was extremely rare -- until last year.
Thank God nobody is using peds any more.
This big news.
Michael Johnson focused on the 100 for one year but he just couldn't get under 10.
I thought Xavier Carter would be the first sub 10,20,44 man.
He won NCs in the 100 and 400 on the same day and then ran the 200 in 19.63 that year.
His best 100 wound up being 10.00 and never bettered 44.5 in the 400.
