Koch's 47.6 is just as shady in my view.
Won't get fooled again-
Kratochvilova looks like a guy in that picture
Koch's 47.60 is even shadier. The proof of her cheating exists in the Stasi files.

A much Tougher looking guy than most, I'd say.

Well, would you fight the "woman" that is about to break it?
No evidence whatsoever. She's one of the GOAT.
It's not the most suspect record, but some day it will be broken too. Think about it. An out of shape Symmonds can go sub-1:50, so why is this so unbelievable? The 100m record is more suspect because of the wind factor.

Dump the pre 2005 records and at the same time fix the gender issues with races like the women's 800m.
Americans are better than rushing to conclusions. He said he never took banned substances.

This is a far better world record than 1:53, even I could easily do that when I was younger. No way I could have done 47.6 (and I could do 11.2/3h on grass).
So you take her record away and then Semenya sets the new record.
Is that what we want?
Did you watch the Oslo DL? Same 3 over testosteroned chicks...will be the same the rest of the year. Just a complete travesty.
She's never taken banned substances, or had a clitoris.
The song and the recording is AWESOME and made me even think about erasing the record books before 2005.
But what about the one or two records done legally?
Thank you for the song though!!!
i think caster semenya could run 1.51 if she ran all out,but she only runs fast enough to win.i also think shes got a sub 3.50,and sub 49 in her legs,but we will never see it.

With all the 22 flat 200's, 47.6 is not a big deal. Every 22 flat 200 woman should be capable of 2.2x or 48.40, just as a 20 flat man should be capable of 44.
That they can't, and are even less able to reach the true equivalent of a 50 flat (1:50) shows a clear gender difference due to the level of aggression and pure hate needed to hold form and effort over 400 or 800. This is why the "manly" women have such an advantage at 800 compared to the shorter sprints and longer distances. There are biological differences that show up more at 800m than any other event.

Hormonally (like the swimmers) a lumberjack of a Man!
Sure we've all seen the female body build type some "full natty" some "synthetic" The E German typically looked like this, to discern though between natty and fake one could just look at the shaved beard sillhouette and that would be confirmation of being loaded with anabolics.
The aftermath of all the E German doping was many athletes moving a few more inches to change their gender, having/expressing an agenda towards unknown substances from German officials, and suicide. During interviews Kratochvilova always seemed just, how to put it "more feminine." Maybe an agressive hormonal treatment allowed her recovery?
During this era though I wonder how Kratochvilova and 400 Koch? 47point ultimately sounded(man voice) and looked (facial hair) One must also ask where are all the whistleblowers...
