By your logic, Jakob is also a better 5k runner than Chep, Aregawi and Kejelcha? I mean I don't doubt that he could destroy them at a sub 12:40 5k, but we can't know for sure until he races a fast 5k again.
Sure, Kerr is great and bested Jakob a couple races lately (especially his Pre mile was solid). But how many outdoor WRs and olympic gold medals does Kerr have again?

Bro we was all saying that shi when we were ten in the driveway let’s be real.
We were saying it in the driveway, he was saying it while doing some prehab after a second run of the day with a brother who was a European champion. He wasn't just bullshtting there, he had an idea of what it entailed.
Just saw the news of Jakob seemingly destroying the WR. Looked shock when he finished. Can someone tell me how this is even possible at a human level? Pace lights, shoes aside, competition, mental etc. How is this feat actually done? We gotta study his body when he eventually passes away. Does he have an abnormally larger lungs than even his competitors? Is his heart double the size of an average human? (like secretariat) Is he full fledged doping beyond scientific comprehension? I mean these are all valid questions I have regarding this. You can say “oh hard work, dedication, blah blah blah” yea nah this is bigger than that. What on earth is going on in the Ingerbrigsten camp?
Its not possible. Hes doping in high doses,and getting away with it,because hes protected. Hes full throttle using. EPO,blood doping,and maybe a low dose steroid or two.

Just go down to your local track and run a 14.56 for 100m. Once that gets comfortable, then run a 29.12 for 200m, and so on 28 more times. Lemon Squeezy.

Give a horse "Pace lights, shoes aside, competition, mental etc." and he/she would also break records. Boring but true.
I do not know about the other stuff but my Body fat percentage was 3.7% in college. It does help to have a small head, skinny legs, no upper body, and the modern conveniences such as shoes, tracks, and etc.
"Massive speed and strength." foolish British announcer.
I think he should look up the word STRENGTH. He might have some strength in his legs compared to the average skinny distance runner, but I'm betting he cannot do a legitimate 180 in the bench press! (For those idiots on here that means all the way down to the chest, pause for a full second, then press the weight back up to full arms length. The butt must not move on the bench and the shoulders must remain in contact with the bench. The feet must remain stationary.) I am aware that almost anyone in that race could do 225 if they cheated!
