You really don't think Bolt could have matched those LJ and 400 marks? Pretty much any sub-20 guy is capable of sub-45. And obviously has the speed to jump 27 with a little technique work.
That is simply amazing if he is the only one. Lewis has him beat in all but the 400.
Not really amazing because most people don’t do the long jump.
imagine Rai benjamin doing the long jump. With that bouncy stride.
What? That makes his accomplishments more amazing. Boling is doing things that few, if any, people are able and/or willing to do. That's like the definition of excellence. Count me as amazed.
Rai Benjamin also doesn't do LJ so he doesn't deserve any credit for it.

Bolt gave multiple attempts at the 400 over a span of 14 years and never broke 45. I also don't think you appreciate how much time an energy training for jumps requires. To be able to juggle both jumps and sprints, and do them both at an elite level, is not easy.

For a 27-foot long jumper to run sub-45 is amazing. To also do sub10 and sub-20 is even more amazing. No one else on the planet has done it.
Carl Lewis is the only other person in the sub-10, sub-20 and 27-plus (actually he is the only one in sub-10, sub 20 and 29'-plus. But no one else in sub-45 along with everything else.
Anchored both relays in come from behind.....wow~~~ Won the 100 and 200 and won the long jump and triple jump. Would end up at Kansas as a long jumper/4x1 cat. Ard was responsibe or involved in 60 points vs COS.
Jeanna Prandini at Clovis was a sprinter, long jumper, triple jumper leg on 4x4,
