Oscar Pistorius can easily break 800m and 1000m world records, for sure.
There is no reason to worry about 100m, 200m and 400m world records, but 800m and 1000m are at stake. He definitely is able to run under 1.39 for 800m and 2.09 for 1000m.
400m is for short, with his running spec.
Not sure how Pistorius could deal with the physical aspects of the 800 - it seems like he'd be knocked off balance easily, with people fighting for position. Obviously something he doesn't have to deal with at 400 meters. I can't imagine he'd be allowed to run in an 800 meter race of any consequence, for this reason.
Of course, if he were running all alone, I guess it's conceivable that he could threaten the record... although it still seems like a stretch.
Jeez, with that speed, i'd love to see him in the 1500. He could shatter the world record in that!!!!
