Olympics

[edit]

I would like to mention that Tyke would probably have won the gold medal in the high jump except he twisted his ankle prior to the Olympic trials and therefore couldnt qualify (he held the world indoor high jump record). Also, he played basketball and was an obvious incredible dunker. I dont know what happened to him, but this can only be a sad story of an exceptional talent. Was Tyke Peacock related to the "better than Jessie Owens" Eulace Peacock who got injured before the Olympics?
