The Greatest Performance in High-School History | Breaking Down Cooper Lutkenhaus's 800m A fantastic break down of the mindblowing performance by Cooper Lutkenhaus and putting into its proper context on why it's arguably the greatest high school performance in history. In any sport. As stated in the video, this is the equivalent of 19.75 200m, 43.8 400m, 3:45 mile and 12:46 5K at the age of 16 and his performance would have been an American record just a year ago. This is better than Quincy Wilson's 400m and Gout or Knighton's 200m by far.
