Oscar Walks Out

Interesting story. I remember listening to a podcast a while ago about it.
They also did an analysis of his running, and that it was possible that he was faster with his "blades" than he would have been without if he had normal legs. Something about the energy transfer using the blades vs. a human leg.

Looking at his physique, it was obvious that he wasn't the same athlete as the people he was beating.

He was a sprinter, not distance runner. It's pretty common for sprinters to appear quite muscular.
Hard to say if the blades made him faster than he otherwise would have been....They definitely made him more famous.
