# Olympic level
plus he's a pilot, author, dj and all sorts of other things.

# meh you can't really say that now can you
if you ask me the fact that it's technically 616 is just a fun thing to know so you can be a smartarse about it.

# It still might not be though.
If it's all based on a mistranslation, which was supposedly proved by a scroll found a few years back. Who's to say that the scroll is correct and not typoed?

that something written at least one hundred years after the events might not be 100% factually accurate?!
