I dont know how many of you have heard about late Jimmy George,legend of Indian volleyball. He was the first player in India to play in Italian Professional league(equivalent to NBA in basketball and was widely regarded as one of the best 10 attackers in the world. Unfortunately, he passed away in a tragic car accident in Italy in 1987. Here is the video of of how he destroys Japanese single-handedly in Seoul Asian games 1986 and gives us the bronze. See his athleticism, his incredible smashing power ,all at the age of 32. An unbelievable player this man was! p2Lr_ZZaz94&feature=related mdrD7rssjZY
