Many people make the mistake that world champions are just ordinary people but try harder.
No.
World champions are the top of a rare group who are far, far, far more physically gifted than you can imagine without seeing it in person.

@Okanogen Correct. This also applies to art, musical talent, chess, even computer programming.

I've been a musician since age eight and I can do a lot of things. But then I read about things that young Mozart and young Elton John did, and I can't imagine that these feats are even possible. He did WHAT? And they did them in passing, not a feat at all. It's just ordinary for such a person. They probably find it hard to imagine not having that ability.
