There is so much history in the sport; so much dedication and pride in it. I love the story about Jim Thorpe, how after he won the first decathlon, the king of Sweden shook his hand and said,  Sir, you are the world s greatest athlete. When I heard that story I knew that what I wanted<br>to be wasn t just a great athlete, but the world s greatest athlete. <br><br>In 1991 Dan s goal came within reach when he became the Decathlon World Champion.<br><br>The No-Heighter<br><br>With the 1992 Olympics looming, Reebok saw tremendous marketing potential in two of the U.S. s top contenders for the decathlon: Dave Johnson and Dan O Brien. The  Dan or Dave ad campaign was launched on Super Bowl Sunday, and<br>overnight the pair became celebrities. Who would win in the showdown at Barcelona Dan or Dave? was the question the advertising campaign centered upon.<br><br>The only problem was Dan never made it on the Olympic team for Barcelona.<br><br> I will never know exactly what went wrong that day, says Dan in quiet<br>resignation, shaking his head and obviously waiting for the interview to move ahead.  I just don t know. <br>What happened was Dan missed all three pole vault attempts at the Olympic trials. His  no-heighter cost him his place on the U.S. team. Thanks to the publicity machine at Reebok, Dan s no-heighter was the most publicized athletic failure of the year, or perhaps decade.<br><br>For Dan, the public humiliation was tremendous. Sportswriters said he lacked the heart and guts of a true competitor, and that he was a much ballyhooed athlete with no discipline. Reebok dropped him like a hot potato. In a few minutes, Dan went from feeling on top of the world to the depths of depression. But while the media questioned Dan s true talent and potential, Dan knew that the no-heighter was a fluke. He had never done it before, and now he was determined that he would never do it again.<br><br> I can t explain what happened that day, but I realized I would have to be<br>totally prepared for any eventuality in the future, says Dan.  It took a few<br>weeks, and quite a few calls from friends, family, coaches and other<br>athletes. Then I was back into training and totally focused. <br><br>Dan s effort paid off almost immediately. Although he didn t compete at<br>Barcelona, a few months later Dan entered the decathlon event in Talence, France. There he set a new world record 8,891 points a record that still stands today. For Dan, he had proven to himself that he had what it takes to be the world s greatest athlete. But the public only remembered the no-heighter. To truly redeem himself, and earn the title he so fervently desired, Dan knew he needed the Olympic gold.<br><br>Dan went on to win two more world championships before the 1996 Olympic trials came around. Once again, aloposed to determine why women are at such a high risk; here are just a few:<br>" Girls don't usually get involved in sport at a young age, leaving their coordination for sports behind that of males.<br>" Because women have less muscle mass than men, they may rely more on their ligaments for support than on their muscxactly what I wanted and was counting the days to Atlanta. <br><br>He sailed through the trials. In Atlanta, he sailed through the decathlon, holding the lower legs and feet to turn outwards, p
