In this video we show an anatomy comparison of elite sprinters of varying heights and examine how height can effect an athlete's speed based on it's impact on their stride length and stride frequency

10:32: Clip removed due to copyright, missing audio should read as follows:

"When we ask why there aren’t more tall sprinters competing today if they have potential for greater stride length and force production, we need to remember how small they are with regards to the total population, and how much more likely they are to compete in a different sport since size and athleticism are such sought after traits in team sports where where the earning potential for turning pro is much higher than in track."
