If Batman took part in the Olympic games, he would likely win most the events, such is his fitness and agility. If you too wanted to be a Batman, it would be possible… in addition to high levels of fitness, being a billionaire would also be an advantage.
There’s a quote from Neal Adams, the great Batman illustrator, who said Batman would win place or show in every event in the Olympics. Probably if I were Batman’s handler, I’d put him in the decathlon. Although Batman is shown in the comics as being the fastest and the strongest and all these other things, in reality you can’t actually be all of that at once. To be Batman properly, what you really need to do is be exceptionally good at many different things. It’s when you take all the pieces and put them together that you get the Batman.
