Maysang Kalimud, better known by his Chinese
name C.K. Yang (楊傳廣), is
arguably the greatest Taiwanese athlete of all time. In
1960, this native Taiwanese from the Amis tribe came within an
inch of winning the Olympic decathlon competition held
in Rome. He took silver, but C.K. Yang's friendship with the
man who won gold in that event in '60, American Rafer
Johnson, is the stuff of sportsmanship legend. Here's the story
of C.K. Yang  (1933-2007) ... a Taiwanese athlete like
no other.
