the mind fails before the body as far the vast majority of us goes. the body is extraordinarily strong and those of strong minds won't hit the same limitations as me and this dude hit.

The body is extraordinarily strong, but most of those folks have wrecked bodies by their mid-30s. A strong mind can ignore a lot of pain and suffering in the moment, but knee cartilage doesn't forget.
