On May 6, 1954, Roger Bannister broke that record and ran the one mile at 3:59.4. Only two months later, that record was broken, and every few years since then the record is set lower and lower.

Même la mort est soumise à de nombreuses règles de droit (sort du cadavre, respect dû à la mémoire des morts).
