Some shit like that. Their fast twitch muscle, their stamina, pretty much all areas except the space between their ears.

Our rugby teams have had some fantastic Polynesian rugby players. we had a guy called Jonah Lomu who played for us in the mid-nineties and revolutionized the way the game was played. The dude was something like 6 foot 5, weighed in at around 235-240 pounds and could run 100 meters in under 11 seconds. What was even more amazing was at the time he was playing with an un-diagnosed kidney problem, we only ever saw this guy at about 70%

Below is a clip of him terrorizing England at the '95 World Cup and a clip of all his test tries. Grown ass men didn't want anything to do with him,

He came within an inch of signing for the Dallas Cowboys, turning down a lot of money to stay in NZ.
