What was a sport record that people thought would never be broken? Why did they think it couldn't be broken? It can be any sport college or professional.

JOE DIMAGGIO'S 56 GAME HITTING STREAK. IT IS VERY HARD TO HIT IN THAT MANY GAMES. ALSO CY YOUNG'S 511
WINS SINCE NO PITCHER WILL LAST THAT LONG & BE SUCCESSFUL. 25 SEASON OF 25 OR MORE WINS. NOT NOW NOT EVER.

Cy Young's 337 complete games. The very way the game is played now insures that this record will never be broken. With the advent of the the long relief man, set-up man, and the closer, the average innings pitched by a major league pitcher is now about 5.5. No-one will ever come close to that amazing record, ever.

Hey everybody, listen to Kyle K. The guy said the record has to be already BROKEN. Agreeing with Kyle, Roger Maris' HR record was something that was thought was unreachable until Mark McGwire's trainer introduced him to steroids, and Sammy Sosa is the only one that has broken without any proof of steroids, and well Bonds.

Roger Maris's 61 home runs. That record stood for 37 years before Mark McGwire took steroids and broke it.

I would say a couple of them like:
Ed Walsh ERA of 1.816 for his career
Tim Keefe ERA of one season of 1880 with the ERA of .857
Charley Radbourn 59 Wins in a season (1884)
Two 40 or more Wins Seasons Back to Back 1883 - 1884 by Pud Galvin

Orel's 55 inning or so scoreless innings streak. Im not sure if it was 55 but it was somewhere around there.

I agree, no one will ever win 511 MLB games again.
