<human>:  Could a Bengal cat hypothetically best Javier Sotomayor's record?
<bot>: Yes, a Bengal cat could hypothetically best Javier Sotomayor's record. Javier Sotomayor is an athlete that holds the men's high jump world record of slightly over 8 feet. The average cat can jump from 7.5 to 9 feet. Bengal cats have powerful hind legs which make them jump higher than other breeds, so a Bengal cat could hypothetically best his record.
