Until I was 15 I used to play water polo at a reasonably competitive level; I had to get yearly "sport physicals" (not sure what they're called in English). I didn't always go to the same hospital and the procedure changed a bit from one place to another.
One year they tested my lung capacity, and they told me that I had "the lungs of king kong" (I think I was at about 125% the average/median/expected for someone my age and size).
It was the best physical ever, I still cherish that moment.
