Yang (10 July 1933 in Taitung, Taiwan January 27, 2007 in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 73), was an Olympic decathlete from the Republic of China. Known as the "Iron Man of Asia," Yang won the gold medal in the decathlon at the 1954 Asian Games, and he again won the gold medal in the decathlon in the 1958 Asian Games, and in addition, the silver medals in both the 110 meter hurdles and the long jump, and the bronze medal in the 400 meter hurdles. Yang''s first Olympic Games competition was at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, Australia, where he finished in eighth place in the decathlon. Yang''s most memorable decathlon competition was a duel with, Rafer Johnson, his good friend and fellow track and field teammate at University of California at Los Angeles, during the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. Going into the final event of the decathlon, the 1500 meter run, Yang trailed Johnson by just 67 points in the decathlon competition, but Johnson hung on to win the gold medal, with Yang winning the silver medal.
