You realize one exception doesn't disprove a rule, right?
Depends on the rule. If you'd said that wildly disproportionate numbers of East Africans are succeeding at the highest levels of distance running, then no, one exception wouldn't disprove it. But if you say white guys have no chance, which is what was said, then one white guy successfully taking his chance is all that is needed to show it for the foolishness that it is.
