I must contest this. I am an unofficial level 3 unicyclist and I just went outside and did a 180 with 0 turn radius just to prove you wrong.



And that "Micheal Jordan" would probably be Kris Holm.

One wheel is better than two!
Here's a thread I think people would be interested in. There is a brand of unicycle called a coker, which has a 36" diameter wheel, and some of these guys have created a 1:1.5 pedal rotation to wheel ratio with a special hub. Top speed on an ordinary coker for the average rider is maybe 15, with some reports of 20+. This Uber-Coker will certainly go 20+ mph.
