If you read under that part about the 25° viewing angle it has more detailed specs. Typical brightness is 110,000 mcd @ 20 mA. 1/2 viewing angle (I'm assuming 1/2 power viewing angle) is 13°. Specs are certainly believable-that's only an output of about 4 to 5 lumens at 20 mA. This is similar to the current crop of 5mm, 40,000 mcd, 20° LEDs being offered by several sellers on eBay. BTW, the 100 mA is an absolute maximum current, and I wouldn't recommend driving at that level continuously. This isn't one of those multi-die LEDs which can be driven continuously at higher currents.
