Xavier Carter’s sunglasses make him look fast sitting down
Hahahahahahaha
lol
He looks like A train
Hes a mutant after all
@@tasibsharar7357 yeah he does 😂
If he didn't get injured Bolt and Carter would've probably had one of the greatest track rivalries
True
Absolutely. We missed out on it huh?
looks like it was. the drive to take the crown the next time is always a great motivation.
they'd push each other for a sub 10s 200m
If ONlY
Carter was never the same after his injury. Neither was Blake.
Blake has been training hard to get back in that shape, only time will show us
@@melkin_g I'll hope he does well again, but I have a hard time believing that he'll get close to 9.69 and 19.26
@@charlesthorndike2702 Well those are the second best times in the history of both events, imo he can get very close to those times and still be very competitive in the current scene
Blake will never be back to what he was. Many may say never say never. But it is truly sad. He went to the same HS as me. A great athlete he sure was.
@@nallis01 I mean, he already has acomplished everything a sprinter would want anyways
The X man!!! He had so much potential and it’s such a shame his career never panned out. He was my favourite once upon a time. His 100/400m NCAA double is still legendary.
Facts same here
What happened to him? Just gave up?
@@user-he8rl4sm3k try watching the video
@@user-he8rl4sm3k 6:33 onwards
What were his 100 / 400 m times at ncaa ?
Imagine falling down at that speed
Pissed😂😂😂
Rip
Imagine tripping someone
@@yourmomAndrew omg my face hurts
I do track and when I was like 6 I fell over one of the hurdles and it was painful to get up so the medic had to carry me of the track come to find out I broke my leg and I had to go to the hospital didn't run for about 2 years
I really hate that Johan Blake’s Prime happened at the same time as Bolt. He deserved the Glory, he’s the second fastest man ever!
*Yohan
Tied for second
@@willflemons2487
Well if you look at both his 100m and 200m
9.68
19.26
HE is indeed the second fastest ever. But I have a feeling he soon wont be. This Bromell looks to me like he has at least 9.66 in him on his best day.
@@fender1000100 go do your research and come back. Yohan Blake best time for the 100m is not 9.68 but 9.63. Stop hyping up Brommel and be realistic in analyzing the athlete. No athlete out there now is showing signs of Gatlin, Powell, Carter or even Maurice Green sonmuch so you are comparing them to Blake and Gay's time. See it for what it is and not what you are hoping for.
@Kyphosis than how did Blake run final 100m in 9.12 in 2011
Usain bolt's dominance over more than decade speaks volumes of his examplary fitness level, being injury free at the peak of his career and at the top of human prowess in physical excellence.
so basically, what you're saying is, we never really got to see usain bolt vs xavier carter.
damn i feel robbed, they would have rewritten the record books entirely keeping up with each other.
If Xavier sees this video he would be so happy for him saying this at the end 7:48
If you want to compare the two fairly you need to look at Bolt's 100m dash with a running start which is actually 8.7 compared to Carters 9.27.
@@Alex84575 I think you’re underestimating how much fatigue you get from running the first 100m. The only comparison would be 100% fair is if Carter didn’t get this awful leg injury.
It's actually great to finally see someone analyze races outside major championships.
I think you should also check Bolt's 19.57 in Brussels 2009 and his 9.88 at the 2016 Jamaican grand prix
One of the most talented sprinters of all time he also ran 10.00secs for 100m and 44.53secs for 400m.
That 100 time must be really frustrating for him
Random Guy Yes almost sub 10
Brazilian NR was 10.00 until some months ago. What Bolt ran as an adolescent 😂😭
Same for distance running... It's a shame, so many talents negligected and low oppprtunities
@@otaviorbs Bolt's best 100m was nonexistent til 2007 when he ran 10.03. He was 20 years and 11 months. Depending on who's criteria you go by, Bolt would have been beyond adolescence.
I'm not a track and field enthusiast, but youtube recommended this channel to me and I'm enjoying it a lot.
With a name like "Usain Bolt" no wonder he's fast
Insane bolt
Flash cries in darkness
3:19 Xavier and Usain are the same person
Why is he named after the citizens of the USA? You know, Kenyan, Hawaiian, USAin.
sonic bolt
Based on his form at the end of the race, he was running too fast for his own body😂
Fr
😂😂 good laugh bro lmao.
😂😂😂
@RandomThoughts, humour. get a sense of!
@@leeeastwood6368 shut up! Respect your elders. Ok he didn't get the comment but it's nice of him to explain his theory like that, you know you won't be as fast as you are now forever.
the shifting of gears though wtf lol he was tapping into the SPEED FORCE :D
Carter was never the same after his injury. Neither was Blake.
Bolt slowed down in so many games. It Pissed me off a lot because I feel he'd have recorded even better records than he has now.
he was smart. figured he understood that if he shattered record beyond possible practicality... everyone would be extremely suspicious.
I was annoyed by it too.
@@ceasarcarcus391 suspicious? If you're insinuating drug use....yeah they got tests for that. Simpleton smh.
@@bradthompson5383 best u stfu he always pass his test with flying colors no need for drugs unlike america don't speak on what u don't know
@@bradthompson5383 i hope u repeat your quote for michael phelps
I feel badly for Xavier. One injury and his great potential was shot.
Very true…similar to Bo Jackson story
It's great to show us some great athletes and talents, who are not well known because of injurys.
Lol as finnish person i didnt expect to watch race with my own language😂
Tuli kyl puskista.
Torilla tavataan
Interesting to see how far away Bolt was to the inside of his lane compared to every other athlete in the 2006 race. Carter was almost on top of his. Bolt is such an aggravating athlete to watch. His incredible times could have been even faster if he focused on small things like this, as well as maintaining a full effort at the end of his races.
Track is a race to win. Why risk an injury or deplete all of your energy when there is a such thing as recovery, a next race and a career. Do pro basketball or pro football teams keep piling up the points once the game is in hand? Only in college and that is because of rankings. No, once you have the race in hand I say slow down, unless you are going for a world record ahead of time. The name of the game is win the race, not set a record every time you are on the track. Now if you slow down and lose or if running in rounds miss getting to the next round then that sucks. Otherwise who is really going to be upset with the guy who has the 100m and 200 m record since 2009, won Olympic Gold 3 times in a row and has 8 gold medals? Lol sounds nitpicky to me. You probably never ran track...
Impressive last 50m...But as we see often, and as I was once told by a wise person, there are always many other athletes that could have been as good as the current champion, but never made it for whatever reason. It could be injury, motivation, an accident, or many other scenarios, that could prevent an athlete from achieving their true potential. Many things need to fall in line, for any athlete to truly reach their potential, and go on to achieve greatness.
Wise words my friend
I ran track for a long time and it's incredible when you actually find that other gear. Although I tore something a few weeks after perfecting my stride during the other gear and sat out the rest of the season.
imagine your last name being bolt and being one of the fastest people in the world
Wow, you did a great job packing the information into an 8 minute 10 second mini documentary. That was impressive.
Awesome tribute to Xavier Carter. I’m sure he would appreciate your work.
Bolt's 200m WR run was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Even Michael Johnson was going nuts.
Injury is the ennemy number One for an athlete ☢⚠️☢
Magic, juste flying.... 🇨🇭1961 thank you, I love it !!!
If someone beats the king usain bolt usain is gonna get his record back
How?
Not anymore he won't, not a chance he's retired and probably isn't training like he used to
Nobody is beating that record for Now
Not even
Hmm probably
What about Blake's last 100m split in his 19.26 ... with a .10 s deley in the start???
that has to be seriously quick
Well ... Blake ran 9.12 for the last 100 m!!! And, most irritating ... his reaction time was 0.13s slower than Bolt's world record race reaction time. Reaction time ... nothing about running!!! Thus, his "real" time, with a "normal" reaction time, should be 19.13!!!! Just try to absorb that!!!
@@danielbrehmer4912 +0.7 m/s wind. Usain ran it on -0.3 m/s wind. But IDK how much difference does that makes.
@@zanies6288 yea that kinda evens it out. Just goes to show they both couldve run faster. I truly think bolt had sub 19s potential
@@zanies6288 When you factor in the wind speed for their adjusted times, Bolt's time is still slightly faster than Blake's time regardless if their reaction times are included. The difference between their wind speeds had a about an equal affect on time adjustment as the difference between their reaction times. They basically canceled each other, making Bolt's race still the faster effort.
What an absolute gem of a video! Loved this, easily the best athletics channel out there for me. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼🖤
You told that story so well. I wasn't familiar with this race, and it was cool to hear you play it out, almost like a movie.
He’s a beast! I love seeing him leave other’s in his dust💜 Still a champ Bolt
Bolt's transformation from 06-08 is crazy
Dope.
all the dope in the world but he still couldnt run as fast as Bob Hayes
@@cattycats4 Bob Hayes time was actually 8.74 seconds with electronic timing, his 8.5 seconds was hand-timed. You can't be the best in everything my guy. Bolt ran 8.65 and Asafa Powell 8.68. Move on and stop the hatred.
@@tajaun3467 theres a video that explains it on youtube, you obviously havnt seen the video evidence yet, sorry for your ignorance
@@cattycats4 Then send a link.
Whenever I watch your videos I always think it is many people not just one really really good youtuber.
the best running channel of all time, thanks for your analysis!
When Xavier accelerated in the last 50 meters, it's like he pushed the "Turbo" button for power boost. Unreal!
I ran against X in the 2004 Florida regional 400 finals. He only beat me by 6 seconds LOL! Knew he was something special back then. Sad that his track career took negative turn and never took off like everyone expected.
Sure you did buddy.
I guess you had an injury too. What happened to your track and field career
6 seconds? Man was u walking? 😂😂😂
Was great watching him and Walter Dix battle it out during their high school years in Florida
“Näin ponkaisevat miehet takakaarteesta liikkeelle, ja hyvin lähtee sieltä heti Usain Bolt!”
Mieti niitä tyyppejä ketkä yrittää ymmärtää sitä mut ei oo suomalaisii XD
wtf is this languaga
@@husseinmoussa2947 not english
Mä oon huomannu että todella monissa näissä urheilu kilipeissä se kommentaattori on suomalainen
@@thehedgy3647 Ei täällä mitään muuta katota ku urheilua. Paitsi lätkähallin kahvilassa pyörii aina Salkkarit
He obviously Excelerated but when you watch it closely, his legs don’t seem to go faster. It’s almost like the others where being pushed back. Amazing!
Damn, we missed out on possibly an epic sporting rivalry between Carter and Bolt.
So much goes on , Some learn from their situations , some push beyond & lose the balance .... Awesome video !!!
I'm no running loving but this guy makes some good video, tell his passionate about it, love your stuff mate.
He's legs at the start: Oh shit here we go again
He's legs after 100m: GASSS GASS GASSSS
At first race of usain with carter his body weight was little back, but in his best 200m his body posture was much improved and shifted forward
how have I never heard of this!? Great video!!
“Get ready to have your mind blown.”
proceeds to give me an ad
I want to see Xavier vs bolt once again😫😫😫😫
These guys run so fast now I want to see them add a speedometer on the screen as well.
Now I understand who made Usain Bolt as the GOAT. Its his motivation that he gets from multiple runners that had beat him. Justin Gaitlin... Xavier Carter... I can clearly see Usain Bolt's motivation for running.
Its always your rivals who pushed you to your maximum potential, not your enemies, not your friends. Its always the rivals. And now he is inspiring the younger generation to run even faster and try to beat his record 😌
Gay started to slow down near the end, because he didn’t see Carter on the outside. This happens relatively often in sprints. I remember Frankie Fredericks did the same thing in a race running in lane 8.
Still, that last 50m kick was unbelievable. I usually see a 'third gear' sprint like that in rugby and football, but those athletes are competing against slower competitors. This guy hit a third gear in the middle of a ridiculous field, overexerting or not, he looked inhuman for a few steps.
@@benjamingardner3314 Unbeleaveble, bit not enough to beat Gay, if only he had seen the winner on time.
Why do the athletes slow down near the end? In Bolt's case he did it very often. Doesn't he want to be the fastest?
@@prasathlr Of course he does. Every athlete, every man has the urge to show the opponents that they can beat them with less power, by slowing down, dribbling them. Look at Ali. He danced in the ring in the fight for the title. I would, you would do it, if only we could.
I love the effort and love you put into your videos.
3:50
They look like they're levitating bro.. 💀
This is a riveting vid. Very well reseached. Much appreciated.
it looks like he suddenly starts running on one of those airport people mover belts
1:48 - "He's probably 3 - 5 metres ahead of anyone else" - he is about ONE metre ahead of Xavier Carter! And TWO metres ahead of Bolt! Nowhere near five metres ahead.
Prentis Hancock Yeah, Gay is great and was obviously ahead but clearly the gap was only 1-2 meters. Not even close to 3.
omg my man got the finnish anouncing tape👏
this is a great analysis video, didn't even think of it like that
Does anyone know where he gets data on splits (like the second 100m of a 200m race)?
Likely he just calculates it himself
You can google it for sure there are pages.
This video isnt special he is low on content.
Blake’s 19.26 is fastest second 100m in 200m ever
@@jasamsve3398 link?
In all the sprint races they time the first half of the race, once you have that time, what’s left is the second split and simple math to get the second half time for the race. Taking in account physics, speed is not constant in humans. Theoretically, a human decreases in acceleration towards the end of a race and the best attain top speed at about 30 meters and can only maintain to about 60 to 70 meters. So the longer you can maintain top speed, the faster your finishing time will be.
The sprint races are in two phases, the first part is acceleration and the second part is maintaining momentum. Amazingly, Bolt, later in his career and Xavier (X Man) in this race was able to maintain his speed when he was supposed to be slowing down and that’s called a “negative split” when you run the second part faster than the first and 9.92...that is amazing even with momentum helping.
A stopwatch
Tyson Gay let up a little at the end and that cost him the race.
Tyson Gay lol
FBI shut up 🙄
FBI i was gonna say that xD
@@speciti4751 haha
FBI 😂😂😂😂😂
Pee Wee!! Glad to see him getting his shine on this video. Xavier was a beast!!
Great content, made my day. Hope you stay always blessed. Good luck for the next one.
One of those times you can't believe what your eyes are seeing. Jaw dropping.
Well just take into account that he was already up to speed , so it's one amazing time ...
But can't be compared to Usain's record ...
Because Usain still had to accelerate from 0 to his speed and get that time
The video is comparing the last 100m in each of their 200m prs which incidentally is tied at 9.2 seconds. He is not comparing the time to Usain’s 100 meter record of 9.58 seconds.
Great video, been watching since 400 subs
I feel like watching these guys play tag would be very entertaining
I hate running. I really didn't think I'd enjoy this video so much. Hats off friend
3:55 seems bobbing head back and forth like an ostrich is a technique that rly boosts your speed
Bob Hayes ran 8.5 second 100m in the semi final of the 1964 Olympic games 4x100m relay
Its the fastest time of all time over 100m distance including the closing 50. Bolts best was 8.65. Hayes was capable of a 9.4 s 100m but never ran on a modern track which makes his 8.5 relay split even more impressive. He also ran faster than Bolt in the final of the relay with 8.6s
It would be great if this channel could do a feature video about Bob Hayes
Bob Hayes' time was actually 8.74 seconds electronic timing. That 8.5 was hand-timed.
What are you guys smoking? Nobody has ever run under 9.5 seconds for the 100m.
missinformation galore....do get your facts right. It was more like 9! not 8.5
@@andrewryan9087 Relay splits are faster than a 100m flat, because of the standing start. Relay 100m splits are regularly under 9s.
This is becoming my fav channel. Only found it as I was trying to find the name of a runner from Athens Olympic! Keep up the great work
Wow , thanks for showing this.
Mannnn sucks to be Xavier
This dude seemed super promising
He was and still is the ONLY collegiate athlete to accomplish the 100m/400m double with times of 10.09 and 44.53 respectively
No one accelerates in the closing stages of a sprint race, everyone decelerates. Carter just decelerated much less than anyone else in that race, like Carl Lewis and FloJo.
The legend that never came to be... So much potential :(
Love this tribute to the fallen athlete
Interesting turn of events in that race. Wondering if he never had the injury how would things have turned out for Bolt? 🤔
Just faster times...can't see him beating bolt in his prime, just pushing him like Gatlin and Blake
Imagine one of them being a kidnapper we are all done for💀
There is something incredible about your voice!
How many times has a championship 200m race been won from lane 8? That's quite an achievement.
Craziest finishers of all time:
100m: Donovan Bailey, Carl Lewis, Usain Bolt, Tyson Gay
200m: Xavier Carter, Christophe Lemaitre (and the guys above)
edit: There are several I didn't mention, I will get back to that.
Lyles
200m: Mennea (Moscow 1980 olympics)
Lemaitre 🤨
@@Bud_Jablonski I was thinking about his incredible finish at the 2010 European Championships, that won him the gold in the last meters, and his late surge in Rio 2016, that he secured him the bronze.
Hmm pretty sure blakes 19.26 had a faster closing 100m and 50m
Michael Johnson 19.32 mustve been closed faster too because he didnt have the 100m acceleration
So many sports and athletic videos have titles like the greatest or the most phenomenal or unbelievable. This one actually would live up to such a title

Stunning records for Xavier and for Usain Bolt
This reminds me of the unfortunate career path of Noah Ngeny that you covered in a previous video. It makes me wonder how many other athletes would have achieved great things, if it weren't for injuries.
The body goes where the mind commands.
0:33 wait WHAT?!?!
That’s amazing!
Dang that 200 was loaded. Sheesh! 😳
Interesting that it's a Finnish announcer in the recording of the race.
Most likely the only good covering of the race, since the finnish national media (yle) clips and shares everything for free and does major coverage of track and field / athlethics
Can you do videos on ultra running please
TRP does track&field and road races that features some of the big names in track. He speaks and breaks down these videos with thorough knowledge, he may not have knowledge of ultrarunning(the technical aspects,history,and the athletes)
what a well made video. brilliant storytelling. bravo.
Downforce from them sunglasses are insane!
You should talk about the 97.76 throw of Johannes Vetter
1:16 I can only imagine flying pigs winning the race
