That was definitely 1 of the craziest things I've ever watched. I love the Olympic games and have watched the track and field events since the 88 games when I was a little 5y/o kid.

I read the article back in the day which was tell if bolt did not slowing down in the last 30 mts, he could hit around 9,55 to 9,56 s. That could be Bolt best 100m.
It should say more about the men’s 2012 final. It featured the 5 fastest men of all time and has to be the fastest overall finishing times for a whole field
@@splitz7758 it was greater than that. And i love football/soccer and all other team sports. World Series, Super Bowl, World Cup...it was greater than that. Most World Cup Finals are terrible games.

Usain Bolt never used to disappoint...always performed when stakes were high...happy and blessed to have witnessed his greatness...Greatest track and field athlete of all time.
His stride is too long. He has slower start but as long as he is right with you by 50m he going to win. He doesnt need to move his legs as fast and he still covers more ground quicker
Not really ... for example in which race could he have done so .... in his 2008 Olympic victory it wouldn't have took off over 0.1 of a second if he didn't celebrate
There needs to be a study on how 99% of all Olympic 100m sprinters are Black, and then how a tiny country like Jamaica can produce so many of them. Genetics, diet, lifestyle, etc? Just incredible how a country with just 0.04% of the world's population can have up to 2-3 of its athletes among the 8 finalists in both men's and women's 100m sprints
chaoticdays Blacks either have more fast twitch fibers, larger ratio of fast:slow fiber, or larger fast twitch fibers. As to Jamaicans, more about culture and weather. Warm weather allows more time spent running.
In Jamaica, the 100 meter event is like what soccer is to Brazil.when u r a kid your dream is 2 become either an Usain Bolt when u grow up, or 2 be a reggae superstar like Bob Marley.
In Jamaica track is very popular that's why they produce so many talents. In other countries track isn't that popular and there are many other sports which will bring you way more money if you're really good at them.
Add to the greatness of Usain Bolt is that he didn't fail in doping test even for a single time in all Olympic games he participated...lot of respect to this all time great

Amazing ...that most of the top sprinters in History are from Jamaica or born there...Ben Johnson , Linford Christie , Donovan Bailey , Asafa Powell , Yohan Blake and of Course Usain Bolt... and I know I’m missing a few
