The fastest man on Earth -the road to the 100m final.

WOW!!!

BOLT TAKES IT!

He could have ran 9.60 but he jogged the last 20 meters again.
 
Haha, that was class. First person to break the 100m world record going sideways!
 
That was unbelievably fast. He could have stopped to tie his laces and still won.

Well maybe not but damn why didn't he try to run as fast as he could.
 
I would wonder why he wouldnt go for the fastest time he possibly could..
 
He was looking round with yards to go to see who was with him. No one was. Doing that and celebrating before the end in a 100m race. Ridiculously amazing.
 
That is unbelievable. Absolutely destroyed the rest of them without trying. I only wish that he tried, that could have been sub 9.6 easy.
 
Why is the winner of the 100m sprint the fastest man on earth?

They run 50m indoor and some outdoor meets

Or perhaps the fastest man is the quickest to perform a lap of the track. If a savage wild beast was chasing you, and safety was 400m away, you'd rather be a specialist at that distance than the 100m. You might initially get away quicker, but you'd soon be dog meat...

I think its the way it looks, but actually, in terms of average speed, 200m is quicker...
 
Plus, if you run that fast over 100metres, the beast would give up.. :lol:
 
Awesome result. It is a shame he stopped running after 90 meters :lol: Would have been nice to see that time.
 
That was unbelievable. He was showboating so much towards the end of the race that he was practically going backwards. And he still got 9.69. Brilliant.
 
fecking insane what he was doing, why didn't he just go flat out? There guy could seriously get under to 9.6 if he improves his start and goes flat out from start to finish.

200M record must surely fall too?

That is a record that might even be beyond him but if there is one guy who could break it, it is him.

He can break it, just might be a little to early for him in these games. You can never write him off after that performance though.
