Insane Bolt - New World Record 100M

Post by Guest on Sun Aug 16, 2009 3:50 pm

9.58 and he didn't even try! For such a coccky, nonchalant little prick, he sure is awesome to watch, unless you blink a lot.

Wang, nonchalant little prick? He's the best there is...period. He's allowed to be Wang, particularly in a sport known for it's massive egos.

9.58 is INSANE.

He's not really a prick, actually. It's part of the "attitude" his advisors tell him to have. You just need to hear him talk about his mom to understand it :^^^^:

Here's the video of the race. Watch the other racers check the clock after the finish as they comtemplate a new career.

I love the guy.

I never said I didn't like him. I tend not to post on people I don't like, to many negatives.

Did you see the race yet Hemlock? The guy is awesome. Didn't even look like he tried to go into 5th or 6th gear. Granted, it could be that he is in 6th gear already and he just makes it look that effortless. At least he ran through the finish line this time.

If he would learn how to get off the blocks like everybody else does, he could run 9.10 seconds. Facepalm

Yeah, I saw it, I posted it heh. He does make it look effortless. He's got an edge over happy that happy can never ever match....size. At 6'5" Bolt averages 4 or so less strides over the course of a race than the average person. That right there has got to be worth a tenth or more. This is could set a record that's unbeatable for decades by the time he's through.

My point wasn't that you didn't like him. It was that, in a sport that is notorious for massive egos, this guy having one shouldn't surprise anyone. He might be the greatest athlete in the world.

Seriously this word filter is lame. We are allowed to say prick but not happy?

Sounds like if Bolt learns to use the blocks more effectively and gives it all, he'll do it

OK, clear up my confusion, please. What is "happy"?
