He broke his own record that he set in the Olympics last year by 0.11 secs in the 100m mens final at the world championships.

That's unfair Charles. Look at that guys' physique. He's in his own league

 

[alexrugby]

Fights against himself :lol: :lol: :lol:

He doesn't want others to break something too? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Come on Steve-O !

The guy is amazing for sure but you can't believe that it's all natural, can you ? He's ******** on the other 7 guys, including some that have been convicted of doping. The last person that was so ridiculously faster than anybody was Ben Johnson and we all know how it ended.

Ben Johnson was 9.88 wasnt he? He would have been destroyed by Tyson Gay (US record) in that last race, never mind Bolt.

Sprinting is like Cycling though. Success comes with instant suspicion. They go hand in hand.

You certainly do wonder but personally I'm praying he stays clean. If he is caught doping thats the end of the sport for a long long long time.

I assumed the same when I heard about the Olympics heats last year, but I had a look at the semis and final back then and reckon he's a natural.

If anything's suspicious it's Gay's 9.71 - he doesn't have enough muscle to produce that power ... unlike Lynford Christie!

Seriously, I think Bolt is the best ever, a better version of Michael Johnson. Amazing strides. And I'm someone who gave up watching the sprints in the Christie era because of the Mr Universe can-can line at the start of every race.

 

[dullonien]

It's totally unfair to assume that he's doping. Look at how he runs, he just flows gracefully across the track, massive strides means he's a freak of nature, not a cheat!! Drugs in sprinting usually translates into big muscles and a very powerful running style, now go look at Bolt.

I was totally stunned last night, he's the best there's ever been and it couldn't of happened to a nicer guy. He cracks me up, doesn't look like he takes anything seriously, yet is the fastest man to have ever graced this earth. Can he go faster still? Yes I think he will, 22 is very young for a sprinter, his peak is most likely still to come, sub 9.5 should be within reach.

I have to mention Tyson Gay. To run 9.71, a new American record, yet still finish a distant second is just insane. The guy seemed a bit dissheartened in his interview on BBC after the race, appeared happier today though in the medals ceremony.

Bolt is awesome, hope he carries on for years to come.

 

[shazbooger]

I think Bolt is a natural but its understandable (to a degree) to suspect something dodgy when a group of islands with **** poor facilities and a minimal anti-drug regime, are capable of consistently producing the talent that they do.

I of course also subscribe to the New Zealand and Ireland are the biggest undiscovered drug cheats in the World of Rugby.

 

[cyRil]

For Gay, to run as fast as he did, faster than any American has ever run before, with a time that would have broken the world record prior to last summer's Olympics, and still be made to look like a muppet must just break his soul.

 

[jawmalawm24]

I reckon he'd be pretty good at pulling burglaries because nobody in the whole world would be able to catch him lol. I hope they're all clean thou, it'll be shocking if they was all on drugs.

I wonder how many athletes take drugs and still get nowhere hahaha that must be the worst thinking to yourself that you've been chemically enhanced and still getting nowhere that'll just mean you plain suck balls.

 

[Nickdnz]

Would anyone else love to see Usain Bolt as a rugby winger? He would carve up everyone!

 

[William18]

He runs fast. It's cool to watch. To me that is all Usain Bolt is, not a freak and not some sort of god. just a guy born with wheels.

Pity the French don't use some of them, they might present a challenge to someone if they did.

Was thinking about this, and I suppose you could look to the distance runners produced by the African nations. Kinda makes my point above a bit moot.

Jamaica we are the bobsled team.

What kind?

The West African forebears of the current day black population throughout the carribbean and America's are naturally very good athletes. Throw in the fact that only the most physically fit Africans were sold into slavery and that a very small proportion of those sold actually survived the trip across the atlantic, and you have the most "refined" gene pool in the world.
That's why these guys are so amazing.

Jesus I like that. Thats probably one of the best arguements Ive seen in a while. And I'm not even being sarcastic.
