Usain Bolt Fastest Man Alive

The jewel of the Olympic Games is undoubtedly track and field's men's 100 m final. A new upstart in Jamaican's Usain Bolt won the gold at a world record time of 9.69.

Usain Bolt cruised through the preliminary rounds and semi finals just toying with his competitors. He was glancing left and right to stands and didn't run through the 100 meters but just cruised through. When someone runs with that much ease and still destroys the competition, that's got to be very intimidating. At the finals, he still didn't run through the 100 meters, shutting it down at 80 m when he knew he had it in the bag!

Usain Bolt is just genetically a genetically gifted specimen. He comes from the powerhouse running nation of Jamaica and his lanky 6'5 frame just unfurls itself out of the starting blocks. Usain Bolt is only 21 years old and it's just scary how much he can lower his time when he has all the techniques.
