Usain Bolt. An amazing 9.58. Incredible.

2. And he even looked to the side before crossing. Sheesh. Save some speed for the rest of us.

3. Man. Gay runs a 9.71.
Good enough for a US record. Still got smoked.

5. Most freakishly dominant athlete I've ever seen
Edited on Sun Aug-16-09 11:26 PM by Awsi Dooger
I don't think that's a stretch. Most basic physical activity ever, running fastest over a short stretch of ground, and no one is comparable. They said today he is a meter and a half faster than anyone in history.

I watched it live and it looked like Bolt had more to spare. He was glancing right, at Tyson Gay, early in the race. Plus, he's clearly not in as good a physical shape as last year in Beijing.

6. He'll break 9.5 easily.
The question is how much lower can he get it before he's done.
