The man is simply too fast. I honestly think it will be a very long time before that record is broken by anyone else. It may never even be broken. Insane Bolt is simply amazing.

What does that translate to the 40s?

there is no translation to a 40. But Bolt is setting times that will not be broken for at least a generation when he is done

Gay has to be pissed. He ran a 9.71. That's ridiculously fast. It was obvious at the olympics that Bolt could smash the record if he took it seriously.

Some day we'll look upon Bolt the same as Ben Johnson ... when they finally catch him.

Why because Carl Lewis said so...there is a greater possibility that he is clean. Just because some people cant believe it doesnt mean its not true.

He is a physical freak just like micheal phelps. These guys work hard, don't get me wrong but they have a distinct advantage. The taller you are, generally the less fast twitch muscles you have. Bolt is different and that allows him to have a high turnover and still have his long stride.
