      @@g1kluang I don't see why he would have to chicken out. The guy ran a 19.32 in the 200. Maybe he gets beat for the first 150 of a 200m race and then beats Bailey the last 50m? Who knows what would happen? Bailey could be a better 150 runner. What about the 200?

    Can anyone tell me why sprinters decelerate before the finish line. Wouldn't it slow their acceleration. Michael johnson crossed the finish line like he was still in the middle the race at peak acceleration. Whereas usain bolt almost jogs before finish line. Is there a technical reason behind it or is usain just doing it to show off?

  • @malligrub

    This performance is every bit as good as Bolt's 19.19 really given it was 1996. I remember watching this and it was just, like...WTF? How the hell? It seemed like a mistake, like it couldn't possibly be real. People thought this record would stand for 50 years, some said forever. A sub-19.7 was a freak event back then until Johnson came along. Even he only did it a few times in his career. Until Bolt came along and reset what everyone thought was humanly possible...

      Bolt had injuries, just like Johnson, a track athlete has a short career, something you should know. Johnson also was losing (world championship races), it is smart to go out on top because at that time you have the best opportunities, once you start losing races you use to win, its time to hang it up and transition to real life.

      Bolt has 9 Olympic gold medals. With 3 Olympic world records. Which he broke twice.
      He is, by miles, the greatest of all time.
      Michael has even lost his American record to Noah Lyle. So, what's the fuss.
      Let me give you this, Yohan Blake is a far better sprinters than Johnson.
      Also, Bolt raced among the fastest ever sprinters yet he excelled.

    @manjay49 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    On the slow motion replay, at @ 15:57 or so, you will see MJ "stumble" in the blocks. He recovers, then exits after the gun. Why this was not called a false start is a bit of a mystery. According to IAAF rules, the runner must remain motionless once the runner is in set opsition. Set means: stay totally motionless. And the runner is supposed to maintain that *static position* until the gun goes off. The only expalnation I can come up with is that the "stumble" was not detected by the blocks or by an official. But the blocks are electronic, and are with fitted with pressure sensitve detectors. It must therefore be the case that the "stumble" did not register. Nonetheless, he recovered his static position before the gun went off. I saw this on TV in real time in 1996.

      Rich Crosby Would you people stop with this height bullshit! Height has absolutely nothing to do with speed. There are so many taller sprinters than Johnson & the cannot run this fast. Usain isn't fast bc he's tall. There are a few others Usain Bolts height and they aren't even close to the speeds of Christian Coleman 5'8" & Yohan Blake at 5'11". Stop reiterating what other people make up that's absolutely false.
