What makes Hines' Night of Speed 9.9 HT,10.03 FAT (+0.8 m/s wind) most remarkable is that it was done at sea level on a chewed up cinder/dirt surface @ Hughes Stadium to beat Bob Hayes' then world record of 10.0 HT, 10.06 FAT (+1.1 m/s wind) on cinders. It was the first time anyone had run a LEGAL OFFICIAL sub 10 clocking under ANY official timing conditions on a natural non-synthetic surface. 4 heats were run prior to Hines setting the mark. It was in the first heat that Hines ironically recorded the first 9.8 HT clocking in track history. The time was disallowed, however, b/c of an illegal tailwind of +2.8 m/s (6.26 mph). That's only +0.8 m/s over the allowable wind speed of +2.0 m/s (4.47 or 4.5 mph). Many sprinters aren't running 10.03 FAT even on these new artificial track surfaces. Hines' 10.03 was the sea level WR until James Sanford broke it almost 12 yrs later clocking 10.02 secs on a SYNTHETIC track @ UCLA's Drake Stadium in May of 1980. It is STILL to this day the fastest that anyone has run 100 meters on a NATURAL NON-SYNTHETIC SURFACE.
Fantastic breakdown of Jim Hines' remarkable accomplishment - really appreciate your insight! It's heartening to see recognition of Hines' extraordinary talent. Initially, our plan for this video included only a brief mention of him. However, the more we delved into his story, the more we realized his exceptional legacy. He is, without a doubt, one of the most underrated sprinters of all time, if not the most. At one point, our focus almost shifted to creating a full Jim Hines documentary (which is still a tempting idea). Thanks for expanding on the depth and impact of his achievements, loved reading that!
You're right Bolt's time is faster ON A SYNTHETIC SURFACE but he has never officially raced on a natural non-synthetic surface (dirt/cinders). The point being is that Hines set the bench mark from which all great sprinters aspire to perform at and that is to run sub-10 seconds for 100 meters. He is also the only sprinter in track history who has recorded sub-10 seconds under ANY official timing conditions on a natural non-synthetic surface. Bolt has not. Now there is no doubt in my mind that Bolt would would run sub 10 on cinders or dirt if he were to compete again but unless he comes out of retirement Hines is still officially the fastest sprinter @ 100 meters on a natural non-synthetic surface.@@demingjiang9493

Your point hits close to home. We are deeply passionate about sprinting, and it's true-the shadow of doping casts a long, sometimes heartbreaking shadow over the sport. Mainstream documentaries on track (i.e. 30 for 30 on Ben Johnson, Marion Jones etc.) seem to always be about doping. We wanted to make a video that shows there is more to the sport. And to honor the achievements of Jim Hines, Kim Collins, Asafa Powell etc and present the data officially recognized by World Athletics. Gatlin had violations, we just didn't want to go down that rabbit hole. Doping is an issue. How much of it is going on at the NCAA and Pro level now? Impossible to say (except for those that test positive). Is it more now than say 10 or 20 years ago? Again, very difficult to determine under the assumption that most don't get caught. As much as I hate that side of the sport perhaps it's worth doing a separate deep dive on it in another video. I'm not sure how much that helps a sport that is slowly dying but maybe it would. My knowledge of PEDs and the latest testing methods is limited so I don't want to speculate until we've done the research. Thank you for watching, and for engaging
At one time we thought the sub 10 equilent for swimming was sub 50 for 100m Freestyle. Now its sub 48 even with a roll back in suit rules in 2010. Coaching, video analysis / analytical technology are driving times forward at a crazy rate. Water is approx 800X more dense than air so technique matters a lot.

You've made impressive progress despite challenging circumstances and self-coaching isn't easy. Your improvements reflect your dedication and consistency. To tackle your current challenges and optimize your performance, start by addressing injury management. With muscle tightness and strain, prioritize warm-up and cool-down routines that include mobility exercises, stretching, and massage to ease tight muscles and prevent further injuries. Check out this article we posted on 3 step warmup routine outperformsports.com/track-and-field-warm-up/ If you've hit a plateau, vary your routine to target different muscle groups, incorporating plyometrics, intervals, and resistance training to provide new stimuli. Also build in rest and active recovery days into your training plan. Sometimes taking a week or more off can help. Mental preparation is also crucial; overthinking can hurt performance. We just posted an article on mental practice that I think will really help you outperformsports.com/tips-to-prepare-for-a-track-meet/ (we're also going to post a video with a guided visualization session soon that should help). Lastly, without a coach or psychologist, self-education becomes vital. You're on a solid path, so keep pushing forward while remaining adaptable and consistent!

Jim Hines' time was altitude assisted - it would be a 10.05s time at sea level. Calvin Smith was also altitude assisted. Carl Lewis was the first man to break 10s legitimately without altitude assistance. Sub-10 is routine now for any elite sprinter - sub 9.9 is the elite level now and sub 9.8s is the truly highest level
It would be a higher number for sure. But less than 200 people in world history did it. So, even if everyone in the world tried to do it, only very very few would be able to.
@@AxelPRC "If over 7 billion people tried doing this one thing... A couple of thousand of them would be able to achieve it." Idk if you're trying to bash the sub 10 or prove how difficult it is, cos your comment just affirmed how difficult this achievement is.
@ZekPlaysHD a few thousand is tiny tiny amount in respect to the 7 billion on earth. Let's say 5,000 out of 7,000,000,000....that's nothing. If running 100m was the sole endeavor of humanity thousands would do it. That's still a tiny amount
@@AxelPRC yew, you and I are definitely on the same page in that case! I reckon it's a bonkers achievement to get a sub10 no matter how many people manage to achieve it.
Great short documentary. This, folks, is why running a sub 10 second 100m is the pinnacle of human achievement. There is no other physical or intellectual achievement where less than 200 people in history have accomplished that achievement.
Thank you! Agree, I don't think many people realize just how rare a sub 10 100m is. Also Jim Hines 1968 record is one of the most underrated achievements in sport.
thats an insane statement to make. How many men formalized the idea of a computer? 1 (Alan Turing). How many men are the best basketball player ever? 1 by definition. Etc.....
@@alexmungan9950 You misunderstood me. How many people achieved something then less than 200 others replicated the achievement? Bear in mind that if every human on the planet attempted to run the 100 in less than 10 seconds, very few would manage to.
the first 4 men to break 10 did so at high altitude. Carl Lewis' 9.97 in 1983 should have been the world record. Bob Hayes at 21 in the 1964 Olympics on a cinder track ran 10.06 which possibly çould have been a sub 10 even with 1968 equipment and conditions.
Interesting, I saw an interview with Jim Hines and he was adamant that if anything the altitude hindered his performance. Definitely agree, Bob Hayes' 10.06 at the 64 olympics was remarkable and hands down would have been sub-10 on a composite track. Anyone who has ran on a cinder track knows what a massive advantage modern tracks are, especially considering the length of spikes required on cinder. Also Bob Hayes is the only athlete to win a gold medal and a super bowl ring, amazing athlete.
After 50 years of hearing self-proclaimed experts complain about Hines, Evans, Smith and Beamon's marks it's basically been proven that altitude is pretty much a non-factor.
just insane status bro Mind Bowing I am 16 and i Run 10.87 in 100 meters with just a practice of 2 months and Outperform Helped me out a lot to improve my technique!!
Really appreciate it 🙏. Sounds like you've got some serious potential, that is a great time for your age and practice level. Keep after it and you'll be in the sub-10 club!
While it's undeniable that PEDs have been used in track and field, doping controls and new technology to curb their use is getting better all the time (i.e. biological passports, the use of AI to detect anomalies etc.) I haven't seen any evidence that their use has increased over the past 5-10 years. Especially at the college level. However it's impossible to know exactly how many athletes are using them unless they get caught. I think that the other factors mentioned in the video play a much larger role. Advances in sports science and more sophisticated training (athletes today have access to better coaching, nutrition, recovery protocols, and biomechanical analysis than ever before). The development of better track surfaces, footwear technology, and starting blocks. Also the globalization of sprinting has expanded the talent pool. We haven't really done a deep dive in to the modern era of doping, but its a good idea for a future video (even though I hate that side of the sport).
@@OutperformOfficial You make a great point, many things have been advancing human performance and, no doubt, and it will be a great video. You sound like you'll approach the issue head on. Someone else will do, if you don't. In respect of AI, my only note is that AI is but a rebranding of what we've always had, or, if you want, the evolution of programming. My point being that if they haven't found anomalies yet, AI will not change this. My suspicion is that what is being undermined is the test development for those new drugs, particularly because they act at genetic level. Keep doing a great job.
Awesome informative video and a great perspective on the sub 10 sec 100m history! My country New Zealand is yet to have anyone break 10 for the hundred though we had a woman break 11 sec for the hundred for the first time last year! Also, I'm not sure if you know if anyone has broken 10sec for 100m on a grass track? Curious to know 🤔
Thank you for the kind words! Sub 11 is big time, getting close on the men's side with 10.08. I'm not aware of any official sub-10 second records on grass, that would be an serious feat.
@@OutperformOfficial i mean, you can multiply this with 3,6 to get the km/h, which is over 36. You then can maybe relate to this speed more easily i.e. when driving tru a village
The stats in the beginning make no sense. You should compare the odds of winning a world cup if you're a pro player to odds or running a sub-10 if you're a sprinter. Number of players matter. Otherwise I can invent a sport and boom : 0% of people ever achieved a perfect 436pts score in my sport.
Thanks for your comment! The stats at the beginning of the video are comparing these achievements to the general population, highlighting their rarity on a broad scale. I see the point you are trying to make however millions of people play soccer and sprint, so these comparisons are valid. Inventing a new sport isn't comparable because it doesn't have the same widespread participation and established history as soccer or sprinting.
The first runner to officially break the 10-second barrier in the 100 meters was not German, but American sprinter Jim Hines. Haven't come across a German sprinter breaking sub 10 before 1968.
Gatlin's story serves as a complex chapter in track and field history with strong opinions on both sides. Unfortunately his career includes significant achievements alongside controversies over doping violations.
He's not listed as sub-10 on world athletics for U20 which is the data source we used. His 9.86 was when he was 20 I think. Bummer about his injury from football.
That is a difficult comparison, takes a lot of money and luck to get into F1. Agree that it is incredibly difficult and some are super human (Senna, Schumacher and Hamilton). Everyone can sprint and see how fast they are.
sub13 is rapid anywhere in the world. The general population probably couldn't even complete a 100m sprint. Look at the variance in make-up of everyone. Your time is great 🎉
I agree with Nat. You're actually really quick especially for masters. I'd say around your time is fast for the average person. We've just been desensitized to other times, because of the super humans around us. In the elite world of sprinting, 9.8-10.0 is not considered fast, because of the aliens that ran 9.7, 9.6 and 9.5.
@@khumokwezimashapa2245 thanks man appreciate your guys answers. Make a different whenever you don't compare with those freaks 🤣 they have developed unreal speed
Doing a video on the 100m without talking about doping (except for Johnson) is an achievement especially when highlighting the performance of Gatlin and Powell... I'm not even convince there was one single sub-10 clean.
Thank you for your comment. It's true that doping has been a significant issue in track and field, casting shadows over remarkable achievements, including the 100m. However, it's also important to recognize the rigorous anti-doping measures and advancements in sports science that support athletes in reaching these milestones cleanly. Skepticism is understandable. Although it's impossible to definitely prove one way or the other, I think many athletes today achieve sub-10-second times through dedication, advanced training, and a strict adherence to anti-doping regulations. If the 'Enhanced Games' takes off maybe we'll get some better data.
The 100m is actually one of the least effected events in track and field by doping. The throws and middle distance events have shown themselves to benefit more from doping (look at the women’s records, as women benefit from doping more than men). What you’ll notice is that certain events on the women’s side aren’t anywhere close to what they were 30+ years ago, which indicates that anti doping measures have been effective in reducing their use to a significant degree. Even equating Johnson’s doping to Gatlin and Powell is really intellectually dishonest, as he doped systematically and egregiously for years, while the other two tested positive for less amounts of less potent drugs, outside of competition. In all likelihood their doping probably had a very small or negligible benefit to their race, unlike Johnson most certainly had an unfair advantage.
It's genetics. Can a person born with brown eyes can become blue eyes, for example? Or a dark-skinned person with black hair can become white-skinned and have blond hair. impossible . So this is sprinting
@@ChrisMend0428training doesn’t make you run sub-10 unless you have the genetics for it. Genetics do not give you the result, but they make it possible to achieve the result.
Towards the end it does go into the reason why (democratization of training and information). However it's a fair point as that is not the primary focus of the video. Title changed.
You still need the genetics of those fast twitch fibers in your muscles. Saying it's not genetic is just silly. Some people are more disposed to being weightlifters due to body composition, some basketball because of height. Genetics plays a huge roll
What a crock. Of all sports, track takes the least amount of training. There’s hardly any skill about it, technology and availability explain this phenomenon period.
Track and field, particularly sprinting events like the sub-10-second 100m dash, requires an immense amount of specialized training, skill, and discipline. The simplicity observed from the outside belies the complex blend of biomechanics, nutrition, psychology, and sheer effort required to compete at this level. Anyone who runs a sub-10 has dedicated their life to sprinting.
To the video maker, you have a Ton of errors in the 5 minute mark of the video.. you said Jim's 995 stood for 10 years after being set in 86, then u said in 88 Carl broke it, then u said Jim's 995 stood for 20 years. Even tho u had just said Carl and another guy had broken 995 with a 993.. check your story here and edit the video to make sense.
Video maker here. I think you need to watch that part again 🙂 Jim set the WR/OR in 68 not 86. The WR held until 83 and the OR held until 88. So the math is 68-83 =~15 years for the WR and 68-88 = 20 years for the OR. Hopefully that helps!
@OutperformOfficial all good, wasn't tryn to be rude to ya, just wanted to help, as it confused me. But the clarification is good. 86 and 68 is an easy mix up and a big difference.
And HTH does he not give mention to Letsile Tebogo whos steadily proving to be a force to reckon with! Bumboclottt!!! The man is competing 100m, 200m, 300m, 400m!!!

Hello outperform
I have question related to my performance
I m just 20 years old usually i do sets my working on my fitness, making strength and power for speed and speed endurance ( muscles endurance and aerobic endurance)
I usually do 60 m 100 m and 400 m in these time
In my previous year 2023 performance
50 m dash - 9 sec
60 m - flat 10 sec
100 m - 17 to 18 second
400 m - 1 min 40 second
These all timings without training from 2020 covid pandemics & my body were become skinny & malnutrition,no muscle mass ,loss of strength and power
I keep training on my body and track performance in 2023 from april to december
Approx after 8 months consistency with 2 competition trials
In December 2023
50 m dash - 6.2 second + (1.5 m/s) wind
60 m dash - 7.2 second +(1 m/s) wind
100 m - 11.8 second ( 1m/s)
200 m - 40 sec to 25 sec
400 m - sub 60 ( 57.5 second)
But these all performance done by self coaching
But i feel disappointed my 100 m times
60 m dash is well in this time sub 7.5 second
100 m dash 12 to under 14 second in this time
400 m 60 to 65 second in this time

I think a lot of it has to do with just the ever increasing prosperity and opportunity the world is seeing, especially in most disadvantaged groups
Great point!
Also the amount of people
Su Bingtian has some very interest research on this as well
Jim Hines' time was altitude assisted - it would be a 10.05s time at sea level. Calvin Smith was also altitude assisted. Carl Lewis was the first man to break 10s legitimately without altitude assistance. Sub-10 is routine now for any elite sprinter - sub 9.9 is the elite level now and sub 9.8s is the truly highest level
Terbaik Azeem💪🏻
Im hoping to get at least 10 seconds for the 100m sprint this year but what's a good time for the 200m?
Depends on how old you are and how much experience you have
As 10sec is for 100m 20.2 is for 200m
In general your 200m just over double your 100m
Im pretty confident ANYONE will take ATLEAST 10 seconds to run the 100m
20 second, if you have bad endurance try 60 meters indoor
Not everyone is training to be a sub 10.00 sprinter. You take all the sports athletes in the world and I guarantee that number would balloon
It would be a higher number for sure. But less than 200 people in world history did it. So, even if everyone in the world tried to do it, only very very few would be able to.
If everyone in the world dedicated their lives to running the 100m there would be thousands breaking 10sec
@@AxelPRC "If over 7 billion people tried doing this one thing... A couple of thousand of them would be able to achieve it."
Idk if you're trying to bash the sub 10 or prove how difficult it is, cos your comment just affirmed how difficult this achievement is.
@ZekPlaysHD a few thousand is tiny tiny amount in respect to the 7 billion on earth. Let's say 5,000 out of 7,000,000,000....that's nothing.
If running 100m was the sole endeavor of humanity thousands would do it. That's still a tiny amount
@@AxelPRC yew, you and I are definitely on the same page in that case! I reckon it's a bonkers achievement to get a sub10 no matter how many people manage to achieve it.
R.I.P Hines J.
Great short documentary. This, folks, is why running a sub 10 second 100m is the pinnacle of human achievement. There is no other physical or intellectual achievement where less than 200 people in history have accomplished that achievement.
Thank you! Agree, I don't think many people realize just how rare a sub 10 100m is. Also Jim Hines 1968 record is one of the most underrated achievements in sport.
@@OutperformOfficial Absolutely. 9.93 in 1968 before modern tracks and sprinting shoes were around
I think the theory of relativity remains quite high on the list of human achievements
thats an insane statement to make. How many men formalized the idea of a computer? 1 (Alan Turing). How many men are the best basketball player ever? 1 by definition. Etc.....
@@alexmungan9950 You misunderstood me. How many people achieved something then less than 200 others replicated the achievement? Bear in mind that if every human on the planet attempted to run the 100 in less than 10 seconds, very few would manage to.
Good video 👍🏾
Thank you!
the first 4 men to break 10 did so at high altitude. Carl Lewis' 9.97 in 1983 should have been the world record.
Bob Hayes at 21 in the 1964 Olympics on a cinder track ran 10.06 which possibly çould have been a sub 10 even with 1968 equipment and conditions.
Interesting, I saw an interview with Jim Hines and he was adamant that if anything the altitude hindered his performance. Definitely agree, Bob Hayes' 10.06 at the 64 olympics was remarkable and hands down would have been sub-10 on a composite track. Anyone who has ran on a cinder track knows what a massive advantage modern tracks are, especially considering the length of spikes required on cinder. Also Bob Hayes is the only athlete to win a gold medal and a super bowl ring, amazing athlete.
After 50 years of hearing self-proclaimed experts complain about Hines, Evans, Smith and Beamon's marks it's basically been proven that altitude is pretty much a non-factor.
@@bsims6275I am not sure from where you learned science but thinner air causes less resistance high altitude does mean lesser pull of gravity.
Hayes 10.06 was absolutely insane as was his relay leg in the same Olympics.
3:23 "Nah, I'd Win"
Ben Johnson and Donovan Bailey won for Canada but are Jamaican… crazy respect to Jamaicans
just insane status bro Mind Bowing
I am 16 and i Run 10.87 in 100 meters with just a practice of 2 months and Outperform Helped me out a lot to improve my technique!!
Really appreciate it 🙏. Sounds like you've got some serious potential, that is a great time for your age and practice level. Keep after it and you'll be in the sub-10 club!
Ben Johnson broke it before Carl Lewis. They both took steroids 🤷♀️
Imaging not talking about the obvious improvement on PEDs 😂
Yea its pretty much the drugs and not much else...
Short answer: yes
Long answer: obv yes
Agree!
I just had a track meet today 14.4 100M 6:11 1600M I’m 8th grade.
Nice, those are some great performances on 2 very different events! Keep it up 👊

Great for Balance.
What is the role of performance enhancing chemicals in all this rise in sub 10sec runners?
While it's undeniable that PEDs have been used in track and field, doping controls and new technology to curb their use is getting better all the time (i.e. biological passports, the use of AI to detect anomalies etc.) I haven't seen any evidence that their use has increased over the past 5-10 years. Especially at the college level.
However it's impossible to know exactly how many athletes are using them unless they get caught.
I think that the other factors mentioned in the video play a much larger role.
Advances in sports science and more sophisticated training (athletes today have access to better coaching, nutrition, recovery protocols, and biomechanical analysis than ever before).
The development of better track surfaces, footwear technology, and starting blocks.
Also the globalization of sprinting has expanded the talent pool.
We haven't really done a deep dive in to the modern era of doping, but its a good idea for a future video (even though I hate that side of the sport).
@@OutperformOfficial You make a great point, many things have been advancing human performance and, no doubt, and it will be a great video. You sound like you'll approach the issue head on.
Someone else will do, if you don't.
In respect of AI, my only note is that AI is but a rebranding of what we've always had, or, if you want, the evolution of programming. My point being that if they haven't found anomalies yet, AI will not change this.
My suspicion is that what is being undermined is the test development for those new drugs, particularly because they act at genetic level.
Keep doing a great job.
Nothing beats race
Does abrahams run sub 10 if he is in his prime today?
Donovan Bailey did a 9.84 in 1996. You forgot to put Canada on your map
You're right, Bailey was fun to watch. However that map was just showing the top 5 countries. It would be cool to see all of them though on one map.
And every single one of these guys is going to try and come after Usain Bolt’s 9.58
and they will fail.
Love from KASHMIR ❤️
Awesome informative video and a great perspective on the sub 10 sec 100m history!
My country New Zealand is yet to have anyone break 10 for the hundred though we had a woman break 11 sec for the hundred for the first time last year!
Also, I'm not sure if you know if anyone has broken 10sec for 100m on a grass track? Curious to know 🤔
Thank you for the kind words! Sub 11 is big time, getting close on the men's side with 10.08. I'm not aware of any official sub-10 second records on grass, that would be an serious feat.
The democratization of information is truly remarkable, let's fight to keep it that way. Dare to say no to censorship.
Agree!
Malaysian sprinter in the video!
Yep, 4 x 100m NCAA champion Azeem Fahmi, along with 2 of his teammates Dario Mateo and Makanakaishe Charamba
Ain't it amazing what science can do? Perhaps Peter Thiel's "open Olympics" should be an accepted thing.
But what about the evolution of PEDs?
and what about a sub 10 sprinter who will live until 100?
That would indeed be unicorn!
over 10m/s is crazy
That's a great way of looking at it. Sub 10 is sprinting over 10m/s, I never really thought of it that way 👍
@@OutperformOfficial i mean, you can multiply this with 3,6 to get the km/h, which is over 36. You then can maybe relate to this speed more easily i.e. when driving tru a village
The stats in the beginning make no sense. You should compare the odds of winning a world cup if you're a pro player to odds or running a sub-10 if you're a sprinter.
Number of players matter.
Otherwise I can invent a sport and boom : 0% of people ever achieved a perfect 436pts score in my sport.
Thanks for your comment! The stats at the beginning of the video are comparing these achievements to the general population, highlighting their rarity on a broad scale. I see the point you are trying to make however millions of people play soccer and sprint, so these comparisons are valid. Inventing a new sport isn't comparable because it doesn't have the same widespread participation and established history as soccer or sprinting.
It is for a non West Aftrican
Fair enough 🙂
Most Southern regions African countries have 9.8’s for 100m national records
The first runner with sub 10 seconds was German 🇩🇪
The first runner to officially break the 10-second barrier in the 100 meters was not German, but American sprinter Jim Hines. Haven't come across a German sprinter breaking sub 10 before 1968.
is that azeem fahmi?
Indeed it is!
Gatlin surely needs an asterisk against him for, you know, being a repeated doper?
Gatlin's story serves as a complex chapter in track and field history with strong opinions on both sides. Unfortunately his career includes significant achievements alongside controversies over doping violations.
Performance enhancing supplements
My question is , will there ever be a sub 9?
Micah Williams run 100m under 10 seconds at age 19
He's not listed as sub-10 on world athletics for U20 which is the data source we used. His 9.86 was when he was 20 I think. Bummer about his injury from football.
Cole Beck :)
pharmacology op
What a dumb comparison at the start... everyone competes at living to 100 and maybe 0.001% even try sprinting as a sport.
Pretty much everyone has tried to run as fast as they can at some point
@@livwake yet most of them never trained and devoted their life to that.
Not in Jamaica
Still much much easier than to be f1 driver or even more f1 world champion
That is a difficult comparison, takes a lot of money and luck to get into F1. Agree that it is incredibly difficult and some are super human (Senna, Schumacher and Hamilton). Everyone can sprint and see how fast they are.
Im a amateur master sprinter. What is considered fast for regular population . I do under 13 but feel slow
sub13 is rapid anywhere in the world. The general population probably couldn't even complete a 100m sprint. Look at the variance in make-up of everyone. Your time is great 🎉
I agree with Nat. You're actually really quick especially for masters. I'd say around your time is fast for the average person.
We've just been desensitized to other times, because of the super humans around us. In the elite world of sprinting, 9.8-10.0 is not considered fast, because of the aliens that ran 9.7, 9.6 and 9.5.
@@khumokwezimashapa2245 thanks man appreciate your guys answers. Make a different whenever you don't compare with those freaks 🤣 they have developed unreal speed
Luck = genetics = possibility of sub 10sec sprint*
*Condition applies of years of training.
Genetics is nothing when we talking about sub 10 and I will prove it soon
Yeah but more people strive to be billionaires then try and sprint well
Fair point.
Azeem!
its juice
I think its harder to run sub 6.5 in the 60m than it is to run a sub 10
Doing a video on the 100m without talking about doping (except for Johnson) is an achievement especially when highlighting the performance of Gatlin and Powell...
I'm not even convince there was one single sub-10 clean.
Thank you for your comment. It's true that doping has been a significant issue in track and field, casting shadows over remarkable achievements, including the 100m. However, it's also important to recognize the rigorous anti-doping measures and advancements in sports science that support athletes in reaching these milestones cleanly.
Skepticism is understandable. Although it's impossible to definitely prove one way or the other, I think many athletes today achieve sub-10-second times through dedication, advanced training, and a strict adherence to anti-doping regulations.
If the 'Enhanced Games' takes off maybe we'll get some better data.
At this peak Bolt could have run sub 10 seconds being 10/12lbs overweight. A 10 second 100 was a *jog* for him.
The 100m is actually one of the least effected events in track and field by doping. The throws and middle distance events have shown themselves to benefit more from doping (look at the women’s records, as women benefit from doping more than men). What you’ll notice is that certain events on the women’s side aren’t anywhere close to what they were 30+ years ago, which indicates that anti doping measures have been effective in reducing their use to a significant degree. Even equating Johnson’s doping to Gatlin and Powell is really intellectually dishonest, as he doped systematically and egregiously for years, while the other two tested positive for less amounts of less potent drugs, outside of competition. In all likelihood their doping probably had a very small or negligible benefit to their race, unlike Johnson most certainly had an unfair advantage.
It’s called juice 💉😊
It's genetics. Can a person born with brown eyes can become blue eyes, for example? Or a dark-skinned person with black hair can become white-skinned and have blond hair. impossible . So this is sprinting
So wrong. You gotta have years of training to run under 10 seconds. It doesn’t abruptly happen
@@ChrisMend0428Exactly lol, i think the problem is pple dnt know how genetics works.
@@Ok-oo2kh exactly, genetics is like 1% of it. Training is the rest of the 99%. Me personally as someone who sprints, genetics doesnt matter
@@ChrisMend0428training doesn’t make you run sub-10 unless you have the genetics for it. Genetics do not give you the result, but they make it possible to achieve the result.
@@ATHLETE.X I desagree
9.8 is the gold standard
It does seem like 9.8 is the new sub-10 now.
@@OutperformOfficialno bro only 180 people broke sub 10 in history
This whole long video and still didn't answer the question as to why...
Towards the end it does go into the reason why (democratization of training and information). However it's a fair point as that is not the primary focus of the video. Title changed.
Nahhh it’s not genetic, everyone can become fast just as long as you have the right training nutrition and dedication for many years
Absolutely, everyone can dramatically improve their speed if they put in the work.
You still need the genetics of those fast twitch fibers in your muscles. Saying it's not genetic is just silly. Some people are more disposed to being weightlifters due to body composition, some basketball because of height. Genetics plays a huge roll
@@OutperformOfficialthat is false not everyone can run sub 10 only 180 people broke it
hahahaha completely false, about 0.0001% of the population have the genetics to run sub 10 seconds.
@@JimmyKim-fb1jiThey didn't say anyone can run sub 10, just that anyone can improve their speed more than what it is already
What a crock. Of all sports, track takes the least amount of training. There’s hardly any skill about it, technology and availability explain this phenomenon period.
Talk about a bad take
Track and field, particularly sprinting events like the sub-10-second 100m dash, requires an immense amount of specialized training, skill, and discipline. The simplicity observed from the outside belies the complex blend of biomechanics, nutrition, psychology, and sheer effort required to compete at this level. Anyone who runs a sub-10 has dedicated their life to sprinting.
To the video maker, you have a Ton of errors in the 5 minute mark of the video.. you said Jim's 995 stood for 10 years after being set in 86, then u said in 88 Carl broke it, then u said Jim's 995 stood for 20 years. Even tho u had just said Carl and another guy had broken 995 with a 993.. check your story here and edit the video to make sense.
Video maker here. I think you need to watch that part again 🙂
Jim set the WR/OR in 68 not 86. The WR held until 83 and the OR held until 88. So the math is 68-83 =~15 years for the WR and 68-88 = 20 years for the OR. Hopefully that helps!
@OutperformOfficial all good, wasn't tryn to be rude to ya, just wanted to help, as it confused me. But the clarification is good. 86 and 68 is an easy mix up and a big difference.
Sall good!@@djevans614
