It’s better to have people ask why did you retire then to have them ask why you didn’t.
Wowwwww
Oh shiiit thats a good one
Motivation is probably the answer for both
Very true
The best possible answer
Retiring when you’re at the top is poetic. It leaves people wanting more.
But he was not at the top anymore, his body was done.
Disagree. Letting the young bulls come in, beat you and continuing the cycle of top dawg is in my opinion more beautiful and natural. Nobody beats time. Someone will eventually beat Bolts record, it’s happens in every sport.
Forever seen as great! We are left imagining what more could he have accomplished.
@@user-ey4ut9uc8wfuck allat, better to see a legend retire when he’s proven he’s great than watch him wither away slowly and become a laughing stock
Nah passing the torch is better. Being the top dog is the best but eventually your time will come handing it over is a really cool way to retire
"You can see into the future" Best response for side shade
Right ✅️

Isn’t shade. His records will be broken. It’s only a matter of when. Humans evolve into faster, stronger beings.

Some great people come around, once a century. Usain Bolt is just one of those people. Stay safe, champ...
For true greatness he needs guidance from Allah
Agreed fully, he is one of the greatest athlete, legend, a hard worker and a genetic individual talent, but the real reason for his retirement and lack of motivation was mostly the development of ped testing and the new subject lists of the wada. and don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this to diminish his achievements, but because it's true.

Whether his record is beaten or not I'm just glad I had the pleasure of seeing him run ... Boss 😎
I'm here to agree whit u
All records will be broken
@@nboss968tell that to Javier Sotomayor
It is inevitable
Not all evidently all world records won't be able to be broken, there has to be a stopping point. For example nobody is going to run the 100M in 5 seconds are they!
He was so great that running fast is now personified as Usain Bolt
his name literally is Bolt!! ⚡️⚡️ its crazy he was literally born to be fast
This is such a great comment. I wonder why it didn’t attract so many likes.
A beautiful example of sociolinguistics
Yep, in my youth it was Karl Lewis !
@@henssouu He was a great athlete
Best to be able to retire young at the top of your game than to retire older when your whole body is falling apart and you are not able to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Thanks for representing us so well Usain. You are the greatest!!! RESPECT!!!🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
He's a smart man!
It's the same with boxers
He will be known as the fastest human for a long time.
His 9.58 s is unbeatable.

@@fabiancarreno7427as technology and science advances someone will beat 9.58 just probably not in our lifetime
@@fabiancarreno7427 Its not bro, before him there was asafa and gatlin and that wasnt like 50 years ago, it was 2 or 3 years before usain won his first olympics, so the person who might beat the 9.58 might be arround the corner, its a matter of time, obviously this person wont beat usain´s record by running the 100m in 8.72 seconds, but who knows, human beings evolve ;)
@@fabiancarreno7427Possibly IF it's more than just a human accomplishment (that is PEDs). In reality, if Bolt's runs were truly "clean," I would expect them to be exceeded in the next 20 years. It's the same reason women's 100m thru 800m records (all set in the 1980's) are still there after 34+ years.
This man is so fast, he's been to the future and he knows he still holds that record.

Bolt broke the record by a wide margin.
He didn't JUST break the record.
It seems like someone will break his 200m record relatively soon, a couple guys have gotten pretty close. His 100m record on the other hand, is one of the biggest leaps forward we have ever seen. It could be another 40-50 years before it's broken. That's how far ahead he set the bar.
@@michaelshields6326I know neither of us truly know, but I doubt either will be broken soon.
And full disclosure, I wanna acknowledge that I was wrong once already.
I thought Michael Johnson's 19.32 would last at least 50 years.
I thought 19.32 would be safer than a FloJo 10.49
19.19 is insane.
19.19 is inconceivable to break. Only Yohan blake has come close, 19.31 isnt close @michaelshields6326
facts@@WaveRider1989
Blake actually covered the distance quicker than Bolt's 200m record, but had slower reaction time. Blake was amazing - just unlucky to be running at the same time as bolt lol.
He had the best personality in Athletics, miss you Mr Bolt ⚡🔥💥 🖤💛💚
Usain Bolt is a true legend! It was always a plessure to see him do what he did best.
The brotha did what he wanted to do. He set records, and left while on top on his own terms; I applaud him for that 👏🏾👏🏾✊🏾🔴⚫🟢
The best thing you can say at the end of your life is that u did your best and smashed all your goals.
No...THE best thing is..."I have peace of mind".
And then what? Seems at little short sighted...
Take the first half of your sentence, leave off the last part. Not everyone is gonna achieve or smash their goals, but if you truly did your best and can live with knowing that fact, even if you failed, then you'll have peace, I think

They KNOW they might never earn fortunes,but they are happy, content,able to pay their bills but they have "peace of mind".
It is a priceless thing
I remember watching him set the 100m world record live, that was back in 2009, 15 years ago! And still no one has come close nor does it look like anyone will for a long long time. Usain Bolt wasn’t just a once in a generation kind of athlete, he’s a once in a lifetime kind of athlete.

“He’d win the marathon, me the sprint.”
Maybe one day Usian Bolt's record will be beaten, maybe not... But his legacy will prevail, not because of his records but because he showed the world what others before him had thought was impossible...
What Usian Bolt, Michael Phelps did for the world of sports in general and for their individual sport is thankless...❤
Its not a question of maybe it's a question of when
@@mustang8206 Sooner than we think. If we look at the history of the 100m records it was beaten quite regulary, every 3-5 years a new guy show up.
So I will see the recod getting beaten a few times before I die. Will I ever see again an athlete having such a dominant career I'm much less certain.
“It’s not what you did but how you did it”

@@MrOmerDalor it has been 15 years and nobody has come close. To be honest, 100m athletes are slower now than 15 years ago.
@@MrOmerDalorNah it's gonna take a while for someone to beat that record, it's already stood for 15 years and sprinters have gotten far slower than they were then. Mostly due to Bolt quite literally bringing up the competition and making the other athletes run faster to compete with him, also there's just less talent now than then. But yeah probably in our life times it'll fall as everything advances
Usain Bolt knows that someone will beat his fastest time, but being 3 times Olympic champion is different it takes a lot of focus.
Of course he knows. He’s just joking around. He knows, Jamaica knows it and we’re hoping another Jamaican. For sure, someone will.
it will not be broken in our lifetime. Y'all are crazy!

Can relate. As an Olympian whose goal was to make it to Rio and train through Tokyo, my motivation to continue full time was done at 31.
You competed in triple jump yeah? That used to be my favourite event to compete in.
Mine was 24 when I retired
@@UnleashedTraining101 it’s not for the faint of heart lol
I totally understand and get him and what he is saying. I retired from the Army at age 29 as a Heavy Combat Engineer. I'm currently one of the few black female Army construction 👷♀️🚧 veterans and I retired with two Honorable Discharges. One in National Guard and one in Army. I became a combat construction worker because of 9/11. It was the most selfless act I could think of to do to help those in NY even though I'm from MS. I'm an artist and decided to tear up my art scholarship and join the Army and put my art skills to really good use serving my country. I saw construction as another form of Art. I am currently a stay at home mother of two, who is a child of God and a Baptist homeschool teacher to them. I thank God for allowing me to serve my country and approving of my current lifestyle. I joined the Army age 19 and retired age 29. I'm 42 now. All praises sent to the Most High!!!! 🙌 🥰🙏💯
He was constantly injured his whole career, he worked so hard to just stay in the game that long. It wasn’t early it was late.
You know atheletes at his level that never got injured?
Thank you. Most just look at the spotlights and not the background. Man was a freak of nature. His running form was nonexistent, and his height was unheard of. Once he was upright and running, if you weren't already ahead of him, there was no catching him. He was just that good. Still pissed at 2008, him slowing down at 20m still irks my soul. If he had run all the way through the line, his time would have been I BELIEVE 9.5 or so.
@@orangeyellow-me1pz I’ve not heard of many elite athletes with scoliosis though!
@@user-wu2lh7di2l your point?
....yet he still broke records! A true freak of nature.
Made the Olympics worth watching for me. the Jamaican teams .the competition it was all just insane
Most of them were caught doping 🤣
He's so humble. N to know that many olympians train their entire lives for just 1 event. Even if u get gold, there's no guarantee of money or sponsors to have (as also stated in the documentay 'The Weight of Gold': depending on the sport) but Usain knows this and respects everyone who works hard for it ❤
They got to love what they do
Nothings wrong with retiring at 31 while your body is still able to move without being painful he's able to play with his children run jump and lift with your family enjoy being you LOVE BEING WITH YOUR FAMILY LOVE YOU ALL THE WAY FROM THE BAHAMAS 🇧🇸 ❤❤❤❤
Am 46 and my whole body in ache and pains so why not maybe if have stopped working in health care 21 years ago a migth be in a healthier position in my body?. So I think early retirement in any job is best to do or think about the after effect 😢😢😢😢😢.
I don't consider retiring after competing in three Olympics to be an early retirement. Especially in the events he competed in. Although Allyson Felix, competed for quite some time in the Olympics.
usain bolt didnt give fathertime a chance to beat him!!! he is a wise man!! 💯
What people dont understand is that records are meant to be broken, so it is not matter of if, but when. (in the meantime, he has a incredible record)
What you don't understand is humans are reaching the pinnacle of athleticism, which is why records are only getting minutely broken instead of big record jumps like before
@@williamfarr9129 yeah, they have been saying that since the beginning, humans cannot physically run faster, and yet it keep happening. It's called evolution. Where there's a will, there's a way
@@cesardiaz3002 look at the rate at which the record gets broken, it has majorly slowed down and this is because we are hitting a physical limit of muscle and fast twitch complexities
@@williamfarr9129 I agree to a point. As we stand right now we are reaching a pinnacle but it is matter of time that we evolved yet again and the race will start all over again.humans have defy logic and science and I know they are limits for this generation but in 200 years those limits will be blur
@williamfarr9129 you don't understand that humans never stop evolving. His record 100% gonna be broken some day.
Best Reason To Retire ! He Is An Absolute Legend
He was a beast when he did what he did! High bar achieved - GIB. HONOR TO YOUR GREATNESS!
Usain Bolt, the legend 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This man is a sporting legend. A true Olympian.
After getting to the zenith of any mountain you must go down into the valley and that is what he is expressing. That “depressed” feeling comes after winning the award, speaking on the stage, getting married (honeymoon stage ends), graduating and getting your diploma or degree, things that you have worked so hard to get or achieve etc etc. it is normal to have a lack of motivation therefore it is critical for you to take the time to discover what is NEXT to give you renewed Zeal and Zest for the next Zenith!
He did the right thing. As impossible as it seems, he was starting to slow down and the field was catching up.
I remember watching Bolt run during the 2012 Olympics.
And it was astonishing, how easily he won his races.
People says he was doping. No, he was the right built for sprinting
He was the fastest at retiring too!

2008-2009 has the FASTEST HUMAN BEING levels of sprinting capabilities it's been more than a fucking decade and no one comes close to 9.7s and still you live in a delusion just like that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂loll
Go get some depression pills.😂😂😂😂
Usain is already in the future because he is so fast. He said he doesn’t see anyone beating him
Nah white athletes now run under 10. It was believed to be impossible 10 years ago. As soon as a black kid gets to be 6'3" and has Bo Jacksons quick start, we'll see that record beat. Now sub 9:40 is another story, that might take 50 years. Mathematically speaking it was unthinkable in the 20th century that anyone on any kind of enhancement could go bellow 9:70, mere 8 years into the 21st century he did it more than twice.
Dang I was too late
9.58 is a tough record but with advancing technology being released every year, it will be broken soon.
New types of tracks, shoes, and the right person with the right stride ratio and the record will be gone.
As a Jamaican, we hope that it's never broken but if so, let it be by another Jamaican.
I've already beaten it.
15 years and no-one has gone sub 9.7 since. Unless we are talking about a springbok self-identifying as a human, or a genetically modified man, I doubt it will happen soon.

Man Usain Bolt is special as a kid i was watching teach and he was the first person I laid eyes on when it came to track and their will never be another person like him.
I remember exactly where I was when he set the current world record almost 15 years ago. Bolt is an iconic, entertaining, era-defining, and truly electrifying athlete. I absolutely loved watching him. He deserves a long and happy retirement
I don't think none of us alive now will live to see Usain Bolt's record be broken.

He chose the right time for sure. You could see his performances were starting to come down. Always end on a high
“You either retire a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain”

Thank you for the memories. Most anticipated events I ever watched in my life. Congrats to you. Absolute 🐐.
He wasn't just fast, he was an entertainer through and through. It will be hard for anyone to captivate the audience like he did. I mean, has any track and field athlete ever been more mainstream? Nah, not globally.
Bolt will always be a talking point for pundits ‘til the end of time. His retirement was impeccable. That’s perfect timing.
The world was blessed to have had Bolt and Phelps competing in Olympic sports during the same time period.
9.58s UNBREAKABLE. For the next 50yrs .. There isn't a 6'5" Human with 4.3m stride per second and 10.4m/s speed with 40 steps for the 100m ALIVE...This is what it will take to break 9.58s
Except there is :) just they don't compete
There probably is in Jamaica or Africa somewhere doing regular job. Yohan Blake was play cricket before.
Everything is possible the fastest 60m split is by a short 5'4 Chinese at 6.29c

But there's one thing they all have in common that arrogant, self-belief. The almost narcissistic conviction that I am the best .....this guy is a true champion ❤😂
Would be fire if he just showed up at Paris and won another 4 golds! 😂
His speed is unbeatable, and imagine he ran and relaxed watching back at the competition, he's like flash
Bolt will always be one of the greatest athletes to ever live.
Blake's 200m was faster than Bolts before wind adjustment, and he also covered the distance faster after his start (because Bolt's reaction was faster, his overal time was also faster) so it's conceivable that the 200 record could fall (although we've hardly seen an athlete on par with Blake never mind Bolt) Nobody has ever come within a tenth of a second of his 100 time, I think that will stand until the sun explodes. To call the guy a generational talent is an unspeakable understatement - I think we've seen the marathon equivalent in Kelvin Kiptum, but I'm just sorry he never had the chance to put his world record completely out of sight for the next 100 years
Bollocks
There will always be better people, as long as we evolve.
@009Daft600 well yes, but being able to run 100m in under 9.6s or a marathon in under 2hrs aren't exactly selection pressures - obviously we become more efficient and we'll develop better gear and training regimes in the future, but these are narrow advantages that won't single handedly take 0.2s off your 100m or 2 minutes off your marathon - in our own lifetimes, we won't see another like Bolt or Kiptum, that's what I'm saying
@@joelmacinnes2391you dont need selective pressure. every single record in history was done with practically the same genetic makeup. the difference IS in culture, information and technology
That was a stand alone race blake ran while bolt did it in a world championship having ran heats in 100 and 200 and all that

Two of the greatest 200m sprinters, Usain Bolt and Michael Johnson. Day made! 👌🏾

For someone to beat his record, it would have to be someone who has his same physical make up/height/ground contact speed and turnover. Just don’t see it…the odds of finding similar characteristics and athleticism is too rare. He WILL BE the greatest of ALL time for generations, after generation, after generation
My greatest athlete of all time all sports combined
8 billion people. at least a few others will have physical potential to be able to beat him no? new training methods... new regulations (dont nitpick on regulations point)... etc. everything stands to point that at least in the time from now to the end of human history, someone will beat usain bolt's record? Well it's almost certain. No matter how you try to phrase it with pseudo science, you are statistically: exaggerating/wrong.
@@noahkettunen1686 No

Loved watching him run. I'm in the USA, but always rooted for him and his relay teams.

I think someone with the talent of Bolt who will not slow down towards the end will get a record one day, I’m not saying he never tried but he could’ve had a bigger record in 2012 according to his coach, he said himself his coach was unhappy with him in his autobiography.
9.53 and 18.99 were in his legs on the right day with the right conditions…Shame we never got to see that sub 19 200.
Why ruin your legacy purely for egos sake....
Exactly, many sportsmen and women retire way too late and can leave a damp patch on their legacy. The greats know when to call it a day
@@ollielynch4733not really, if you have extreme passion for the sport you’ll continue, look at Ronaldo and Messi, they coulda retired but they still continue
@@orang9134they're in a team tho..that's different..they can have a bad game and the team still wins..bolt has to do all the work himself.
@@philbertgrant3744 okay but the guy said “many sportsmen”
Usain Bolt will always be one of my favorite athletes! He showed the world what he was capable of doing and always did everything with class! ❤
Between him and Phelps no one will ever come close. Immortality is theirs.
Bolt retired before someone beat him, very smart, now hes the undefeated camp and not the dude the underdog beat 😂
People have beaten him, but no one’s ever broken his world record
Bolt was never undefeated
@@allencastro9344he was afraid of Gatlin that is why he quits and retired
Zero percent passion hundred percent sponsorship need to accept by all athletes😂😂
