      LOL! And if some kid get out in front of him, he would also be more likely to hit that than a car going the same speed (even if the car of course, is a lot worse for the kid, IF it hits). His starting acceleration during a race (the initial push) is very fast (even compared to car standards), but he can't stop or turn very fast (stopping distance is probably about the same as the acceleration distance would be, if he started by just standing upright, without the foot steps and the normal stating position - maybe even worse, because the shape of the body makes it easier to accelerate than decelerate when running).
      High speed turning is probably the worst, since that has to be done with very little contact with the ground all the way (during deceleration, he can at least increase the deceleration rate, as the speed get down and he get more contact with the ground)

    I'm not sure under 9 seconds is impossible, partly because many used to say that Bob Beamon's long jump record would never be broken. It was broken in just over 20 years. There was speculation for a while that Bolt, if he applied himself enough, got even faster, had the perfect race, possibly at altitude with thinner air, and ran to his absolute best, might stand a chance of going under 9. BUT....there has to be a time that going below is impossible... For example, a human could never run the 100 meters in 2 seconds of course... So would love to know the absolute definitive answer on this.

      Saying "This record will never be broken" is usually just meant as praise of an extraordinary performance.
      However: if said in earnest, it is essentially accusing the record holder of cheating. Obviously, if one person can do it, then eventually another will be born who can too.
      A 9 second 100m dash is not the same though. They aren't anywhere even remotely close to that... most athletes have a potential of 9.8 or so, some extreme outliers are down to 9.7 or 9.6... but even Bolt never did 9.5.

    To increase ground reaction a primary aspect that is often ignored is the increase created by a good arm action. Try standing on a set of scales and aggressively bringing your arms up. Note the effect on the scales. Also note how the change of arm motion at the end of its swing can reduce your body weight thus aiding flight. Research into this aspect of sprinting is too often neglected when compared with reaction times, leg power, cadence etc. In addition the arms counteract the eccentric thrust that is created by leg forces not being applied directly to the central line of the body. So wider hips and narrow shoulders do not encourage efficient application of power when sprinting. A rotating body core caused by eccentric thrust not being counteracted by the arm action reduces muscle efficiency in all limb muscles connected to it. So reducing 100m times depends on leg and arm actions plus all the other factors. Certainly it can go lower than it currently is.

He set a world record with his body partially turned towards the camera and his arms out in celebration for the last 20 meters or so, plus his start was only mediocre. Oh, and he wasn't even running the 100m until the year before that to boot.

    I find it a bit odd that they didn't factor height / stride length. I contend that a reason why Bolt is so remarkable in sprinting is his height. Bolt is the tallest Olympiad winner in the 100m ever at 6 feet 5 inches. The second tallest was 6 feet 2 inches (Carl Lewis). The fact that Bolt maintained a high turnover rate being that tall is astonishing and is a huge factor in his speed. Bolt ran the 100m sprint with an avg of 41 strides. That's about 2.439m per stride or 96 inches. If you could increase your stride length by form or just by extension of your height (such as the case with Bolt), over the course of a 100m race you could shave off 1 less stride. In a 100m sprint, 1 less stride to the finish line is a HUGE advantage. During my sprint training days I was told that starts, RPMs and stride length were the holy trinity in speed.

    • @theshermantanker7043
      @theshermantanker7043 2 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      that's bs, the stride length doesn't count at all; if it did every 4 legged animal would be slower than us considering their less stride length. If we could manage to move our legs faster, the more steps we can do means more force that pushes us and the faster we get.

    The problem with running the 100m in 9 seconds is the fact that the faster you run, the less time you have to accelerate since the race has been reduced by 10% of time. So you would need accelerate or get up to top speed so ridiculously fast that it's not a matter of increasing top speed but more an issue of achieving top speed faster. To get to 9 seconds, you'd need Usain Bolt levels of top speed and get to that insane top speed within your first step or two, which is humanly impossible.

    Bolt has never been the fastest out of the blocks but once he gets up to speed, his top speed is unmatched. In an ideal scenario it might just be possible to get close or even beat the elusive 9.

    100m in 10sec is already very fast. Imagine you cover a distance of 10m in just one sec. That will be about 36km/h speed. Imagine you go at that speed constantly and you will take just a little more than an hour to complete a marathon.

    There will have to be another freak of nature like Usain Bolt with his height, turnover, and strength, but whose mechanics are better than Bolt’s.He may have been able to exert more force if he didn’t have that side to side sway.He also was able mentally to rise to the occasion, the person will need that too.

      The MIND is everything. That's how Tennis player Novak Djokovic become the GOAT. I dont think the guy that beats Bolts record will have to be as tall as him. He could be 6 1" or 6 2". But he has to have perfect weight distribution in his physique. Fast legs. And perfect technique..And supreme mental strength.
      If a man standing 5 8" TRAYVON BROMELL. Can run 9.77.
      A Man standing 6 1--6--2 with everything he has. But a slightly wider stride could run 9.55 or better.
