The man is a beast.....
I remember when Carl Lewis 9.84 stood for years and years, the Green broke it, and it trickled down into the 9.7's....
But to shave .1 seconds off your world record, is simply immense.
Take a bow that man.
Question is, more to come? Sub 9.5???????

He's friggin insane.
Very, very quick man. Can't see the record getting broken by anybody else but him for years to come to be honest.

He didn't even lean over the finish line, that's got to be worth a few hundredths.

Should he go to 200m, and go for for the 19.62...
Easily do-able, but I don't think he's interested in 200m.

He already has the 200m W/R 19.30s.
He starts his heats Tuesday.

I didn't realise he was 6ft 5" too...
Isn't there talk of him doing the 400m too?

I would love to see him and michael johnson in his peak against each other for the 200m.
I know he beat his 12 year record but the constant competion against each other would be great.

Their has been talk of it, but he'd have to put in some serious training to do so as its a massive step up (if you're fit you can just sprint both 100 and 200m, where as 400m is all down to fitness).

Read that as Micheal Jackson at first!
He'll break his record on the 200 as well, he tries harder in that event iirc (like Marty said, is his speciality)

Some people just have the gift in life.
I think he's one of those people
Compare him to "Dwaiiiin" (i just think of the Fat two characters from harry Enfield) drug taking chambers, who could only muster a 10 flat....
Even the other dude ran a 9.72, which isn't to be sniffed at!!!

Yeah, ONLY a 10 flat, pffft, anyone could do that.... he's still the 6th fastest man in the world!
Was said in the other thread in sports day, feel sorry for Gay, not just because of his surname, but he's beating world records, but unfortunately there's someone going even quicker

Watched it last night and that time Bolt set is ridiculous! I still think he could have ran quicker last night, he still seems to relax slightly with 8-5 meters to go.
I'd love to see him run 100% in perfect conditions. I think he'll set a low 9.4 which will remain a W/R until machines take over the world and compete in the 100 meters!
pew pew pew pewwwww

You know something special has happened when you see someone like Michael Johnson (a true legend) is left totally speechless!
BBC footage - Bolt leaves Johnson speechless
