So pathetic. he'll never forget this for the rest of his life.

knew he couldn't win and faked an injury.
He saw that Coleman and the Brit went into the leg with a lead on him and then started pulling. So he faked an injury because he knew this year (given his 'nutrition' isn't what is used to be) he couldn't stop them pulling away, let alone catch them and win like he would have in previous years. So he saved his ego and image rather than scrape another bronze with two guys running away from him.
Same thing Michael Johnson did against Donovan Bailey in their 150m race.
Wow...that was one nasty run stopper! 😨. In fact, there's been so many run stoppers in these Worlds, like nothing I've seen before. Athletes dropping like flies, grimacing in pain, DNFs all over the place. It's like they're exactly human again.
BOLT loves to party with ladies who have plenty of junk in their trunks. He is enjoying the good life since Rio.
The fake MJ injury that kept him out of the national championships which meant he didn't qualify for world's. Needed a wildcard.
Letsrunners are big on conspiracies but low on intelligence or evidence.
What he normally does is win wrote:

Yep, sour grapes, poor sport crowd. I mean, Jamaicans.

Bolt didn't fake anything. The other thing he did not do was train for this meet.
Pretty obvious Bolt didn't want to compete this year. They mentioned he was only competing for his sponsors.
you all are so insane. bolts form was not right from the first step of the 4x1.something was wrong. and that injury was not faked

Um, because he didn't need to run nationals to qualify.
If you pull something for real you don't squat down effortlessly 2 seconds later.
Mr sceptical don't take this personally and try to stay calm but if you think bolt was faking then you need to see a psychiatrist. He would have won that race had he not torn his hamstring. He was only a stride behind on the side camera angle and in that position he was already making ground like he always does . There would only have been one out come, he would have powered his way to the front especially after his off run in the 100 final. The British team are champions and did great but Britain's fastest 100m runner wasn't in the team and couldn't get near bolt (having an off day) in the 100metre final. Bolt has never shirked in his life .
What happened? That an athlete can pop a hamstring anytime bro.
I'll give the guy the benefit of the doubt.

Not the biggest Bolt fan, but it looked like a legit injury; it happened at the exact point when a sprinter is most likely to pull. Also, it would take a person of exceptionally low morals to fake an injury on a relay when you are in medal contention.
I bet on Donovan Bailey in that race. The payoff was more than 2/1. I think I had +225 or something like that.
As always I'll take the lead with an elite talent and force you to run me down. Conventional wisdom is comically screwed up in that regard. For example, the so-called dream horse races invariably have Secretariat looping the field in the stretch as if they are stiff speed horses collapsing on cue. I can never stop laughing, or mocking the people who actually believe that crap. Secretariat was more than capable of winning that race on talent but no chance he could do it with his preferred style. Stick the greatest speed horses of all time in a race like that and not all of them are going to stop. Just the opposite. At least one and probably several would put up the performance of their lives. Only the morons who believe in raw time alone and have no comprehension of situational factors would be stupid enough to think a deep closer could ever win that race.
Anyway, I was always suspicious of Michael Johnson's injury because a few of us in Las Vegas understood the possibility beforehand. We all wagered on Bailey due to the criteria I outlined above. I distinctly remember one guy in our group standing in the Bally's sportsbook and matter of factly saying Johnson will quit and start limping around if he senses he's finished. None of us laughed or dismissed the notion. This was several days before the race.
When pride and reputation are each so immense you can't stand to have the world remove the aura of invincibility. Preferable to attach an asterisk, even if unjust.
It's 20 years later but as soon as I saw Bolt pull up today I immediately thought of Michael Johnson. Didn't take 1 second before I thought of that and nothing else. Then I looked carefully at the replay to see if there was facial agony simultaneous to the leg stall. That's the key variable.
Yes, I have to say it was there. I'm not fully convinced ego wasn't the primary factor but there could have been a minor injury that Bolt played to the hilt.
Without the juice he basically can't win. He proved that in this WC.
IAAF had given him protected status and he was doped up to his eyeballs from 2008 onwards.
Now that WADA has finally flexed their muscles, it is game over for the Jamaicans.
Usain Bolt was the dirtiest drug cheat in the history of track and field.
To those who are praising him and calling him 'an ambassador for the sport' . . . you are way too trusting of the system, or you are just being clearly disingenuous.
It was unlikely to be faked.
Bolt lost the 100 because he got s poor start and he's 30.
He then cramped in the relay.
You guys need to take a good hard look at yourselves.

Gatlin won the 100 and he's 35 yrs old!
Gatlin didn’t cramp up in the relay and he's 35 yrs old!
What's going on here? 🤔
Gatlin is a 2 time convicted doper, Bolt is clean
