Was ahead from the start and it was clear he'd destroy the competition and his time.
9.71 Gay -- would have been a WR not that long ago.

THIS IS HISTORY
Powell #3 ... no longer choking quite so hard.
This was absolutely amazing to watch.
Reaction time = 0.146
Very good for Bolt...
Ha, this is ludicrous. Gay gets blown out yet still runs 9.71, and it doesn't even seem like much ... cripes.
Wind = 0.9 m/s
I was watching this 100 with my Mother, who's 77 years old.
She watched it, then said to me "there's something weird going on", then frowned and shook her head. This is a woman who likes the pole vault and high jump. She is not a t & f novice.
Let's see what the future holds for Bolt. Good for him, but I wonder...and I'm NOT the only one who does. Hey, it may not even be a drug, but some sort of neural stimulation using some technique or method we haven't heard of or somesuch. We will see.
For now: congrats to him. Hard to dislike the guy as he seems to be enjoying every minute.
Let the arguments begin.
Wow, and Gay popped a 9.71, too.
yawn
video?
-0.9m/s, that is
to recap
9.58 Bolt
9.71 Gay
9.84 Powell
Siiiiick

...but now they're' on the triple jump...
Funny,last year when i mentioned this as a time he was capable of, I was laughed at.
He was looking around a bit towards the finish, he is capable of a 9.55 EASY.
Yes, your bitter, old grandmother knows all. Give me a break. About 90 percent of old people are of the "kids these days/the world is going to hell in a handbasket" mentality.
She should go back to knitting if she can't appreciate that.
That was unreal.

Pretty even on reaction time (Gay 0.144, Bolt 0.146). The top end speed of Bolt is unbelievable. Can't wait to see the 200 now.
1 4 656 Usain Bolt JAM 9.58 (WR) 0.146
2 5 1183 Tyson Gay USA 9.71 (NR) 0.144
3 6 665 Asafa Powell JAM 9.84 (SB) 0.134
4 3 111 Daniel Bailey ANT 9.93 0.129
5 8 1116 Richard Thompson TRI 9.93 (SB) 0.119
6 1 492 Dwain Chambers GBR 10.00 (SB) 0.123
7 2 1110 Marc Burns TRI 10.00 (SB) 0.165
8 7 1215 Darvis Patton USA 10.34 0.149
9.58 w/ -.8 wind & reaction of .146
with +2.0 wind
~9.45
w/ .100 reaction
~9.41
O_O
This is absurd. I never thought he would sniff 9.55 but the wind does not lie...
Thanks for the breakdown...after today, I really think he will do <9.50 before he's done. Another 0.01 could come off if he could just look straight ahead until he finishes the race...
