"Das ist der Hammer!" This phrase is gonna catch on.
Das ist der Hammer is a colloquial expression. It can be used to express both positive and negative surprise, disbelief or the sense thatsomething is brilliant or wicked. In this case I would translate Das ist der Hammer as that is brilliant (adjective hammermäßig)
Das ist der schwerer Hammer.

Just after Rudisha crosses the finish line, what is the announcer saying? It's at 3:49 and 3:51, sounds like HA-deen.
Also, at 4:04, he says something "...arbeit" followed by "...bitte", which was said with emphasis, and sounded kind of cool.
Please jump in and translate. Danke!

He says "Er hat ihn!" which means "he got it".

He says "...mit Maßarbeit" which literally means "with precision work or neat work". I don't find the "bitte" part though.
Hey that was my handle!
