Usain Bolt : Usure Boleh!

Saw Usain Bolt the other day breaking the world records in 100m and 200m in the World Athletics Championships in Berlin. It seemed like watching a horse being chased by 7 cats. Some one did the analysis of his performance and reported the below figures. For those who understand athletics, you will know that this chap is really superb and he can improve those figures further.

His report card:
100m: 9.58 sec
> Speed: 12.35 m/s = 28 mph = 45km/h (running from PJ to Puchong and back in 1 hr)
> Completed in 40.92 steps

200m: 19.19 sec
> Completed first 100m (bend) in 9.92 sec
> Completed 2nd 100m (straight) in 9.27 sec. This was faster than his 100m world record.


> His confident smile before the start of 100m & 200m


> He actually crossed the finish line at 9.3 sec (unofficial electronic time) for 100m, and at 18.9 sec for 200m


> His Testimonial


> His trademark victory celebration
