Usain Bolt - A true "Monster" of his trade.

[Stevz]

Jamaican Usain Bolt left his rivals trailing to win gold in the Olympic 100m final with a new world record.

Bolt was well clear at 60m and although he eased down and started to celebrate 15 metres from the line, he still set a new mark of 9.69 seconds.

Richard Thompson of Trinidad and Tobago was second while American Walter Dix came third but they were well adrift.

"My one aim was just to be a champion. That is what I came here to do," said the 21-year-old Bolt.

"I told you I was going to be number one and I did just that. I got a great start. I was getting good starts all the way up to the final. I was getting better and better. I wasn't bragging... when I thought I had the field covered I was celebrating

"It was crazy - phenomenal."

Bolt, who becomes Jamaica's first men's 100m Olympic champion, insisted his decision to celebrate even before crossing the line was not designed to be disrespectful.

"I wasn't bragging," he said. "When I thought I had the field covered I was celebrating. I was happy."

As for setting a new world record, he added: "I didn't know I'd broken it until my victory lap.

"When I ran the earlier round I felt the world record was possible because it's a new track, it's fast. But I came out here just to win.

"I am just happy I did the country proud. I am Jamaica's first gold medallist, and I know the whole of Jamaica is going crazy."

I watched this yeserday (1:40 AM here in UK 17th august)

Their were a few laughs ... but to be honest.. He should stick his dick back in and get on with what he is supposed to be concentrated on..

If i was running with him there... no one likes broken legs after victory. =] If you get my drift =]

I think it would end up being vice versa. See that face? That's the proof of being in a lot of fights; where he's from, people rarely settle things with fists.

@Topic, LOL, He just had Walter D. for breakfast.

My mom was possibly screaming louder than Usain Bolt's mom when he won lol.

REPRESENTIN JAMAICA!!!

No, that's stamina.

3.2km in 8:30 is around 22km/h.

100m in 9.69s is around 37km/h.

I'm always a bit impressed when people are doing about that on bikes (40km/h) when I drive past them.. Having rockets stuck up your ass for extra speed should be considered cheating.

[Haerith]

i have a dif definition of fastest man than you.

i have more respect for people who can run 2+ miles very fast(8:30), instead of only running 100m.

i dont get how you train for an 100m, i find it all muscle power in that short of a distance, please correct me.

also thats a steady 22km/h, after the first 100m, that guy will prob be at a 5 km/h pace afterward...

3.2km = 2 miles
