Watch when Usain Bolt showed how fast he is against regular, everyday people
@Source: ghanamma.com
Back in 2016, Usain Bolt lined up for a 100m sprint that looked nothing like the Olympics, and the result made headlines for all the right reasons.
The eight-time Olympic champion joined The Late Show with James Corden for a friendly race against Corden, his TV crew, and actor Owen Wilson.
When the starting gun fired, Bolt barely needed to accelerate. While everyone else sprinted flat out, Bolt cruised past at a relaxed pace, finishing well ahead before they’d even hit halfway.
Viewers loved the clip for its brutal honesty.
“The fact that Bolt is jogging and still faster than people running their hardest is hilarious,” a fan said.
Another added; “When Bolt runs, everyone else is racing for second place.”
A handful of Corden’s crew gave it their all just to stay within sight of the Jamaican superstar, but nobody got close.
Bolt still holds the world records for the 100m (9.58 seconds) and 200m (19.19 seconds).
He remains the only sprinter to win the 100m and 200m at three consecutive Olympic Games, cementing his place as the fastest man in history.
