This is one of the greatest world record histories of any event.

I'm an old man - ran the 100 in the 70's - kept my eye on this event for 50 years. Usain Bolt is the greatest athlete in the history of the world. Billions and Billions of people have lived - and nobody ever ran faster than he did. You take the 10 fastest men in the world - and he beats them by five yards. He didn't just win races - he made his opponents question their pain of training and life choices.

9.58 is INSANE... but I still think his 08 olympics was his best race.. one because it was at the olympics so much bigger audience, and two because he literally celebrated 15-20m before the finish line while the rest of the field were basically off screen. That's dominance.

I once ran a 9.52, then I took off my Oculus and celebrated my victory.

Usain Bolt also has the perfect name for the fastest man alive!

There are 2 types of 100m sprinters in the world.
One, Usain Bolt . Two, all the others.
I'm very lucky to watch him run while I grew up.

Thanks for this Masterpiece production. As a Jamaican born American, I enjoyed watching the evolution of this great event. I may be slightly biased towards the Jamaicans and "Canadian Jamaicans" but I have great respect for all that came along and moved the needle and thrilled their audience. I would love to see a production like this on the Women's side...I believe they/we deserve it as well. Thanks!

12 years and 9.58 is unbeaten, the legend has left a legacy that can only be broken by another legend

I know it's not the world record anymore, but that 9.69 by Bolt in Beijing 2008 is the SICKEST 100m dash ever! The man was "social distancing" in that final.

When you realize that they run fast enough to get a ticket near a school zone.

I still think running is the purest form of competition that a human can do. It’s so simple but so incredible to watch.

I love the intro. It gives me chills every time I hear that song. It also reminds me of Summoning Salt, which I love!

[mismisimognomo]

Love the Summing Salt reference/inspiration, i used to be addicted to them speedruns summaries. Now it seems that your channel is my new addiction, at least it'll be for a while ! 🖤
Already on my 3rd video from you and just found out your channel like an hour ago.

Usain bolt is the athlete that got me into running. In 6th grade, I'd go home from track practice and watch videos about him. I watched him break the world record in 2008 with my mom and I, a 10 year old kid who played cod2 and halo 3 on a daily basis, got so much inspiration. I ended up running all the way up into my early twenties at a juco level with one of the best coaches I could've ever asked for. I achieved all my goals, made some of the best friends I'll ever have. friends who are going to be life long friends and a coach who I will always be in contact with. all of this became reality because of this one man, Usain bolt. it just gives me chills when I hear his name because if there's one person I look up to most in this world, it's Usain bolt.

When I saw Bolt "jog" a 9.92 in a preliminary heat at the 2008 Olympics, I knew he was different. Never seen anything like it, before or since.

The Summoning Salt song at the start made me so excited for the video and I absolutely was not disappointed. Love your work.

[bipolarminddroppings]

I remember watching Bolt break the WR and thinking "He could have gone faster, he let up at the end" the dude is just bonkers.

[richardgallimore]

Bolt's 100m time will soon be the longest standing men's 100m WR ever! Just a few more years.

[chethan.sharma]

Today is August 16, 2024. The Goat Usain Bolt’s record reaches 15 years.

[KidGhost]

Powell jogging that 9.74 will never not amaze me

[CoenBijpost]

So cool that you actually called it a “Summoning Salt Tribute”. The man, the myth, the legend! He deserves tribute. Plus the song is now synonymous with world record progressions. Well played 😊
