Why does this feel like the hunger games, when the contestants speak to caesar flickerman just before the games 😂😂

[retired_USAF]

He's perfect for who he is: energetic, self assured, and motivated. Got to admire his confidence and I hope he makes his goal.

[kxnny]

he like a theater kid that can run fast 😂

[dougyja]

Bolt got 3 gold medals 100m, 200m & 4x1, also holds the world records for all 3. Good motivation to want to become the greatest but also need to break the records for that to happen.

I smiled during the whole video, I still don't get why people are hating on him.
This man just wants to be the best at what he does and share it with the fans

[Crazylab]

I cant imagine the amount of hours that this young man has out into his sport. I ran track years ago and I absolutely loved it. Congrats making it to the Olympics... Good luck and smash the record!❤❤❤❤

[Holysimba]

Bro so fast he caught Covid coming off the turn 😂💀

[trishannastewart]

Rooting for Noah & I love the energy he is bringing to track. It’s been missing since Bolt retired, but Bolt’s record will stand for the next couple generations

[rossross]

By the way Jessy Owens won 4 gold medals at the 1936 Olympic: 100, 200, 4X100 and long jump and Carl Lewis did the same in Los Angeles 1984

[PalkaTV]

Fun fact : He hasn't lost a 200m race since coming 3rd at the Olympics in Tokyo 2021

[khanthesalah]

Who's here after he won gold at the olympics ?

[sprintcritic]

“You’re going to make a lot of money that way.” 😂 I’m so GLAD to see TRACK STARS on late night television!!!

[arinze]

Good interview, he has now won Gold in the 100m French Olympics 2024.

[DaggerNL]

I just saw him win the gold medal on the 100 meters in Paris. Then i watched this video. What a legend!

[shimronnetia]

he is making life so much fun to live..that hairstyle is like for our Massai people, we like it...love from Kenya East Africa

[LK-bzsk]

I love the kids energy and confidence and his competitiveness is next level

[omariemorgan]

Usain Bolt is in space, this kid is on earth. He ain’t even on a ladder

[nicholasgarrick]

The olympics are going to be fantastic this year the men's 200m, 400mh, and 1500m final are looking to be all time great race.

[robertclayborn]
