The Moment USAIN BOLT Became the UNDISPUTED G.O.A.T

For almost a decade, Usain Bolt was one of the most popular sporting figures in the world. In 2008, Bolt broke his first world record in the 100 meters during the Olympics, and soon after, he broke the 200 meter world record with a time of 19.30 seconds. The following year, Bolt struck again by breaking his own 100 and 200 meter world records (9.58 seconds and 19.19 seconds respectively). In just 2 short years, Bolt rewrote the record books, however his career was far from over.

Following this early success, Bolt remained the best sprinter in the world for close to a decade, but which moment made Usain Bolt the absolute G.O.A.T (Greatest of All Time)?

In this video, we'll break down our pick for the moment that made Usain Bolt the undisputed GOAT of sprinting.

Thanks for watching!

Naming him BOLT was an incredible amount of foresight from his human parents

"missed 9 weeks of training, leaving him completely out of shape"
Me, who hasn't ran in 9 years:
*looks at stomach*

[emilysmith]

I love how he breaks world records while looking like someone who is casually jogging

[faithchung]

This had me in tears. Proud Jamaican right here. I remember being in the stands and watching that race in 2002, which gave me goosebumps. Thank you for making this video Total Running Productions.

Guy with Ferrari: "Hey you need a ride?"

Bolt: *Sorry I'm in a hurry*

[brynlee]

I like how everyone roots for usain even if people from their own country are running lol

[surudog]

He is undoubtably the biggest deal in olympics. His successes are amazing and just shows the character of Bolt and grit. He made Olympics worth watching and enjoyable.

Imagine being a sprinter in your peak while Usain bolt was in the game😭 I would have been punching the air🤣

Usain bolt is that one kid nobody wanted to play tag with

[nedimayvaz]

7:02 my dude in the red should have been a swimmer. Damn...

[ronburgandy]

Bolt was indeed amazing to watch. Just how many more records could he have broken if he didn't stop for tea, read the newspaper and pose for a photo op the last 20 meters of several races?

[spacevspitch]

Honestly, I think one of the things that put the icing on the cake of Bolt being the GOAT is how he treated Justin Gatlin when Gatlin won against him at Bolt's last 100m race in 2017. Bolt accepted defeat graciously and stood up for Gatlin against all the boos. And also against that reporter's ridiculous question at the post race panel.

[bohneneintopf]

This video is basically saying, when Bolt was young he was fast, when he grew up he is even faster, then he is the fastest ever, but gets slower then gets faster again. That‘s why he is really fast.

[aaerkxaiedrschtaufenbachaa]

“At 15 he was already showing tremendous promise and he couldn’t drive yet”

*he could probably run there faster anyways*

[juniormoulounda]

I won't be against whoever comes and beats his record as he's retired, for me he remains the best and the greatest of all time, I love you Usian Bolt

[Citizenof-world]

Those long legs & those huge strides after around 50mts is just unmatchable.. What a legend.

[Romoa]

Bolt as in lightning
Gatlin as in the gun
It’s like someone wrote this as a storyline to a sports fiction

[CuthbertS]

When you're a butterfly swimmer and a track athlete :

Lane 3 athlete at 7:01

[kellywalker]

He starts 5m behind and finished 5m in front. Unbelievable. Legend.

[FVCK-]

“He was unbeatable at his absolute best”

I think he was also unbeatable at his absolute worse haha
