How to win 100m easy!!
1. Be Jamaican 2. Get brought to the USA to train |
Slavery.
Only the fittest Slaves made it as far as Jamaica/Carribean when often up to 90% of Slaves died in transit. |
3. Be 2 metres tall. being tall is usually a bad thing when it comes to sprinting. this guy is just on a whole different level. |
being tall is usually a bad thing when it comes to sprinting. ... wat. I made it to state level carnivals in high school a number of times, and every time, I was the shortest dude there. Whilst being 7 or 8 feet tall might be a liability, being 'above average height' is certainly an advantage in sprinting. |
it's been said Bolt's height is not "optimal" if you're talking about sprint theory. However everything about him makes up for it and a whole lot more.
