Bolt is just one-of-a-kind.

Even his name is just perfect. We may see someone beat Bolt’s records, and who knows, the person to do it might come sooner than you think. But what would be a shock is if that person was as magnetising and universally loved as Bolt. That seems nearly impossible.

That's false. In the races where he slowed down he was already behind. For example his World record of 9.69s where he seems to have slowed down massively only was slightly slower than his maximum potential.

I mean he pulled up early to “celebrate” in the 9.69 in the Olympics. Obviously not saying that that meant he ran faster in that, but I think it does credit the coach’s theory that there were most likely things that they both know that could have been more “perfect.” Obviously not saying anything to minimize his running abilities, but if he couldn’t have, that would possibly mean the record would never ever be broken, and I don’t like to think that!

[@ENikolaev]

Used the previous olympics example because I’d imagine his time would be around like 9.62 or low 9.6’s if he ran that race through the whole 100. And bc he didn’t hit same top speed/60 time, that’d probably mean a mix of his two races could be something faster than the current WR, if that makes sense.

Yeah it's pretty hard to see anyone getting close to these times. Christian Coleman, the fastest man currently hasn't even clocked a low 9.7 yet. And Noah Lyles hasn't broken 19.5 in the 200m. They'd have to run something truly incredible to even get close to those times. I wonder if the person to break them is even born yet?

[@petaaaa5831]

Will probably take another very tall athlete with high reaction time, the height was Bolt’s unique genetic characteristic in sprinting that hadn’t been seen previously.

[@wallacekananda3396]

Bolt had the habit of looking at the clock just as he got to the finish line - meaning he is/was actually faster if he chose to go all out beyond the tape. He's in a league of his own.

[@raoeoiku7549]

The only way in which Bolt's size might handicap his recorded reaction times is that he'll naturally have his head slightly higher, and thus very slightly farther from the speaker that transmits the sound of the starting pistol. I think TRP is confusing the measured reaction time with his initial acceleration. A sprinter of Bolt's size will have more inertia to overcome (and drag from wind resistance in the case of a headwind), so getting up to speed from rest will require more effort. Thus a fast acceleration out of the blocks relative to his competitors would be all the more impressive.

[@coachRoome]

Thank you. Reaction time has nothing to do with size, other than the nanosecond of difference for the message to travel from his brain to his muscles. A better measure of the quality of his start would have been his speed at 5/10m.

[@eamparbeng]

What you said makes so much sense. That explains why his coach Glenn Mills made him do some tough physical strength and conditioning workouts. Standing at 6'5" and weighing 210 pounds, Usain Bolt was a sprinter in a NBA shooting guard's body, making him not ideal for sprinting. His tough physical strength and conditioning workouts are also why Usain Bolt could dunk a basketball even without the proper technique and jump higher than most elite NBA players.

[@jaybee946]

Yeah, it feels a little weird that the creator of the channel doesn't know that the size of the sprinter doesn't affect their reaction time.

[@eamparbeng]

@@jaybee946 he probably thinks it does based on how shorter people have a shorter neurological network in their bodies it results in quicker reaction times. Not entirely true at all.

[@marshallsvideo]

What does the size of an athlete have to do with their reaction time

[@RayadoxAV]

Reaction time is most of the times measured by how fast your body reacts to external stimuli, and those reactions are nothing more than electric signals running through the body to the limbs, a larger body means those signals take more time to reach the limbs, therefore a larger body generally means a slower reaction time

[@pablocrvzz2985]
