I find funny that the best 100m runner has never ran 100m... He always ends his race just walking

Only downfall to running that fast is that the hair on the top of his head keeps blowing off.

Bolt is someone who deserves to be cocky
That's the trip thing, he's not cocky, he's legit having a metric ton of fun all the time. Winning in racing, and at life.
1AMTHEBATMAN
He isn't though, right? I haven't gone researching, but from what I know he is actually a really cool and chill dude!

Slonchman
Dude is the fastest man in the world even when his shoes aren't tied properly. 100m Men's just means a race for second place and third place
agumonkey
He accepted to play rabbit so they can beat their personal best.
NoTrumpEver
Yeah, that was pretty awesome. He was all like "Fucking cheese bitches!"
Ilikeyogurt
Why is HE retiring? Both Phelps AND him? I'm bummed
owlest
the next Olympics hes gonna be beaten, better to retire on a unbeaten record.
mauodias
They're actually very smart, retiring in the top. Not like Anderson Silva, for example.
bendoverandbraceyourself
He's 30 now. Probably doesn't want to keep up a tough training schedule when he's 34 after he's already achieved god status.
The others are right, go out on top. Phelps on the other hand is retiring so he can wear all his metals without snapping his spine in two.

Why does he need such fuckhuge arms, when he's a runner?
Qinect
He's just flexing for the camera.
devastitis
He's a sprinter, not a runner. Your arms help propel you forward. The stronger the arms the faster you can sprint. All sprinters are jacked
CrazyCanuck150
Something to do with stabilization while running. http://fitness.stackexchange.com/questions/7642/why-do-sprinters-have-muscular-arms

you need big arms when doing short sprints. It's a power distance. Marathoners need muscular arms too but with less bulk/weight .

but I'm a sprinter and have skinny arms
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
huh. Explain?
fyndir
You gotta push the air away from yourself to reduce the friction it causes. That's why people often swing their arms when running.
interesting, is there a guide on form or what muscles to train?
AssamLaksa

The photographer started saying it as soon as the race started. By the time, he finished half of the comment,Bolt already finished half race

InboxMeYourGermanShepherds
Dudes' tall as fuck compared to the others
undungubungu
His longer legs act like starting in a higher gear than the others. Slower acceleration, but higher top speed.
1.96m(6'5"). It further cements how unique of an athlete he is. His height means he dominates the 2nd half of the race.
Selerox
It's why he's so fast. His stride frequency is the same as the other athletes, but because his stride is so long, he's just flat-out faster.
NatureIsFirst
It's so awesome. He takes 3-4 steps less then everyone else
What's crazy is that his frequency is *so* fast. That's very difficult for a taller athlete.
Kougeru
Which is why I kinda think there should be height tiers. And swimmers should be naked so only their natural drag matters
UpDooot
The difference is usually height is a bad thing in the 100m. The bigger you are, the longer it takes to get started, he's the one exception
ThatShiftyMonkey
All olympics should be naked. And greased. And co-ed.

I've always found this funny too; he's as quick as a lightning bolt. It was his destiny from birth.

You couldn't explain that in English lightning=speed, and a bolt is a quantity of lightning? I don't speak Senegalese, either so I'm asking.
I speak broken French and she speaks broken English. Our conversations can get pretty tedious sometimes!

What exactly makes you think about skating when hearing the word "hawk" moreso than any other flying birds?

I'm pretty sure Bolt here is being compared to The Flash not to Barry Allen.
Well, King Arthur of Atlantis, Diana Prince-ss of Themyscira, Edward Nigma, Harleen Quinzell, Victor Fries.....oh crap, he's a supervillain.
Fair enough, except Riddler's name is Edward Nashton he chose Nigma because he likes puns
Thanks for humiliating me in front of all my friends

27yoUGLYvirgin
Uhm, you so know he was doping? This isn't about nice or not. An athlete who does doping is a piece of shit and has no place in competitions
I didn't realize he was actually caught doping. Pathetic.
ReadySetBake
I find it odd that he started doping after Olympic Gold and World Championship. Not saying innocent but maybe he's telling the truth.
StuffThingsEtc
Or he just didnt get caught before
He either looks scared or pissed off
truthsmiles
If he wasn't so damn cocky I'd agree with you.

Haha no kidding. I could always delete the comment but it gives them something to do.
I mean he's literally the fastest guy in the world. I think he's earned the right to brag about it

Apparently. I suppose I should have been clear that I absolutely respect his dedication and achievements, but feel he could be more humble.
RedClamz
He has fun with his skills. He is also very respectful to his opponents before and after races. Let the guy have his fun
Win some gold medals for your country, become the best in the world and history in your sport, and then tell me if that doesn't get to you
Linvak
Tou have to be cocky as a sprinter dude... The race lasts what? 9 seconds? If you dont get into that mindset youre going to lose.
MaidAndCorsetGuy
If Bolt hasn't earned the right to be cocky then no one has.
christopherwalkenslegs
Lol, if you're not allowed to be cocky when you are the DECIDEDLY best over a decade, when can you be cocky? fuck off
He's ALLOWED to be as cocky as he likes. I'm allowed not to like him or root for him. I feel the same about Americans (I'm American)
Yeah, the hive mind. Dont even try arguing a fair point on imgur. Waste of time.
Mardevac
And I'm Allowed to say that's a dumb reason; but I'm gonna give you an up vote cause you're right.
HandsomeSwede
That's a fair point and I don't think you should be downvoted for it.
Yeah, they have the right to downvote me to oblivion too. I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't let them :)

I've always found this funny too; he's as quick as a lightning bolt. It was his destiny from birth.
Drakenborn
We're obviously just at the beginning of his origin story. With the world plunging ever deeper into chaos the lab accident will be soon...

Kind of like how the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic had a last name that was pronounced "air heart".

Usain it's not a coincidence?

Oh my god I spent the entire last night trying to explain this to my mom who is visiting from Senegal and doesn't speak English.
Rayfire3535
You couldn't explain that in English lightning=speed, and a bolt is a quantity of lightning? I don't speak Senegalese, either so I'm asking.
oohkillemwithbootystank
I speak broken French and she speaks broken English. Our conversations can get pretty tedious sometimes!
thorkild91
I'm sorry if this is offensive, but how do you two not speak one of the same languages? That seems unusual
Wankathon
Its like some sort of Cosmic destiny

Lol what a ludicrous idea. (they're on to us) - DC comics, probably
NeverTrustAWombat
Our pilot when I travelled to Prague was called Captain Storm. That did NOT ease my fear of flying.
TheLastImgurian
Maybe I am a fool, but is that his real name?
nefariousailurophile
Yeah it is :)
ThunderGoose404
I always thought that too. Same with Tony Hawk. I didn't believe that was his real name.
Darkova
What exactly makes you think about skating when hearing the word "hawk" moreso than any other flying birds?
IHeartDicks
When you skate in a half pipe there's a swooping motion, much like a hawk swooping.
Cerapocalypse
This is a stretch.

Hell yeaaah! Like U, S and A in A Bolt! Like the bare, raw essence of freedom encapsuled in a man!
NickRivieraMD
I mean that's quite a stretch. He's Jamaican. And I dunno about USA being so super free.
Vaenaemoenen
Well, ok.

why would he need to change his name? Phelps is already the name of an aquatic creature of legend.
robotkabob
Yes, Willy Phelps
SometimesISayHistoryStuff
Huh I don't know that one. Legend from where?

From the 2000-2016 Olympics?

*audible groan*
eetsumkaus
from the mountains of Olympus. I think. It comes from the annals of the Olympics. It hails from the Land of Mary

Dang I was hoping to hear about an actual mythical creature. Still +1 for being clever.

Like if he was a retarded dolphin.. These are my phelps!! No Michael they're your fins..we've gone over this.. PHELPS!!!!

Ted Splash. Wait no, that was Ted Kennedy.

I like "Michael Neptune" better but that might be too on the nose.
iScrambledHerEggs
So if they make a movie about him it will probably flop worse than batman vs superman.
LookatmeImthePanNow
Could you imagine? "Meh. He's fast but way too overpowered. Make him lose a few races. It's more realistic..."
missdebonair0328
That's the ending scene of The Incredibles

Nominative determinism..... It's mentioned on QI

The name of the chief firemen in my city is "Feuardent" which would translate as "burning fire"... Its not even a common name at all..

It was his original name too!

This made me laugh
Yacobs21
Ah yes, classic DC names like Barry Allen or Clark Kent really exemplify their hero identity
AppleFoster
I'm pretty sure Bolt here is being compared to The Flash not to Barry Allen.
Rayfire3535
Well, King Arthur of Atlantis, Diana Prince-ss of Themyscira, Edward Nigma, Harleen Quinzell, Victor Fries.....oh crap, he's a supervillain.
Yacobs21
Fair enough, except Riddler's name is Edward Nashton he chose Nigma because he likes puns
LannistersSendTheirRetards
Thanks for humiliating me in front of all my friends
TheaterofLife
I thought it was funny as an American I still wanted Bolt to win. Fuckin love that guy
Skippy1998
Agreed. He's great at what he does and has fun doing it
SoPhoKingWong
Me too. Let's be honest m, no one wanted the druggy to win
Coopernanner99
I think thats cool, I hope people can watch and appreciate greatness. I mean unless you know any of the participants, what's the difference?
60FPSDoggo
Dont we all?
Copperbrat
Me too! He's a cocky son-of-a-bitch but he has earned the right to be. I can't get enough of the guy.
ICantFindAGoodOneYouGuys
Especially since Gatlin is kind of a douche.
imnotyourpalBuddy
'Kind of'
OptimusPantry
How is he?
Copperbrat
Props to the guy, though. 35 years old and giving Bolt a run for his money. He may not be Mr. Nice Guy, but he's a damned amazing athlete.
eskimowins
Most drug cheats are
27yoUGLYvirgin
Uhm, you so know he was doping? This isn't about nice or not. An athlete who does doping is a piece of shit and has no place in competitions
Copperbrat
I didn't realize he was actually caught doping. Pathetic.
ReadySetBake
I find it odd that he started doping after Olympic Gold and World Championship. Not saying innocent but maybe he's telling the truth.
StuffThingsEtc
Or he just didnt get caught before
Skippy1998
He either looks scared or pissed off
truthsmiles
If he wasn't so damn cocky I'd agree with you.
FarmerOfMemes
Rip fake Internet points
truthsmiles
Haha no kidding. I could always delete the comment but it gives them something to do.
TheaterofLife
I mean he's literally the fastest guy in the world. I think he's earned the right to brag about it
FilthyRedmond
He's gotta go fast
truthsmiles
Indeed - he has the right to act however he wants. But I also have the right not to like him.
FacelessGod
I'm sure that will keep him up at night.
TriploGee
How do you feel about Bernie Sanders?

GoogleFucker
Fair point. Oh well.
ecodude
Ouch, him and all seven of his Olympic gold medals just winced.
RottenStorebrandTampon
People get real pissy when you talk shit about people they like.
truthsmiles
Apparently. I suppose I should have been clear that I absolutely respect his dedication and achievements, but feel he could be more humble.
RedClamz
He has fun with his skills. He is also very respectful to his opponents before and after races. Let the guy have his fun
GoogleFucker
Win some gold medals for your country, become the best in the world and history in your sport, and then tell me if that doesn't get to you
Linvak
Tou have to be cocky as a sprinter dude... The race lasts what? 9 seconds? If you dont get into that mindset youre going to lose.
MaidAndCorsetGuy
If Bolt hasn't earned the right to be cocky then no one has.
christopherwalkenslegs
Lol, if you're not allowed to be cocky when you are the DECIDEDLY best over a decade, when can you be cocky? fuck off
truthsmiles
He's ALLOWED to be as cocky as he likes. I'm allowed not to like him or root for him. I feel the same about Americans (I'm American)
27yoUGLYvirgin
Yeah, the hive mind. Dont even try arguing a fair point on imgur. Waste of time.
Mardevac
And I'm Allowed to say that's a dumb reason; but I'm gonna give you an up vote cause you're right.
HandsomeSwede
That's a fair point and I don't think you should be downvoted for it.
truthsmiles
Yeah, they have the right to downvote me to oblivion too. I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't let them :)
baasblue
Other posters can also dislike this guy. Nothing wrong with that.
