Why the **** did he slow down at the end ?! Could have run 9.67/9.66 surely ?!

[wiw]

Couldn't help himself could he ****ing hell he pissed that

[anfieldanfield]

Fair play to Powell, honest, modest interview.

A choked Asafa Powell is absolutely desolate

Powell doesn't have the right mentality for the big races, which is a shame.

Bolt just blew them away and he could he is capable of going faster again by the looks of it.

I haven't seen anything like this. The guy slowed down, spread his arms, and hit himself in the chest in the last two seconds of that run! What a cheek.

He could have hit under 9.6 with that run. Amazing.

Probably wanted to have a legendary photo of him boasting about his win and world record before even crossing the finishing line. I bet no one ever manages to accomplish that in 100m again.

Speechless

[Shaggy]

Just utterly staggered. I'll remember it forever - sheer greatness before us. It was unbelievable. I was whooping involuntarily when he was easing down and showboating and when the time appeared. Staggering. I actually came over all emotional. Just wow wow wow.

How did Johnson get the prediction right!!

[JohnDoe]

Watched it again. **** me, I'll be devastated if he ever gets caught with steroids. That was probably the most amazing 9.69 seconds in the history of the olympic games.

I doubt it would have been that fast but you have to feel he's competing with history now.

Same here mate, except for the emotional bit.

Do you reckon he'll beat Johnson's 200m record?

[Shaggy]

Just seen the footage of the great Michael Johnson watching the race......awesome

[Shaggy]

Do you reckon he'll beat Johnson's 200m record?

Yep!

[tommyg]

I dont see anyone beating that. Records are constantly being broken but ****ing hell...

Johnson himself has said it's only a matter of time before his record goes.

If he keeps up this form it could go very soon indeed.
