That moment when you realize... Bolt in celebration crossed the line before the final participant still running in competition. Lol
+Keith C. ikr! and look how long it took the other final leg runners to pass him while he was jogging and cheering on Asafa lool The man is just great!
His partner was just accelerating at the time so he was just picking up his speed
+Keith C. lmao
Lol they must have dropped the baton or something.
+Keith C. That last team gave up, 3rd leg got out way too quick and they stopped for like a good 3-5 seconds and then started the race again.
the last jamaican dude was running for his life,damn
Asafa Powell is a beast he was once the world record holder until usain came along
The two last legs of that relay were insane. Some serious, serious pace from Jamaica
đ€Ł
Yong Geun Song sorry mate this week i made it to 9.53. Maybe next time lol.
Yong Geun Song why not
For the first time since 2004 men can now dream to win Gold in 100m and 200 m in Tokyo Olympics .
My thoughts exactly when I watched the competition
Andre De Grasse just won the Gold for the 200M!! First Canadian Male Athlete to do so woohoo!!! đšđŠđšđŠđšđŠ
@@yashny Itâs anybodyâs medal now đ
@@alexrowdyrodrigues9716 and Jacobs the 100m and 4x100m, first time for Italy
it's since 2008 and not 2004 please. Bolt was in the 2004 200m race but was 5th in that particular olympics. nobody knew him.
Most badass athlete of my lifetime. He could celebrate even before the finish line.
'Badass" is precisely the term needed.
exactly!!
He can celebrate before he starts running
@@forestnickson7896 3:42 infront of bolt, he destroyed bolts triple triple
And make world record doing that
The moment when you realize Bolt jogs down the track and still beats someone. LOL 2 fast.
that shot really happened lmao
+ramoor Hashem just happened
What just happened
Yesterday he literally jogged down the track and won his qualification series
Kaisuke971 oh lol that's his normal style he use to do it in high school.I competed against him a few times then we would make him not to beat us too bad. Even though i was in a higher race class due to age he still was too fast for us the older ones
I came here to hear the cheers from the audience. Miss that in Tokyo

Athletes should be able to do their happy dance without judgement. This is entertainment after all.
Agree
His entertainment is justified cause he easily backs it up. Simple đ€·ââïž
Nobody likes to dance when finished last
who's judging???
i personally believe that bolt would have gotten at least under 9.53 if he didnt showboat near the end. he could've finished very strongly. who knows what he would've gotten
chris bassani I know right! And I don't know if he'll be able to break that again! he might've even gotten sub 9.5....
SirFancyPants21 I think sub 9.5 would be a bit extreme but i would say 9.53
when you think about it; 9.5 and 9.53 are quite far off
chris bassani Well Usain averaged 2.44m per stride, and by the time he started celebrating to the finish line, as well as his deceleration right before, was about 8 and a half strides. That's roughly 20m. If he went balls to the walls in the last 20m and then some just in case, he definitely could have gotten an increased time of .09.
chris bassani i think he didn't go all out in order for him to be able to beat it once again.
yeah seeing the way he's ran especially in the world championships in berlin he didnt lean in the end so it might reveal his purpose to continually beat it rather than absolutely crush it once. but again he might just be getting better overall. either way, he's ran the fastest races in human history that we know of
I laughed so hard when I saw bolt cross the finish line because he just kept running đđđđđ
stupid he can't stop immediately or he will fall
+banana vlogs not nice to call people names
+Mariam Yassin who are you
Yep and he beat one of the other competitors.
You are trained to keep running. You are supposed to breakdown gradually
How many world records do you want to break in the same event?
Usain Bolt: Yes
Itâs a shame he retired! He was literally the highlight of Olympics
Lol
@@user-wb1vm9ex4k Yea I honestly didn't care to watch anymore after his retirement.
@@thelegacyofgaming2928 that is so true
If bolt kept running on the relay, he still would've finished before the other teams.
Even if Bolt ran de 400M himself :)
Yup, no doubt - he can run 200m sprinting and he was way faster than Asafa!
@@RicVial nope
@@RicVial not a chance
He would have ran into asafa's back.
He is the WR holder in 200M as well.
So he if he continued, I think they might have actually taken milliseconds less than they did with asafa.
did you guys see that? Jamaica won the race with asafa and then bolt cross the line before the final participant! lol we won the race twice lol
hahaha i noticed that as well, great stuff.
Lolololololol!! I was laughing my ass off when I saw Bolt casually strolling down the track while others desperately trying to get to the finish line. Great stuff.

M.
this is deeper than it seems lol
Asafa Powell going like a train.
+Thomas Williams The relay team said before the race that they all wanted to win it for Asafa. He was the "old veteran" on that squad, the one they all looked up to and emulated.
+ZhangtheGreat.

This is the Asafa Powell that needs to show up in RIO.
+Lo Mi he's in Rio?
The sound of the crowd is absolutely epic!

Ayman B. Thanks!
It is the fastest ever anchor leg in history and still is at 8.68 seconds
@@amedunn9921 bolt has a 8.65 anchor leg
I love how bolt celebrates by jogging at the last second while everyone else were running for their lives. Plus, Asafa Powell runs like a mad man. Truly Amazing.
This guy broke the world record whilst celebrating
Legend
in 100m!!! I can't stress that enough..like cmon if there's sport where it shouldn't happen is the 100m dash..absolute legend
so bolt jogs down behind Asafa and still beat someone on the anchor leg from the other country...lol
đđđđđ you're a savage lmfao
they switched him because he injured now he is running second and bolt running anchor watch out Rio is ours
Vertical Horizon you sound upset. Calm down please. The sprints belong to us Jamaicans. If yuh nuh like it den guh chuck off a cliff!!
People, help me. I want to create CZcams and upload the Quran and the hadiths and the teachings of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when it is good for us.
Asafa Powellâs running was not human. He strides were so fast that it looked like he was hovering above the track. Truly amazing
Follow me
HoverBoi3000
Asafa runs like the mechanical ideal human, like if a robot were to mimic the perfect human running style it would run like Asafa
đđđđđpowel was like a robot
It looks like a floating human wasting NO recourses
Itâs hard to conceptualize how fast theyâre moving until u see the camera sliding at 2:22
Here, 2021. Still the most beautiful thing in athletics
That moment when Bolt yells "Go Asafa Go" at 2:21 > unforgettable !!
â@@gabrielemariotti5780what kind of expensive headsets were you using lol
Powell was mostly responsible for that world record he really went hard on that final leg haha
All of their contributed to that time...all of them. The set off the blocks, maintaining the lead, crossing the line. That is all team work.
@@ntokozomoyo2371 Yup except for Nesta Carter tho. Ruined Usain Bolt's perfect triple-triple
@Joe Bloggs stay salty, yank. It must be hard being spanked by athletes coming from a country that makes less money than Silicon Valley đ
@Joe Bloggs butthurt yankee?
00:17 He slowed down already but still broke the recordïŒ He impressed me the most in Beijing Olympic.
he always do that
That's kinda stupid because now we'll never know what the actual record would be, he'll never be as fast as he was back then anymore.
His world record is actually a lot faster than what he did in Beiing. He has beaten both the 100m and the 200m records after.
Mikael Fransson A tenth, and still slowed down.
Maybe if he gave his best he would go beyond 9:58 time in Beijing.
In the 100m, Bolt pulled away so far in the 70-90m that he could just celebrate for the whole last 10m đ
The fact that he celebrated and still dusted everyone lol
that's not just talent that's hard work and heart
And morherfucking genetics. Even if I work 200000000 times as hard as Bolt, I wouldn't even make it to my local track team.
+NBASFAN that means that you don't work hard because hard work beats everything
That's both
Insane Bolt
I am very pleased that Asafa had a chance to finish the relay in WR beating race, he is also a great sprinter.
It's actually mad watching how fast Bolt was, scary speed.
Damnnnn. Asafa Powell killed that.
Perhaps the best 100m of Asafa Powell ever!!! :-D
Alecia Lewis yeah was looking for this
It was and still is the fastest ever 100m leg of all time.. 8.68 seconds
@@amedunn9921 means he beat Usain bolt
@@amedunn9921 Blake and Bolt beated that in 2012 tho.
This guy is a true legend. He carved his name in the olympics. Iâve only heard of olympics when I was a kid because of him. Mad lad
Yep. He's literally the reason I started watching. A freak of nature.
0:26 BRO STARTED EMOTINGđđ
Bolt is the G.O.A.T
Powell was freaking hauling, it didn't look like he touched the ground
2nd fastest anchor leg ever I think around 8.73...
Ayman B. I want to say it's tied for the fastest ever @ 8.70
Gtslmfa0 Look at the trackside camera when he's running
I am glad to see that someone other than I, noticed powell's effort, it looks as if he was running above the track.
He always runs his best at relays. Everytime during a big individual competition we should give him a baton in the hand, maybe he will get gold.
Oh come on, sport is one of the earliest forms of theatre.
So what if Usain is a little bit of a show-off. He still wins AND he gets the crowd going. He knows how to entertain.
People are jjust salty, sure it can be cringey when someone gloats and shows off and then loses, but Bolt has the talent to back it up.
Syahirah Salim the thing is, he could have had a faster time if not for that
"are you not entertained?"
Antonio DĂaz is that a Kyrgios reference
Mutabarka
Music
If Bolt continued running instead of celebrating in the 100m, we could all say that the record could never be broken
Hater
True. He always slowed down to look around could have shaved off a few hundredths there . đ©
@@leroyvermilion7708 I'm telling u that is a lie Trust. Celebrating before crossing the line always cost a lot of time we talking tenth of a second here.
he ran through the line in 2009 and set an even better time lol
@@rhakeshuthayakumar9058 a tenth of a second would make his time 9.59, which he himself beat the next year
Asafa Powell ran harder on that last leg than any individual race he ever ran!
2:34 Bolt kept jogging to cross finish line.
For some reason 2:34 was absolutely hilarious
Omg ikr, I laugh every time
Bolt is the greatest athlete ever in his sport. At his time, he was the best by a margin never matched by anyone
One of the most iconic moment in Jamaican historyđŻđČđŻđČđŻđČâ„
Dear God! Powell Flew! If only he had done that in the 100m final for a silver medal.
Powell was incredibly talented but unfortunately could never do it at the major events. As a fan it is a shame he didn't achieve more than he did.
I think it's all mental with Powell.
his split time came in at 8.70 crazy stuff
Powell apparently has performance issues when it comes to individual events
.
2008 was Jamaica's coming out party
I feel so emotional and proud love my Jamaican athletes đđŒđđŒđđŒđđŒđŻđČđŻđČđŻđČđŻđČ
1:38 this represents usains entire career
All respect to Bolt, heâs amazing but... Asafa Powell ate up that last leg, Iâve never seen someone run 100 meters that fast
He looked like he was running for dear life! I've never seen anyone run that fast either. Just shows how talented Asafa was in his PRIME. His top speed must've reached 30mph no doubt.
@@TheFlash3237 no way it was 30mph
@@kaioken6442 Yes it was.
@@TheFlash3237 than that should make asafa the fastest man
@@kaioken6442 Relays don't count in the fastest man debate. The fastest top end speed ever recorded in sprinting is Usain Bolt's 9.69 run where he achieved a 29.7mph speed. But Asafa's home stretch is close if not faster than that.
what's impressive is that he went to berlin a year after this and broke these world records again....AMAZING!
2021 still reliving this epic 2008 Olympics from Usain Bolt.
will be never forget of this legendary momentsđ„đ„đ„
i got a feeeling during the last 4X100m after bolt passes the baton if he keeps on running he might just be right behind asafa and infront of all others XD
2:28 me running from responsibilities
Still gives me goosebumps 12 years later.
That last guy in the Relay was a freaking machine
That's Asafa Powell, bruh
Powell was immense
Usian Bolt beats the Netherlands last man without even trying :/
He's like a juggernaut when he powers up mid races, he just keeps on pulling
Breaking world records is never easy in track and field but doing so at the Olympics or the World Championships is even harder due to the number of qualifying rounds one has to run before the final. In 2009, Bolt ran 8 races in 6 days in his 3 events. Thus, making his achievements even more memorable and legendary.
Sooooo... Usain Bolt ran 200 meters with a faster time than that last dude running 100 meters
Yes
Blixology / Tien Nguyen dam thatâs cold
No hate but Usain was in advantage, he was already miles away from that dude, they both *didnât* have the same start.
That's harsh đđđ
Nah bro even i have 14s something in 100m
2:26 onwards..Usain Bolt was almost as fast as the guy who finished 8th, yet he was just jogging
Yeah đ
You won the match. Congratulations!
2:46 Idk why but this always gets me hype đ
I remember sitting in front of the TV. One of the very rare times your jaw drops and the sound "woooow" comes out.
Usain Bolt can move at nearly 40 kph and that is pretty fast. He is young and wants to vent his successes. He is an exceptional runner.
he is 29 he is retiring soon
I hope he wrecks them all one last time in Rio before retiring.
Today is the day ! Go on usain

9.69 was a madness back then, little did we all know he would smash that in Berlin a year later with 9.58!!!!
12 million after 12 years. I hope to see another million after 13. Proud đŻđČ
in my opinion, right now. i believe the top 3 sprinting nations are, in order, Jamaica, USA, and Trinidad and Tobago. i know Canada and Britain are great but on the biggest stages over the past few years these nations i thought excelled the most. but if i missed any meets where my knowledge may be invalid please be free to inform me. im from the US, and i have a great respect for Trinidad and Jamaica considering i am also a track athlete. i love watching these nations run especially against each other whether it be a relay or individual.
Usain broke 2, but Jamaica broke 3
Blue_N_Silver He contributed to it and this was mainly about Bolt so they just said 3. :P
During almost all of these races my grandma and mom got their pot covers out and started clapping. đ€Łđ€Ł
that moment when u realize bolt was jogging and still finished a few seconds behind the dudes who were running as hard as they can
Everyone may not like Bolt's style but he came with a talent and a swag that took over not only track & field but the whole world of sports. That's what he did. Amazing thing for a little country youth from Trelawny, Jamaica.
One of the best olympic moments imo.
"I am Number 1, I am Number 1!!" was so powerful 1:38

What a masterpiece of an athlete. There will never be another Usain Bolt.
This guy is just Awesome. A real hero who makes people dreamâ€ïž
This race Bolt was magnificent. I think his performance is even better than 2009. Maybe in 2009 achived better shape, but in 2008 he found an incredible acceleration wich make him win the race effortless. Amazing.
Bolt is a once in a lifetime athlete. I donât think anyone will break his records for at least next 20-30 years
2:34 he jogged the finish line before the last teams final runner. This is funny
Some of the most unforgettable moments in Athletics. BOLT!!!! The other participants will also be forever edged in history because of him.
Idk what it is. But somehow I love seeing him running. It's so cool to see how he runs away while all others are still like at the same place
Ato Boldon on Bolt, "there is no way you can watch a 17 year old run 19.93 for 200 meters with that kind of ease and not know whats coming"
Watching the mens 100m in Tokyo, it's just not the same without Usain
Ikr
Witnessing Usain in his prime, absolutely dog walking the opps and always being humble about it all was truly special. LEGENDARY!
Jamaica...Land We Love!!
+YeahRight! You just insulted every single athlete who works hard for track in America, and frankly you don't have to deny that Jamaica has some great athletes and so does America.

One of the greatest moments in Olympic history.
the last dude was going so fast, it was like he was floating upwards on each stride, compare him to the person in white / red and you can literally see the difference.
Everyone roots for their country until Bolt comes in. Then we root for Bolt đ
It's not all about Bolt. The Jamaican teams men and women of track dominated for years. Kudos to the whole organization. Even the second best Jamaicans would have broken the records.

Will always be mad at him for not running seriously till the end but that's how legends exist. they cultivate the mystery.!

I've never seen better sprinting form than Powell. Never. It's beautiful in its biomechanical perfection.
