2008 Beijing: Every Usain Bolt Race

- Beijing (National Stadium), PR OF CHINA 08 AUG 2008 - 24 AUG 2008
All my other Olympics videos were taken off CZcams so this video may be on the chopping block. I have some videos on Vimeo under this same handle.
I was in my apartment in Manhattan just across the East River from Randall's Island and the Reebok meet at Icahn Stadium when Bolt shocked us all with his 9.72 WR. It was weird for him to be in a 100 at all back then. Less than three miles from where I was standing, I missed a surprising WR (and next-level progression of a legendary season and career) in person. Look at how I'm trying to connect myself to Bolt by posting this video and telling that boring story, like I was part of it all. Shameless. Like I was telling Ato the other day, . . .

I am here for it 5th April 2024. So they have issues with both celebrating. The commentators forget Maurice Green. Bolt was humble compared to Green. Green used to stick his tongue out and do the most. Bolt is special simple. I will never get tired of watching these races.

Bolt with zero haters
I will never stop watching these races of Usain bolt he is the greatest ever.
15 years on, I've never seen someone separate from the field like Bolt did in the 100m final. At 50m, he hit a gear that simply never existed in all of history. Indescribable. He truly seemed limitless on that night.
Well said, and straight facts
And close it at all at 80m running 9.69.
Jackson I think in the 200m
That was his prime and if he had completed without celebrating and slowing down, I believe it would be well below his current world record❤😢
I believe that he could have run 9.5 in the finals as was said by Ato Boldon. He was just awesome
Big up Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell🥇

Truly! We are all so lucky to witness this era. And given the times now it is crazy to think back on this era and all the absolute dogs in the field like Tyson Gay, Yohan Blake, the come back of Justin Gatlin, Asafa Powell, Degrasse man I could go on!

Still watching in 2024
His interview after the 100 final shows a lot about his mindset. When asked about the time he ran he said I don't care really. His focus was winning. True champion.
Yes. Good point. I think it's because each track is different. He's not bothered.
In 2008 no one had ever witnessed anything like Bolt. Instead of the huffing, puffing, and glaring of previous sprinters, Usain was dancing and joking and jogging to records.
Bolt is the greatest ever, not because he broke world records but because he broke world records incidentally, simply as a byproduct of winning a race. It's something that Noah Lyles & the rest of the pretenders don't comprehend.
Year after year, Olympics after Olympics, Championships after Championships. In BOTH sprint events, he was supremely dominant.
And he did it against the fastest men in recorded history
THAT'S why he's the GOAT. And that's why no one competing today is anywhere close to his greatness. Nor will they ever be.

Facts! ALL FACTS! 🙏🏽👏🏽
Agreed. Everything on point👌🏼
At 34:45, Ato Bolden believes Bolt could have run 9.59 if he hadn't eased up in this 100m final. One year later, Bolt runs straight through at the World Champs and runs 9.58. Incredible assessment by Bolden.
I was thinking the exact same thing after he made those comments. Speaking of that, I'm really glad that Bolt ran a proper 100M a year later in Berlin, because that 9.69 that he ran in Beijing, was such an easy 9.69 lol. Bolt was such an unreal athlete, his 4 fastest 100M times are 9.72, 9.69, 9.63, and an insane 9.58. What's funny is, Bolt was so dominant and broke so many records, that a lot of people don't even talk much about his 9.63 in 2012, because it wasn't a World Record lol.
the only poor statement boldon made was saying bolt was probably in the 30 mph range😂
He's the best in my opinion. It's like he can see the future with his predictions.
@@delicioustaste7652 he made a similar prediction about Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce.

@@chickennuggets5549 you don't need to accept Jesus as the "only" God. You can worship and/or accept HIm/Her in any form you feel like. Hinduism talks about different Gods, Islam different, and many other religions. All this is for inner peace. There might be something like one true God (which we don't have the capability to prove right now), but that necessarily isn't Jesus.
Its electrifying just to watch Usain run, he is the GOAT hands down no debate. The game truly aint the same without him.
Those 9.92 and 9.85 JOGGING the last 40 meters, are still epic races to watch today where all out efforts rarily goes into the 9.80s.

Poor Mom all she wanted was to celebrated her son’s magnificent win and she had to share the hug with asian folk she didn’t even know!🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️😁

Yep! Still watching greatness and yet still in awe! 🫢
Yeah! Watching in march 2024
Watch it 3 times in April
Always here. Greatness is forever. The motivation and the feel good feeling. Love it
I am, it's like yesterday
That 9.92 is the most impressive sprint ever..damn. Before that, 20 years ago that time was a wr.
Lol. So true 💯% facts
My man’s jogged that. I would have to train for years to even get anywhere near that and it would be with full effort. 😂😂
Insane. Some sprinters never even reach under 10.
The young man is in credible
1:21:00 Usain's longevity was a thing of beauty. 3 Olympic games undefeated. GOAT
Can't get enough of this great man Jamaican born
I still can’t believe this man was celebrating with 20 meters to go and still ran a 9.69. That’s just not fair lol
Usain Bolt the greatest athlete to ever put foot on a race track 👑🐐🇯🇲

@@TheDYNAMITE001 like we brag about 9.58, people back then would say, im so lucky to witness greatness of prime muhammad ali, prime michael johnson, prime carl lewis not knowingly someone in the future would surpass that. Maybe in the future like for example 2050 people will say im so lucky to witness this athlete who broke usain bolt record. On and on and on. It’s like a cycle now. People will say that every era.
This never gets old
Bolt is the GOAT. The way Asafa Powell ran the last 100m in the relay is madness😵
And till TODAY...its still being watched with deep emotions.
What I like about Usain bolt or should I say love is not only his enormous speed but also the strength of this man's character.
His character to remain cool under pressure, his charisma, sportsmanship and support of other's work is phenomenal.

You forgot prime messi, prime Cristiano Ronaldo
There will never be a greater Olympics than 2008. Kobe on the Redeem Team. Phelps in the water and Bolt on land. All of them achieving the impossible in their events. Those were the Games by which all others will forever fall short.
Don't forget, PRIME SERENA. She was killing it on the tennis court
@@edgarotieno2872Messi, Ronaldo or LeBron weren't in their prime in the late 00s tho
Having only seen clips of these performances it's brilliant to get a sense of the buildup and the true gravity of each of his achievements there. Everything was like a story book, from the showboating 100m world record, to breaking a 12 year 200m record people thought was impossible, to getting 3 world records in his first ever appearance at an Olympics. I loved hearing the original reactions here, great vid
I still watch the Bolt's races he's my hero he's beautiful ❤️
Where did those 15 years go? 2008 and we just weren't ready for this guy. We'd never seen the now trademark Bolt 9.9s jog, that 100m final was simply mind blowing and then to break the supposedly untouchable 200m WR a few nights later...

Boi o boi mi watch this a million times n I’m here in 2023 still watching n glu to it like its live
Thanks for posting this, I watched all the rounds back in 2008 on British TV, nice to get the US perspective. At the time I felt not enough was made of his 9.92 quarter final time. Just to put it in context, that was the World Record when I first started watching athletics 20 years prior. To see someone run that time so casually was astonishing. I pretty much knew there and then that we had a freak of nature on our hands. Good to see Boldon and the rest of the team recognize how crazy that run was.

I am in 2024!!😊
1:28:53 is probably the best part about this video, Bolt encourages Powel to go and get it is the ultimate teamwork
Couldn’t agree more, I actually think the reason they changed the relay order was because of Bolts respect for Powel, he didn’t want the entire show to only be about him, and what a final leg by Powel! the guy looked superhuman, amazing example of team spirit
Usain I miss you so much. Men’s track & Field isn’t the same without you 🥹
Thanks for the video! Bolt is the G.O.A.T. and it is awesome to rewatch him storming the Olympics and changing sprint events forever.

Asafa Powell ran his soul out in that relay final👏👏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
One of my favourite 100m performances at 9:30. Jogged a sub 10, looking around like a walk in the park, somehow effortlessly floating along the track whilst everyone else is breaking their neck to keep up.
He would have been a 400m powerhouse

Aton Bolton's is definitely correct about bolt ease down. He also predicted that Usain Bolt could've run 9:59. And a yrs later he did it. It actually run 9:58
Not years later. ONE year later.
I saw Usain ran three times. In the NY Grandpre, at the penns relay, and his last race in London Championship. I love it all.

Am watching this now 2023 like it has never happen before, it's truth this man is irreplaceable
It honestly wasn't so much the wins, it was the character behind them. I have never seen a more humble superstar except of course for Kenaue Reeves. Excuse the incorrect spelling. It was the man Usain Bolt that the world loved, his personality was enthralling at such an height of success.
I think he was looking for Asafa, not just as his competitor but, a desire to see him placed. I feel it for Asafa. That post race demeanor of Asafa......OMG!
It's a gut punch every time I see Asafa's face after that final.
Asafa peaked too early, I wish he peaked in 2012, he would've got the glory of the 2008-2012 Olympic run that Jamaica had.
@@Eastsidecrime well that's just jibberish.
@@stacyb1341 why you say that ?
@Eastsidecrime because Asafa's issues have absolutely nothing to do with when he peaked. Both he and Shelly were known for their starts but coach Francis understood that that would no longer be enough to win races. He told both if them to take up the 200 to increase their endurance & top end speed. Asafa did it for 1 year & stopped. Shelly continued. Shelly improved Asafa did not.
Then in 2012, Asafa had a major injury. He had to be assisted off the track after the JA trials. JAAA should have replaced him instead of sending him to London. As injured as he was he still did well enough to make the Olympic final. That's how superior an athlete he was in 2012.
So that's why your comment makes no sense because not one of Asafa's performance problems stem from when he peaked.
43 minutes in I'm listening to these guys saying that he shouldn't Showboat because it's showing up the other sprinters wait till you cross the line and now look how many people are copying him 😂😂😂😅
Its 2023... its now expected.. they call it "personality" now lol. Was ticked off at the time too but hey, I guess it took some time getting used to, and guess what, Usain was the first to do that too
@@dpw181 I definitely agree but I'm talkin about what they said about him

@chigwesibanyama1148 I'm not saying Nesta didn't deserve the suspension but it was double standard. It was a stimulant found in his vitamin supplement. Other Americans had tested positive for the same stimulant for the same reason (vitamin supplement) around the same time period, and hadn't received a suspension. I have a big problem with the arbitrary way in which punishment is meted out.
No one made Carl Lewis give back his Olympic medals even though he tested positive 3 times for a stimulant that came from his supplements. And were it not for a doctor who came forward years later, no one would have known it happened since both Carl & Team USA hid it from the world.
Double standards. But I'm still mad at Nesta.
@@stacyb1341 Yeah, I still think that ruling was politically driven, and they wanted to mess with Bolt's career numbers. I find it rather suspicious that after Bolt finished his Olympic career in 2016, they waited until 2017 to remove 1 of his Gold Medals, and he was tied with Carl Lewis before they removed the Relay Gold Medal. I personally don't think that Nesta Carter really had anything to do with it, I think the Committee was just looking for a reason to remove a Medal from Bolt. They didn't want to directly attack Bolt, so they attacked one of his teammates, which in return, it affected Bolt indirectly. They basically got what they wanted, without even attacking or going after Bolt himself.
@justinexplainseverything1554 never forget that the President of the IOC despised Bolt. But almost all the sports journalists defended Bolt, & criticized Rogge year after year, and Rogge never forgave Bolt for having his image tarnished. Meanwhile, Carl Lewis tested positive 3 times for a banned stimulant & he's kept all his medals even though he knew he tested positive before going to the Olympics and then had the nerve to call Ben Johnson a cheater knowing the US had hidden his own positive test results. But for a whistle-blower, we'd never have known. Total double standards
I'm still watching this greatness, never get tired of watching the Great Usain Bolt
