I think he'll got sub 9.5 within the next few years, he seems to have a bit more in him. It's amazing how fast he is compared to everyone else, not just in the field, but everyone who has ever lived. I don't think there's ever been a bigger gulf in which records are still being broken.

Absolutely incredible stuff. I was watching last night hoping some miracle would see Dwain Chambers getting gold. Apparently the Bolt there's got his eyes on 9.4 now. Funnily enough, I can see him getting it.

He can get it. If you watch closely on that video of this record, he biffed the whole shot a little bit and just made it up in stride and still broke the record. I think with a good clean start and a smooth finish, this guy can put up some ridiculous times.

I does, longer legs, bigger strides. Thats not to say a shorter individual couldnt beat a taller one but the taller individual automatically has an edge.

He's my height, 6'5", and it makes a difference.

For sure, damn thats tall, Im 6'3, I used to run alot back in middle and high school and the height helped for sure. There's always the exception though, I mean, a short guy could be gifted from birth and outrun all sorts of tall guys, but then you get a guy like Bolt and its chaos, he's got the height and the genetics.
