How Much Time Did Usain Bolt Really Have In The 100M Race
He was 5.4 seconds into the race when he started pulling away from the field.
He was 9.1 seconds into the race when he tapped his heart with his fist and gestured to the crowd.
He was 9.3 seconds into the race when he completed a Sudoku puzzle and sent a text message to his agent.
The laces on his left golden track shoes were untied when he crossed the finish line. He still ran the race in 9.69 seconds. Soon he might reveal he had forgotten to take off his ankle weights.
