Bolt at the Olympics in Beijing has been reached with open shoes, and the final 20 meters jubilantly 9.69 seconds. Now he has fully pulled through and the world showed what he can run. He had announced the wrong race in the world. He delivered the wrong race in the world.
Bolt is beside himself after the victory lap. The 50,000 fans get their mouths any more. Bolt: "It's wonderful. These fans here have given me so much energy. But the games continue, I want more. "
