[Applause] usain lightning bolt the precocious youngster 21 years old all but begged his coach to let him run on the 100 in addition to the 200 and the result but he may be the one to rewrite all the records and a fair start asap usain bolt is also out well here they come down the track usain bolt spreading ahead winning by daylight and setting a world record the wind is okay new world record how easy was that they have now gone into the realm of video game times 9.69 for usain bolt and he made it look easy i have never seen another 100 meter olympic champion run that easy he dominated this field this has never been seen before in olympic history ever there is the man of the hour still clowning and he can come before and he can clown after but during the race if this young man wants to go down in olympic history and make himself a legend tonight he has got to keep the hammer down all the way through 200 meters [Music] there's the start and bolt with those big long strides off to a good start he's flying around the curve walter dix is there and spearman hoping to kick it in and sean crawford but usain bolt's in front and he's pulling away bald has the lead widening the margin all by himself across the line bolt 1931. who says lightning doesn't strike the same place twice usain bolt struck in the hundred and now he's struck again world record usain bolt i knew that he had the speed to do it he just had to keep the hammer down and we wait for the official time and it's even better 19.30 and listen to this he did it into a minus point nine headwind this is the greatest performance perhaps that we have ever seen in a track and field event he broke michael johnson's world record and had a headwind in his face to do it what a performance by usain bolt the world record that i thought would be the record at 200 meters on the day i died is gone in 12 years i am number one and i ran the third leg at times i'm glad i'm up here and not running third leg down there because that is going to be a woo leg when he gets that stick and the jamaican anchor will be the former world record holder of safa powell first photonics change now michael freighter and he's flying down the back stretch now usain bolt hand off to bolton he's on his way around the curve look at bull goal with those big long strides jamaica the lead assafa powell runs the anchor here's the handoff and assafa pal has it and he's way out in front jamaica with another romp asapha pal in jamaica with a devastating performance [Applause] 37.10 a new world record when you put two of history's fastest men on the track that's what happens 37 40 has been there since 1992 and jamaica just took that record down by three tenths of a second they obliterate the men's four by 100 meter record world record for both times three now in the hundred the 200 and now in the four by one he has stamped himself as one of the greatest olympic performers ever olympic games are often remembered for their 100 meter

and showing everybody that was talking all kind of stuff that i'm still the best i'm always going to be number one no matter what bolt is in seven the world record holder the world champ the world

runs himself into history as the first man to do the 100 and 200 meter olympic double in back-to-back olympic games the reason why we close track and field meets around the world now olympics and world championships with the 4x1 is because they want this guy on your screen to have the last save and of course the anchor is the greatest sprinter of all time usain bolt and there's the gun carter for jamaica kimmons for the us here comes the first photon exchange justin gatlin takes the baton for the united states both of those passes weren't the best but you have to think the u.s has a little bit of a lead here tom gavin has done the job down the back stretch here's tyson gabe for the us johann blake for jamaica it's the us and jamaica right together here come the anchors it will be usain
