Usain Bolt: The Fastest Of All Time vs. Rastio Lyool: Track Speed

This weekend we witnessed history as Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt captured the the 100 meter title at the Olympics and broke his previous world record. Jamaicans all over the world are celebrating the first victory in the Olympics by a male competitor since the great Donald Quarrie won gold at the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Bolt cruised to the finish line all thanks to his diet consisting of the infamous Trelawny yellow yam from his hometown and genetically enhanced ackee and saltfish. Less than 24 hours later we witnessed history once again as his teammate Shelly-Ann Fraser led the way for team Jamaica as they swept the 100 meters and left the United States in the dust once again. With several sprint events left my country looks to continue their domination and Bolt looks to capture the sprint double in the 100 and 200 meters similar to Carl Lewis in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. At the end of the day Bolt still can’t see me on the track. teleport for video footage Bless, Rastafari!
