Usain Bolt is a Jamaican man who stands around 6 feet 5 inches,this height makes him somewhat of an unlikely success in the 100, a burst that typically favors shorter, stockier runners. But he manages to reach blazing speed with unusual stride length and stride frequency.Sometime in March,Usain Bolt was a 200 runner dabbling in the 100 for "speed work," but what he accomplished was worth so much more. On May 30th, 2008 on Randall's Island, Usain Bolt broke the world record in the 100-meter dash. He ran his race and broke the tape in 9.72 seconds. This new time, shed .02 seconds off of Jamaican countryman Asafa Powell's mark. This, of course, set a new world record, making Usain the World's fastest man.
