Wait you started a thread analyzing his run and you don't have a video of it to analyze. So your analyzing your skepticism and downplaying what was reported. Got it. Please edit title.


The article was anaylzing it. I just gave my thoughts. No one on the planet has ran a 4.12 40 outside of a 40 no one seen or could prove except the scout who reported it.

Bolt's 200m world record is proof that his strength is not in the start of the race, but in his ability to finish it.


Suprise, he is also fast at the 400M as well.

Hey guess what, he is also fast at the 40.

That is pretty horrible analysis. That is " no one has done it so he couldn't have" deep thoughts right there. .

I never said he wasn't. I said I think Bo could beat him because I understand that there's a difference between quickness and top end speed and I'd give Bo the edge on quickness every time.

Bo ran against Herschal at the SEC Track Championship held in Auburn Bo's Freshman year. Bo outran the field out of the blocks, but Herschal caught him in the end. Neither runner won the race, but it was obvious that both could outrun spriters in the 40.

Wouldn't surprise me if Bo did. You are looking at it wrong man. For instance, I ran a 4.5 40 in high school, but only clocked out at 7 flat- 7.1 in the 60 at recruiting showcases for baseball. In comparison, my buddy rand a 4.7 40 and a 6.8 60... I was far quicker, but he would blow me outta the frickin' water once he got to his top speed.

In conclusion, you are comparing apples to frickin' bananas...

I'd give him a legit 4.28, but he didn't run in the 4.1s.

Still, a genetic freak and marvel.

The only time I have ever ran a 4.2 was to the fridge but I was standing right beside it and I really wanted a beer.
