The man with the “Lightning” Speed !

With a surname like “Bolt”, he was definitely destined to be FAST.

Just in case you live under a rock, here is a little something about the man with the super speed from Trelawny.

Usain St. Leo Bolt, born 21 August 1986 is a Jamaican sprinter widely regarded as the fastest person to ever live.

He is the first man to hold both the 100 metres and 200 metres world records since fully automatic time measurements became mandatory in 1977. Along with his teammates, he also set the world record in the 4×100 metres relay. He is the reigning Olympic champion in these three events, the first man to win six Olympic gold medals in sprinting, and an eight-time World champion. He was the first to achieve a “double double” by winning 100 m and 200 m titles at consecutive Olympics (2008 and 2012), and topped this through the first “double triple” (including 4×100 m relays).
