The simple answer is this: YES. The only problem is HOW MUCH he taking. I can look at a Jamaican in the face and tell them Usain Bolt is on steroids. The reason I am so sure is because every athlete that every ran did. Carl Lewis, 9 time Olympic Gold medalist, took steroids but did not get banned because of the quantity he took. He was not banned fo that reason. On the other had, Ben Johnson did take steroids and alot more that Carl Lewis. If you ever see Ben Johnson today, you would could tell right away. He quoted that he took it because if he did not, he would not have kept up with them boys. It is what you can do alongside dope that makes you the best. Sorry Ben, that true, but don't overdose. Carl Lewis failed 3 doping test and Ben Johnson only fail 1. Yet it was quantity that made Ben Johnson the biggest loser.BOTTOM LINE: Only time can tell but unless you name is Jesse Owens, your not the greatest sprinter because you are surrounded by people making dope.ANSWER:First, you're either all American or you're not. Second, it says to believe him. "Seriously" He is dead serious. I guess we have no right to question Bolt's going from 10.03 to 9.69 (while easing up) in 1 year in a sport riddled with countless marks of steroid abuse. Right? I mean the first poster WAS DEAD SERIOUS TOO. Are you kidding me? As Carl Lewis said "You'd be a fool not to question it". The fact is that no one knows except for Bolt and God. If he is taking them, sooner or later we'll find out. ANSWER:I talked to a lawyer who used to run track in college and he said that it is impossible for a human to make the kind of gains like Bolt unless he is taking steroids. So after hearing his argument I'd have to say of course he is using steroids and they are going undetected by the testing committee. He HAS NEVER TAKEN STERIODS!
