His last 100m run was 9.69 seconds as of the 2008 Olympics. He has also ran the 200m in 19.30 seconds and holds the world's best 150m time at 14.35 seconds. usain bolt last 100m race time was 9.58
According to IAAF Analysis Split Times, Usain Bolt ran his first 40m in 4.65 seconds. Subtracting his reaction time which was .165 seconds, he ran the 40m in 4.485 seconds. 40 yards is a totally different measurement than 40 meters. 40 yards is equal to approximately 36.576m
By simple ratio:
(40m/4.485)=(36.576m/X)
X=( 36.576 / (40/4.485) )
Usain Bolt's 40 yard dash would be: A blazing 4.100 seconds! Considering the human error in hand-timed timing used in most combine settings, this time could easily be read as 3.85 seconds at the NFL Combine!
DIFFERING VIEWPOINTS:
There are several errors in this presentation.
I did research comparing the 40 meter times and 100 meter times of extremely fast football players, such as Trindon Holliday, Jeff Demps, Bob Hayes, Deion Sanders, and Herschel Walker. For every 40 yard split of each athlete's 100 meter time, the split was, on average, about .5 seconds faster than the athletes' actual 40 times. I found a common ratio of 40 time to 40 yard splits in the 100: the actual 40 was about 1.142 times longer than the 40 yard split time. record 100 meter time, and using the ratio, I calculated Usain Bolt's probable 40 time to be 4.003 seconds. I know it sounds ridiculous, but the math is correct. It is not an exact science, but it is a very good estimate.
However, don't forget that NFL players don't use "blocks" when doing the 40 as they do in track. They are more prone to "rising" faster out of their stance since they have to push off of the ground instead of the "blocks." Blocks will improve your time.
You cant earn money in the Olympics. The Olympics pay for a win with fame and a gold medal.
Usian Bolt is an easy going fellow. He likes watching cricket and football when he is not running.
yes he graduated in 2003 from William Knibb Memorial High School
Usain Bolt has confirmed that he trains Bench Press regulary as part of his strength program. The reason he trains it is however not to be able to press the most. In fact, the reason for training it is to get a good stability and coordination between upper and lower body. In his website, he answer in a interview that he has never lifted more than 230 pounds.
Bob Marley was and continues to be an icon who personifies peace, love, and harmony around the entire world. Currently, Usain Bolt can run the 100 meter dash faster than anyone else on the planet. While an impressive feat, Usain Bolt's fame does not even hold a candle to the torch which is Bob Marley. Just as a point of reference, nearly 30 years after his death, the name "Bob Marley" is still googled approx 16,600,000 times per month. "Usain Bolt" takes in around 2,400,000 monthly searches. I dare to say that number will be drastically reduced 30 years postmortem.
At the Olympics where Bolt broke the record in 9.72 seconds it was Richard Thompson in 9.89 seconds. At the Berlin World Championships where Bolt broke the record in 9.58 seconds it was Tyson Gay in 9.71 seconds. Of course this answer is for the 100m and not the 200m.
Bolt set the world record for the 100 meter sprint in 2008 with a time of 9.72 seconds.
That's an average speed of 100/9.72 = 10.288 meters per second.
( 37.037 km per hour )
( 23.014 miles per hour )
he trains 4 times a week because sunday is a religious day! luke ramsay is a babe :)he is going to make babies for me and he is my date to prom. luke what up dude :)in intervention with andrew logan and steven dootson
Usain bolts speed is recorded at an average speed of: 23.0mph
Whereas a cheetah's average speed is recorded at 70.0mph
So the answer is NO
I dont know where you get the information that a cheetah can run 70mph because they certainly cannot. A cheetah can reach 50-55mph top speed and i know this because i study zoology. And yes a cheetah would beat Bolts 27mph+ top speed
