New 100m World Record

Anybody that thinks that Bolt is on drugs is an idiot.

Bolt has never failed a drug test, but five other Jamaicans are facing an appeal after testing positive for a substance that is not on the banned list, but is similar in composition to one that is.One of them is. yohan blake is a training partner of bolt at racers track club in kingston. Nobody has yet explained publicly how five athletes came to test positive for the same substance. A training partner of bolt has same coach as bolt, bolt is innocent till proven guilty but it does seem a bit strange dont you think? That designer drug(Chambers was proven to be taken) is supposed to undetectable they are always designing new drugs which are suppose to be even harder to detect, that is why it is possible to take them, be randomly tested on various occasions and still have results come back as negative.

I also think it is a bit strong to say someone is an idiot for not sharing your opinion. It is possible to disagree with someone, and make your point without being rude and agressive(anyone that cant do that is an idiot).

The fact that people are not looking at the actual facts is what makes them idiots. The amount of times that Bolt gets tested (and passes) proves irrefutably that he cannot be on drugs. So what if the 5 Jamaicans tested positive, so what if one of them is his training partner who shares his coach. Do you not think that maybe they could of needed drugs to keep up with the fastest man in the world? Or simply to be better because they are not the best? Do you not think that if Bolt were on those same drugs he would of got caught considering how often he gets tested? Do you not think that Bolt does not need drugs because he is the fastest man alive? You do not get tested that often and never have anything found unless, guess what, you have not taken anything. And do not feed me that BS about some sort of super drug that can never be detected ever, because if he was on it do you not think that his training partner who has the same coach (your fact) would be on it too? He definately would. Oh wait he just tested positive for something that can be found, (obviously because he tested positive). So just deal with the fact that Bolt is clean, he is too high profile and does tests way too often to be anything but. You are accusing the man of doping because of what reason? You were once an olympic hopeful but were found guilty of a doping offence and are adamant that everybody is guilty because you were? Of are you just jealous? He is clean, deal with it.

9.58 x 2 = 19.16 which shows how difficult it is to maintain the speed of the first 100 metres & keeping going through the next 100 metres without losing speed, I doubt even Bolt could run the perfect 2 x 100's (200) at the same speed.

It would however be interesting to see the 200 metres run on the straight to see if it is the running of the bend which slows a runner.

If that drug that Dwain Chambers took was supposed to be undetectable.....Why was he Banned????

Im not gonna call u an idiot for thinking the way u do...but u are very closed minded in your argument, by your reckoning anyone running sub 10 secs is a cheat and thats just wrong!!!

You are not giving an extrordinary athlete the credit he deserves...and yes he's innocent till proven guilty but remember he hasnt been even accused yet..Why? cos he keeps passing the tests!!!

those other 5 athletes from jamaica that tested positive,were as far as im aware were not taking performance enhancing drugs,they were recreational drugs( coming from jamaica ......)

its not realy a case of two perfect 100 metres becase he is slow out the blocks . he makes up the ground in the race though so a fit and fresh bolt will be amazing

He wasn't slow out of the blocks in the 100, he got out on the 'b' of the bang...as Linford used to say.

However the point I was making is that it is unlikely that an athlete ( Bolt included ) will be able to go faster in the final 100 metres of the 200 than he does in the first 100 metres so it is unlikely he will ever go under 19 secs.

Well, I believe there's more chance he's on something illegal then not. The fact that he's decimating records that have been held by drugs cheats in the past does make me wonder. However, it seems like all sprinters are on something illegal so he's still the best ever, even it's proven he is on PED's. There are new designer drugs made every other year that go undetectable for a certain amount of time, so don't be surprised that he's clean on tests for the time being.

Thank you seth that was exactly what I was trying to say. ON another point Chambers took a designer drug which other athletes have taken yet being tested negative where as he got caught. So maybe it is possible that Bolt got lucky where as his team mates were un lucky. In short it is possible for two athletes to take the same drug one get tested negative another positive.
