Usain Bolt: 9.69 and 19.30
August 20, 2008

Wow, wow, wow.

This guy is absolutely amazing. What he accomplished at this year's Olympics is mind boggling. How could he sprint away from the world's best runners like that?

I'm sitting here watching a grainy YouTube video. Pitty that in 2008, with 1080p, this is the best I've got. (I'd be more than happy to pay $100 for well-produced 1080p Bluray of these Olympics!)

Every time I watch the replay, I just can't believe what I'm seeing. I hope Usain Bolt isn't the next Ben Johnson, but for now I'm a believer.

Wow.

Checkout this amazing video. It's weird to think that the day is coming when they'll be able to animate digitally rendered people so that you truly can't tell whether what you're looking at is real or synthetic. Eek!
