Usain Bolt ran the 2nd leg for Jamaica. He took Jamaica from 4th to 1st with a 45.35 split. He is the only person in the race that is 6 ft 5.

I remember this race, I Ran Anchor for the Bahamas Team, we got the Bronze, good times good times...lol

he was running faster than the camera

Amazing 1080p

wow, this was so long ago, I ran anchor for the Bahamas after running a grueling 1500m.....my legs were dead to the world

A week or 2 ago Michael Norman ran an open 45.19 400m, and ran a 44.9 split anchor leg, and he's just a Junior 17 years old like Usain in this video. he's gonna get big I'm calling it.

Start a petition. USAIN BOLT Olympic legend should move to the 400m in 2016 Rio Olympics. By the way he ran the 2nd leg for Jamaica.

I have no doubt that Michael Johnson is the best quarter miler around. The fact that many pundits of Track and Field believed the 200M would stay around for their lifetime and it was broken twice by bolt at 21 and 22. He was a better quarter miler than a 100M runner and there are still many people in Jamaica, including his coach who believes he is still a better 400M metre runner than a 200M. Bolt himself said, it takes too much to train for a 400M.

The last 2 legs almost gave away the whole race!!! They both cruised until the last 100m after totally giving away the leads they were given.

The guy who won the race was smart, perfect timing on his move.

Audio and video both excellent

Yeah Team Bahamas, i see yal! Good run..

Listen for the name Aldrich Bailey, this kid is gonna be a BAAAAD man! He could potentially make the US Olympic team in the 400 or 4x400 relay pool if he's not been too worn out from a long season and can make it through the rounds in Eugene.

Man... that was vicious

I remember this race, I was on the under 17 Jamaican 4*4 team :)

He's like a giant besides the other guys!!! :O

More to come..

Nice

Let's go cayman! what i like to hear

13 and run a 57.1... This is so demoralizing! I mean like JESUS did you see him?!?!?!? HOLY SHIT

WR for the open 400 is 43.18 WR for a 4x4 split is 42.91. Both held by Michael Johnson. Jeremy Wariner did run a 42.93 split in Osaka 2007, but sence he's been lucky to break 45.

cool. now let's see you race Usain

great!

When asked about the awesome times folks reported and asked how would like to have them on our AU track team, Coach Rosen said he'd rather have the timer for the runners he already had, lol.

Wow bolt is amazing second leg

The caption is incorrect, he was 16 at that time not 17. This race took place at the 2003 boys and girls championship before his 17th birthday

I should be writing my paper right now......

what the hell is usain bolt wearing on his feet

nice

The Flash, wish I can run fast and strong like him

Like if your watching in 2015! (Usain Bolt has already broken many records [He became the legend!])

I love you

Unbelievable

Bolt is the fucking man Such an amazing athlete

I ran Anchor leg for the Bahamas in the 4*400m relay, wow it's been a while

he runs so fast

he takes big-ass steps

yea

its funny as his stride length is so long he looks like hes just jogging yet he still flies past people

pretty sure each of them just beat my school record

Because he is from Jamaica..... America has 300 million people, Jamaica has 3 million.... That is one percent of the American population... We were born to run.

What's all the noise from. It sounds like a honking horn.

Yeah that's the point dude. Since he tested positive he cannot accept that there are clean athletes out there performing better than he used to.

UB is insane! So These are anchor legs. Well that's goof news for my boy who at 17yrs 7 mos. ran a 45.56 anchor verified by the trackside timer at California's CIF SS Masters race. And at the CIF CA State Finals the next week ran a 45.54. State finals program had a write up too. A few weeks earlier the OC Register's Varsity Section reported a 45.8 in one of his races. Not quite 3 yrs of track and field so far. PrepCalTrack's editor nicknamed him The Beast....cause he runs everyone down when he needs to. He's still learning how to run the 400. His slow first 200 is nearly identical in time as his 2nd 200, so when he figures out he needs to run under 22 in the 1st 200 then perhaps Olympian Bryshon Nellum's California State Record may fall.

wow

Usain Bolt was also 17 when he did it and hadn't been training as hard as he does now. I'm pretty certain that difference couldn't been made up by now.

I love how the camera couldn't keep up with him. hehe

Theres a guy at my school who just graduated and got a 40.18 second 400m

2nd leg!!!

Never comaplaining about track video quality again after this

Because it's Usain Bolt...

Half these guys went pro. two are representing the U.S in the Olympics this year,(Lashawn and Bryshon)

man fast

The people who start an argument is even dumber.

great ass race!. damn.. and usain is insane!lol

so which one was usain bolt? the last one in the black t-shirt who came first?

Am I the only one amazed that he can actually run 400m

There's always someone faster in the future without exception

@blackshardy Still running?

These Caribbean Athletes are so damn fast especially those Jamaicans 1st Yohan Blake 19.35 2nd Usain Bolt 19.36 3rd Christophe Lemaitre 19.75 :) Can't wait for these 200m finals...btw Carl Lewis need to see this race and shut the hell up about who is taking drugs especially since he TESTED POSITIVE in his career

If anyone is wondering, Usain is the black one.

he will never be arrested

200 and 400 were his events as a teenager. His coaches didn't think he would be great at the 100 because he's so tall.

What was a relay split man? Bolt's 45.35 was in a normal, open 400m... he split 44.4 in a relay when he was young

OK giving respect NOW where its due USAIN BOLT is the greatest Sprinter of all time B - Believe O - Overcome L - Lead T - Takeover Carl Lewis step aside USAIN BOLT RULE the...#TrackNation

when he was 17?

tall guy in all black running the second leg

which one is usain bolt??

@juninhopernambucano3 Yes Usain was just 17 years old {Born 21/08/1986 - Date.of.Race 11/04/2004} = 17 years old

where is usain.please make this clear. post a better copy

what leg was he?

Yeah but i know i think that was him in the black on the second leg but i just got confused so i was making sure, i watched all of it, very entertain to see him at 17 running.

XD the fourth person to argue it was a joke to see how many people would respond. :P

1st Usain Bolt(jam) 9.47 wind +1.9 2nd Yohan Blake (jam) 9.67 3rd Tyson Gay (usa) 9.69 4th Asafa Powell (jam) 9.71 5th Justin Gatlin (usa) 9.80 6th Keston Bledman (t&t) 9.84 7th Christophe Lemaitre (fra) 9.91 8th Kim Collins (skn) 9.95

the cameraman is on drug for sure

nigga stoll my bike

42.9 is what Michael Johnson ran when he did the last leg of the 4x400m

dam...its takes me at least 2mins to get one lap

@aeiou99999 Thank you. Someone here understands how to time a split.

2 seconds in the 400m is a huge difference.

yaa

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Lemaitre from mainland France?

in a relay its 42.9, actually. Michael Johnson, 4th leg

2nd leg

It's not so rare anymore, there's usually one or two each year. 12 Aldrich Bailey, TX - 45.19 11 Arman Hall, FL - 46.01 10 Josh Mance, CA - 45.90 09 Tavaris Tate, MS - 45.48 09 Clayton Parros, NJ - 45.71 07 Bryshon Nellum, CA - 45.38 05 David Gettis, CA - 45.84 04 Lashawn Merritt, VA 45.25 04 Xavier Carter, FL - 45.44 04 Elzie Coleman, NY - 45.93 04 Cedric Goodman, GA - 45.94 03 Xavier Carter, FL - 45.88 02 Kelly Willie, TX - 45.52 02 Jeremy Wariner, TX - 45.57 02 Ashton Collins, LA - 45.95

GREATEST!

this was in bermuda in 2004 carifta

45.3 on that second leg for Bolt @ 17 years old.

I'm 14 years old and my 300m - 45sec, how he is so fast? he run in the same time 100metres more :O

Bolt is amazing but 45.35 is quite accurate since its a relay. Usually 400 relay times can be plus/minus 2 seconds

Also fastest people run the 2nd and Anchor in relays..

That was a split time? Not Open?

This was a Track and Field meet time but 6 different people. Im sure its very correct i couldnt imagine it being 5 seconds off.

look who's talking mate

the pixel in first place

even the camera guy couldnt keep up.

@jermainegqboy what do you think

da he go right dur...dat my baby daddy

"it was a joke i wanted to see how long people would argue."So really the purpose of the original comment is to start an argument...

Which one was him? All I saw was just a bunch of fast black guys. LOL
