world record is actually 46.78 i was at the race
What the second person to break 47?
imagine what the time would be if he cleared the final hurdle!
Official world record is 46.70
My right ear doesn't feel as stimulated as the left one
Dang this guys been commentating for decades
so what's his 400 meter dash record?
1:14 He did not pass the last hurdle. It should not be a legal record !
On some serious narcotics here.
Akabusi.
Not to mention 8.95m Mike Powell 1991...
And I suppose they don't take drugs now? I don't think there is anything suspect about this record...All of the East German records on the other hand...
World records in 80s and early 90s are subject to questioning as there were so many drug cheats got away without getting properly tested...!
Paralympians can run faster than you
I spent 4 days with Kevin Young and he's one of the nicest funniest people you could ever meet. He's truly amazing and an inspiration.
That's INSANE!!!!! my open 400 time is 53.79 and that guy runs sub-47 with hurdles. dammmmmm
@cegtown agreed, i would add zelezny's 98.48m with the new javelin and sotomayor's 2.45 imo
@puljacina That is a good analysis. I agree. This performance and Bubka's record (and with respect to Rudisha's new WR) have to be the toughest marks on the books to date.
@cegtown yep,angelo taylors PB's are 47.25/44.05 so young had easily the potential to go sub 44 if he wanted
@melglen1 lol I love how they are tall "black" legs
