Tyson Gay wins in 9.68w @ 2008 Olympic Trials

[Kingas8]

BOLT _ BEST.

THIS FACT!!!

[baracusain12]

Idiot Ato Boldon, just over is 2.1or 2.3 not 4, you fucking cunt.

[TheBigBeavis]

Keep in mind this was ran with a 4.1 m/s tail wind which is over double the legal limit. Where as Usain's 9.69 was run with no wind at all and he didn't even go full throttle in the end. Just sayin'...

[1yd311]

@TheBigBeavis your are right but um tyson gay beat usain bolt at most 3 times in the 100 and usain beat him once just saying

[1yd311]

tyson gay beat usain bolt a good amount of times in the 100 compared to usain beating him so ha

[chocolatethundaish]

Tyson Gay recieved a speeding ticket after this race.

[freestanding1000]

I've never been a fan of American athletes (far too much arrogance and false egotism, including their crowd) but...Maurice Green was my fav sprinter of all time. It was amazing to watch him. Tyson Gay (IMO) is the best sprinter of all time. I know Usain Bolt is the official fastest and I love watching his blazing speed, but height for height Gay is better and faster.

[Djinga]

9.58 says it all. and it's not tyson lol

[dobbins2550]

Lol, the wind.

[ocboy188]

Wow Gay ran 9.68 and 9.69! Bolt only beat that time ONCE! Gay #1

[redhawk123ful]

tyson gay was the man since usain bolt came

[MightyGRBR]

american scum...

[vidres9]

@MightyGRBR douche bag other person....

[29seahawksfan]

@MightyGRBR wow dude if ur gonna bash him then go someware else retard

[illapu05]

you can tell that tyson gay has been affected by surgery in the last few yrs 3 surgeries on your hip flexors takes its toll on you...his start was a lot better here than it is now also, i think had he been healthy for the olympics it would have been another story but we will never know

[fordgtman1992]

Hehe I can see myself in the crowd :) I cant wait for the 2012 Trials in Eugene

[showtimenixon]

thatz bulshit how they tryna say he had to much wind

[woodleyf99]

tyson gay's arms are like helicopter wings

[Trackstarsprinter]

If Tyson didn't get injured during the trials for the 200m I reckon he would of had a good chance of being bolt in the final. His form in these races was consistent!

[kel214]

Tyson Gay favorite American Sprinter. THan comes Walter Dix and Wallace Spearmon. Tyson i belive is the fastest american Ever besides Michael Johnson of course.

[puljacina]

@kel214 i think mo greene would beat tyson if both had their "perfect" race! but it would be very close though..mo was just the more complete 100m sprinter than tyson IMO

[andergra000]

for all you people who say Usain Bolt is better, who cares! Tyson Gay has the American 100 meter record which is an incredible feat all in its own. Just because he isn't the fastest man to ever step foot on this earth does not mean that he is not one hell of an athlete that has earned your respect with runs like this

[Rx3Vixen]

1:13 most manliest hug ever

[MrErede]

bet if tyson was 6 foot 5 he might have the world record too

[jaqua524]

not a great run by tyson...9.85 id say without wind...he had a huge wind on his ass haha

[puljacina]

this would be probably around 9.88 with zero wind

[datleoishot84]

@puljacina no without wind the race would have been 9.72-9.73 the wind wan't that far from the allowed wind time.

[dls2779]

@1:13 not a good look. I understand about the man hug and all but dude your wearing tights and there should be no reason why your pulling the next mans hair. COMON SON!!!!!

[944usainbolt]

wow a 4.1 meter tailwind imagine if he had gotten a start like he did in the quarter final where he ran 9.77 and shutting it down ..... it wud have been faster than 9.58 for sure!

[HairySports]

tyson gay has a style of running that many sprinters share, usain bolt runs in a kinda different way cos of his height. his turnover is amazing, watch out, tyson gay may beat bolt in 2012

[puljacina]

@HairySports what makes you think that he won't beat him next year?

[HairySports]

@puljacina Well he very well may beat him that time, but the thing is with Bolt is that he doesn't take small competitions seriously, its part of the laid-back Jamaican culture, thats why he had a really shit run (in his standards, about 40 milliseconds off his PB) in stockholm this year. though we know ALL athletes take the Olympics seriously because that is just the pinnacle of championships, when both of them put in %100 who wins will really decide the fastest man on earth

[puljacina]

@HairySports damn right,nothing is bigger and more important for an sprinter than the olympic final. but bolt will try his hardest in daegu too because he wants to defend his titles,thats something a "legend" should be able to do! but i think gay has a realistic chance to win gold in daegu if he improves his start and especially his drive phase..we'll see

[944usainbolt]

@phastman99 yeah exactly but if u ever see the side view of bolt's races especially the one at berlin u can see bolt's stride frequency isnt as fast as gay's. just imagine if there was a guy as tall as bolt, had a start like asafa powell, and had a stride frequency like tyson's....automatic sub 9.4 haha

[944usainbolt]

@phastman99 height is an advantage in sprinting but i do agree that if gay was 6'5 and bolt was 5'11 there running styles wud be very different and may not even be world class sprinters

[thatboimal]

@phastman99 IDIOT HE WOULD BE FASTER BECUZ HIS STRIDE FREQUENCY WOULD COVER MORE GROUND ALONG WITH HIS SPEED HIM N USAIN WOULD JUST BE EDGING EACH OTHER OUT USAIN BARELY KICKIN HIS ASS NOW BUT HE IS KICKIN HIS ASS NON THE LESS NOT TAKING ANYTHING AWAY FROM THAT L0L

[69ninerodom]

look at the track black black black look at the crowd white white white white what is this slavery ?

[mamowolde]

dang a flash back of wen ben johnson broke the world record. An then lewis ran a wind aided time at the trials. and wen the olympic final happens..a jamaican wins the olympics in a world record!!SHIT!

[jivetome]

maybe 2 years ago.

[eLiTeXsTatus]

Tyson Gay is in the moment after the race, i guess some ppl dont realize that, since they dont know how to compete..so whoever calls him cocky or arrogent bcuz he's excited, just say nothin anymore

[80gamer]

i can run it in 13.98 im in 7th grade i sux

[MyYearTheDreamer]

Where is he from ?

[Marakesh7]

One has to ask themselves how Jamaican Sprinters can beat the best the U.S.A. has to offer. Jamaica is such a small country. There must be something strange about the metabolism of Jamaicans to enable them to do what they have done.

[caljon776]

@Marakesh7 cause jam has the best sprinter. gay run a good race but he must now beat bolt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BIGAIRLIKE23]

@caljon776

I believe that if gay had the size of Usain Bolt, he would be better than Usain. Usain has a marathon runner body, hes long as fuck.

[caljon776]

@BIGAIRLIKE23 , well lets see whats going to happen when they meet!!!!!!!!!!.

[BIGAIRLIKE23]

@caljon776

Yeah man your right. Its in August I believe.

[caljon776]

@BIGAIRLIKE23 ok lets wait for that time.

[caljon776]

@Marakesh7  good yam and banana with greens.

[NathanAFolefac]

it would have 9.72

[houseofpayne23]

tyson gay is from my home lexington kentucky

[roch202020]

OMG! Look at Walter Dix's dick, is bouncing like a stripper on its first night at the club; lol!

[blackbumbo]

blah blah blah, he's not arrogant, he's just putting life in the sport, he's the one that made people actually look forward to 100m, he said acting like that relaxes him b4 a race, wipes off nervousness, that's just his thing, gay drinks a sip of water b4 every race, everybody has their own thing. and he didn't dismiss gay at b4 the race, it's just part of the friendly rivalry, you don't get friendly b4 the race, but they shook hands and hugged after the race

[145bobby]

tyson is bolt's main rival

and this is truely the fastest time a human being has run 100m!!!

[devbaptiste]

Fastest time ever...until today!

[145bobby]

haha yea it was amazing that bolt did that 9.58

i like gay though because he is for usa

[mamowolde]

Even if Gay loses, he still may get an American record?

[freshtodeathiis]

good time, but yeah the replies are true, usain did it in normal conditions with no where near maximum effort. The thing that gives it away the most was the fact that the other competitors were so close to him. walter dix running 9.80....now YOU KNOW that musta been wind aided, if he ran THAT amazingly (gay), he woulda been pulling away for miles

[snake251]

check out 1:14... tyson gay is really gay..massaging dicks head

[winzalon]

how come tyson did'nt make it to de Olympic finals....

[Skates2much]

Hamstring injury...

[sprinting33]

U can see at 2:06 that the one with the lowest contact times wins the race.

[bossofalltime]

force production + rate of production

[Marakesh7]

Goodbye Usain. Tyson is the man. He will definately beat Bolt in Berlin.

[jaqua524]

haha come on now

[Marakesh7]

I found that Usain Bolt is an extremely arrogant young man who totally dismissed Tyson Gay before and after the 100 metres in Berlin. He would not even look at him whereas Gay was shaking hands with those in the lanes next to him. Although Bolt won I do believe his reign will be short lived. The Americans will not allow this situation to go much further. There is no money in Athletics in the U.S.A. and the best sprinters are making a fortune in football. watch this space.

[jaqua524]

idk about short...but he is very very arrogant, but in a way, its like a show, look at how Muhammad ali was

[sexysomana]

so if usain bolt is arrogant the thing is that he just got confidence in his self.

and usain being so glad that he won made him dismissed his self from tyson but he is that disrepectful so best advice think befor you talk

[sexysomana]

not that disrespectful

[snake251]

SO Y TYSON DIDNT SHAKE BOLT HAND THEN

[Reformed2005]

Whatever, Bolt is a living legend who loves entertaining people. He's only 23 years old. Americans are typically the worlds worst losers.

[cnell403]

@Marakesh7 you really think the fastest sprinters in the us are in football? ha that must be a joke the fastest guy is Chris Johnson and he only ran a 10.38 in college....not even close

[jaqua524]

@Marakesh7 9.58...19.19..nuff said

[datleoishot84]

@jaqua524 this was a few years ago gay now has a personal best of 9.69 and 19.58 (without racing bolt) the last time bolt raced tyson in the 200 meters gay won. they haven't ran the 200 meters against each other since 2007 world championships

[jaqua524]

@datleoishot84 i know, my point is its tough to bet against a healthy bolt

[kryminalll]

Wind aided. Usain ran 9.69 without the wind and with out running the last 10 metres

[edmondsonave03]

@kryminalll its running how people jump band wagon to band wagons..lol! everybody on Bolt nuts now..

[adams63]

@kryminalll 20meters lol

[CLstarsTV]

@kryminalll You act like he just came to a total stop.. By celebrating, he lost NO momentum and his speed stayed about the same.

[sokha326]

@kryminalll Then ran 19.19 into a headwind for a 200m WR

[kryminalll]

@sokha326 Real talk..
