[slifermike1]

beasten out of control

[EvanHershey]

The camera needs some Claritin Clear.

[lilfrefre99]

i couldnt tell, which pixel was liu?

[fadelessphantom]

wooww nice quality pic.....NOT! 1 star rating on this since i couldnt even hear anything ontop of tht

[rootlick1]

why is he a failure and a disgrace? because he got injuried? mmmm that makes sense. but i am sure you could do better mmmm right

[BballPlayer1234567]

I love how when they jump over the hurdles it look like they are going so slow, but right when they hit the ground their feet go crazy. It's freaking sick.

[thesoilderofmine]

nice he is pretty fast but go check out mikio island this boy is sick!

[shredsledder91]

shittiest fucking quality

[BAPIBABADO]

the 2nd place runner was clearly a faster sprinter and stronger runner.

[XAtreyuXOwnsX]

obviously not if he got second.

[StormSays]

Robles FTW...

[rctiger045]

Damn everything looked simultaneously.

[GetUpAndTryAgain]

injury is one of the worst things that can happen to an athlete's career. just thought i'd throw that out there. o_O

[calais054]

if someone can run and jump over 10 hurdles while running the 100m in what .. less then 12 or 13 sec.. they would have to be pretty fast at running the hundred aswell, now bolt doesnt compete in hurdles. Now by bolts attitude, Im sure he would also like to win gold in hurdles aswell but he musnt be agile enough. It just proves that liu has more versitility than him..

[BAPIBABADO]

definatetly not, hurdle form takes years to perfect, or even come close to perfecting. Bolt would destroy those runners in an open 100. But his form probably sucks because he doesnt train hurdles.

[miTeeAli]

somebody tell me why he didnt go to bejing

[omgitskher]

He pulled a muscle.

[sediments28]

Lol.....I heard a rumour that Liu's P.R. for the 100 flat is around 12.86...lmao

[chinese0o]

its a shame he didnt compete in beijing

[cr0nte]

we0n penka xD

[doomwar]

liu xiang rocks ON!!!!

[hoaquynh94]

it's pretty sad that he can't run anymore...just think, all that training and hard work you put into this, and then it gets shattered. It's hard, y'know? he was the only reason i wanted to see this year's olympics. i remember 4 years ago  nobody thought he could win, and he did. that's pretty much the spirit of the olympics.

[yaokobe]

I think he will be back, it's just unfortunate he got injured at the olympics

[AnonymousTart]

black people own running. It's a fact and will probably be true for at least the next 10-15 years.

[jdlund]

I don't know why people are downing your post, you're correct. Jessie Owens, Carl Lewis, Edwin Moses, Michael Johnson, and, obviously, Usain Bolt. Is there anyone willing to argue that Liu Xiang is somehow better than Bolt? I mean maybe China changed the meaning of the word 'better' along with their gymnasts passports. Because I look at Bolt's three world record breaking gold medals as being better than Xiang bitching out like a little girl and quitting because he knew he was going to lose.

[calais054]

your a real idiot. Just because he couldnt run in this olympics doesnt mean his scared. He has already proven to the WORLD that he is the best at what he wants to be. And bolt is good but hes a show pony and I bet he aint agile enough to do hurdles. As for you I dont see you running do I ??? Now by what you have written sounds like ur a lil bitch urself. Go and play ur lil xbox, and then u may have a chance of winning a gold in ur lil olympics.

[calais054]

I was replying to jdlund

[minigambo]

oh well jackson still owns in my books

[hereticslipknot]

only a matter of time before colin jackson's record was broken.... and it will be broken again records are made to be broken

[taiwan8]

well the myth that blacks are physically superior is about to come crashing down. Asians running faster than blacks? We will see Liu Xiang beating them again in 2012. It's about time we saw some diversity in the hurdles winners.

[Icecube88]

it was not a myth and it was not about ALL blacks being faster, it was a majority of them. too bad liu xiang got injured though, wanted to see him race.

[Icecube88]

it sucks because he will be 30 years old in 2012, so his career is about finished.

[prsorolland]

don't think lie will win anymore,now robles is better then liu,and after an accident its always hard to get the same performance

[Hazezoooooo]

one of china's pride

[02bash]

he had a bad day, how do the Chinese fans feel about this will you still love him and support him for 2012 or do you feel kind of angry of him and a let down

i would really like some reply on how the Chinese feel about Liu Xiang

[jess168]

We still love and support him.

[yourballsareinert]

you cant help but feel bad for him after he pulled out due to injury. Gotta love his heart though.

[lmjames33]

That's so disrespectful and so cowardly. Esecially to type and say this sort of stuff online. Knowing that you would not walk up to any black man and just call him a nigger. Grow up man!

[Netfuturista]

good day

China Yakuza

W Bolt!!!

[mutualfunmanager]

This guy is dominating all right. ahahahahahaha

[clarkmaster10]

i hurdle in high school and it doesnt matter what race you are. The thing bout hurdling is technique and being in shape. if you dont have technique, you cant do anything in a hurdle race.

[zhcg]

cant believe he dropped out of the olympics

[skyflame000]

Wow I can't even browse through the comments without seeing racist remarks being thrown around here and there. Gotta admit I was very surprised - as it is quite unusual for an Asian, and in this case, a Chinese guy, dominating in track and field since you don't many of them in this sport but y'all gotta give credit where it's due.

[KoeiVidz]

I bet if you did those hurdles youd knock down all....

[michellex4292]

he's amazing. i was so happy when he won the gold in the olympic 4 years ago. i hope he does it again in beijing for his home country. GO CHINA!

[Sailor473]

Not this time. Robles will win!!!! Go Cuba.

[maha1231]

he's realllly good, i mean just look at his form. kinda rediculous,

[ihs0y]

well, i believe he is different from other chinese guys. in terms of body shape?

[gabe228]

he is exactly like other northern chinese, skinny, tall, and fair... i duno how he pushed his skinny body to defeat those muscly niggas

[XurinSTINKTx]

12.91

[Chrisfay91]

what was the record b4 ?

[Sailor473]

Liu is dead meat hehehe. Is Robles all the way. Go CUBA

[lobelia2]

go fuck yourself

[Sailor473]

Sure you fuck. Cheaters using children to win the gold on gymnastics. Cheaters cheaters. Cuba will win the 110m. Dont worry you'll see the day is coming.

[lobelia2]

sounds like fucking sour grapes to me. go play whiffle ball bitch

[Crapidiot]

wtf?

i never see chinese ppl go to those opponents videos and diss them becauase we won

you ppl are so classless

[gabe228]

lol... cuba wins shit

[DaritoCUBA]

Robles got him..

[Crapidiot]

why?

[LandoDaLover]

dude you have some serious issues, It doesn`t matter wich country the guy is from. he win..nuff sayin asshole

[alex5161996]

go fuck yourself yankee wankee

[noobs09]

it was random for me cz i was watching all running world records before this and they were all black people.

i am sorry i didnt mean to offend anybody

[ichibansweets]

You're really racist. Why should you discriminate? People like Liu Xiang have talent and deserve to be a champion.

[Crapidiot]

i agree

some ppl are really insecure

u need to learn something from chinese and be more humble

[redbmusic]

Liu Xiang, is a Human-Rocket!! Chino es un Cohete-Humano!!

[troy19w]

kid from my school ran a 13.9

[kaze254]

omg he is so good. This past track season i finally decied to do track and i did hurdles. My best time is 15.5 in western mass and im only a sophmore now. My final year i hope to be runnin 14s!!

[decaDBZ]

height is really important in hurdles at this height (well specifically hip height) as the lower yer hips are the more u hav to raise them everytime u do a hurdle. You want to minimize how much u raise yer hips as this wastes precious time!

[InSaine10]

na dude hieght isnt that big of a factor i'm 6'4" and i run a 4.6 40 but my best time as a freshman in highscool is only a 16.4 and that time at 12.88 is just plain amazing

[undeadretard7]

he had a great start...better than anyone else...i think that broke the record for him

[saturnv3]

jesus christ! This is so annoying! They 3 step each hurdle, and you can barely see their legs moving! And they just snap their legs over the hurdles...

how do they do it??

[undeadretard7]

i 3 step every hurdle...im a jr in highschool, just started running hurdles 3 weeks ago and i 3 stepped my first ever run through of 110 hurdles...its really not that hard

[Nellysan916]

Same sorta, I'm a sophmore and my second try at hurdling I 3 stepped. You just have problems if you're short xD

[hahahahhaahhahhahaha]

I'm in middle school and i do hurdles my fastes time was 14.9 i'm a noob XD i got 3rd in my state though

[alex5161996]

Awesome!! I've just started secondary school and my best is 15.03

[Thisisreality434]

Yea the stepping matters alot, but his form is really good too and runs pretty nice. All this comes into play. :)

[kickdim]

its harder if ur 5'4 like me :D

[Trackmaster14]

the taller you are is a facter indeed but Xaing has to be atleast 5'10". Three steps in between hurdles and pull ur trail leg! think about it, if your tall u can practilally step over the hurdles lol!!

[Thisisreality434]

Yep, I'm 5"10 too :D

[hellblade23]

sorry to burst your bubble but hes 1.89m or 6ft 2 inch

[Trackmaster14]

i didn't really know i wuz just trying to make a point =/

[emanuelis8]

He doesn't touch any hurdles and still gets a WR thats amazing

[lsufan337]

Ok, what does lui run in the 110m dash???? Someone please reply this

[lsufan337]

No 100m dash i meant** please repley

[Thisisreality434]

It says it in the description, please read :) 12.88 seconds. Looks like he's getting better too.

[SiobhanZX]

I think he meant 100m non-hurdle

[Thisisreality434]

Oh, well, didn't see that. thanks :)

[locoboys]

New American record as well which also broke the former world record of 12.91 with a time of 12.90...very nicely done.

[LightSpeed99999]

I think in between the hurdles is when he starts pulling away becasuse of his turnover.

You Chinese people are too good at some things. Kudos.

[TheAndymanCan213]

wow...looks like theyre about to fall forward at the end...whatd that guy that finish right after him get?

[tmeighen50]

12.90

[hornedbeast91]

whats funny is that he doesn't have the best start but is still extremly fast

[mitch4t]

To be a record-setting hurdler, you need extrordinary speed, balance, flexibility and flawless technique. This guy put it all together better than anyone in history.

I've seen them all since 1964...I thought Renaldo Nehemiah was the greatest..but this guy is even better. I would have loved to see them compete against each other.

Give him his due, he's a great one.

[deedeedark]

collin jackson?

[lsufan337]

Lui Xiang may have the record, but collin jackson and allen jackson ran more consistant good races than lui. But All Mint Hurdlers that set the bar for years to come.

[hornedbeast91]

i saw him live and ooh god he and allen webb are my favorite runners to watch

[insanityismygravity]

the title is kinda wrong a mean he didny reely shatter it he beat by a small margine

[norkysa111]

yea, I mean if he got like .2 or .3 better that would be shattering. But I mean, .03 is just the margin it's usually beaten by.

[IheartPRETTIboys]

PROUD TO BE CHINESE

GO LIU XIANG

YOU MADE HISTORY AND CHINA PROUD

woot!

[ronMexico121]

This guy is an inspiration to us all..."Race" is nothing!

[sweeper1977]

Liu Xiang's skill is the best in the world. He may not have the best physical ability, but watch the replay -- his action of "crossing the hurdle" is so clean and significantly faster than others.

[Spearchuckers]

I hate to admit it but your right. I'm a 6 foot 5 in. person that would smoke are 5'4" star hurdler in a flat out race in highschool but his hurdle technique was so perfect i swore i saw him go through the hurdle like a ghost. I was way faster, but on hurdles his technique was so good that he could beat me jogging the stretch.

[tylerwiegand33111]

HAHA omg what the fuck is caojunhua trying to say?

[AB5309]

cant stop lauging after reading his comment. but give him his due, not bad english for someone who is from china.

[cheetahish]

the second place broke world record too...12.90...competitions shorten improvement time

[Nixxolas]

I'm in Lausanne for Athlétissima, I'm going every year. I'm Swiss.

[caojunhua]

What Liu Xiang run quickly is to should be strong for real strenght, but you only slander he, you run forever at him behind.

[chinngis83]

Um, let me try to paraphrase:

"Liu Xiang runs quickly, and this should be recognized as real strength. But you only slander him, and will always envy him/trail him."

Is that close enough, caojunhua?

[AB5309]

thanks for that. but not bad english as he comes from china. wish i could speak chinesse as well as he speaks english.lol

[chinngis83]

'Twas a pleasure. I know what you mean, though; it's hard to master a Chinese dialect, maybe harder than learning English. Constructing sentences is completely different in most Asian languages, especially because of post-positioning.

[iMPERiOUS]

What?

[chesneychezz]

i am totally shocked by your comments, come on this is about one man breaking records in a race but your comments was about sxxx fxxx. grow up my friend

[bockybalboa]

I've seen him before and figured he would win it eventually. He is actually a half step slower than the rest of the field but he absolutely does not touch the hurdles. Cleanest hurdler I've ever seen.

[Susanilly]

this dude has got all kinds of girls lined up in china! from 2foot nothing to 7footers all lined for this guy! he's gonna get a handfull so he probably wont have time for american girls. and to netbee hahaha "make love with american girl" hahaha 我BS你这个SB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vfredc123]

come on... take it easy on the nationalism here... but Liu Xiang is one of kind... star faced and kicks ass!

[tubevmaster]

Chinese are superior. No doubt about it.

[immagonnarockayoua]

Yup. That's why the Chinese dominate boxing, soccer, formula one racing, golf, and all the other sports in the world. Right?

Don't be a dick. People are equal.

[tubevmaster]

You are right. Thanks.

[maisoncarree]

btw: I AM PROUD OF LIU'S OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE!

[maisoncarree]

what the fuck is your problem? why is "make love with american girl" related to the guy breaking world record? you dumb piece of Chinese shit?

...

sorry about this, but i really cant see the point from your ridiculous nonsense, to be honest, I AM ASHAMED TOO SEE ANOTHER CHINESES TALKING SHIT LIKE THIS?

OK?

SO FUCK OFF!

[renvimm]

I think the person who said "make love with american girl" is not Chinese, why? use your logic, you dumb ass fuck. oh oh, you cant figure it out? ok, i tell you. when a person have sex with another, he gives his DNA to his offspring. when liuxiang have sex with an american girl, he will have an "american baby".

要丢人上百度丢人去,别他妈在这里丢人显眼.

[idarklight]

I'm ashamed thhat you guys are being so rude.

Using your words,

要丢人上百度丢人去,别在这里丢人显眼

[netbee]

make love with american girl

[netbee]

很好

[EeSosepatey]

The Chinese must have some really good steroids factories.

[renvimm]

oh yeah? I think there are way more steroids factories in America.

[EeSosepatey]

OH YEAH?? I know you are but what am I??

Chinese Olympians have an extensive history of systematic Steroid use.
