look at that faggot makin fun of his shoulders, he has like the widest shoulder ever and he also haven't drown himself into hormones like you did faggot
@forstorage no, he gets payed 250 thou - half a million just to make appearences at meets ( which are up to 2 times a week) Not to mention all the endorsement from being the "World's fastest man." If he grew up playing football and had a passion for it, maybe he'd be a little above average.. But truth is - you have to actually be talented at a sport to be good at it.
@jacoby2399 haha i've played football do you tools honestly think football is a sport filled with skill? maybe the football in the eastern hemishpere is but not the one in this video.
@DeLasChivas You don't know what you are talking about. Anyone including Usain Bolt would have fun in the NFL. The caliber of athletes in the NFL is amazing. So please don't comment on something you do not know what you are talking about.
@lbj6mj23 is having a strong arm a skill? thats just raw talent not skill idiot. is being able to run a 4'4 forty skill or athleticism? is being 300+ lbs and blocking someone a skill or athleticism?
learn football throw it and throw it in the right moment and in the right place for what you think the players train all the time?!running routes and playing team offense its not easy to learn football then talk shit about players and also its not all physicly its mentaly to reggie bush is the best example great athleate but not a great football players so stfu
@lbj6mj23 lmfao youre fucken stupid its not hard to run a route is it really hard to run 10 yards and cut? what im saying is any athlete can play in the nfl they may not be very succesful but they can do it. throw a football in a spiral every little kid on their block can do that. and throwing things to the right person is the play callers they just have to go from option 1 to 2 i guess that takes SOME skill. learning a play wow is that supposed to be hard? maybe for retarded fucks it is
@lbj6mj23 throw a spiral to someone thats open ill admit that sounds HARD. study a defense now THATS difficult; most QB's succeed over 60% of the time in reading a defense so it must be difficult. running a route: run 10 yards right expect the ball are you fucken serious thats skill? run a fade jump over the DB that youre 5 inches taller than thats fucken skill? how many athletes in other sports can play football? almost all. how many football players can play other sports? almost none.
@lbj6mj23 why not soccer players getting hit? they push shove get slide tackled get elbowed theyre tough they sprint about 3 miles a game (90 minutes) and their season is longer. why not basketball players mentally? they play in the paint run every second of the game like soccer players. they play over 3 times more games than football players in the same amount of time. you jus cant admit that football players arent as talented as people that play other sports
@mkeets I have to agree with lbj6mj23. No world-football player takes more than three hard hits without decline of body control and speed. NFL targets upper body. Soccer players never use it. Their agility would fade pretty quickly leading to more hits. Average hand-eye coordination is bad in NFL. But balance/leverage skill to start and stop running and change direction is very high. Handball- and rugbyplayers would succed in the NFL and probably Sumo-wrestlers.
@MochaeMoepfli yeah i doubt in the condition they're currently that a soccer player can play in the NFL, but if they trained for it i guarantee that they have the skill set to do it. my point was that NFL players aren't skilled, but they are great athletes. then to say no other athletes are mentally tough enough to play football. that's pretty fucken ridiculous seeing as how linemen quit in the 4th quarter and even in 10+ play drives that take 4 min with rest in between each play.
@mkeets Im sorry but do not give the nfl enough credit. To say a soccer player could simply just train and you gurantee they would be successful in the nfl, is ridiculous aswell. Because it really hasnt happened, some have become kickers and thats about it. Those guys just like rugby players and soccer players have been playing the sport since they were kids, to actually think someone from soccer at anytime could just be a success in the nfl is pretty insulting.
@91gt306 How many undrafted and nobodies in college start in the NFL? Kind of alot. All I'm saying is if you're fast, big, or strong you have a chance. That's not the case in any other professional sport.
@mkeets Yeah you may have a chance, however that doesnt mean you will be a success. Jerry Rice was never the fastest, biggest, most athletic but he had the skills to become the best. And there have plenty of big names to come out of college to be medicore in the nfl. Its takes skill and knowing the game, I highly doubt that Ronaldo could pack on another 20lbs tryout and make an nfl squad and become a pro bowler. If you are not a big fan of the nfl, then you think anyone can do it.
@91gt306 Ok maybe not every soccer player would make it but alot them could; and even more NBA and MLB guys would make it in the NFL. Being 6'2 190ish running your 40 in the 4.5-4.7 range is not being very athletic? Ronaldo probably has better footwork than most of recievers in the league and is probably quicker than most of them. If he wasn't running multiple miles a game I'm sure he could put on some weight. He's about 170 already most recievers are around that weight.
@mkeets Actually running the 40 at that size is considered slow. Most 6'4-6'5 270 linebackers are running that or faster. Id expect him to have great footwork but he needs great hands aswell . Jerry had great hands and knew how to read defensive cornerbacks and safeties, that cant be coached it takes years of experience to be a success in the nfl. But hes an athlete so i guess anything is possible. But I highly doubt he'd be a success in the nfl.
@91gt306 4.5-4.7 range is slow its .1-.3 seconds from the fastest people in the league and probably the fastest 40 times in the world. If thats slow then I'm dumfounded I guess running a 4.4 is no longer special. Great hands do you know how many passes NFL receivers in general complete? The best receivers in the league have catch rates of around 76% the average is in the mid-low 60's. If thats considered having good hands then hell I doubt even a pansy like Ronaldo who probably gets manicures
@91gt306 Will have much trouble developing "good hands". About reading safeties and corners that's more on the QB, if a route is well defended and you get double teamed by the safety that means there's another soft spot in the defense he should attack. If you mean adjusting your route so you go between a linebacker and the safety in a zone I think any person with a brain could figure that out. Especially if it's your job and you're spending countless hours studying films and learning defenses.
@mkeets You dont give the nfl much credit at all. Its not as easy as you make it out to be. Its 2012 (almost) and we still have yet to see anyone from any other sports be successful in the nfl. Theres millions to make in the nfl and most athletes in anytoher sport could simply just go play the sport make tons of money and leave. Its doesnt happen simply because its not as easy as it looks. Its like saying anyone with 2 legs could go on a soccer pitch and be a success, not likely.
@mkeets Justin gaitlin very fast track athlete couldnt do it. A few soccer players were kickers and a couple of afl players were punters. One australian who played rugby league played in the nfl for 2yrs and blew out his knee. Right now im keeping my eye on scott harding, former aussie rules players who is looking to be the first to play a position other then punter. Right now hes not really surpassing anyone but i myself hope hes succeeds.
@91gt306 I give them credit they're tough and athletic all I'm saying is they aren't very skilled. Gatlin wasn't even given a chance to play so that's unfair. The soccer players that kicked probably tried out for kicker and were beyond their days of playing soccer or weren't very good at it. Why would the guys with real skill in MLB and NBA want to go to a lower paying job and have a shorter career? So my statement will never truly be tested cause I doubt anyone would try it.
@mkeets Tons of people think that they arent skilled athletes (mostly europeans) but it i just cant agree with that at all. I do get why you would think that way, watching a game it really looks easy to do the things they do, but trust me it isnt. Gaitlin got a try out but just bringing in guys who dont have much of a background in the sport is very risky. What could someone like him bring to the table that another player who has been playing the sport his whole life doesnt? Other then speed?
@91gt306 I agree they are skilled maybe just not in a things I normally consider skill. Their agility is probably among the best of all athletes and their explosiveness is top notch. Plus I give credit to anyone crazy enough to take the kind of beating they take for how much they get paid.
@mkeets Dont get me wrong. Football/Soccer players are some of the most skilled athletes ive ever seen in any sport. Theres a reason that sport is the most popular all over the world. I have tons of respect for them.
@91gt306 why ask other than speed. wen ur as fast as him and no one can guard u, u dont have 2 make spectacular catches u just have to be able to catch the gimme's which everyone can do
@mkeets But I can understand where you are coming from. So we can just lerave it at that. You believe they arent skilled and I believe they are. We can just agree to disagree. :)
@MrBadballer360 Lol is that a joke? Baseball and soccer players get paid waaaay more than any player in the NFL would even dream of. Even NBA players get paid more. Albert who is fucken 32 just signed a 10 year $254 million which isn't even teh biggest contract in baseball history; any NFL player even get half that in any deal?
@Hansi1220 dude, I understand that in the NFL his quick speed will help in certain positions like wide reciever or maybe running back etc. even then I agree he would need to train for the strength needed in the NFL, maybe agility but his speed would be better used in REAL Football. And he even said when he retires he would love to play for Manchester United. I doubt he's even slightly interested in the NFL
@BoneSaw713 actually no real fooball is the english version, considering it was invented decades ealrier. i agree its a pussy sport compared to american football, but its still football. and think about it, in american football they use their hands , so i dont see why its called football at all
@deLasChivas hes a sprinter, those guys in the oympics can do a few races then they are tired. he would slow down fast in Futbol. He would also slow down in American Football. He trained a built his body for short burst or EXPLOSIONS of SPEED. so that argument all of u had was a waste of internet
When you are running a 40 yard dash you never reach your top speed. That is why the 2nd half of Bolt's time is so much faster. When sprinters run 100 meter dashes they dont reach top speed until 40-50 meters.
bolt is probably slower than the fastest nfl runners. with bolt, his top speed and stamina is fastest but his acceleration isn't as fast. there isn't really any use comparing a 100m dash runner to a 40 yd dash runner.
@gokucrazy22 Two things, you just contradicted yourself by saying Bolt is slower than the fastest NFL players and then said his top speed is fastest. Usain is the fastest man in the world hands down. Proof? He ran the 100 meters(Approx. 109 yards, more than 109 yards) in 9.58 secs. That's approx. 11.42 yards per second average. Chris Johnson ran the 40 yard dash(just under 37 meters) in 4.24 seconds. That's approx. 9.4 yards per second average. That's not even close. No Nfl player is faster.
@jsmasterlubu3 Chris Johnson runs an approximate 10.32 100 meter race. Far from the world's best. Tyson Gay, Asafa Powell, and even others are all far above all NFL players. But in the NFL, speed isn't as important as acceleration. So Chris Johnson(using him because he ran the fastest 40 in electronic timing history) may accelerate faster to his top speed, but it isn't faster than Usain(who is taller so it takes him longer to accelerate but not by much).
@jsmasterlubu3 The real crazy thing is that if Sports Science is correct and Chris Johnson's 4.24 40yd dash would put him ahead of Bolt at the 40 yard mark, that would mean that Bolt ran over 63 meters in less than 5.34 seconds. Now THAT is speed.
if usain played football he may not be so good, because playing football makes you gain alot of muscle mass slowing you down. happened to me for track :/
Bet i could blow out UB..... If his legs were broken.... who the hell am i kidding he'd still blow me out by 10 secs....still an accomplishment in my book.
If he made a successful transition to NFL do u realize how much he would make due to the amount of hype he would potentially generate for the sport.. Can u say Ratings? But the pressure would be on him to deliver though.
@nsn876 what's ur point? Olympics is only about traditions and the "olymnpics games" are hundreds of competitions not only the single event of 100 m dash..how many people would pay to see ONLY this event? Im listenin, TELL ME! But this is perfectly right, why someone should consider interesting 10 sec of linear sprinting where if you dont now the crono u cant distinguish a 10.5 from a 9.5?
Note to ESPN, do sports coverage. If Usain Bolt did an actual NFL tryout, tell us about it. When it comes time to try to be funny, leave it to Comedy Central.
@EGarrett01 When you leave sports-related comedy to Comedy Central, you get single season garbage like Onion Sports Dome and that Norm McDonald show. When it comes to being funny, leave it to the Super Bowl commercials. Even then you're not 100% guaranteed a laugh.
@EGarrett01 whatre you talking about? not only is comedy central not funny a lot of the time, but this (and kenny mayne most of the time) was fuckin funny as hell, i laughed a lot
@BeatTheBeatUp1 dude your so ignorant Usain Bolt is 6"5 how much do you think he weighs??? Hes ripped and has fast feet and me and some of my teamates are skinny and strong, my friend weighs 98 and he smashed a 154 pounder to the ground. Wow just becuase your skinny like Usain Bolt doesn't mean your weak!!!!!
@AlfredoFirebird133 thats what i hate on...ppl think its all about speed if its about only speed in football ALOT OF PPL WOULD BE IN THE NFL.....LOOK AT MICHAEL BENNETT WHO RAN A 4.2 AND HE IOSNT THAT GREAT......I PLAY FOOTBALL IF YOU THINK USAIN BOLTM WOULD DO GOOD IN THE NFL WHICH IS A PRO LEAGUE YOUR DUMB....EVEN IN THE NCAA COLLEGE FOOTBALL HE WOULDNT..THESE FOOTBALL PLAYERS BEEN TRAINING AND PLAYIN THERE FUCKING WHOLE LIFE....AND YOU KNOW DAMN WELL USaIN CANT CATCH...
@AlfredoFirebird133 yea your friend is 98 pounds and run through ppl 154 or whatever but WE ARE TALKIN BOUT THE FUCKIN NFL....USAiN IS GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES BUT WHAT IM SAYIN IS NOT FOOTBALL...AND HE IS RIPPED BUT HE FUCKIN SKINNY...COME ON MAN LOOK AT HIS FUCKIN ARMS HES FUCKIN SKINNY....MOSS IS GOOD BECAUSE HE ACTUALLY KNOWS HOW TO PLAY FOOTBALL AND HE CAN CATCH...BUT MOSS IS AFRIAD TO GET HIT SO EVERYTIME HE CVATCHES HE EITHER FALLS OR GO OUTTA BOUNDS WHY YOU THINK HES NOT A SLOT RECIEVER?
@TheMagicBolt He would play for the Raiders cause it doesn't matter how great of a catcher, jumper, or route runner you are unless you run a 4.3 they ain't draftin ya!
Usain is not the fasttest man on planet when it comes to 40 yard dash, you can see that he's clearly not first one till 50-60 meters when he's running a race
@StrangerCZE thats cuz he doesnt give a fuck about the beginning of the race. haha you really think hed race a 40 yard dash the same way he run 100 meters?? wow smart guy
He is fast, hell is the fastest. However he is a track runner and if he has never played football in a controlled environment then he would know nothing about moving his hips. Track runners train to run in one direction therefore making hip movements would be very difficult. At cornerback he'd get beat easily by a mediocre wideout who can run a very good route. I think his best position would be at wideout therefore he doesn't have to react to others he can run his own route
i wouldn't waste his speed being a receiver. if he has some good ball instincts and more muscle on him, he could be one of the greatest cornerbacks ever. He'd probably jump the routes all the time and grab ints.
@TheSportzBOI your retarded i play football....and he wouldnt be good in THE NFL...HE CANT EVEN CATCH.lol...AND HE WOULD GET BROKEN LIKE A TWIG...HE MIGHT DUST THE CORNERS BUT THATS WHY THERE IS A SAFTEY THATS PLAYS WAY IN THE BACKFIELD..THEY CAN JUST PLAY OVERLOAD ON USAIN.SMDH..NOT ONLY THAT BUT USAIN BOLT ONLY IS THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD BECAUSE HE HAS LONG ASS LEGS....HES NOT THE QUICKEST...YOU NEED QUICK FEET IN THE NFL!
@BullshitsMike USAIN IS THE FUCKIN MAN...BUT HE SHOULD JUST STICK TO HIS SPORT AND DO WHAT HE DO BEST...BUT IN FOOTBALL ITS HARD TO EVEN GET TO YOUR TOP SPEED FIRST YOU GOTTA GET PAST 11 people
@BeatTheBeatUp1 randy moss one of the best receivers to ever play in the nfl is 6'4 and 210 lbs, and usain is 6'5 and 207..not much of a difference. todd pinkston was 6'3 and only 167 pounds when he was drafted to the nfl, desean jackson only 5-10 and 175 pounds and he is currently one of the best receivers in the league
@tyuioqwerty ITS BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY KNOW HOW TO PLAY AND THEY BEEN TRAINING THERE WHOLE LIFES THERE PROS AT WHAT THEY DO FOR A REASON..BUT WHAT PPL ON HERE IS SAYING IS USAIN BOLT CAN JUST MAKE THE NFL WITHOUT TRAINING AND THATS JUST DUMB......ITS LIKE SAYING RANDY MOSS CAN GO IN TO A 100 YARD DASH AND TAKE FIRST PLACE OVER USAIN BOLT.....
@foxgo666 he's about 6ft 4 and about 210 lbs, he has the size and the speed, he's the fastest man on the plannet, how could he not be the fastest guy in the NFL?
I wish they did a serious segment where he actually worked out with Eli and ran some routes, this had potential to be cool as hell and interesting, but they have this douche Kenny Mayne with his extremely corny jokes and hairline behind his ears,
@supahdupahguy81 He won't play because he isnt good enough and he would be destroyed on his first play. I love how you Football haters search the internet for videos to hate on. LOL. Obviously you have some interest in Football, but you ignorance makes you write stupid comments like hat lol
he's just not very fast

@Hansi1220 dude, I understand that in the NFL his quick speed will help in certain positions like wide reciever or maybe running back etc. even then I agree he would need to train for the strength needed in the NFL, maybe agility but his speed would be better used in REAL Football. And he even said when he retires he would love to play for Manchester United. I doubt he's even slightly interested in the NFL

When you are running a 40 yard dash you never reach your top speed. That is why the 2nd half of Bolt's time is so much faster. When sprinters run 100 meter dashes they dont reach top speed until 40-50 meters.

bolt is probably slower than the fastest nfl runners. with bolt, his top speed and stamina is fastest but his acceleration isn't as fast. there isn't really any use comparing a 100m dash runner to a 40 yd dash runner.
gokucrazy22 6 months ago
@gokucrazy22 Two things, you just contradicted yourself by saying Bolt is slower than the fastest NFL players and then said his top speed is fastest. Usain is the fastest man in the world hands down. Proof? He ran the 100 meters(Approx. 109 yards, more than 109 yards) in 9.58 secs. That's approx. 11.42 yards per second average. Chris Johnson ran the 40 yard dash(just under 37 meters) in 4.24 seconds. That's approx. 9.4 yards per second average. That's not even close. No Nfl player is faster.
jsmasterlubu3 6 months ago
@jsmasterlubu3 Chris Johnson runs an approximate 10.32 100 meter race. Far from the world's best. Tyson Gay, Asafa Powell, and even others are all far above all NFL players. But in the NFL, speed isn't as important as acceleration. So Chris Johnson(using him because he ran the fastest 40 in electronic timing history) may accelerate faster to his top speed, but it isn't faster than Usain(who is taller so it takes him longer to accelerate but not by much).
jsmasterlubu3 6 months ago
@jsmasterlubu3 The real crazy thing is that if Sports Science is correct and Chris Johnson's 4.24 40yd dash would put him ahead of Bolt at the 40 yard mark, that would mean that Bolt ran over 63 meters in less than 5.34 seconds. Now THAT is speed.

BeatTheBeatUp1 10 months ago
He is fast, hell is the fastest. However he is a track runner and if he has never played football in a controlled environment then he would know nothing about moving his hips. Track runners train to run in one direction therefore making hip movements would be very difficult. At cornerback he'd get beat easily by a mediocre wideout who can run a very good route. I think his best position would be at wideout therefore he doesn't have to react to others he can run his own route
mistereverything 10 months ago
i wouldn't waste his speed being a receiver. if he has some good ball instincts and more muscle on him, he could be one of the greatest cornerbacks ever. He'd probably jump the routes all the time and grab ints.

Sprinters need acceleration and speed to win a race. You need to start fast. He did it the best in the race and he won.
However, he probably would be broken, and he might not be so fast with pads on.
