  • He has great technique. This is what got him the gold. Watch how he leads with his left leg, and his right leg is horizontal as it trails behind, and then he lands without slowing down.

    I really feel sorry for the guy in blue in the 3rd lane. He was 2nd until he hits that penultimate hurdle, which trips him up on the last one and he ends up in last place. Ouch.

  • @MegaCokamo Running (and hurdling) is about efficiency. How efficient your body is in running. He doesn't need anything in his arms, because it would slow him down. His muscles are concentrated in the areas he needs them most; thighs, calfs, stomach. There's a technique to running just like there is to everything else, especially in hurdles. It's efficiency over strength.

  • Can anyone tell me how he could be so skinny but be so good. Im not saying he doesnt have muscle but it looks like he has nothing in his arms.

  • damn they were a third of hurdle behind Liu

  • he was running away from them

  • lol there was a white guy no offense...

  • they were probaly like oh shit an asian beat me! FML
