  • He ran like a cheetah, jumped like a horse, flew like a bird, landed like a cat, jumped out of the pit like a kangaroo, bounced around like a penguin and when the record came, he fell to ground like a human! First time ever seeing the video. Amazing!

  • when he's doin' his funny wee run back everyone's like " WTF? its like he's just broken a bloody record!!"

    You are gay.

  • what 2 short-sighted clowns dislikes this?! Leg-end. Job done.

  • he be blazin'

  • @ky93le look at his last two steps....extremely fast which is one of the most if not THE most important part about the jump you can be blazing fat down the runway and have a bad penultimate step and it will hurt the jump tremendously.

  • Such an outstanding feat, I doubt we'll see another quite as incredible. Awesome is an overused word, but it's appropriate here.

  • @nonamechannel Brilliant comment, one of the best I've seen on here.

  • his cadence in his last 6-8 strides looks as if he slowed down. mighty jump nonetheless

  • omg! this was the day my mom was born!!

  • wow !!!

    

  • This is what track athletes used to look like before drugs.
