Bolt 9.69 and the New Limits of Human Performance

@pierrejean

From the 3 video views i have for the 30m i was able to come up with 3.77 for Thompson and 3.78 for Bolt (i drew a orange line on the 30m markers which were not visible enough on the low resolution for these pictures). Note that paralax issue is upmost important on those intermediate time analysis, i only post data when i can get several views of the race, and front pictures can me really misleading.

I stand corrected about place at 30 but the time was the same as I figured at 3.78 vs 3.80 for Ben in both Rome and Seoul.
Even though Thompson has a slight advantage at the torso, more of Bolt’s body appears to be in there and he has a straighter body angle.
