DQ...before 'get set' signal.....

  • at 30-40 sec (2nd start)

Audience was flabbergasted…
Do you know the reason

Why? Hands over the line?

Was there even a false start the 1st time?
The started pulled the trigger twice on the gun in such quick succession, no way they could have seen anyone that quickly - it doesnt look like anyone did either

2nd time - possibly taking too long to be steady. He looked to be moving his head around a bit. surprised he was dq though

The DQ’d runner doesn’t protest with the starters, he goes to the two guys with clipboards. I’m wondering if it was a DQ for something not relating to the start? The video also seems to be missing a time period from the double gun to when he’s walking off the track.

movie is missing time period because of some editing

1st start was false…SURE…
2nd no start signal was given…

Clipboard guy is referee…

LOS is right though. Is it that obvious.

I suspect it might be a draw issue that they picked up late. The athlete might be in the wrong race or reported for a final that he was not suppose to run in. I guess.
