Usain Bolt runs fastest Combine 40 for fun

I suspect that is a complete scam.

1. He slows down at the end since the fan experience or whatever they call it does not have enough room.

2. He is in long pants.

3. He does not run a straight line.

4. He just happens to exactly tie the best electronically times out to the 100th of a second time ever run at the combine.

So he does not run a 100th of a second or two faster and he does not run a 100th of a second or two slower, he runs exactly the fastest time ever. Sure looks like a set up paid personal appearance to me.

According to CelebrityNetWorth, Bolt is worth around $60m. All without getting hit day-in and day-out. I'd say he made a good choice.

No big deal at all. Just a casual trot for Bolt.

The interesting thing is, he's not a great starter and normally whooped everyone after 40 meters.

He also didn't run a straight line, he was weaving a bit.

I wonder if they have ever took the record 60 meter time and saw what the time was for the leader at the 40 yard spot and adjusted it for the reaction time to the gun. That would probably give you the fastest 40 yard time ever ran.

Edit: Christian Coleman the 60 meter world record holder ran a 4.12 40 yard dash supposedly.

How does one become worth 60m by running races that no one ever watches?

I think if he prepped and did it at the Combine with the others where he was actually trying he could definitely get a sub-4.
