Just another reminder that 6' 5' Bolt's 1st 30m was nowhere near as bad as ppl used to dramatically make it out to be! A little greedy to wish he ran a couple more sub 9.7s in his career? :)
I also think part of his speed was that he struck the ground with so much more force than everyone else in each stride while still having a fast stride frequency, something so other athletes his height have
Analysis: Noah Lyles best 60m is 6.43 Best final 40m is 3.34 (-0.3) So adding them together his *perfect* race in normal conditions (0.0 wind) would be 6.43 + 3.33 = 9.76. 0.0 wind: 9.76 +1.0 wind: 9.72! +2.0 wind: 9.68?!!?! Kishane Thompson's best 60m split is 6.36 (+0.9) Best final 40 split 3.38 (+1.0) So adding them together his *perfect* race in normal conditions would be 6.38 + 3.40 = 9.78 0.0 wind: 9.78 +1.0 wind: 9.74! +2.0 wind: 9.70!?!? Usain Bolt's best, 9.58 (+0.9) at different wind: 0.0 wind: 9.62 +1.0 wind: 9.58 +2.0 wind: 9.54!!!!
Obviously Kishane could take between ~ 02-.06 from his closing time and probably the same on top of that if he continues improving at a similar rate to his past 3 years.
Poor Tyson, he was 2nd to Bolt in this 9.72 race, then injured for the Olympics (if he wasn't injured I think Bolt would have had less opportunity to slow down during the 9.69 run), then by 2009 he ran fast enough (9.71) where he could have won the previous 9.72 race, but Bolt runs an otherworldly 9.58. A prime Tyson in today's era would be crushing.
@Jordan27893 kinda deserved glaze but it should be saved for videos ABOUT Usain Bolt, but nowadays it's just used to dismiss current athletes' achievements so I get where ur talking about
Well looking at the stats, not really since in the world champs last year his split 6.45, 3.38. So now that he's splitting 6.44, 3.35 it doesn't look like it
@@StickIQbro, I've been looking for splits for a long time and I find it difficult to find them. Aside the olympic website, where donuou get the splits from bro? I'd like to see the US trials splits
@@StickIQ hes stuck at 9.79 overall though for him to get a 3.27m 40m split its likely his first 60m will be slower than the others where he got 3.35 or 3,38
@username.exenotfound2943but the thing is since he was pressured to start better in the Olympic final and he didn’t he won’t run his final 40 as relaxed as he wants to. Despite that he still tied his close from the semi final. If anything if Noah gets a good start which leads him into the 6.3s, he’ll know FOR SURE he can finish through with zero pressure at all which could lead to him staying relaxed and closing faster
Gout Gout is the only one I see challenging Bolt at the moment. Might be a few years, but their similarities in style, balance and observed ease at top speed are clear.
The splits are great - the difference between them and Bolt … Bolt only ran all out in a championship final 100m maybe twice while at his peak . These guys are going hard , head to head and are barely reaching his greatest times .
I may not be a Noah fan but if he can perfect his 60m start, he'll be deadly this year. He already has the best closing speed of all the current athlete
Gout gout is the first athlete i have seen run that actually resembles Bolts form. His stature and the ease of his top end stride are extremely simar to Bolt and at such a young age. If he stays healthy i camt see him not becoming the #1 threat to breaking his world records. As his body matures he will continue to drop his times and maybe one day achieve that which few believe can be done, overcoming bolt
I believe the tracks help and the shoes for faster racing. Is this a fact? I will never denigrate the athletes for their achievements and admire their dedication.
I think the strangest thing is the bizarre narrative that Noah has and will continue to materially improve in the 100m when he ran 9.86 six years ago in a random one off race with zero specific work for it....He has improved his start a little to enable low 9.8 and his 9.79 but his top speed has never moved at all so he's not going faster on a like for like unless he runs with large winds at altitude, which of course is then not like for like...
I'm in my 30's and the only way I'm realistically seeing a real human running a faster 100m than 9.58 is if the Enhanced Games becomes a thing or if the Olympic Committee allows radical improvements to spike technology like the Viperfly.
That’s Cap. Usain Bolt is the one that had the Craziest Close in the History of Sport. King Noah Lyles is *ONE* of the athletes with the Craziest close. But NOT the one.
@@LscottGD That’s also cap in the 200m. The Craziest close in the 100m Straightaway in the 200m is Yohan Blake. 9.12 in his 19.26 race in 2011 King Noah Lyles is *ONE* of the athletes with the Craziest close in the 200m (9.24 in his 19.31 in 2022). But NOT the one.
But yet Simbine, Fraser Pryce, Ta Lou Smith, Johnson and many other athletes have improved in their PBs latter in their careers into their late twenties to early thirties. As long as an athlete is healthy and running solid fast times, they're capable of improving.
Lyles will never break 9.70. KT and LT are the only current sprinters who could possibly go sub 9.70, and they could only do it if they ran on a super fast track with a 1.0+ m/s tailwind.
I liked the concept of this video, but I really wish you talked more about Akani Simbine. I know you already made a video about him last month, but he was the only one to split a 0.81 100m split in the olympics and yes the smaller splits aren't as accurate but that's still faster than any 10m split from Noah that I'm aware of. He along with Kishane could be the only athletes that can match Noah's close (maybe add Fred, Oblique, and Letsile to the conversation but unlikely) and the execution of this video just shows American bias for the most part.
Why do you need him to talk about Akani simbine more? We all know he is a perpetual 4th place finisher. And why is a 10m split worthy of a video? That just shows he can’t maintain his top speed long enough to get top 3. And an American channel showing American bias for the most part? Imagine the horror. I assume you go to non American channels and say the same thing right? Do they care about what you think? If no…then why should this channel? By the way of the many channels talking about track and field he’s one of the least bias considering he actually give other athletes like simbine their own video that celebrates them instead of critiquing them.
@@kc5466 If we're talking about good splits and "breaking" the event then a fast 10m split is no exception. It's also easier to build speed maintenance off top speed than the other way around and my point with that is he also has the potential to get a good 40m split. The point of calling out American bias is that this channel is one of, if not the biggest track and field news sources and aims to be unbiased. Yes, opinions and national pride are fine, but let's not act like Americans aren't the most covered for this sport. Other channels talking about their own less popular country isn't the same as Americans reinforcing themselves over again. Yes, it's cool Akani Simbine got his own video, but me recommending other athletes to not just be in their own separate video but have more involvement in other videos isn't really unreasonable criticism. I'm sure he wants to improve his content, and I'm not hating on him. Most of my comments on this channel are positive, and even this comment isn't intended to be negative, just a criticism of him covering Noah in a topic other athletes could also be a big subject in the video of.
@@jaden5493 and by the way the last 6 months Ingebritsen has dominated this channel. Probably the most covered of any single athlete on this channel. And guess what? Ingebritsen ain’t American. Not to mention in the last few months gout gout got more videos than Noah Lyles. And just because Noah Lyles was mentioned in a video doesn’t make it a video about Noah. So what exactly is the quota you’re asking for? For every one video about an American athlete there must be 5 about non Americans athletes? SMH.
"......Heralded quite possibly THE most dominant athlete in the entire Beijing Olympics....." Sighs..... While I agree that Bolt's performance in Beijing was one of the most dominant in Olympic history, you're forgetting there was a guy who won 8 golds and set 7 world records in Beijing. IDK why you would think 3 golds with 3 WRs (2 individual) is more dominant than 8 golds with 7 WRs (5 individual golds, 4 Individual WRs) So no, not "quite possibly THE most dominant" not at all. Not even at the same Olympics.
Close open, close open. Are you a baby? Who cares about these if they can't get close to the record after saying it's near? Kishane has the highest chance in the 100 for the top 2 because he's tall; all the small runners have no chance at all.
If adjusted to the same wind of the 2012 Olympic 100m Final, Noah Lyles’ London Diamond League performance would have gotten him 2nd place ahead of Yohan Blake
Yeah... no. Yohan Blake: 9.75 (+1.5) -> 9.81 (0.0) Noah Lyles: 9.79 (+1.0) -> 9.84 (0.0) Except you're talking about his London diamond league which yes, he does get second in front of blake since 9.81 (-0.3) -> 9.80 (0.0)
Yea, no bud there’s a reason the 2012 Olympics was the greatest 100m Olympic final ever the top 5 men in the race and 3 of them ran under 9.8 so of course Noah barely scraping 9.79 is more comparable to Gatlins time in the race
Lyles again and again and again???! The reasoning is just hypotheses.. if so, if so, if so can also be done on other sprinters! After all, you could play with start and finish times over 100m for everyone who has faster 100m records than Lyles! E.g. Colman, Kerley, Thompson, Seville…..
Um, actually, I can. I split 50 seconds for my final 10m while my second last 10m was 60 seconds. I ended up with 9 minutes 58 seconds for my 100m dash, which like you said, is sub 10 minutes 💪
@joshuasanimations Didn't look like he had symptoms at the starting line but suddenly he looks like he needs to be intubated after losing and then conveniently well enough to go clubbing soon after.
