      @@doloresramirez5683 a false start isn’t intentional because of the current rule. But if changed to a warning many people will false start simply because they want to get a perfect start by anticipating when the gun goes off.
      Precisely why they changed the rules in the first place. The athletes weren’t reacting to the gun. They were reacting to the anticipation of the sound of the gun. And false starts can throw people off their game. Especially the really nervous or pressured ones.

    Isn't there a world class men's hi-hurdler who naturally sways enough to set off the false start alarms in the starting blocks? I've watched races with him in it, no false starts noticed, but just the way he sways a little bit while in the "set" position gets him flagged quite often. They usually let him continue, just keep someone's eyes focused directly on him to make sure he doesn't jump the starting gun.

    Come to think of it, the severity of false start DQs may have robbed the sport of a 4th sub 9.70 from Usain Bolt. He was undoubtedly in supreme shape in 2011 and the ease with which he won the semis and other heats suggested he was probably as fit as he was in 2008 and 2009. Although, Blake only won in 9.92 so maybe the conditions weren’t conducive to very fast times.

    First of all the crowd has NOTHING to do with it. As an ex athlete in both track and football the crowd is generally drowned out during performance. And there is NO WAY that a crowd full of people (athlete or not) reacts before you and makes you react. It’s literally impossible as a professional sprinter. But I’d give her the return based on the other girl’s flinch for sure.

    While I respect Tobi Amusan as an athlete and appreciate her dedication to her sport, I must express my disappointment regarding the false start incident. It's understandable that athletes may encounter distractions during competitions, such as noise from the background. However, in such situations, it's important for athletes to maintain composure and handle the circumstances professionally.
    In this case, when faced with the noisy background, there were established protocols that could have been followed. Amusan could have signaled to the officials about the disturbance, allowing them to address the issue and potentially restart the race. By not taking this course of action, it raises questions about the adherence to the rules and the fairness of the competition for all athletes involved.
    Maintaining the integrity of the sport is paramount, especially in regions where athletes may face additional challenges or biases. It's crucial for athletes to take responsibility for their actions and acknowledge any mistakes made. This not only upholds the professionalism of the sport but also sets a positive example for others, promoting fairness and sportsmanship.
    While I remain a supporter of Tobi Amusan and her endeavors, I believe it's important to address instances where errors are made and strive for improvement. Constructive criticism and accountability are essential aspects of growth, both as individuals and within the sporting community.

He seemed to have been derailed from commenting on the issue; all these factors lining up to provide a less than convincing picture to viewers. The marketing power of elite athletes may become the bane the industry's rule of law; this is especially true for developing states.
