Olympics 10

Is it me or are we suffering from massive exaggeration?

Usain Bolt, the Jamaican sprinter, won the 200 metres sprint for men. As he did so he knocked 0.02 seconds off the existing world record. That's two HUNDREDTHS of a second.

Admittedly Bolt was many metres ahead of the rest of the field but given that the existing record was 12 years old is this such an astonishing feat?

I don't think so!!
