The youngest Usain Bolt Fan

[ramesh]

The first thing 3 1/2-year-old A.J. Edwards of Brampton does in the morning is watch replays of Usain Bolt's heroics from the Beijing Olympics. It's also the last thing he does before getting tucked in at night.

Forget cartoons. This kid only has eyes for Jamaica's incredible sprint king. The teachers at his daycare are used to Edwards regularly breaking out in the now-famous Bolt victory pose.

"He walks around and he tells everybody, `Usain Bolt, fastest man in the world!'" said his mother, Adrea Smith. "It's kind of like Bolt is his icon. ... Just put it this way, he's mesmerized by Bolt."

Bolt said all he wants to do is become a Legend... so he wants to win everything he can while he still can. Dude clocked in at 10s yesterday in Canada but the race clock had stopped at 9.2....lol. They had to correct it. He was paid $6000Ca per stride and made 41 strides. Probably why he only ran 10...lol. And you see Crawford trying his best again to beat Bolt...sprinting his heart out...and Bolt jogging to victory. LOL! Thats messed up!

Bolt has insurance companies running scared of him before yesterdays race, none of them would make a bet against him.

Dem smart..

"Insurance
No one will bet against the lightning Bolt

"...Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt, 22, was the star attraction of an eight-man field for the 100-metre race. Promoter Geoff Arnoldi planned to offer a $1-million prize to Mr. Bolt or anyone else who beat the world record of 9.69 seconds set by the star at the Beijing Olympics.

Such prizes are typically easy to insure with Lloyd's of London, or others. But no one would bet against Mr. Bolt.

"What Bolt did at the Olympics, when he held up his arms in celebration and still set the record, that terrified any potential insurer," Mr. Arnoldi said. Companies asked for track conditions, weather reports, details on Mr. Bolt's training regime - and "then they all just said no way."
