Fastest man on earth


The fastest man on earth, Jamaican sprint superstar Usain Bolt claimed yet another world record as he recorded a stunning victory in the 200m final at the World Championships. Bolt demolished his previous record of 19.30, which he set in winning the Olympic gold medal in Beijing and sets a new world record time of 19.19 seconds. The 22-year-old finished well clear of the field, with silver medalist Alonso Edward finishing in 19.81. Wallace Spearmon of the United States took bronze. Bolt, who also smashed the 100m record in Berlin on Sunday, is now the first man to hold the 100 and 200m world and Olympic titles at the same time.
