    But that driver has to be one total brainless moron for trying to drive a car into a police officer.
    What did he think was going to happen?

    Very true, but I love how the cop is trying to ham it up at the end there. Limping around for the camera. A car driving over your foot is not that painful at all, especially if wearing boots.

    In the past they used a stop watch to time a run, now they have atomic clocks measuring to the closest 1000th of a second.

    Take only those two improvements into consideration and the field will be narrowed dramatically, to the point where it seems that there has been no improvement in athletes in general.

    Usain Bolt is Usain Bolt, no denying that, but the rest seems quite similar.

    I dont think that it would be that much narrower to be honest. Timing with a stop watch can go for you as often as against you. The main reason is training, the others fall behind on that.

    You just have to look at 2 factors. First off, the bodies of today's sprinters compared to the ones of yesteryear. Second, decades ago, it was a car salesman that simply happened to be a fast sprinter and got into the team, sure he practiced, but he didn't train. People could only start truly training at anything, once sponsorships came around. Where your entire job could be sprinting, that didn't happen until at least the 80's and even then they most likely did not train full time.

    Track surfaces, footwear and clothing probably shaved a few 10ths off of modern times, training first, and then nutrition is owed the rest though.

    Its also genetics,since we seeing a lot of sprinters from Jamaica and long distance runners from Kenya/Ethiopia.Bolts muscle defintion now compared to athletes 30 years ago is astonishing.

    There are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those who don't.
