Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, didn’t hardly have to try to win his first heat in the 100-meter on Saturday.

Bolt didn’t even make an effort to get ahead of the field in this one. In fact, it could be argued he was like a Killer Whale toying with his prey as he lurked behind the leaders only to finally kick his long legs into action at the last moment.
As he neared the finish line, he glanced over at Andrew Fisher of Bahrain, who had been busting his butt to win the heat, as if to say, “You really thought you had a chance?”
In other news, former NFL player Jhavid Best finished seventh in the heat with a time of 10.39. He unfortunately did not advance into the next round.
