Jamaican sprint legend Usain Bolt has revealed the secret behind his athletic build and physique that has propelled him to multiple titles and world records.
Former Jamaican sprinter and multiple Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt has recently shared the key role his father's genetics played in his athletic physique that has propelled him to glory on so many stages.
Bolt, who stands a towering 6'5, has credited his dad Wellesley Bolt for hitting the genetic lottery ticket with his height.
In a recent video shared on his X account, the 100m world record holder commended his dad for doing a great job.
"I got it from my dad man. He is 6'3 and I'm 6'5 he did a great job. My mom as well," shared Bolt, referring to his height and frame.
Bolt's towering frame is a regular sight in track and field as the world's fastest man's ever purposeful yet galloping stride has been on display on multiple world stages.
Since his rise to prominence at the age of 15 in the 2002 World Junior Championships in front of a home crowd in Kingston, Jamaica, Bolt's physique has since gone down in history as an anomaly of athletics.
Bolt's career has gone down as legendary, holding the title of world's fastest man ever after his record shattering sprint in Berlin, 2009 that saw him set the 100m world record of 9.58 seconds that still stands.
